Trailer Spaces Going in at Park Five trailer spaces on concrete slabs are now being constructed in Cutsforth Park. Orville Cuts forth. county narks commission chairman, said Wednesday. The spaces, across the creek from the picnic ground, will have electrical and water hook ups and sewer connections, he said. The park is now served by a power line from Columbia Basin Electric Cooperative. A new water main is also being laid to serve the park. It is equivalent to a 2-inch main and will run some 1400 feet to a spring. As of Wednesday, 600 feet of the pipe had been laid with another 800 feet to go. Work is being done by How ard Keithley under contract. Funds for the work were budg eted by the county. Matching funds from the federal govern ment may be available for re imbursement, and the local money may be expended with out the effect of nullifying the matching money, Cutsforth said. Septic tanks and drain fields are being installed to serve the sewer connections. While it is expected that work on the trailer will be fin ished some time next week, they will not be ready for pub lic use at that time. Approach es and roadways have to be provided from the Coal Mine hill road. One of the trailer spaces will be used by a caretaker. It is expected that fees will be charged for use of the spaces, probably at the rate of $2 for one night's use, or $10 per week. Since the park is a county park and not one of the U. S. Forest Service, the federal con servation cards will not permit holders to use the spaces. 1st, 9th Graders Must Have Exams Parents are reminded that Oregon School Law requires all incomirg first and ninth grade students to have a pre-school physical examination and to pre; ent the completed form at school at the beginning of the school year, according to Mrs. Lowell Chally, R.
