I " frrr7 errrfl rrrvTV ftr) nrmrv Stateatnan News Service , AMITY Opposition to the pro . posed abandonment of Greyhound bus service between McMinnville and Corvailis, a move which would directly affect the Amity area, was voiced this week by the Amity Commercial Club. ' President H. W. Torbet said Fri day that the group favored a re vision -in scheduling of the pres ent route rather than complete cancellation. The present Grey hound route schedule provides for a morning bus south, returning northward in the evening.

A committee has been appoint ed to represent the Commercial Club at a public hearing on the routes abandonment, April 16. Named as delegates were Don Jones, P. E. Meeker, Glen Watts, and S. W. McPherson.
