Cheryle Lundell Wins First Place In Law Contest Chervle Ann I.i omore of lone High school, has won nrsi piace and a $25 Sav ings Bond in the Sixth Judicial tsar associations Law Day con test, James C. Walton, Pendle ton attorney, announces. He was co-chairman of the annual con test for Morrow and Umatilla counties. Miss Lundell will be presented the savings bond in a ceremony at the school. Her wining editorial is as fol lows: Modern law, is putting it simply, society's safeguard. We, as citizens of the United States, through such documents as the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights, have been endowed with certain rights, natural, civil, religious, and ac quired. Law guarantees that these rights will be preserved. An outstanding example of this is found in the Declaration of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men . . . are endowed by their Creator with certain in alienable rights . . . That to se em e inese ngnis, governments are instituted among men, de-1 riving their just powers from) the consent of the governed." It' is Dy tnese governments that we are protected and restrained through the law. Through the ages, power was unlimited in the hands of the authority of the state. Gradually, though, an argument developed that individuals and groups had certain inalienable rights which could not be limited by those in authority. It was on this basis that our democratic gov ernment and country were rear ed; it is through this idea that our laws are made and being administered. Our natural rights are a won derful gift, something that the state must not go against, but rather preserve, and guarantee to us, its citizens. The state is also instituted to grant rights as between individuals, and to advance the common good by promoting the prosperity and peace of its citizens. The legal and governmental institutions of Western Civili zation are based upon these prin ciples, disclosing that law is the rule of right, not might. Hynds Enjoy Trip To South Mexico Herb and Jack Hynd, and Jack's son, Dick, all of Cecil, together with Frank Lewellyn of Pendleton, returned Friday from a lU-day trm to southern Mex ico. They made the iaunt in Lewellyn's -airplane and went as far as Mazatlan on the Gulf of California. One of the main purposes of the jaunt was to do some big game fishing. They caught a lew saimsh but no marlin. They enjoyed the picturesque country that they saw. There are no lawns in cities of that part of Mexico except in parks. Tile sidewalks and floors, how ever, attracted their admiration. Being that far south the group saw what they termed was "the real Mexico" instead of being in border towns that cater to the tourists. However, Mazatlan, a city of 41,000, is making a bid for tourists, hoping to entice vis itors from Acapaulco and other favorite spots. The four-place Cessna, owned by Lewellyn, a nephew of the Hynds, proved a comfortable way to travel. MONEY AT WORK keeps your savings and earnings growing. I can help you build your family's future.

By DEE CRIBBLE After a false start for two weeks in a row, ten golfing gals made it around on Tuesday. With my face red and my ears burning for not spreading the word that the front burner at the Wishing Well was turned off, (I'm sorry gals), we pro ceeded to hit into the water, which isn't hard right now. Not one gal played up to her ability, but Hester Creswick nearly did, and won a golf ball for low score. Cora Mae Ferguson and Cork Norene tied for hidden hole with Cork winning the toss. , Also playing were Roberta Dougherty, Janet Turner, Helen Schaffitz, Hazel Mahoney, Marie McQuarrie, Dee Gribble, Lois Hunt and Kay Robinson. Judge Carmichael finished his round Tuesday just in time to mow the greens was real thoughtful of him T hanks, Judge. The hard work and planning has payed off this time high water hasn't done the damage that it has in the past. A group of five couples played golf at Bowman's golf course at Welches with inches of water to slosh through and tons of snow to brush out of the way, and what wind! Couldn't hardly call it play we worked at it but a good time was had by all. A good many golfers have posted enough scores to start figuring handicaps. Come on, handicap committee, get busy well have visitors to play in May.
