HEPPNEH GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday. Mery 14, 1964
Election Friday
To Pick Nominees
For All Offices
(Continued from page 1)
Nixon, Nelson Rockefeller, Wil
liam W. Scranton and Margaret
Chase Smith, while President
Lyndon Johnson stands alone on
the Democratic ballot.
Among candidates t'or dele
gates to the national Democratic
convention, second district, Is
Al Lamb of Heppner, who has
gained considerable prestige
around the state as campaign
manager for Al Ullman and
through his work as manager of
Morrow County Wheat Growers
and for farmer cooperatives.
In the race for position' seven
of the Supreme Court, nonpart
isan, Judge Edward H. Howell
of John Day has been drawing
favor of eastern Oregonians bu.
will have strong contention
from Judge William S. Fort ofj
Eugene, Judge Ralph M. Hoi-,
man of Clackamas county, and!
Attorney Jason Lee of Salem.
An unusual pressure is exerted
this year on election returns be
cause of the clamor of television
station and wire services for re
ports on the Republican presi
dential preference. An elaborate
system has been set up in the
county to get early Incomplete
returns. However, counting
boards have a big task ahead
of them with the long ballots
to count, and it is not expected
that complete returns will be
available or known before Sat
urday morning.
Promotion Told
Morrow county friends of B. C.
Pinckney, manager of the Ore
gon Bank's branch in The Dalles,
will be interested to learn that
he has been promoted to assist
ant vice president of the bank
and has been assigned to the
New Business Development de
partment of the Bank's head of
fice. He will continue to have
his headquarters in The Dalles.
Announcement of the promotion
was made by C. F. Adams, president.
May 18 Deadline
For Tax Appeals
Oregon property taxpay e r s
have until Monday, May 18, to
appeal this year's assessments
to their county boards of equali
zation, the State Tax Commission
points out.
Each county board convened
on Monday, May 11, to begin its
annual review of assessments.
Under Oregon law a property
owner may appear in person or
be represented by an attorney
or other agent before the board
when it considers petitions for
reduction of assessments.
Taxpayers cannot wait until
receiving their tax statements In
the fall to appeal their assess
ments. If they do not know the
assessed value of their property
at this time, they can learn it
at the county assessor's office.
If a taxpayer feels that the
assessor's appraised value of his
property exceeds market value,
he may appeal by petition to
the county board of equaliza
tion. Forms for this purpose are
available in the assessor's office.

Board Purchases
Two School Buses;
Talks of Ag Shops
Two new school buses were
purchased following opening of
bids by the directors of Morrow
County School District R-l Mon
day night. Successful bidders
were Heppner Auto Sales, which
submitted a bid of $6,033.30 for
a 54-passenger Ford bus with
Superior body, delivered in
Heppner, and with trade-in; and
Farley Motor Company, which
offered a 54-passenger GMC with
Superior body for $6,294, deliv
ered in Heppner with trade-in.
Others submitting bids were
Lexington Implement Company
and Fulleton Chevrolet Company.
In another important item of
business, Director Howard Cleve
land urged that a meeting of
a committee to investigate possi
bilities for financing construc
tion of High school shops at
Heppner and lone be held soon
with the hope that something
could be done this year. A meet
ing was called for Tuesday night
with shop teachers to be present.
Principal Hillard Brown of the
Heppner Grade school reported
on work that has been ordered
to be done by the state fire
marshal at Heppner and lone
elementary schools for fire pro
tection. He discussed sprinkler
sysiems wnicn could be install
ed in the schools and urged ac
tion soon. The board did not act
on this matter, however, pending
more siuuy.
Because of complications on
division of property ownership
at the Pine City school, the
board voted favorably on a mo
tion by Director Irvin Rauch that
the property be withdrawn from
sale. The board previously had
offered it for sale but found this
ditticult to culminate because of
clauses in the deed to the prop
erty. A letter from the State Depart
ment of Education was read to
the board approving leveling of
land at Heppner elementary
school by a private individual in
exchange for part of the George
property. The leveled land would
be used as playground area.
However, some directors felt that
the offer of the private party
had now been withdrawn. The
board nevertheless passed a mo
tion to authorize such a trans-
action if any reliable private
party showed interest in the
proposition.
Ayres Return
From Trip Abroad
Mr. and Mrs. Earl Ayres re
turned home early last week
from a two weeks trip to Europe
that they won in a contest on
sales of Mercury automobiles.
They report a very enjoyable
time and especially enjoyed vis
iting Italy.
Earl said that he particularly
was interested in visiting the
old Roman ruins and other
places of historical significance
in that country.
France was not so impressive
because the people did not seem
to be friendly, he said.
They stopped at the World's
Fair in New York and found
some of the exhibits very im
pressive, but Ayres' opinion was
that it was considerably sur
passed by the Seattle World's
Fair.
The Heppner couple made the
trip by air to Europe with other
Mercury dealers around the
country who had qualified for
the trip.
Cemetery District
Budget Vote Slated
Voters in the lone-Lexington
Cemetery Maintenance district
will cast ballots on the district
budget Friday when they go to
vote in the primary election,
Robert Abrams, attorney, states.
The district does not have an
established tax base, and voters
will decide whether to levy
$14,875 for the maintenance and
operation of the cemeteries in
the district. Abrams said that
the amount is less than that
levied last year and, if passed,
it will require a levy of be
tween one and two mills for tax
payers in the district. At least
five cemeteries are included.
The budget provides for em
ployment of sextons and con
tinued improvement of the cem
eteries with " some fencing included.
Mr. and Mrs. Flovd Hntrhina
spent thp nast wook
to Salt Lake City, Utah, where
mey visited witn their daugh
ter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs.
Larry Angel. The Hutchins went

fine trip despite a close call
when their car hit snow in
rounding a bond and went into
a skid. It threatened to send
them plummeting over a cliff,
but Hutchins was able to regain
control of the vehicle without
accident.
