Beating the train time
by an hour and a half, A.
K. Parker and family drove
from Portland to Enterprise
in 17.5 hours. They took
breakfast in the Dalles and
then dinner in Arlington and
supper in La Grande. Along
the Columbia river the high-
way was heavy, for the rough
gravel refuses to pack in the
dry heat of that region.
Charles Litch had an
unusual experience on the
curve near Wayne Wade’s
home Sunday night. Travel-
ing at a good rate of speed,
he found the road before him
blocked by a bunch of Angus
bulls. Seven were laying on
the surfaced highway and the
eighth stood in the middle of
the group. The car plowed
into them, doing much dam-
age to bulls and car alike.
