) o i : f "0 n r O C H H I I t l r Gazette Times I.I u 0 Volume 63, Number 31 - Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, October 24, 1946 EPPSF Application Filed For Federal Funds For Lex Airport Mayor Henderson Not Too Sure of Merits of Plan Mayor Alonzo Henderson of Lex ington spent Monday in Baker where he consulted with represent atives of the federal bureau of aer onautics relative to obtaining as sistance in development of the Lex ington airport. After spending four hours trying to comprehend the federal agency's program he filled out an application blank which will be forwarded to the proper auth thorities. Henderson stated that making the application does not necessarily bind either the applicant or the bureau, as the right to reject is open to both parties. He is not sure that the money can be obtained through this source and neither is he so sure that it would be advisable to accept it if offered. He' is con vinced there is too much red tape, too much government regulation for a small port to comply with to make it practical to obligate for the sum asked. Development at the airport has reached the point of conforming to the state's aeronautical regulations and buildings and plans now under way will make it a desirable port of call should some air line decide to include Lexington on its map. Completion of these buildings and plans depends upon the funds made available by private subscription and it now appears that a campaign for ready cash will have to be stag ed to carry on the work. At present, two buildings are in process of construction or have been started. The olfice and lounge can be completed very shortly when materials for doing the job are av ailable. This includes plumbing supplies and interior finishing ma terials. State regulations require ample rest room facilities and com fortable waiting rooms. The build ing now nearing completion ans wers that requirement. The base for the walls of a ma chine shop has been laid and the building will be pushed to comple tion as soon as workmen are avail able. The most pressing demand is the gravelling of the runways. With the big crusher of the Newport Con struction company working right at the entrance to the field it is pos sible to get tlie crushed rock at a nominal cost. It will require 1000 yards or more to do the job. Ralph Jackson has volunteered the loan of a five-ton dump truck and if the county court can be prevailed upon to put several of the road trucks at the disposal of the airport for a couple of days, the job can be done and the port will then be ready to receive any type plane th.,,1 may come this way. One other jo,b, the laying of an oil and gravel apron in front of the buildings will complete the program for handling planes and meet the requirments for student training.

County's Biggest Taxpayer Advocates Passage of Both School Support Measures Modestly admitting that he is the biggest taxpayer in Morrow county Orville Cutsforth, Lexington wheat and cattle rancher, told the lunch eon group of the Heppner chamber of commerce Monday noon that he favors both House Bill 80 and the basic school law and will vote yes on both of them November 5. Cutsforth spent the greater part of his allotted time discussing House Bill 80, inasmuch, as he said, he un dersood that measure better and feels directly concerned in its workings in the event it is passed. He made some strong points for the bill, mainly on the tax equalization features and the benefits to be de rived by active districts from new revenues coming from inactive dis tricts. One point of particular in terest to Morrow county is the fact that absentee landlords will be con ributing their share to school sup por, a privilege they do not now enjoy if their property lies in a non-taxed area. The speaker expressed the belief that although the basic school bill as written may not be the answer to our school problem in the state, it at least is a start in the right direction and he will cast his vote in favor of the measure. He said he did not feel qualified to discuss Man's Hobby May Lead to Profitable New Industry Here It is not uncommon for people to develop paying businesses from hobbies and there is prospect for such a thing to happen right here in Heppner. When Gordon Grady, bookkeeper at the Rosewall Motor company. bought the Dan Bishop place in Mt Vernon addition he laid plans to build a small greenhouse a very small one, in fact In the course of a conversation with Mrs. Ed Bucknum, proprietor of the Flower Shop, he unfolded his plans. Mrs. Bucknum persuaded him to enlarge the plans and grow some flowers and plants on a commercial basis, at the same time agreeing to retail them for him. This he consented to do and instead of a probable 4x6 set-up he has expanded the size to 12 x 20. He will have 150 feet of growing space and will propagate all house plants and annuals for spring planting, besides sprouting some vegetables tomatoes, cab bage, etc. Grady is no novice at the busi- nss. He studied horticulture at the University of Wisconsin and has spent more than half his lifetime working with flowers and plants. His parents, who now reside at Her miston, for many years conducted commercial flower garden in Mil waukee and it was there the son de veloped a passion for raising and tending; the tender plants. Fortun ately for Mr. Grady his wife is keenly interested in the work and together they will make a go of the enterprise.

While presenting his ideas rela tive to House Bill 80, Cutsforth put in a plug for a county high school, or at least a union of schools in the Willow creek valley. "We will not get the full benefit of this bill unless there is a change brought about in our local school set-up," he declared. He advocates the buil ding of a complete high school plant, preferably outside any of the towns, but as nearly central as pos sible. He admitted doubt about such a move being undertaken but is firmly convinced of its merits. Asked his opinion relative to the Little Townsend measure, Cutsforth said he considered it dangerous and plead for more publicity pointing out its fallacies. If passed, he stated Oregon agriculture and industry in general will be placed at a decided ly unfair advantage with neighbor ing states. There was considerable expres sion in favor of a sales tax to aid school funds and to care for the ag ed and disabled.

Probation Violator Called to Account Terry Cline, logger, is being held an the county jail on order of City Recorder E. R. Huston on a charge of violating terms of probation granted him when haled before the recorder earlier in the year on a disorderly count. Cline was origin ally given a 50-day jail sentence and a fine of $100. Upon payment of the fine he was placed on six months probation and released to return to his work in the woods. Failure to live up to the probation caused the city police to take him before the recorder.

Lowell Rippee, diminutive Mus tang fullback, laced a 21-yard touchdown pass, mid-way in the opening canto, to Jack Parrish, end, in the end-zone to begin the scor ing. Clarence Greenup, quarter' back, plunged over for the conver sion. Rippee startled the spectators again when he intercepted a Honk er forward, and with superb down- field inerference, galloped 65 yards tor the second T.D. The second period saw a few new faces on the field, as Coach Pate began to substitute. The period saw a spectacular 35-yard pass, also, by Clarence Greenup to J. Parrish, who was immediately snowed un der by Honkers on A. H. S. 10-yard line. Greenup skirted left end for the only score of that period. Bus ter Padberg, Mustang halfback, smashed over for the extra point. Following the kick-off by Ran dall Peterson, Mu6tang left-tackle, Arlington was forced back to their own goal line. Bud Roberts, Ar lington quarterback, tried booting the Honkers out of their hole but Jack Parrish rushed in and block ed the kick and immediately fell upon it for the fourth score for the Mustangs. Greenup smashed over for the extra point. Lowell Rippee intercepted anoth er Arlington pass in the latter part of the third quarter and ran it back 50 yards before he was brought down on the Honker's 5-yard line. Clarence Geenup glided around end for the fifth tally and Buster Pad. berg plunged over for the conver sion. In the final quarter, Don Mun kers, expeditious Mustang half back, threaded his way through the remnants of the Honker football squad for the final score. Richard Allstott plunged over for the extra point. Responsibility For City Accidents Put On Local Drivers Local drivers must shoulder the responsibility for the great bulk of Oregon's city accidents, says a new study just completed by the office of Robert S. Farrell Jr., secretary of state. The study covered Astoria, Med ford, Bend, Klamath Falls, Eugene, and Salem. Two-thirds of the drivers involv ed in accidents lived inside the linv its of the city of occurrence. Eighty- five percent lived either inside the city or within 25 mills, and only three percent were from outside the state. "You can't pin any large part of the accidents in your town oh tour ists," Farrell said. "It's simply not true. Accident records from the six major cities studied show that Ore gon drivers were behind the wheel of 97 percent of the cars involved." The figures are new, being based on the first six months of 1946. They debunk the old excuse that tourists and strangers speeding through town cause "all the wrecks." There is very little dif ference between the figures per taining to any of the six cities and the average for the group. Refer ence to old accident records shows that this picture is substantially the same year in and year out, and that the 1946 figures are in no way unusual. "We Oregonians migh as well face it," Farrell said. "We're caus ing our own accidents, and the man who tries to shove them off on tour ists is just kidding himself. He cer ainly isn't kidding the state author ities who have the records.

Office Morrow 4-H Beef Club Members Get Off to a Good Start Climaxed by a very enthusiastic club meeting held at the John Graves home Sunday afternoon, 12 new members were added to the county beef club. Members made plans for selecting 4-H beef animals for their fat steer projects and 15 calves were selected the fore part of this week. The Sherman and Ferguson herd of Shorthorns provided eleven high quality, typy animals that show great possibilities of feeding out to prime beef. Club members select ing animals from this herd are: Gerald Peterson, Louis Carlson, Duane Baker, Ingrid Hermann, Jane Seehafer, Betty Caves and Jo Anne Graves. Barbara Sherman had made her selection from this herd earlier. On Tuesday four Hereford steers were selected from the Weatherford herd in Gilliam county. Four-H members Sally Palmer and Roger Palmer each selected a calf. Two were selected by the Cutsforth boys and girls but we have no official statement as to which of the four members will take those two. Other steers on feed, selected some time ago, are those of Ingrid Hermann and Ida Lee Chapel who selected calves from the Frank An derson herd. In addition Ida Lee Chapel has two calves from the Roy Robinson herd on feed. Two calves purchased by the Graves children have not yet arrived. These calves were purchased from the J. W. Ben nett herd at Winona, Wash. Several club members will select calves within the near future from herds in Umatilla, Gilliam and Mor row counties. All of these calves will be fed and fattened by club members to be exhibited at the Eastern Oregon Wheat league spon sored fat stock show and sale, state fair, and Pacific International. Morrow county 4-H members are going to have a number of projects to exhibit next fall. In order that they may have the same backing and enjoy the same benefits as club members in neigh boring counties they are very hope ful that spirit-minded citizens will provide them with a good county fair to make their club program a success.
