A project involving Warm Springs Elementary students during Summer Academy, July 1999, became a fun idea as well as an educational one. Warm Springs Elementary Edu cational Assistant, Kathy Dunten was allowed to pick an area of study for one week and she chose the ocean and ocean currents. Dunten showed the students old glass Japanese fish ing floats she had collected and de cided to have the students write notes -and place them in plastic bottles just to see what would happen. On August 19, Dunten gave five of the bottles td her brother who was returning by ferry to his home in Alaska. He tossed the bottles off the ferry and into the ocean. Another 15 bottles were taken to Sause Brothers Ocean Towing in Coos Bay, on Au gust 16. Kathy's cousin is an office employee. Three of the company's towing tug boats, were used on dif ferent days.. They each took five bottles and dropped them off in the ocean. The first bottle was discovered on August 22. It belonged to student Kenny Hicks. The first discovery came from Mary Chapman in Sattspring Island, British Columbia, Canada. They were on a month long boating trip when they discovered the plastic bottle with the contents perfectly dry. Chapman wrote back requesting information when and where the bottles were put in the water and where others nave been found. "It sounds like a great fun project," Chapman stated on her letter to the Warm Springs students. Kathy said with the bottles returning, the kids have been really excited and plan on putting all the original re turned notes on the school bulletin board so they could keep track of them as they return. Channel 3 TV, a station out of Eureka, California covered the dis covery of another plastic bottle found by third-grader Michelle O'Neil, at Rio Dell Elementary School, in Eu reka. Michelle, found 9-year-old Sun down Hagadorn's bottle while on an off-road vehicle with her brother Drew cruising the beach and enjoy ing the breeze. The note in the bottle read: "Help, Help. We are learning about ocean currents. Please return cards. Thank you." The card inside the bottle included the school ' s return address. Would-be discoverers were asked to include a note listing where and what time they made their discovery. The third bottle belonging to Simeon Kalama, was found October 1, by Dianne Zuleger a Human Resources Assis tant at Yakima Products in Areata, California. Yakima Product employees were participating in a annual community service day, improving bike trails in Redmond Park, and doing general beach clean up. The bottle was found by Dianne Zuleger, a member of the beach clean up crew. Dianne found it on Samona Beach, r a. peninsula of land just north of the entrance to Humboldt Bay in Eureka, Califor nia. Dianne return letter to the stu dents read, "We are happy to re spond. We also have questions for you. Is it a third grade class project, or is it an entire school project? If it's a class project, how many students are in the class? What is the total number of students attending Warm Springs Elementary?" Other students involved in the project include Raymond Williams, Perry Kalama III, Gerald Hoptowit, Roshenda Sargeant, .

Bill and Melinda Gates donate $1 billion in scholarships COCC's Business Development Center offers classes Microsoft Coro. Chairman Bill Gates and his wife are donating $1 billion over" the next 20 years to finance college scholarships for minority students. "It is critical to America's future that we draw from the full range of talent and ability to develop the next generation of leaders," Gates said in a statement issued moments before a news conference at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The gift being made through annual investments of $50 million a year is the couple's largest single philanthropic contribution and one of the largest ever, matching a $1 billion commitment by CNN founder Ted Turner to the United Nations. The Gates Millennium scholarship program, which will begin next fall, will provide assistance to 1,000 students each year. The Gateses' goal is "to provide financial assistance to high achieving minority students who are in severe financial need and otherwise would be excluded from higher education." The program will be administered by the United Negro College Fund with support and participation by the Hispanic Scholarship Fund and American Indian College Fund. The Gates Foundation focuses on programs in global health and education. The scholarships will be in education, engineering, math and science. Eligible students will be required to have a 3.3 grade-point average and be nominated by a teacher or principal. They must also write an essay about their goals, and commit to performing community service. Winners would get enough money to cover tuition, room and board, and other expenses through college and graduate school. They must maintain a 3.0 grade point average. Gates, whose company is the world's largest producerof computer software, has a net worth of more than $90 billion. Last month, the William H. Gates Foundation and the Gates Learning Foundation merged into the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. It is the largest philanthropic foundation in the United States, with assets of more than $17 million, and second-largest in the world, behind the London based Wellcome Trust. At the time the merger was announced, the Gates foundations had spend or committed $707.4 million, including $322. 1 million for global health projects, $300.7 million for education, $54.7 million for programs in the Pacific Northwest and $29.9 million for other philanthropic efforts. The first Gates Foundation was formed in 1997. Until now, the Gateses' largest single donation was $ 100 million for vaccines for children in developing countries.

Artists are invited to apply for participation in Beaverton's largest, most exciting public art project. The project is the results of the much anticipated, new Beaverton City Library, currently underconstruction and scheduled for completion in September 2000. After years of planning and waiting, the high quality library services patrons have come to appreciate, will be provided in an equally high quality facility that will become the most used and most recognized public building in Beaverton. The new Beaverton Library will be enclosed in brick, pre-cast concrete, wood and glass. These materials, which are brought into the interior of the building as well, convey a sense of stability and permanence appropriate to the library's place in the life of the city. The Library will make a strong connection to the site with the broad entry lobby that opens to a large lawn to the south with its historic American Sycamore tree. Inside patrons will enjoy an interior full of natural light, which enters the- space through large windows, a clerestory band and skylights. The skylights are located above tree-form wooden columns which support an intricate "woven" wood ceiling at the primary Reading Room on the library's upper level. Two separate Percent for Art projects (Project I and Project II) are outlined in this prospectus. Artists may apply for one or both. The goal of Project I is to commission a major work of art for the Library's front plaza, perhaps with an associated sculptural piece in the Library's entry lobby. The piece should make a strong connection between the plaza and the inside lobby area. The goal of Project II is to select a major work of two-dimensional art for specific locations inside the library.

The artwork will be of the highest quality and should consider the following: identity and visibility of the new Beaverton City Library the public aspect of the Library characteristics of the building and site maintenance and safety issues The budget for Project I will not exceed $165,000. Application guidelines for Project I: The application should include: 1. Ten 35 mm slides of relevant past work labeled with name, title of work, correct side up indicated and number. 2.
