‘High class’ Kreig Apartments
open on Oak Street in 1925
1915 — 100 years ago
During the past week the
Enterprise, a weekly paper
which has been published
here for the past 18 months,
suspended publication. Editor
J.L. Hutchins made his vale-
dictory in Friday’s issue of
the paper, stating the local
field does not justify three
newspapers. The Enterprise
subscription list has been
transferred to the News and
Glacier and unexpired sub-
scriptions will be divided be-
tween the two papers.

No longer will the tourist be
able to say he didn’t see Mount
Hood because he didn’t know
it was there. The publicity
committee of the Chamber of
Commerce has now posted all
the main roads in this section
with yellow arrows, showing
the way to points in the lower
valley from which good views
of the mountain may be se-
cured.
With the opening to the gen-
eral public of the new Kreig
apartments on Oak Street to-
morrow evening, one of Hood
River’s long felt needs will be
filled. There has always been a
big demand for high-class
apartment houses, and the
few building which could fit
the requirements have long
and extensive waiting lists.
The new Kreig building will
provide 16 apartments, most
of them of three rooms and
bath, with one or two smaller
apartments containing com-
bined living and bedroom.
JUNE 17, 1995: VISION PREPARATION — Lana Edwards, left, and Kris Demchuk, assistants to Hood
River City Planner Cindy Walbridge, festoon City Hall with balloons for Wednesday’s Day of Vison.
Nearly 80 people showed up for the public reception that solicited citizen comments on the shape of
Hood River’s future. Those suggestions will be used for a report due in August.

Jan Kurahara of Central-

Bonneville Dam’s new $1.5
million visitor center became
an official part of the Mid-Co-
lumbia community Sunday at
a dedication sponsored by the
ports of Skamania and Cas-
cade Locks. In addition, the
event kicked off the North Pa-
cific Division, Corps of Engi-
neers, bicentennial obser-
vance. Col. Edwin Townsley,
who heads the division, noted
that as of June 16, the Corps
would have been in existence
200 years.
A second try proved suc-
cessful as the Hood River
County School District’s bud-
get passed Tuesday by a 1,198
to 902 margin. It was a lighter
vote than the May 6 election,
which defeated the original
budget. About 29 percent of
the voters turned out, com-
pared with 36 percent in the
first ballot.
Wednesday night and Thurs-
day Morning. Most of the
early crop will not be harvest-
ed, said Don Clark, district
manager for Stadelman Fruit,
Inc., the valley’s major fruit
Grower. The good news is that
later crops, such as Lamberts,
are still too green to get much
damage from the latest rain-
storm. Lamberts are the main
variety in the Hood River Val-
ley, Clark said.
Hood River’s front door will
get a fresh look while the com-
munity will have a site which
honors military veterans if an
effort to construct a new
downtown park succeeds. Cre-
ation of Second Street Memo-
rial Park is the focus this sum-
mer of a local group seeking
public support and donations.
The park would be located
south of State and Second
streets, adjacent to the town’s
staircase and Horsefeather’s
Restaurant.

One of the best known
members of the Hood River
City Police Department has
stepped — unheralded but not
unappreciated — from the ac-
tive duty roster. Marko, the po-
lice tracking dog, and the pro-
gram that came with him,
were shelved by the city of
Hood River during May, vic-
tims of time and lack of de-
mand.
Hood River’s business map
continues to change. The
Weather Rail Restaurant and
Mariner Store opened June 11
in the Mid-Columbia Maria
and features both indoor and
outdoor seating. Hood River
Windsurfing offers customers
a large stock of sailboarding
equipment, including sails,
boards, suits, personal flota-
tion devices, and accessories.
Bev Matthews, a Missouri
native who moved to Hood
River 35 years ago, has been
working at Bette’s Place since
1978 — and will celebrate her
retirement on June 20 with a
party at the restaurant given
in her honor. “She loves her
customers and her work, and
it shows,” says owner Gay
Jones. “She never complains,
and there’s not a bad thing to
say about her. She will be
missed.”
Horse trailers by the hun-
dreds, filled with hunter and
jumper equine participants
from around the U.S. and
Canada, will turn the upper
valley’s Jensen Mills Meadow
into one of the largest eques-
trian competitions in the
country. The 2005 Hood River
Classic, in its 14th year, is a
benefit event for the Hood
River Memorial Hospital
Foundation.

JUNE 19, 1925: Queen Reta, who is to reign at the Strawberry Fes-
tival at Parkdale on Wednesday, June 24, is a product of the Hood
River Valley, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ambros M. Kelly. She was
chosen for this exalted position by her peers, not only for her beau-
ty and stately bearing, but for her winsome ways and high type of
character, attributes which have endeared her to the community in
which she has spent her life.

when three board members of
School District No. 3 (city

five candidates. The final tal-
lies were: Dr. L.R. Alexander

As a reminder of the meat
situation, the Pine Grove
store, one day last week, dis-
played a bowl of roses in its
large meat counter — but not
a sign of meat of any kind.
A new lookout station, of
modern type, has been built
on the summit of Bald Butte
in the Upper Valley, and is
destined to become one of
the major lookout stations of
the district. District Ranger
Walters states that a very
large area can be covered
from this station, and it will
be important this and com-
ing summers in fire protec-
tion work.

Five major track improve-
ment projects have been start-
ed by Union Pacific Railroad
between Cascade Locks and
Hood River in the Columbia
Gorge. The line changes,
which total almost five miles,
are being made in conjunction
with the 13 miles of four-lane
freeway being constructed by
the Oregon highway depart-
ment.
Building permits in the city
of Hood River during May
were $105,575 — lower than
April’s high mark, but well
above the figure for May a
year ago. There were four res-
idential permits issued.

VERBATIM
Ty Taylor ‘State Fireman’
Tyrone Taylor, a Hood
River fireman for the past
13 years, has been named
as Oregon’s “Fireman of
the Year” for 1975.
Taylor, who grew up in
Hood River and has spent
all of his adult life here, is
the first person from this
area to be named as the
state’s top fireman. The
announcement was made
at a Wednesday night fire-
men’s banquet in Eugene.
Now a paid fireman in
Hood River, Taylor is also
a member of the Hood
River Volunteer Fire De-
partment. In addition, he
is a member of the West
Side Volunteer Fire De-
partment.
His selection was based
not only on the long hours
he has devoted to meet-
ings and training, but
also on his community ac-
tivities. As a West Side
volunteer, Taylor was in-
strumental in converting
a surplus van into a res-
cue truck, among many
other department activi-
ties.
For the Hood River
area, Taylor has taken his
own time to conduct tours
of the department for
youngsters, he has taken
a fire prevention program
to schools, and he is a
lieutenant in charge of
training.
Taylor was the origina-
tor of the Odell to Hood
River mini-marathon,
run on the Fourth of July
each year, and he has
been in charge of the fire-
works display prepara-
tions on the Fourth for
the past two years.
