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?"

project include Raymond Williams,

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.
Applications and final selections
for these two projects will be
considered separately by the New
Beaverton Library Art Selection
Committee. Members include: Linda
Adlard, Mayor Rob Drake's Chief of
Staff; Robert Becker, Library
Advisory Board; Cameron Dutz,
Beaverton Arts Commission Board;
Shirley George, Beaverton City
Library Director; Thomas Hacker,
Architect; Doug Macy, Landscape
Architect; Jim McCreight, Beaverton
Arts Foundation Board and three
frofessional artists.
'rojectl

characteristics of the building
and site
maintenance and safety issues
The budget for Project I will not
exceed $165,000.
