To Renew Appeal
For Rhea Creek Road
Members of the Morrow county
court will go to Pilot Rock next
Tuesday to meet the state highway
commission.
"We want to let them know that
we're not satisfied because definite
announcement has not been made
as to what is going to be done on
the Heppner-Rhea creek road," said
Judge Bert Johnson. "The tentative
set-up seems to be that this sector
will be completely surfaced next
year, but we're going to keep after
them until we are certain this will
be the case."
The commission is slated to be in
Pilot Rock Tuesday to view the pro
posed highway changes and im
provements sought by people there
as a result of the early summer
flood damage.
. It is too late to expect any con
siderable amount of work on Mor
row county projects which were
viewed by the commission several
weeks ago, said Judge Johnson. And
while encouraging report has been
received of the Heppner-Rhea creek
work going through next year, the
court desires definite assurances.
"We want the commission to real
ize that our people are just as anx
ious now for the work to go ahead
as they were at the time of the com
misispn's visit," he asserted.
Ellis Hendrickson
Visits Old Home Town
Back in . 1913 Ellis Hendrickson
left Heppner as a youth fresh out of
high school to seek what fortune
might accord him in California,
Having come to Heppner with his
parents shortly after the Heppner
flood, he received much of his ele
mentary schooling here, and when he
"ventured into the world" he was
accompanied by two other enterpris
ing young men, Harry Wright and
Jimmy Yeager.
The way of fortune for Ellis in
the intervening years in which
time, too, he married Miss Ina Jones,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Jones
of this city lay mostly in a maritime
career, including many trips to sea
as assistant steward or radio oper
ator. Thus with his family located
in the attractive residential city of
San Leandro, he made his way to
his present station of assistant pas
senger agent for the Mattson line.
Ellis made his first visitation to
the old home town in nine years this
week, arriving the end of the week
and departing Tuesday, accompanied
by Mrs. Hendricksn and son Alvin
who had visited for two months at
:?the home of Mrs. Hendrickson's par
' ents. Ellis noted many changes since
'.he left Heppner, but was glad to say
that most seemed to be for the bet
ter. BPW MEET SET
The first district 'conference of
Oregon Federation of Business and
Professional Women's clubs, for the
club year 1938-39, will be held in
Toledo. Ore., Sunday, Aug. 28. Club
members are urged to attend this
first conference in order to start the
year's work in good shape, and for
the inspiration such a meeting al
ways gives. See Rose Leibbrand,
president, for plans.

STAGE COACH BRINGS REMINISCENCES
OF HISTORY; NO BULLET HOLES FOUND
Stage coaches passed out of the
picture in Heppner shortly after
completion of the branch railroad in
the fall of 1888, it is recalled by old-
timers whose memory of glamorous
days agone was freshened by ap
pearance of the trail-worn vehicle
that took a prominent part in the
dress-up day proceedings, Saturday,
by courtesy of Pendleton Round-Up.
Billy Lord was recalled as one of
the last of the noted drivers of the
run between Heppner and Pendle
ton. Regular runs also were made
to Canyon City, Echo and other
points not so far distant. Charlie
Valentine, Bruce Kelley, Billy Cor
son, Hank - Howell and Del Ward
were among those who had ridden
the fastest vehicles of the old horse
days, and Howell had driven them
on occasion.
Ad Moore passed by. No, he had
never driven a coach on a regular
run. However, he had driven a team
in the stage coach race at the Round
Up several times.
A difference of opinion was ex
pressed as to whether the coach dis-

played was a Thorough Breeze or a
Concord, the two most noted makes
when the historic carriages were the
chief mode of passenger travel be
tween pioneer towns, as well as noted
conveyors of fabulously rich ship
ments of gold, mail and express. One
pioneer believed the coach to be a
Concord for sure, while another was
equally certain that it was a Thor
ough Breeze.
But whatever the make, the ve
hicle showed signs of tough usage,
even though sturdily made to with
stand hard driving over the old cow
trails, rocky, rutty, dusty or muddy
in season. Of special interest were
the large leather springs, running
lengthwise under either side of the
coach body heavy strips of leather
placed compactly together, with
possibly a large cowhide in each.
Pictures of stage coaches are too
plentiful to necessitate a complete
description, but animal skins nailed
on either side of the driver's foot
board, gave opportunity for some
imaginative conjectures as to how
they probably were mighty welcome

But no bullet holes were found.
Polled Herefords
Attract Californians
Additional evidence of the fame
of Roy Robinson's polled Hereford
cattle was seen this week when a
party of California people passed
through town, asking their way to
the Robinson ranch.
Stopping at a service station they
inquired the way, saying, "We are
interested in Mr. Robinson's fine
cattle."
"He has some dandies, alright,"
replied the service station man.
"Well, they had better be. We've
driven all the Way from California
to find out," was the rejoiner.
The Oregon state employment ser
vice reports the placing of 5702 per
sons in jobs during July, a gain of
13 percent over June. Approxi

in forest fire fighting, 25 percent in
public construction, 16 percent in
agriculture and 13 percent in lum
ber manufacturing.
