An Impressive example of this truth Is furnished by the com
munity of Eureka, in northern California. While theoretical
arguments whirl around the Lssuo of safety in nuclear power
plants and have resulted in the delay of needed nuclear plant
construction. Eureka has been enjoying the benefits of nu
clear generated electricity for seven years. The citizens of
the commmunity arc so proud of the nuclear plant, which
a West Coast firm put into service In their area in 193, that
they persuaded the company to Install a sign on the road by
the plant declaring that it is a nuclear power plant.
A staff writer for the Monterey, California, Peninsula
Herald, decided to determine for himself how the people of
Eureka felt about living as neighbors of atomic energy. The
word given to him by Eureka civic leaders was, "Don't worry
about it." Before the plant was built, the people of Eureka
were admittedly concerned, since It Is located abotu five miles
from the heart of town, and an elementary school Is only a
short distance from the plant. The Herald staff writer des
cribes the mechanics and the safety factors of nuclear power
generation. He also quoted the opinions and findings of lo
cal leaders on the subject. The president of a local school
board reports, "Parents are now accepting the plant as they
would any plant." A Radio-TV station owner commented,
". . . No one has challenged the safety factor." A local edi
tor remarked, "Several years ago, the Idea of the plant caused
a rash of letters to the editor. But . . . The plant is pretty
well accepted now by everyone."
Not long ago, the citizens of another West Coast commu
nity voted a four-year moratorium on the construction of a
proposed nuclear plant In their vicinity. They, like other peo
ple all over the nation, could profit from the experience of
Eureka, California. As it is, by their vote, they have raised
the specter of power shortage In their region and have an
nounced their intention to deny the fruits of nuclear tech
nological progress for at least four years.

Over The
Tee Cup
Br MARIE McQUARRIE
Our Saturday evening golf
play being started at 6:00 p.m.,
may have been the reason for
such a good turnout at Willow
Creek Country Club. Twenty,
eight people played the golf that
was planned and there were
others on the course that came
down to play just regulation
golf. Sounds like most didn't
play "Just ordinary regulation"
golf, and that Is an understate
ment. An obstacle course was
planned by the hosts of the eve
ning, the Bob Jepsens and the
Clint McQuarrles. This wasn't
really a serious game and was
meant for the fun and laughs
In It. For example, tee-offs were
made from standing on a blown
tip inncrtube( sitting in a chair,
right foot In a bucket, left foot
on a box with a 9 Iron and
blindfolded. (Some said they
made better drives blindfolded
than they make with both eyes
open). Other odd situations
were, putting with a wood, us
ing the same club all the way
on one hole, even to putting
out. These things sound silly,
but It is fun and different to
play when skill doesn't count
and unusual antics are the gen
eral run of the game.
La Verno Van Marter, Sr., and
Ray Massey, partners, won first.
Judy Rothrock and Dale Boner
won with the most strokes tak
en. Ken Rothrock and his wife,
JUuy, were here visiting the
Terry Thompsons and came
down to join In the game.
About 40 hungry people were
at the barbecue pit to fry their
steaks, when the families of
those playing all got together.

There were 7 ladies down to

Let us stand up and be counted
for our God and our country.
To every citizen of America
I have this to say: Power and in
fluences and deceitful voices are
presenting old and young minds
with nerniexinc ana iimkinmi
problems, trying to destroy oc
lief In God, destroy aecency a
nd
honesty. To be acsiroyca
whitewash lies that lead I
to
into
paths of destruction, these so
cial reformers caning inem
selves Black Power. Militants
are not interested In helping the
Negro or any other society. Their
goal is to bring down the United
states to their level, which Is
led by Communism. They want
a communistic wonu. iney are
nut to hulld a Soviet America.
Their aims arc selfish. Hatred
no love for God or country.
This Ls Satan's scheme and
he has been auite busy for years
and centuries to bring the world
under the sway of Communism.
Their bait ls to make people
dissatisfied, to hate each other,
destroy the beautiful love of par
ents for children, and children
for parents, destroy belief in
God and sneer at the precious
name of Jesus. To destroy mod
esty and plant In its place free
love, free sex, no morals.) Those
were way back In grandma's
days. Anything goes new so
long as you can get away with
it, is their motto.
The Communists and Atheists
are good destroyers of truth,
thev are excellent In white
washing a lie. I read if it hadn't
been for ulmost 14 billion in
economic assistance pumped In
to Russia hv the United States
since the Bolshevik take over in
1917, there would be no Soviet
Socialist Renublic today. We
know Russia is out to take over
our beautiful country as they
have taken over other beautiful
and peaceful loving countries,
but let's remember that God Is
still on his throne and true heart
felt prayer has more power than
nil the hnmbs and missiles this
world can offer. So mothers and
fathers tell your children about
jpsno. tell them about God and
his power. Go to Sunday School
and church with them. Alter au
church represents God. It's his
house. He will meet you there
and fill your soul with peace
and Joy the world can't give. He
will forgive your sins. God is not
dead. He is a wonderful God and
he loves us more that we can
ever know. He proved that when
he cave us His Son to suffer on
the cruel cross of Calvary and
die for our sins. His blood
cleanses us from sin. His love
is ptemal. He makes us his heirs.
Young people, stand up for him,
be courageous. The DiacK power
militants will disagree with me,
but It's true. Be a real Christ
ian don't destroy your schools.
It takes money to reouna.
trioht thp Atheists and Com
munists with the truth. Save
your country. Don t be ashamed
to name the name of Jesus. He
is the door to heaven. Let Him
be your leader. Moses used all
the excuses that we use to
avoid the divine call to service:
not strong enough; can't speak
well; relatives need our neip;
but then he stopped reselling
nnrl snld I will do What you
want me to do God. God used
him to glorify his name and by
hia faith In find he led slaves
to their freedom and establish
ed for his own people and for
us the old testament founda
tion of our religious life. God
is calling men and women to

Notes from Linda
July 6, 1970
Dear Mom and all:
Linda Cooper is alive and well
in Moers (Germany). We went
by chartered bus across Mass.,
and most of Conn., to the still-to-be-completed
airport of Brad
ley Field, Hartford, Conn. On
the plane there were six seats,
to n row. of course. The take-off
was fabulous. The shaking of
the plane and the roar it was
wonderful when added to the
electric excitement in the air,
and watching the houses get
smaller.
Between talking to everyone,
o-pttinfr drinks for everyone, try
ing to sleep, and waiting for us
to overtake the darkness, the
trip passed quickly. It was very
interesting going from day to
night and from night to day.
Up ahead was darkness and be-
ind lieht. I switched seats
about 20 times, but I was by
the window as we went over
TrolanH and Eneland. though it
was too dark to see Ireland and
the clouds obscured part of Eng
land. My first impression of Europe
is green patchwork fields, rows
of planted trees, forests, and
stones. I loved the landing much
more than the take-off. Brus
sels International airport is very
beautiful, except that the lug

al of the groups, but my group
had to wait We didn't go
through customs, but just took
our baggago to the sidewalk
u.her we waited for about hulf
an hour and when the bus came,
we waited for another half hour.
You must realize Mom and all.
that this entire time I had on
ly one shoe on because I couiu
n' thp other one over my
h n.ln pp. (Linda had sur
gery before she lelt tne smi
f,,p nn in. crown toe-nail.)
While waiting for the bus to
leave, I was watching tne trai
rip flour hv. I reallv don't un
demand how people drive over
here. The people aart acrox un
street and the cars zip by. There
appears to be no speed limit.
Very few American cars, uui
or,LC the street was a Shell
station. It was hard for me to
convince myself that I was noi
in America that I reallv was In
Belgium. Finally the bus took
off and we held onto the seats
ahead.
Brussels is an Interesting city.
I think I wouldn't mind living
thpro Th,.re arp manv old build
ings, that, nevertheless, look
nice. Around balconies, down
town nrp iron pralines, which
are very nice looking. The old
buildings are usually only four
nr flup stories hieh. Then one
turns a corner, and up comes a
new apartment building, ouiii,
onep np.nln. of stone. We went
to the Bristol-Midi Hotel. I don't
know how to begin describing it.
it is old. Straicht ud for four
floors, 85 steps, 8 flights of
stairs to the top of the notei
ua m v mom. Quite a surprise!
To have to carry 40 lb. up those
steep steps alter neing awane
fop 94 hours. Is auite a shock
to the system, but when we
started up the stairs, we am
not know Inst how far ud they
were. Another surprise was the
rooms. They were quaint, quae
uplike anything you would find
in America. There were two
single beds, two wooden chairs,
a wardrobe, a sink, and a mir
ror. The rooms were not small,
but they were not overly large,
cither The windows ODened out
to a drop of about 100 ft. There
were about four wool DianKeis
on thp hed and a QUilt. and
pillow was very hard and sheet
was placed over it, so one couia
not Bnucrtrle un to it. The bed,
on the other hand was very soft.
At 1:00 my group met for
luneh in the dininn room. We
had soup first. It was fun being
served the soup at the table.
The rest of the meal we served
ourselves. After lunch, we went
to the train station to change
then we bought
some bread, cheese, and sand
wich meat, which we made in
to sandwiches at the hotel. For
the rest of the afternoon we
slept. Then we went for a 50

wasn't really that long and the
night was nice, l naa a snoe

Dear Editor:
Enclosed is a writeup on an
Oregon boy whom you all
know. It was in the local area
paper.
P. M. Jim Driscoll whom I
met in Heppner a couple of
years ago, although I had been
in the C. C. Camp with him but
did not know him at the time.
Well, Jim sent me a Christmas
card a while back and said that
Doc Severinsen had married a
girl from Heppner, so this
should interest the local citizens.
According to the writeup "Doc"
has played with some good
bands in his time.
Also have heard from' Joseph
ine Mahoney Baker whom I
have been writing to but have
not met as yet Well, Josephine
is in a hospital in Portland at
this time may be laid up ior
a while.
Well, this is it for now so
take care, regards to all.
