Father Bertram made a plea: ‘‘1 have heard a great deal of how people at St. Andrew will help you but I ask you to do something. 1 ask that you get this education and then come back to this community and work for the next generation af ter you. We need your help.” The most emotional presentation was given by Sister Kathleen Stupel. “ It is these strengths that 1 wish to emphasize.

Try to get the most out of your experiences. Remember that only you can decide on the path you take. The rest of us can only serve to help you in your efforts. “ As Tunja put, ‘We’ve worked hard this year.’ We have laughed Community concert billed The Black Colleges Committee, a group of people concerned about the welfare of Black Colleges and universities in the United States, will sponsor the second Black Colleges Conference in Portland this fall.

St. Andrew Community School held graduation ceremony for seven smiling, happy and anxious students. It was a family affair. But it were the students who provided the spirit for family. Said Tanya Harris: “ I have changed in many ways this year. I got a better education this year, than I ever had before. I learned to face my problems and solve them. All the teachers at St. Andrew have been helpful, but there is one teacher who I admire very much. Her name is Miss Shephard. We have worked very together and my friend has been a great friend and teacher too.” The main address of the evening was delivered by Nyewusi Askari. He spoke of the need for parents to continue to educate themselves. ‘‘The world we have built is com plex, confusing and oftentimes frightening to our children, there fore, it is necessary for continued in volvement in all aspects of com- munity/City affairs. It is through this process that our understanding of the world we have built, becomes clear and explainable to our children. But we must take all pre cautions that we do not use this knowledge as a negative weapon against them,” he said. Speakers for the evening included Sister Kathleen Stupfel and Father Bertram Griffin. “ I am very proud of you tonight. You shared your thoughts so well and in a poised manner. I want you to know that you, graduates, have many gifts. _C O R P. WEST COAÍ saos N .E . S k id m o re CAN'T MANAGE A HOME AND...A PROFESSION TOO?

There were other highlights: Processional; pledge of allegiance; prayer; a very inspiring song by the Gospel Choir; expressions of gratitude; address to graduates and congregation; tribute to graduates, presentation of diplomas...and the realization that next year, these seven young men and women, will enter high school, and work toward fulfilling their dreams for their future.

Getting Into steam w ithout getting burned. The steamy side of geothermal energy. If you’ve ever soaked in a hot spring or seen a geyser spout, you’re familiar with geothermal en ergy. Oregon has many geothermal sites, particularly in the Cascades. In fact, geothermal resources have been used for years directly for residential, industrial, and commer cial heating purposes in Klamath Falls, Oregon. Geothermal energy can also be used to generate electricity, as it is at The Geysers geothermal project in California lor Pacific Gas & Electric. ,.T Court«-»?.

According to Hollis Dole, former Oregon State geologist, geothermal explo ration technology stands at the same point today as oil ex ploration technology did in the 1920s, but the level of activ ity is increasing at a faster pace. Additionally, the Oregon Alternate Energy Development Commission’s Geothermal Task- force cites the "high cost of financing the inherent risks of geothermal ex ploration and development ’ as a bar rier to resource utilization.’ At current costs, an 8,000 foot well can cost $1 '/i to $2 million dollars to drill. And it still can come up dry. Many geothermal sites are found on federally-owned land; leas ing procedures can involve several time-consuming regulatory steps.
