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. Evans of the Pour
Corners Grocery and om Ryan of
Ryan's Grocery each donated a wa
termelon; Waldo Miller of the Four
Corners barber shop donated two
haircuts, and a shampoo and fin
ger-wave; W. G. 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.
