Portland architect Peter Wilcox,
received hard knocks last year from
officials for his criticism o f the medi­
an, but he is on the drawing board
again, this time he wants to present a
model for study.
The last time the issue was studied
was in 1992, when the city found
improvements in the carrying capac­
ity of the boulevard had occurred
with the installation of the median,
the limitation on left turns and the
removal o f on street parking.
The entire median project was built
in 1979 at the total cost o f $7 8
million.
Omega PSI PHI Donates Food Baskets
In December, the Brothers of the
Omega Psi Phi fraternity passed
out food baskets for Christmas.
Bros. Jerome Mouton and Kenny
Adair of the Zeta Nu Chapter orga­
nized the food basket drive. There
was a total o f 3 1 baskets given out
to needy families. The families
ranged from low-income, large fam­
ilies with kids, to senior citizens.
Food donations from Fred Meyers
Inc. and E&M market, and cash
donations from many private indi­
viduals helped to make this the
most successful food basket drive
“ever” for the Zeta Nu Chapter. The
Bros, of Zeta Nu also made substan­

Four high school students will
spend five days in Belize this July
discovering the wonders o f the
world’s rain forests.
Pacific Power is sponsoring a con­
test to send four high school students
to Belize, a small country in Central
America. The students will attend a
Tropical Forest Ecology Course to
gain an understanding of the impor­
tance and the vital functions tropical
rain forests play in the local, regional
and global environment.
Students will also learn numerous
ways to protect the earth’s valuable
ecosystems; gain an understanding
of Belize and its culture; learn about
ancient Mayan civilization; and ob­
serve the complexity of species in­
teraction within tropical forests.
According to the company’s local
manager, Sheila Holden, the contest
is a natural extension of the compa­
ny’s real work in Belize. Last No­
vember Pacific Power joined forces
in an unprecedented international
effort to help reduce greenhouse gas
emissions and protect 120,000 acres
of tropical rain forests in Belize.
"Through domestic tree planting,
and now the purchase o f rain forest
acreage in Belize, the company is
testing strategies to address carbon
dioxide emissions,,” Holden said.
"The company believes that solu­
tions to environmental challenges will
be based on sound scientific research.
Because of that, we are pleased to
sponsor the Bound for Belize’ con­
test to encourage students to search
for solutions to our environmental
problems.”
Students will be selected based on
several criteria, including an essay
competition and a demonstrated in­
terest in the environment either
through school course work, lifestyle
contained a Turkey, vegetables,
fruits, potatoes, rolls, and cake mix­
es.
The families who received the
food baskets were located in the
north, northeast, and southeast ares.
All the families who received a bas­
ket were deeply appreciative of the
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity’s efforts.
This was the eighth consecutive year
that the Bros, of the Zeta Nu Chap­
ter would like to thank all of those
grocers and individuals for their
generous donations during the
Christmas season.
