The railroad attorneys, Dan-

William R. Wright, for
years a driver on the Wallowa
county stages, and commonly
known as “Bill” Wright, died
last Thursday after four days’
illness. He had not been in
good health for several years,
in fact his experience driving
stage in all kinds of weather
was so trying that it probably
weakened him permanently.
Death was ascribed to pneu-
monia.

A touching war scene was
enacted around 10:30 Sat-
urday on Main Street when
Mrs. Robert Zollman, with
her baby son, Gayle, in
her arms, met her son, Pvt.
Mervin W. Zollman, just
home after being liberat-
ed from a German prison
camp ... Pvt. Zollman was
liberated from the Stalag
11 B war prison camp near
Fallingbostel,
Germany,
on April 16. In this camp
were around 600 American
prisoners and 2000 British.
Mervin was taken prisoner
on Jan. 18 near Gamshime,
Germany, when he was
serving in the infantry of
Gen. Patch’s 7th army.

of Lewiston and known to
Joseph residents for many
years as the Jennings hotel,
was sold last week to Ivan
Williamson ... The hotel has
been closed for the past two
years, but will require very
little renovating ... A deal
was consummated in which
Bill McKinley and Frank
McCully became owners
of the Brick garage which
Ab Daisley has owned and
managed for the past 18
years ... The new owners,
already in business in Jo-
seph, will not only manage
the garage but will have a
store adjoining the garage
in which they will handle
farm implements, electrical
appliances and later a car
agency.

Seven members of the Jo-
seph Chamber of Commerce
met yesterday morning with
the Wallowa county court to

ey alloted to the Fair Board
for support of the annual
Chief Joseph Days rodeo.
Spearheading the move for
the Chamber was president,
Murph Blankinship.
G.F. Van Arsdale was

A 13-mile stretch of
road that provides access to
thousands of acres of prime
hunting land in the Hells
Canyon National Recreation
Area has been closed by the
Forest Service, according
to Ed Cole, HCNRA area
ranger. The Lord Flat road,
located along the Oregon
rim of Hells Canyon, cross-
es the wilderness boundary
in several places, the Forest
Service discovered last fall.
Cole estimated the closure
will for all practical purpos-
es render over 10,000 acres
of land inaccessible.
An estimated 35 persons
affiliated with the extremist
environmental movement
Earth First! convened last
weekend for a “training
session” in Hells Canyon,
according to Hells Canyon
National Recreation Area
Ranger Ed Cole.
A 15-year-old girl from
Texas remained hospital-
ized at Wallowa Memorial
Hospital Wednesday more
than a week after being bit
three times by a rattlesnake
in the Imnaha area. Jessica
Murray of La Port, Texas,
received anti-venom medi-
cine after the mishap ... The
serum sometimes causes
adverse reactions, accord-
ing to a hospital nurse, and
the girl is still hospitalized
to monitor for possible re-
actions. Murray was camp-
ing along the Imnaha Riv-
er with a group associated
with Pathfinders when she
reportedly picked up a small
rattlesnake without realiz-
ing it was poisonous.
