EXCLUSIVE NEWS DISPATCHES WILLAMETTE VALLEY NEWS BY special correspondents Wednesday, august 21, 1935 REUNION OF RICKEY FOLK BIG SUCCESS Rickey Many olo time Rickey residents returned home Sunday for the annual community and home coming picnic which was held at HaRer's Grove. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Horner (Chessie Hunsaker), who have not been in Rickey for 35 years, camo the farthest distance. Their home is in Condon, Or. Mrs. Raslna Aum stutz and her daughter, Mrs. Mel vina Aumstutz Doertler, of Silver ton had been away from Rickey longer than any former residents who returned. Mrs. Doerfler loft Rickey when she was a little first grade girl. Among the other first grade girls at that time was Mrs. M. M. Magee Lillian Harris), past president of the Rickey Community club, and the teacher, at the time Mrs. Doerfler attended Rickey, was Lavina Culver Haurer now of Port land. Picnicking with the Rickey people were members of the 4M club of Macleay and their families, who were also the guests of the Hagcrs. At 1 o'clock lunch was served at a long table centered with glad iolas. Those in charge of table ar rangements were Mrs. A. E. La Branch, Mrs. Robert Fiscus. Mrs. George Hahrt, and Mrs. Ivan Brown. The afternoon was taken up with races and contests and a ball game between teams composed of former and present Rickey residents and the Macleay baseball team. Winners In the races and con tests were: race for boys between 8 and 12, Edward Burton; race for girls between 8 and 12, Dcllora Doerfler; boys cracker race, Calvin Courtnler; girls cracker race, Vir ginia Carothers; egg race for girls, Dellora Doerfler; sack race for boys and girls, August Mahrt; boys three legged race, Orvil Mull and Calvin Courtnier; tug-o-war between the boys and the girls was won by the boys; ladies nail-driving contest, Mrs. Ocorge Mahrt; women's race, Mrs. Waldo Miller; and the coin hunt for children was won by Lloyd Crabb. A number of the prizes for the contests were donated by bus iness firms, R. L.

Flood of Maude's Inn donated a pipe; A. E. La Branch of the Four Corners service station donated two dollars in coins for the coin hunt; and Benson Bakery do nated a cake. The ball game provtrd the largest attraction of tho afternoon. At the end of the fourth inning it looked as if the game would be a walk away for the Macleay team, and that the Rickey team would be merely present with little chance to win the score standing at 1-U in favor of tho Maclacy team. At the beginning of the fifth inning the Rickey team, which had not prac ticed together, but was a pick-up of former and present Rickey resi dents began to rally, and at the end of the game the score stood at 19 to 17 in favor of Macleay. When Virgil Gesner, former pitcher for the Rickey wild-cats, a Rickey team, which several years ago traveled about the county, winning most of its games, replaced Hooper, pitcher, Maclcay's hits numbered few and Rickey's score began to make a showing.

TESTSle AUTO DRIVERS Silverton An interesting and in structive place to spend a half hour Is at the city hall when the exam iners from the operators division of motor vehicles are on the job. Between 25 and 30 applicants for license to operate auto vehicles were considered Tuesday. During the forenoon six renewals made the grade, six making original applica tions were turned down . and two originals were accepted. The reason for the failures to pass was their not having read or stud led the law and had not contem plated the driving test explanations. A few that had sent in their appli cations by mall had made mistakes and these had to be corrected. Conducting the examinations Tuesday were Col. William A. Aird and W. Carr. They strongly advised a careful study of the laws and the--neat pamphlet that is put out by Earl Snell, secretary of state, desig nated as State of Oregon Motor Ve hicle Operator's Manual, which Is secured on request. All license should be signed on the back of the card by the owner. The owner of one car had to havt his lights and brakes repaired before he could secure his license. Revocation of license has been largely for those proven to hav been driving while Intoxicated. The examiners stressed remem bering the change of law in rcpard to the driver on the right having the right of way, since June 12, and insisted that signs be given defi nitely and at the proper time.
