Party watches eclipse To celebrate the total eclipse of the moon on Saturday evening, May 24th the Kendall Planetarium at 0MS1 will host a Moon Watch Star Party in OMSI's parking lot. Beginning at 7:00 p.m. S atu rd ay evening, te le ­ scopes will be set up in the parking lot by members of the Portland Astronomical Society and the Kendall Planetarium staff. The eclipse schedule is as fol­ lows: Moon enters penum­ bra, 7:59 p.m.; moon enters umbra. 9:00 p.m.; total eclipse begins. 10:03 p.m.; mid eclipse, 10:48 p.m.; to­ tal eclipse ends, 11:33 moon leaves umbra, 12:36 a.m.; moon leaves penumbra, 1:38 a.m. As the moon enters the earth's shadow cone, the moon's color will change to a coppery red. The change in color occures because the white light of the sun is filtered by S. th e' '.earth's atmosphere and only red light is transmitted to the moon in the earth's shadow. The Moon Watch-Star Party is free to the public. A t forty-five minute inter­ vals, the current show in OMSI's Kendall Planetar ium, "Everthing You've A l­ ways Wanted to Know About the Night Sky...But W ere Afraid to Ask," will be presented. There will be a $1.00 admission charge to the Planetarium only. The Moon Watch-Star will start at 7:00 p.m. For further information, call OMSI at 248 5900 B N M M M N M M N N M M M M M ai Record Library A walk through Port land's Rhododendron Gar dens is a great way to celebrate Spring. The Gardens are located at S.E. 28th and Woodstock a t E a s tm or e la n d G o lf Course. A large part of the garden is a four acre island surrounded by C ry s ta l Springs Lake. The Rhodo dendrons and Azaleas pro­ vide masses of color all Spring and early Summer, but the garden is well worth visiting during the entire year for the land scape effects and the in­ teresting specimen plants. R h o d o d e n d ro n s and Azaleas grow particularly »ell in the Pacific North west. Assembled in this seven acre garden are more than two thousand plants representing all the familiar hybrids as well as the less well known species, which vary in size from ground hugging mats to tree like specimens with huge leaves. 1950 ordinance estab lished the Garden as a joint operation by the Portland P ark Bureau and the A m erican Rhododendron Society. The present Gar den is a testimony to the work of many inspired volunteers. Practically all of the plant material has been donated. The Port land Chapter carries on the work and on Saturday mornings you may come across a work party busily planting or transplanting. From the parking lot you will follow a paved path to the so-called "high" bridge over a small ravine. From this bridge you can see on your left the Crystal Springs gushing from the hillside and flowing beneath the bridge. Notice the large leaves of the specie Rhododendrons planted along the banks. To the right below the bridge you can see a planting of new hybrids developed in the Northwest and donated by the Seattle Chapter. There are paths at either end of the bridge leading down to these areas. Following the main path across the bridge and a short distance fu rth e r along, you will come to a junction. The path to the right leads to the Peninsula Garden. If you have time you will want to explore this new section of the Garden. A t the tip end of the peninsula you will find a collection of the native Azalea, Rhododendron Oc cidentalle. These plants have been collected from the Southern Oregon and Northern California roast and include many of the varietal forms of this spe cies. Back at the junction you will find that the main path descends to the long “low" bridge. A t this spot families of Mallard ducks will welcome you. They seem always to be hungry, so you may want to stop and feed them. From the bridge you can see the island garden re la w 93 508 for veterans and inservice personnel who meet certain prerequisites. For example, the exten­ sion is available only to those originally eligible for thirty six months entitle ment. and they must have exhausted it while enrolled in a bachelor or first professional degree pro gram. Officials explained that applicants who have asso­ ciate degrees are eligible for the extension, but not those who have or who are eligible to receive their bachelor or first profes­ sional degree. Nor can an applicant with an associate degree use the extra time legislation prohibiting the expansion of Portland's St. Johns sanitary landfill into Smith la k e was approved 48 6 by the Oregon House. Rep. Jim Chrest. D North P o rtla n d , the measure's principal sponsor, said plans by the City Council to expand the landfill "would destroy what little is left of a truly unique area that should be preserved for the enjoyment of future gener ations." Chrest said enactment of House Bill 3211 would have the effect of shortening the life of the St. Johns landfill to between five and eight years. A 1971 law called for closure of the landfill by 1975. but that law was to earn a second associate degree. A n o th e r re s tric tio n is that persons eligible for education benefits under more than one law may not receive more than forty eight months of training plus an extension to the end of the enrollment period. VA officials also pointed out that applicants who hold graduate degrees may not use the extension for either graduate or under graduate study. In te re s te d e lig ib le per sons are urged to contact the nearest VA office or a nearby veterans service organization. 1954 " of the Willamette Indians regulate reservation fishing Visitors' fishing will be allowed in six areas of the Warm Springs Reservation during 1975, according to regulations issued by the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs. In addition, fishing by non-tribal members will be allowed in areas bordering the reservation. The tribe reserves, through treaty, exclusive right to fish these areas. These areas include por tions of the Deschutes and Metolius Rivers above and below the reservation as well as from the east bank of those two rivers where they border the reserva tion.

Permits can be purchased on the reserva tion or from a number of agents across the state. No tribal permit is needed for area six, the McQuinn Strip. However, persons must have a copy of tribal fishing regulations in their possession. A season's permit, valid in every area except area three, can be purchased for $8 and all areas are open through October 31, 1975. The Confederated Tribes have also issued camping regulations. Because of the increased cost of the tribal recreation program, a fee system for use of campsites has been established. A $1 charge for day use will be charged per vehicle or campsite. The charge for overnight use will be $2 per vehicle or campsite. Designated campgrounds include Indian Park on la k e Simtustus, Blue la k e , D ry Creek and Trout la k e .

Chrest said. “It would also save the nesting grounds of waterfowl and preserve Smith and Hybee lakes for future recreational use." He added the people of North Portland are "willing to put up with it for a few more years if they have some sort of guarantee that the dump is destined to become a park." NAACP features Hill VA announces added benefits T h e V ete ra n s A d m in i­ stration issued a reminder that nine additional months are av ailab le to some veterans and military ser vice personnel who ran out of GI Bill eligibility before receiving their undergrad uate college degrees.

The rock garden area where small grown species and hybrids are planted is to the left along the lake shore.

The path straight ahead curves along the lake shore around the perimeter of the island. You will find the species planted between the path and the lake shore and the hybrids from the path toward the center. Watch for the spectacular group planting of Rh.
