OUT OF THE PAST Compiled by Hanna Brandt 50 YEARS AGO 100 YEARS AGO Idaho Power Co. announced that it will begin weekend shuttle-bus service to steelhead fishing grounds on the Snake River below Hells Canyon Dam next Saturday for the convenience of anglers. An organizational meeting will be held on Jan, 10, Enter- prise High School to attempt to organize for a series of classes to be held in Wallowa County through an extension program from Blue Mountain Commu- nity College. The classes that will be offered include basic education, bookkeeping, farm law and taxes, typing and busi- ness English. A dinner and get-together for former residents of Wal- lowa County current residents and friends who are in Califor- nia will be Jan. 21 at the Orig- inal Barbecue in Los Angeles. Jan. 4, 1968 Jan. 3, 1918 This shot of the Wallowa Lady Cougars basketball team in action is believed to be from the late ‘90s. It was taken before the Chieftain converted to digital photog- raphy, which makes this an extraordinary shot. To slow the shutter speed sufficient- ly to allow in enough light and not show motion blur is almost miraculous. In addition to the dandeli- ons in bloom in many sunny spots, pansies have come out in sheltered nooks around porches and houses. Mrs. O. L. Harmon gathered enough yesterday for a bouquet to be taken to today’s special meet- ing of the Enterprise Literary Club in the Masonic Hall. The new post office fixtures in Enterprise arrived last week and were set up on Saturday. Additions include 460 new boxes, imitation mahogany and a private office for post- master Ben Weathers. Pamphlets containing the proposed amendment to the charter of the City of Enterprise have been sent by Recorder W. F. Savage to all voters whose names appeared on the rolls at the last town election. The amendment, which will be voted on in the Jan. 8 special election, is being proposed as a preliminary to paving the streets of Enterprise. Chieftain archive photo 25 YEARS AGO Jan. 7, 1993 Snow plows of all sizes were kept busy in Wallowa County last weekend after a winter storm on New Year’s Day dumped the most snow county residents have seen for at least nine years. Blowing snow on Sunday night caused drifts high enough on rural bus routes to give Joseph students an extra day of vacation. A logging project on the west moraine of Wallowa Lake, in which an estimated 240,000 board-feet of timber will be removed and hauled to Boise Cascade’s Joseph saw- mill, began last week. Land- owners with property adjoin- ing the timber sale area say they are shocked and sad- dened by the logging oper- ation, which they feel will adversely affect the character of the moraine. 70 YEARS AGO ELECTRICAL & PLUMBING SUPPLIES ELECTRICAL & WATER SYSTEM CONTRACTOR PUMPS • IRRIGATION HARDWARE• APPLIANCE PARTS Jan. 1, 1948 STAY WARM with 541-426-0320 208 S.
