Main Ph. 157G-94SO Rockhound Corner By BETTY WAGNER The George Miller home near Cecil was alive with activity Saturday night as the rock hounds and their guests met sur rounded bv rocks, crystals, and Indian artifacts. Before we started on our arm chair trip to Mexico, a letter from 7th-grader, Kathie Hamp ton, 221 Wilson Avenue, Pla- centia, Calif., was read revealing her deep hearts yearning for labeled specimens of rocks from all over the U. S. to begin her rock collection. Then off we went to McAllen Texas, with Mrs. Mil ler as our guide. The "Operation Rockhound" was first made known to the Millers at a rock shop in northern Texas. After they reached their destination, the rock show at McAllen, their interest in "Operation Rock hound" grew until they sudden ly found themselves signing up for the tour which was scheduled to begin in another few days, with hotel accommodations at San Luis Potosi, Mexico. With bus trips to remote rock hunting areas, hiking up and down hills packing heavy bags of rocks, a lovely reception and an evening of serenading plan ned by the governor for the four of almost 200 rockhounds, our eastern Oregon "hounds" found themselves exhausted and over flowing with exciting memories. Beautiful rock and crystal spec imens, and other mementoes, in cluding a lovely red Santa Maria rebosa (scarf), especially selected by the governor's wife, which Mrs. Miller won at a drawing, were included in the treasures. Colored slides were shown of the trip and then refreshments were served by the Millers. Among the rock specimens dis played were sharks teeth, Guad alcazarite, jade, jasper, onyx, crystals of cinnabar, calcite, pyrite, and quartz; and two door prizes were given away a key chain with attached agate cabo chon and a lovely pair of Mex ican amethyst earrings.
