with glowing red eyes.

The new, less restrictive guidelines for returning
students to their classrooms that Gov. Kate Brown an-
nounced Friday won’t have an immediate effect on Baker
schools.
Superintendent Mark Witty said Monday that the
District will continue with its plan for Baker Middle School
students to attend in-person classes one day a week
beginning Nov. 9. Four separate groups of students will
rotate through the schedule. The remainder of the time,
students will continue their studies at home through com-
prehensive distance learning.
Baker High School also will continue with its plan to
return about 100 at-risk students to in-person classes
Monday through Thursday beginning Nov. 9. Most other
students will continue online studies.
The preschool through sixth-grade classrooms will con-
tinue to operate in person as they have done since Oct. 14.
The District is planning for a possible return to in-
person classes every other day for students in Grades 7-12
after Christmas break, Witty said.

Man arrested for drunken, reckless driving
about 4:30 p.m. Friday
when Deputy Talon Colton,
who was driving south on
Highway 30 near Chandler
Lane, about halfway between
Baker City and Haines, saw
a northbound Toyota Tundra
pickup truck passing mul-
tiple vehicles.
Colton turned around and
pursued the truck, which
Colton estimated exceeded
90 mph at times. Colton lost
sight of the truck near the
intersection of Pocahontas
Road and Anthony Lakes
Highway, about a mile west
of Haines. Colton contin-
ued on the Anthony Lakes
Highway.
Around that time, a
resident called Baker County
Dispatch and reported see-
ing a Toyota Tundra pickup
truck with body damage on
the right side driving past his
home in that area.
Colton saw a truck match-
ing that description and
stopped it at 48540 Foothill
Road. As he was talking to
that driver, a 2000 Toyota
Tundra with body damage on
the right side pulled into the
driveway of that address, ac-
cording to the press release.
Rigsby was the driver of
the second truck, and he told
Colton he knew the deputy
was following him and that
he had purposely driven
away when Colton, who had
turned on his fl ashers, tried
to stop him.
Colton drove Rigsby
to the Baker County Jail,
where a breath sample had
an alcohol concentration
over three times the legal
limit of 0.08, according to the
press release.

that love and affection to her

and great-grandchildren.
Arlene and Don’s home was

Baker City Councilors occasionally winced in disgust as
they heard experts talk about cryptosporidium during a
special meeting on Tuesday.
Crypto is a parasite that can sicken people who drink
water infected with it. People and animals can be affl icted
with such symptoms as diarrhea, dehydration and nausea.
From April 2010 to March 2011, the city submitted 24
water samples to Seattle-based Lab/Cor Inc. for testing.
Although city offi cials have said in the past that crypto
had not been found in the city’s water, three of the 24
samples did detect crypto “oocysts” — the protective shell
around the parasite.
