The family, except for the

Hatfield in Talk
Walter J. Pearson, Democratic
candidate for governor in a re
cent talk at Condon said that
Governor Mark Hatfield's "ex
panding state economy" is ac
tually discouraging and driving
business away.
More than 60 persons attended
the banquet in the Condon Hotel.
Pearson was introduced by
James O. Burns. Before the talk,
local candidates were introduced
and a few words were spoken
by Rep. Frank Weatherford and
Jack Smith, both candidates for
representative for the 28th dis
trict. The Democratic candidate for
governor said that there are
more people on the public pay
roll and less people in private
business. He added that "we
have to substitute something to
halt climbing property taxes.
Oregon has the highest per cap
ita property tax on the Pacific
Coast." He proposed a luxury
sales tax as a property tax off
set as an acceptable substitute.
In a question and answer
session following his speech,
Pearson said that space-age de
velopment at Boardman is a big
question mark. "Although there
is the possibility, growth does
not look likely," he said. The
candidate said he favors the re
apportionment initiative as the
only means of saving the rep
resentation of rural areas.

Over The
Tee Cup
By DEE GRIBBLE
In the good ol' summertime,
tra-la! But isn't it?
Almost every morning you can
find a partner to play golf with,
if you don't already have one.
Tuesday was a good day for
the ladies and 17 turned out.
Low gross was a tie between
Marie and Dee with 43. Hidden
hole turned out to be for least
putts on number 5, and was my
lucky day again. Marie won the
flip on the tie so we both were
happy with an award. Hazel
used that same old bridge ap
proach on number 5. You know,
that takes more doing than you
think, to hit the bridge and still
have a playable lie. Guess we
better carry wire snips to get
Gene Case out of trouble, (hear
the gals playing with her nearly
Playing Tuesday were Bebe,
Corkie, Marie, Kay A., Helen, Ro
berta, Hazel, Gene, Hester, Joyce,
Nadine, Jan. Marie and for the
first time this year, Maxine Gray
and June Spencer.
Dates to remember
May 8, ladies of Kinzua will
be our guests at a planned play
and potluck lunch on the court
house lawn.
June 27, we are invited to
John Day. If you want to go, let
your wishes be known so cars
can be planned. It's a stinker
of a golf course (it's that hard)
but the hospitality can't be
beaten.
Since this Sunday is Easter
the Bunny is putting out sur
prises for those that will spend
Easter at home and want to play
golf about 3 o'clock.
Ladies Day committee for the
month consists of Corkie, Bebe
and Kay Anderson.
If vnn wonder who lifted the
sod and planted the vines and
shrubs around the screen on
number 8 tee. I can tell you.
It's no secret that the McQuar
ries have long been one of the
hardest working families in be
half of the golf course. Now that
the planting is done, the least
we can do is throw a bucket of
Willow Creek on mem tne
plants, that is.

Band Carnival
Grosses $1100
Approxi m a t e 1 y $1100 was
grossed at the band carnival,
sponsored by the Band Parents'
club, at the fair pavilion Satur
day night, Chairman Bud Peck
said. A jam-packed crowd at
tended from the start at 5 p. m.
until closing time late in the
evening, the event adding a fit
ting climax to the merchants'
"Salute to Spring."
The supper, served from 5 to
7, brought approximately $250,
and popular concessions, num
bering 18 in all, brought the
balance.
Winner of the movie camera,
offered) as a major prize for the
carnival, was Mrs. H. J. Stroeber,
and Charles Ruggles won the
barbecue grill.
Door prizes went to Ray Mas
sey, stuffed poodle dog; Mrs.
Mike Whitesmith, barb e c u e
utensils; and John Van Winkle,
bronze clock horse. Band stu
dents who received cash prizes
for selling the most tickets to
the carnival, all in the fifth
grade, were Mona Marshall,
Sherry O'Brien and Larry Petty
john. Proceeds of the carnival, yet
to be determined because com
plete list of expenses is yet to
be compiled', will go partly to
the band uniform fund and the
balance to pay tuition of music
students to the Washington
State university summer music
school.
Chairman Peck, very pleased
with the fine success of the carn
ival, asked that his thanks be
expressed to all who helped. He
had particular words of apprec
iation for the kitchen help, who
worked hard, andi to the band
parents who pitched in to assist
in many ways on all phases of
the carnival.
McClure to Visit
Pomona Grange
State Master Elmer McClure
will be a guest at the meeting
of Morrow County Pom o n a
Grange at the Rhea Creek
Grange hall Saturday, April 28
at 10:30 a. m.
A business session will open
the meeting in the morning, and
lunch will be served by ladies
of the Rhea Creek Grange at
noon. Fifth degree work will be
put on by the Rhea Creek Grange
when the meeting reconvenes at
2 p. m., and a memorial service
will follow for members who
have died during the past year.
Important resolutions will also
be considered during the meet
ing. "This promises to be an out
standing meeting and members
are urged to be present," Alvin
Wagenblast, Pomona master,
states.
Herrick Accepts
lone School Post
Leonard Herrick, teacher at
Helix for the past six years and
principal part of that time, has
accepted the position of elemen
tary school principal at lone, his
letter reaching the office of
Robert Van Houte, county school
administrator, Thursday.
His wife, Esther, will also
teach. They have a 12-year-old
son and plan to move to lone
sometime in June. Mr. and Mrs.
Herrick expect to attend summer
school either at Washington
State university or University
of Idaho.
It was erroneously stated in
the Gazette-Times last week
that Herrick had been hired to
succeed Darrel Reisch as admin
istrative principal of the high
school. Rather, he succeeds Don
Clark as elementary principal.
No successor has been chosen
tor the high school post as yet.
Meeting on Parks
Said 'Disappointing'
A meeting of the Morrow
county parks commission with
the state nark commission at lr-
rigon last Thursday proved "dis
appointing," Morrow chairman
Orville Cutsforth reported to the
Heppner-Morrow county Cham
ber of Commerce Monday.
"We were disappointed witn
everything we got at the meet
ing," he said. The local com
mission had had hopes of getting
a park developed in the Irrigon
area by the state, but was in
formed that there are insufficient
funds available to finance the
project.
Cutsforth said mat mere is a
'wonderful" site at Irrigon with
30 acres of ground and sandy
beach. However, it would take
at least $25,000 to develop it,
the local commission was In
formed.
No encouragement was given
by the state on the Chapin creek
park site, either, although Kin
zua corporation would donate
two-thirds of the land and1 Wal
ter Wright would give the re
mainder, Cutsforth said. The
state said that in this case the
traffic count indicated that a
state park is not justified there.
Sunday visitors at the Lee
Scrivner home were several un-
xpected relatives and friends.
