Hail to Our Royalty!
Coronation time is at hand for Queen Erna Lynn Win
chester of the Morrow County Fair and Rodeo court and for
Princesses Verina. Barbara, Susan and Mardee. The event will
be Saturday night at the rodeo grounds.
Official reign of this comely court will start as of that
time, but the girls have been serving the county all through
the summer with their appearances In other communities.
At each of their appearances they have won the hearts
and approval of the crowds. Many compliments have drifted
back to the effect that our people should be very proud of
this court, not only because of their attractiveness, but be
cause of their personalities, their conduct, and the skill In
horsemanship they have displayed.
These compliments serve to heighten the pride that all of
us in the home area have In them.
Jaycees have been making a special effort to provide a
fitting program and proper ceremony for the coronation, and
it is expected that a large corwd will be on hand Saturday
night to pay homage to the queen and princesses.
Hail to our royalty! Their pretty smiles and winsome ways
make them fine ambassadors to other communities and ex
cellent hostesses to visitors here. May their reign be most
pleasant and enjoyable.

Wes Sherman
Ll'CI JOHNSON of Washington,
D. C, the president's daugh
ter, was married Saturday with
pomp and fanfare and national
color television coverage. She
and her husband took the as
sumed name "Krisbie" to try to
obtain privacy on their honey
moon. Judy Smith of Heppner, Ore
Ron, was also married Saturday
in a pretty ceremony In the
Methodist church with no fan
fare. She and her husband. Ken,
left on their wedding trip with
no reporters on their heels.
If we were a young girl, we'd
rather be Judy than Luci.
AS TO Lucl's wedding, we'll say
It was a good thing It didn't
occur at the same time as the
Clay-London fight, which was
on the same day. This would
have caused some battles on
what TV program would be
viewed. Mommas have a hard
time resisting the opportunity
to watch a wedding, and pop
pas could care less. And some
poppas have a hard time resist
ing viewing a heavyweight ti
tle fight, and most mommas
could care less.
We'd just as soon watch a
toothpaste commercial as to
view either.
XAV1ER CUGAT. 66. must fig
ure that if Frank Sinatra and
Justice Douglas can do it, so
can he. So he ups and marries
a girl in her 20's, saying, "Some
men are old at 20, and some are
young at 40. 1 am one of those."
Sounds like the band leader has
left himself open on a case of
an indefinite antecedent May
be he was old at 20.
SO THE Fred Gimbels drove 300
miles to play golf on the Wil
low Creek course! No, that's not
exactly right, but when they
were here Monday on their va
cation stop, they did play golf
on the course, and it was the
first time Fred had set foot on
it after they had lived here
all those years.
You see, when Fred and Betty
lived here, they had no inter
est in golf and spoke of it with
some disdain. But somewnere,
after leaving here for Cottage
Grove, then Yakima and now
Lincoln City with PP&L the golf
bug done bit, and they have it
bad. Rumor has it that son
Rick, now a six-footer, beats
his dad on the links, but we
wouldn't want to start any fam
ily arguments.
TRAGEDY STRUCK the Odd
Fellows' United Nation Pil
grimage last week when the bus
in which the Northwest winners
were riding was involved in an
accident in Minnesota, enroute
home. A woman from Idaho,
one of the chaperones was kill
ed and several students were
injured.
There was a report that the
Helix girl, who won the right to
make the trip in competition at
Pendleton earlier this year, was
hurt, but her name was not
among those listed in newspa
per accounts as requiring treat
ment. Kathy Melby competed for the
right to make the trip but lost
in the Pendleton competition,
it mav be recalled.
Pete McMurtry, who has been
an ardent supporter for the
IOOF United Pilgrimage here,
said that this is the first time
such an accident has marred
the trip. It is to be hoped that
this will not discourage the
lodge from continuing the fine
venture.
LABOR UNIONS are now giving

Today she's a little girl, cozy in the comfort of her home,
happy in the companionship of her kittens. Tomorrow, or so
it seems, she's grown up . . . and needing all the things a

would be a thought for the
Heppner FT A. which has had
trouble getting manv out for
meetings. But we doubt if their
dues, unlike the unions' are
high enough to stand the cost.
THERE'S A nice pictorial lav
out in the August issue of
Ruralite telling of the work of
the Morrow County Jaycees with
emphasis on their sponsorship
of Little league here, pictures
are included of the Braves
and the Indians, as well
as one of some of the Jawces
wives, one of Dr. L. D. tl'mp)
Tibbies, and another of Prest

President Wayne Harsln in con
nection with their sign project.
Well agree, It's nice to have
those Jaycees on the Job!
AN ITEM in The Forest Log,
published by the State IV.
partment of Forest rv. reports,
"Recently the department re
ceived a postcard addressed to
'Mr. Warden Fire." Now to be
consistent, that company in
communicating with an allv of
the department should address
him as, "Mr. Bear Smokey.' "'
MAYBE WE SHOULD dedicate
the following storv to the sev
eral newly weds in the current
wave of August weddings here:
An old freight conductor on
his 50th wedding anniversary
told the story of how his wife
cured htm of a once terrible
temper.
"We had been married Just
about three months when I
came home hungry, onlv to find
burned food on the table. Mad
as could be. I threw mv plate
out the window. My wife hes
itated for only a fraction of a
second and then she grabbed
up the serving dishes, knives,
forks, spoons, cups and saucers
and even the tablecloth and
threw them all out of the win
dow. Then she propped her
hands on her hips ami declared:
