Among groups who have been
working hard on local floats are
the Soroptimist club, the Motn
er's club and Rainbow for Girls,
all of Heppner.
In building floats, organlza
tions are following the theme,
"Songs Old and New," chosen
in a contest conducted by the
Chamber of Commerce earlier
this year.
Bands from Heppner, lone and
Riverside will be in the parade,
and others may also come to
take part.
Courts have been invited from
many other towns and cities, but
it is not known how many will
arrive.
The parade will go south on
Main and May street and turn
east to Chase (Farley service
station corner). Here the mount
ed groups will fall out, perhaps
continuing to the rodeo grounds,
and the kids will also disband.
Remainder of the parade will
go south to Cannon, then turn
west to Main again where it
will turn north and go back by
the reviewing stand in downtown
Heppner. Here Queen Sandra
Eubanks will award prizes won
by the floats.
Judging of floats will be done
promptly at 9:30, so it is im
nerative for all to be present at
that time, Randall Peterson, in
charge of Judging, states.
Orville Cutsforth will have
charge of assembling the parade,
and Jim Farley will assist. An
nouncers at the reviewing stand
will be Harold Erwin and La
Verne Van Marter.
Those taking part in the pa
rade will compete for $475 in
prizes offered by the sponsoring
Heppner-Morrow County Cham
ber of Commerce. Many prizes
are offered in all categories from
the kids on up to the most lavisn
floats.

Cowboys to Gather
For 1963 Rodeo;
Horse Show Due
(Continued from page 1)
Admission to the rodeo shows
will remain at the popular prices
of last year, $2 for adults at
the Saturday and Sunday after
noon shows, $1 for students; $1
for adults at the Saturday night
show and 50c for children.
Those driving to the show will
be asked this year to go to the
upper gate to the fair grounds
and turn in. Tickets will not be
sold to the customers until they
are parked and headed for the
stands. The regular rodeo gate
will be kept closed except for a
few officials' cars. In this manner
it is hoped to expedite parking
without congesting the highway
while selling tickets in the cars
at the gate, Glmbel states.

Businessmen Ride
To Chamber Meet
Some 12 or 14 members of
the Chamber of Commerce
made good on their promise to
ride on horseback to their Mon
day luncheon meeting to pub
licize the Morrow County Fair
and Rodeo, and they had a
good time doing it.
But they couldn't have done
it, if a number of girls in
the community hadn't given
them a big assist by lending
them horses for the occassion.
The group assembled at
Tum-A-Lum Lumber Co. and
rode in double file to the First
National Bank corner, then
turned east one block before
making a U-turn and proceed
ing back to the Wagon Wheel
Cafe. No speed records were
broken.
The event drew a good crowd
of amused spectators who
couldn't say too much for the
horsemanship displayed but
might have had a good word
for the spirit shown by the
businessmen.
Frank Turner and Jim Far
ley worked out plans for the
event, down to the hitching
rail -at the Wagon wheel. It
looks now as if it might be
come an annual event.
Among girls loaning horses
were Nancy Cleveland, Vickl
Barratt, Maralee Murray,
Shannon Mahoney, Barbara
Gribble, Lisa Collins, Cheryl
Bellenbrock, Kay Daggett, ajjfl
Deanne Wagner.
Chamber members asked
that a great big "Thank you!"
be extended to the girls for
their help.

One or more income-producing
recreation enterprises were es
tablished by 118 land owners
and operators cooperating with
their locally-managed soil and
water conservation districts dur
ing fiscal year 19G3, the U. S.
Soil Conservation Service an
nounced, i
An additional 145 district co
operators said they intend to es
tablish one or more recreation
enterprises. In all, 699 district
cooperators considered including
recreation for profit in their op
erations in the course of receiv
ing technical help from the
USDA's Soil Conservation Service
during the fiscal year.
A total of 16 district cooper
ators switched from livestock,
dairy, crops, fruits and similar
farming activities to recreation
enterprises as a primary source
of income, SCS said. This in
volved 1,763 acres of land. An
other 29 cooperators said they
will convert 6,422 acres of land
from present livestock and crop
ping patterns to recreation as
a primary source of income.
The income-produc 1 n g rec
reation enterprises established
and planned include vacation
farms, picnic and sports cen
ters, fishing waters, camping and
nature recreation areas, hunting
areas, and shooting preserves.
State Conservationist, T. P.
Helseth, who directs rural de
velopment and conservation ac
tivities of SCS in Oregon, said
the outdoor recreation progress
in districts is "remarkable."
"That so much could be ac
complished in just a few months
of emphasis on this phase of
rural areas development indi
cates both the need for recreation
developments in rural Oregon
and the splendid leadership of
soil and water conservation dis
tricts," he said
The report prepared by the
Soil Conservation Service, which
has responsibility for USDA
leadership in working with pri
vate landowners in developing
income producing outdoor rec
reation, shows that interest in
developing rural recreation en
terprises is not confined to areas
surrounding expanding metro
politan centers but is widespread
throughout the 60 soil and water
conservation districts that now
include 69 per cent of the- total
area of the state; 90 per cent
of the farms, and 77 per cent of
the farm area.
On a national basis, 9.S16 SCD
cooperators have entered the
outdoor recreation field and an
additional 9,075 intend to estab
lish one or more recreation en
terprises. In all, 39,685 district
cooperators considered including
recreation for protit in their op
erations.
Morrow county's school board
spent Tuesday afternoon and
evening in the Boardrnan and
Irrigon areas, checking sites that
have been under consideration
for possible relocation of River
side High school.
A contract signed by the former
school board is not considered a
legal contract because it had not
been finally approved by the
Corps of Engineers before the
new board took office, a repre
sentative of the Corps told the
rlirpntnrs. This pnntrapt rnllpH fnr

man townsite.
The directors checked the
possible sites during the after
noon as a matter of review since
only one, Harvey Warner, was
posted on them as a member
of the "old" board. Warner, to
gether with William H. Parker
of Irrigon and Roy Partlow and
Mayor Dewey West, both of
Boardrnan, led the tour, visiting
sites in Irrigon, Boardrnan and
in-between.
At a 7 p.m. meeting the direc
tors were joined by representa
tives of the Corps, Rupert Ken
nedy, representing the State De
partment of Planning and De
velopment, and James H. Dwin
nell of the aero-space division
of the Boeing Co.
It was pointed out by the En
gineers that if another site were
chosen, it would have to be
approved by the Chief of En
gineers, and there could be no
guarantee whether he would de
cide for or against it. This would
take about two or three months.
The Engineers only recommen
dation to the board is that a site
be chosen that would best serve
the public. With the delay now
scheduled In filling the John
Day reservoir to be in 1968
there is still V years time be
fore the deadline of completing
the contract.
Dwinnell said that tests that
Boeing might undertake at its
Morrow county site would last
for a period of only a few sec
onds several times per month.
Testing will be done in the lower
center of the project area, some
14 miles from lone, 11 miles from
Boardrnan and 20 miles from
Irrigon. Boeing's high-powered
motor noises consist of short,
sharp pistol-like reports, Dwin
nell said. Noises from rockets
would be in the low frequency
Barratts Honored
Mr. and Mrs. Garnett Barratt
were honored at a party on Sun
day, August 18, by Mr. and Mrs.
Franklin Hamlin at the Ham-
lins' mountain cabin. Guests for
dinner were Mr. and Mrs. Ralph
Thompson, Mr. and Mrs. Jack
Bedford, Mrs. Bea Bedford, the
honored guests and the host
couple. The Barratts also enjoyed
having breakfast there with the
Hamlins.

The company will seek to fire

Dwinnell made it clear that

that may be disturbing to them.

Frank Parkers Take
Trip to Klondike
Old memories will be relived

QUESTION: How does an in
surance company settle a
claim for a damaged tire? Do
they always replace it with
a new tire?
ANSWER: The usual settle
ment is on a mileage basis.
If the tire had half its wear
left, the company would pay
half its cost. If the tire had
three fourths of its wear left,
the company would pay three
fourths of its cost and so
forth.
