Irrigon Reelects
City's Progress Noted
By LaVELLE PARTLOW
IRRIGON Mayor Chester A.
Wilson was unanimously re
elected to serve as Mayor of Irri
gon for another year at the City
Council meeting held Tuesday
evening. The City charter for
Irrigon provides that the mayor
will he elected by the council at
the first council meeting of the
calendar year, to serve for one
year. Donald Adams was elec
ted Pro Tern Mayor, and Mrs.
Marguerile Houghton was reelec
ted as City Recorder.
After Wilson's reelection, lie
read the following progress re
port: "Although no major ad
vancements have occurred, there
have been some improvements
in the past year, namely: (1) Re
application for the opening of
6th slreet, which was finally ap
proved and agreement signed
with the Railroad, leaving only
the actual construction to be ac
complished, (2) The seal-coating
of approximately 10,000 ft. of
streets, costing around $4,000.00,
(3) The signing of an agreement
with Umatilla Electric Co-op.
Ass'n. resulting in the instal
lation of 10 street lights on South
Main, (4) Contracting with Cor
nell, Ilowland, Hayes and Merry
field for feasibility studies on
water and sewerage systems, (5)
The placing of street sign posts
with six "stop" and six "yield''
signs, as well as 27 temporary
street-name signs.
"Twelve recular meetings of
the council were held, and three
special meetings, one of these
a specially called public meet
ing for the purpose of discussing
a city water system. There were
only 3 absences of members dur
ing the year.
"A Municipal Judge was elec
ted at a special election and 6
ordinances were passed, with on?
being repealed. One resignation
was received on the planning
commission and one appoint
ment made. Twenty-eight letters
were written by the mayor in
behalf of the city, besides those
118 mailed on the water study.
"The Planning Commission
has done an excellent job, for
which we commend them. Be
sides the work they have done
in their regular meetings, much
outside effort has been expended
in the gathering of data and
preparation of maps to be used
in the zoning study. Planning
Commission Secretary, Mrs. Leon
Bentley, has been responsible ior
the printing of the copies of
the ordinances as well as the
letters which went out on the
water study and for this we es
pecially thank her.

Resource Waste
Can Be Slowed
By Conservation
Needless waste of our natural
resources can be slowed down
and eventually halted through
the Joint efforts of the land
owner and the rest of the public
by use of the Agricultural Con
servation Program (ACT), says
David McLeod of the Agricult
ural Stabilization and Conser
vation Service.
"The ACP is a partnership of
cost-sharing between the land
owners and the general public In
an effort to conserve our great
natural resources." he said.
"As time Is the eroding factor
in rhaneinc vouth to old age,
so it is with the erosion of our
natural resources. Tilled or an
protected soil is eroded away in
time, by the wind and water,
If protective conservation meas
ures are not taken. Each year
thousands of tons of our finest
too soil is lost down the drain
from erosion."
McLeod said that ACP is in
tended to provide the Incentive
to establish and maintain need
ed conservation practices on our
crop and woodlands. Practices
providing means for conserva
tion of our soil, water, wood
land, and wildlife are cost
shared with farmers up to one
half the cost.
"We should all remember that
to conserve our resources, meas
ures will have to be taken be
fore erosion gains the position
that conservation is too late,"
McLeod warned.
He pointed out that the 19G-1
ACP offers muny practices that
may be applied to the land
where erosion is started or where
erosion may start if conserving
measures are not taken. Prac
tices such as contour stripcrop
ping and diversion ditches, and
terraces can effectively reduce
erosion from wind and water on
cropland.
Seedings of permanent grasses
and legumes effectively arrest
erosion on rangcland. Land lev
eling, dams aiul other measures
may be talu n to conserve water.
Befoie erosion starts is the
time to apply conservation meas
ures, McLiod said.
"Dun't wait until the horse
gets out to close the barn door.
Use ACP assistance while it is
available," he concluded.
cil, to Mrs. Houghton, who has
faithfully recorded, besides
carrying on much of the corres
pondence to the Chief of Police,
who has constantly been on call,
I sincerely tender my apprec
iation. Your cooperation in be
half of the city has been a real
inspiration.
Respectfully submitted,
Chester A. Wilson, Mayor"
During the meeti n g, Mrs.
Houghton read a letter received
from the Oregon State Highway
Department stating that they
would not reduce the speed limit
through the city of Irrigon.

National Lamb
Consumption Low,
Needs Promotion
By ESTHER KIRMIS
What is lamb and what is
mutton? Lamb, according to the
American Lamb Council, is meat
from an animal less than a year
old; mutton is the meat of an
animal Vk years old or more.
Leonard Schwarz of the Court
Street Market in Heppner, called
me the other day and told me
he was going to promote lamb at
his meat counter this coming
week. "Too many people don't
know how good it can be," he
said.
Long term statistics show that
lamb has a high rate of con
sumption in the New England
States, New York and Califor
nia. Almost 707c of the total
lamb supply is consumed by
only 30 of the country's pop
ulation. Why? Because of mental
complexes that have their roots
in mistaken ideas.
Here are some mistaken ideas:
Lamb, to some people, carries
with it the concept of being a
delicate feminine food.
Housewives actually shy away
from the lesser known cuts when
thpv arc rrnar iHipiilniiQlv lnu
Lamb has been considered as
a luxury item.
Other consumers think of
lamb as a meat dish which is
strictly for certain nationality.
Lamb is often thought of as a
"health" food for the very old
or young.
Lamb is like mutton and I
had my fill of mutton in the
service, say servicemen.
Lamb is a seasonal meat, tood
only for special occasions.
Here are some answers to these
mistaken ideas:
Lamb is not a feminine food
it has much or more nutritional
value and energy as any protein
food.
We thought we could only buy
lamb chops and legs, while in
rpnlitv thpro ara mnrp than a
dozen cuts of lamb, such as rib-
lets, neck slices, lamb patties
or shanks that are tender, tasty,
and nutritions and economical.
Because of its nutritional
value and ease of digestion,
lamb is some times thought of
ac n "hpalth fnnrl " It's tastp
appeal and nutritional value are
good for all.
Lamb is not necessarily a nat
ionality dish The American
Lamb Council is engaged in a
program to show the consumer
that lamb has been a part of
the American scene since early
colonial days.
Lamb has suffered because it
has been confused with mutton.
The "Lamb" that World War
II servicemen in the South Pa
cific grew to dislike so intensely
was not lamb but mutton. Their
dislike has influenced their fam
ilies and now present a real
problem to the retailer.
Lamb seasons have changed.
During March and April lamb
cuts are mainly from mature, fed
lambs. During the summer and
early fall, "milk-fat" lamb are
nn the market. Late fall and
winter bring fed lambs, so you
see you can have lamb at any
time.
Mrs. Betty Ashbaugh, former
home economist with the Amer
ican Lamb Council, was in the
county several years ago and
put on a demonstration of how
lamb might be used. She also
left me a Paula Owen cookbooK
on "lamb" which you can see
nt thp rnnntv Deems Ollice.
One especially good recipe she
gave me was barbecued lamb
riblets. Would you like to try
it?

Crippled Boy Wins Sports Letters
With Assist from March of Dimes
A boy who can scarcely
walk because of arthritis
wins a letter in athletics.
Impossible, you say. Not
if the lad has the grit of
Tim Ewald.
Even though this 17-year-old
from Minneapolis can barely
"inch" along with the help of
a cane, he wears the monogram
of Golden Valley High School
in both football and track.
-How come? How is all this
athletic activity possible when
it takes this likable youngster
as much as 15 minutes merely
to tie his shoelaces?
You must look back seven
years to find the answer. As the
second-oldest of five sons, Tim
at the age of 10 could outrun
all his brothers and even his
parents, Graydon and Diane
Ewald.
At touch football, no one
could lay a hand on him. Tim
dreamed of a high school and
college career in football and
Then, at the age of 10, came
disaster. One night the boy was
struck -by the indescribably
severe pains of rheumatoid ar
thritis throughout his body. His
temperature soared. For long
months he had to be hospital
ized in body casts and treated
with cortisone.
Aided by March of Dimes
Now, after seven years of the
disease, Tim is slowly regain
ing some' mobility thanks in
great part to physical therapy
given him at the March of
Dimes Arthritis Treatment
Center in the University of
Minnesota Medical School. This
treatment is conscientiously re
peated at home.
Much as the boy yearned to
play, such strenuous sports as
football and track were not for
him. It was all he could do just
to hobble from class to class.
'But in his freshman year at
high school he resolved to be
as close to sports as his crippled
condition permitted.
Tim made a private vow that
he would become a team man
ager. He made it in his freshman
year as manager of the foot
ball squad. He made it again
in his sophomore year. Last

year, his third, he managed the
track team. He won his letters
in two sports.
Tim won't talk much about
what his duties are. He's an ex
cessively modest youngster but,
even if it does embarrass the
bov, his father says:
"I looked into this with some
care because it would be dan
gerous for Tim to overdo. I
found out that these manager
ships aren't snap jobs given by
the players to a classmate they
feel sorry for. The work is
tough Tim goes along in the
team bus to games all around
the state, he checks equipment
and keeps the players' records,
he's a timekeeper, and so on.
But he thrives on it and its
far better therapy than gnaw
ing his nails because of no con
tact with sports."
Even with his heavy sched

management, home exercises
and weekly visits to the March

chiefly cartoons and caricatures
for which he seems to have
promising talent. He thinks that
someday he might like to be a
sports cartoonist.
Faces Surgery
Will he walk again normally?
It's quite possible. This year,
after graduation from high
school, he may undergo hip
surgery. Dr. Keith N. Drum
mond, assistant director of the
March of Dimes center, ex
plains that Tim's hips are now
locked in a bent position caused
by contraction of the tendons
and muscles and by inflamma
tion of the hip joints. Under
favorable circumstances, sur
gery could release and lengthen
these shortened tissues.
Whether crippled for life c
on his feet again, which now
seems likely, Tim is determined
to continue working actively in
sports. That's about all he'll
say. But you know that this
quiet and resolute youngster
means it.
