AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER
Neighborhood firm finishes test work on
air-to-air heat exchanger
JAMES L . WILLIAMS
The Albina W alters, W aitress
es and Bartenders A ssoclation
decided to use their depth of
knowledge, influence and life
time of experience in trying to
understand, give guidance and
a helping hand to the young.
T his is the least we can do,

Albina W allers, Waitresse s
and Bartenders Association of
Portland has put together an
a ffa ir tliat we think w ill be of
great Interest to the City
of
Portland. Its called, BlackEn
terprise Week, and w ill focus
attention on what Black B usi
nesses have to offer.
The Black Enterprise Wee k
w ill kick off Sunday,May 23,19
71, at the Sheraton Hotel with
a social hour starting at 5:00
p.m., followed at 6:00p.m. by
a delightful Soul Food Dinner.
The Black Enterprise Week
w ill close out Friday,M ay 28,
with a Cocktail I )ance at the
Town Hall.
The Associations members,
as their name suggests, are
working people in the Albina
and outlying areas who find it
d iffic u lt to say that the youth
have droppe<l out. I hey prefer
to say that youth was never in.
The realities of life to some A.
W.W. & B. members came ear
ly— to some, late. Heartache,
disenchantment, accomplish
ment and success are all en
twined into this close knit
group, field taut by the i r
strength and awareness of I lie
and the pitfalls soever present
n u v a a x ia
passages between the plates.
The resultant product is, the
oretically, a perfect heat ex
changer since it operates on a
counterflow basis that could ap
proach 100 per cent efficiencies
if ca rried to e xtre me s of 1 ength

Test work has been completed
by a Portland firm on a new a ir
to a ir heat exchanger that prom
ises to have a significant effect
on the heating and a ir condition
ing field.
According to W .J . D a r m ,
president of A llied A ir Products
C o , performance of the new
product has more than equaled
expectations and within the next
90 days a marketing program
should he completed in all of
the western states. Expans Ion to
nationwide
distribution is ex
pected lefore the end of the
year.
Essentially
the
Temp-X
Changer, as the product
is
named consists of a series
of
many closely spaced, corrug
ated, aluminum sheets tightly
sealed at the edges and inter
connected at the ends in such a
way that separate a ir streams
can be made to flow in opposite
directions through
adjacent

Northwest
The Portland Observer out
grew its office and printing fa
c ilitie s at 714 1/2 NE Aiberta
and moved to 2726 NE Union
a n d presently at 2201 N.
Kiilingsworth, Lee Henderson
announced. It is o fp a rticu la r
significance, Henderson noted
that the growth of The Portland
Observer has excellerated
faster
than highest expec -
tations. What is p a rticularly
satisfying is that both our
readers and advertisers have
given us the kinds of support
to make this new expansion
possible, Henderson said, the
new quarters although located
out of the Model Neighborhood
w ill s till reflect the interests
of Model C ities residents. The
move to the new location came
about only after an exhaustive
effort to locate in the Model
C ities area. We had to have
a large building at a price we
could pay, Henderson said.
The new location w ill allow us
to install our own press; the
only black press in the region,
he explained.
An added incentive fo r the
move was numerous equip
ment donated. With the press
and other additional equip
ment Henderson plans to maxe
T h e Portland Observer a
training experience fo r Model
C ities residents.
There are already
seven
people employed by the Obser
ver with the number expected
to reach 25. Right now we have
th irty paper boys. We feel
we are helping to let dollars
turn over in the community.
Herderson said, “ I would like
to thank AMA, the membership
of Albina churches fo r their
splendid cooperation.”
Henderson said What is of
great importance to us is to
assure our readers that our
new location w ill provide us
fa cilitie s to provide a better
newspaper. Our editorial and
news policy w ill remain the
same as ever: To serve the
public and perform a public
service fo r all regardless of
race.
We want to abolish some of
the ancient myths that some
people feel and think about
other ethnic-groups. We are
living in a melting pot of many
different racial background.
We
must
live together.
The Portland Observer fir s t
started publication in October
1, 1970
and has received
extensive coverage by local
television stations.
