TURNING BACK THE PAGES
50 YEARS AGO
from the Democrat-Herald
November 26, 1972
Property owners in Hells Canyon along the Oregon-Idaho
border have refused to accept Forest Service appraisals of
their land, placing in jeopardy efforts to preserve 12,000
acres in the canyon. The Wallowa County planning com-
mission has approved the 28.5-acre Salt Creek Ranch
subdivision, and already about eight recreation home lots
have been sold to three individuals.

Baker City expects to spend $15,000 to $20,000 to
replace the heating and ventilation controls at Sam-O Swim
Center.
The work will be done late this year or early in 1998.
The building’s 15-year-old pneumatic system includes
an air compressor that sends air through tubes. Tempera-
ture changes affect the air pressure in the lines, which
causes valves to open or close. The system controls the
temperature of the air in the building and of the water in the
swimming pool.

Baker City councilors are being asked to award a bid for
ultraviolet equipment that will attack a parasite found previ-
ously in the city’s drinking water.

KEATING — Making fresh butter takes some work.
Just ask Clara Jonas.
“We had to shake it really long,” she says.
Clara barely fi nishes her sentence before Ava Mason
chimes in.
“A long, long, long time,” she says.
Clara takes up the story again.
“I kept switching hands — I got so tired.”
Clara and Ava are fi rst graders at Keating Elementary
School, in the Keating Valley about 15 miles northeast of
Baker City.
On Monday, Nov. 22, they and their schoolmates made a
Thanksgiving feast from scratch.
Keating School, with students from preschool to grade 6,
has an enrollment of 25 this year.
Not too long ago, this week of Thanksgiving would see the
school full of children and adults for the annual holiday meal
prepared by the PTO for the students and local residents.
But COVID restrictions affected the community event in
2020, and this year as well.
Instead, Keating staff — Principal Amanda Wilde, teacher
Toni Myers and paraprofessional Debbie Radle — shrunk the
event to just the school, and involved every student in the
preparation of the traditional feast.
“We decided, why not just do it with the kids?” Wilde said.
But “shrunk” doesn’t mean “small” — the turkey, donated
by a neighbor, weighed 30 pounds and had to be split
between two roasters.
“We have such an invested community,” Wilde said.
The meal preparation was divided between grades:
• Kindergarten: corn
• First: rolls
• Second: gravy
• Third: pumpkin pie
• Fifth: stuffi ng
• Sixth: mashed potatoes
(The school doesn’t have any fourth graders this year.)
Everyone, regardless of grade, was involved with the
clean up.

McQuisten attends Trump’s
campaign announcement
BY JAYSON JACOBY
jjacoby@bakercityherald.com
Kerry McQuisten sat in the
ballroom at Donald Trump’s
Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida,
and as Trump walked through
the room she sensed the his-
toric nature of what she was
watching.
A few minutes later, on the
evening of Nov. 15, the former
president announced that he
would seek a second four-year
term in the 2024 election.
McQuisten, Baker City
mayor and a 2022 Oregon
gubernatorial candidate, de-
scribed it as a “once-in-a-life-
time experience.”
“We were watching an his-
toric event in the making,” she
said. “I’m so glad I had the op-
portunity to do that.”
Less than a week earlier, Mc-
Quisten had figured that when
Trump announced his can-
didacy — as he had recently
been hinting he would do—
she would be watching on TV.
“I truly hadn’t expected to
be invited,” she wrote in an
email to the Baker City Herald.
But after her invitation ar-
rived on Nov. 11, McQuisten
said she “had to scramble to
make travel arrangements.”
McQuisten accompanied
Solomon Yue, the Oregon Re-
publican Party’s national com-
mitteeman to the Republican
National Committee.
McQuisten said that as far as
she can tell, she and Yue were
the only Oregonians in the au-
dience of about 1,000 at Mar-
a-Lago.
McQuisten said she arrived
at the estate about 90 min-
utes before the gates opened
at 6:30 p.m. Eastern time. She
said Trump started his speech
around 9 p.m.
He spoke for at least an
hour, she said.
McQuisten said her and
Yue’s seats were directly in
front of the stage and in the
center, “so we were right in
front” of Trump, she wrote in
the email.
“There were about 1,000
people in the room, most
standing at the back,” she
wrote. “Right behind them was
a huge bank of media, and the
floodlights were something
else.
