The first issue of the Central
Point Times is published. The
story of its founding can now be
told.
Two months ago, the Jim Ander-
sons received word that a paper
was to be started at Central Point
and it happened that their publi
cation at South Bend, Washington
The South Bend Journal, had a
offset newspaper press for sale.
A trip was made here. Mr. C lif f
Ayres
was contacted at the
First National Bank. He knew no
thing of a paper starting but he
thought the town should have its
own weekly. The Andersons were
impressed with the growth of Cen
tral Point and its area. The last
time Anderson had been in Cen
tral Point was in 1955, when in
the compnay of Ed Stolle of the
Mt. Angel News, a purchase was
made of some of the equipment
of Central Point's last newspaper.
The American.
Mr. and Mrs. Gregory Slo“”
directory ad specialists
were working on a directory for
South Rend Journal. When they
were told of the Central Point s it
uation their feeling was that Cen
tral Point should have its paper and
we were the logical people to do
the job. They agreed to support
the project if the Andersons would
assume responsibility of the pub
lication. The Sloans agreed to
handle the advertising end.
The first thought was to move
the offset press from South Bend
It was discovered that the Ashland
Daily Tidings had a beautiful
new offset newspaper plan. Mr.
Edd Roundtree, publisher of the
Tidings was contacted and pre
vailed upon to do the printing of
of the Central Point Times in his
offset newspaper plant. The com
position and assembling of the
Times was to be done at Central
Point.
The South Bend Journal was
the next problem. A capable pub
lisher had to be found. Robert
Messing, who had recently pub
lished a paper in Tacoma, reluct
antly agreed to take respon
s ib ility so the South Bend hurtle
was cleared.
Actual publication of the Times
may have dallied except that the
best available location at 36
Pine owned by Llyod Livingston
was not going to be available for
long. Mr. Ayres called South Bend
and said if the 36 Pine location
waa wanted, the lease had better
be completed. It was, and the pub
lication was set to start with this
issue.
Readers w ill note the variety
of type styles, especially in the
reading
matter.
Uniformity w ill-
come in following issues.
The present staff is Mr., and Mrs.
Anderson, Mr. and Mrs. Sloan
have helped on the first issue,
Rosemary Eiamann and Steve
Grimm who helps after school. The
Sloans have directory work to
complete in Eugene and w ill not
be active here until after the first
of the year.
