The article you printed concern ing our lost dog was very good. I'm writing to Inform you that we now have our dog back. He was lost on Sunday, Oct. 17 as you know. That same afternoon the Burton family of Hood Riv er were deer hunting up upper Khea Creek road when they found our dog full of porcupine quills up and down both sides and his back. They doctored him up and later that same day they took him home with them. Monday , while we were up In Heppner looking for our dog they were contacting tiro Mult. Co. dog pound to find out who Coco was registered to and then they tried to call us. Tuesday morning at 8:15 the Mult. Co. dog pound called us to tell us that they had received over the teletype that our dog was in Hood River. We immediately went to Hood River and picked rvuvi nn nt the Burton residence.

Justine VVeatherford came up with that groovey "and bit" . . new hands, old hands hap py hands, etc. She also thought of the free baby sitting which the Fmpire Builders and Rain bow Girls agreed to do so will ingly. We were most appreciative of Principal Jim Bier's cooperation. Special thanks to Wade Both well who even mopped the floor for us before we arranged the chairs and to Mark Samples who cleaned up afterwards. Make It Music The program kept falling down around our ears. Finally we called on our guests for some numbers. Dennis Cass, an appealing tenor, did a fun num her to Inez Meador who it was plain to see is a favorite with the young ones as well as us olders. David Mann filled in with a trumpet solo. He said he hadn't played his trumpet much this past year and his lips were in no condition. Ho was terrifici anvway and it was very evi dent that he knew what he was doing and how he must sound when he's really in con dition! A highlight was hearing Ola Mae Groshens play. I'd only heard her as an accompanist. Charlie, who always sweat blood and tears through the kids' pi ano recitals, said "Ola Mae was worth the price of admission. If she sounded like that on that school piano how would she sound on a grand piano." Ter Walthtnsen said he'd play a piano number if his wife didn't have to go to the hospital about then . . . and she did and he didn't! We'll hope to hear him another time. I was so concerned about the length of our program but when we started giving people infor mation about what is going on in Heppner, there was no stop ping. Who would have ever be Jieved there were so many or ganizations? Then I felt better after guests stayed and visited so long af terwards and enjoyed more punch and coffee and those good cookies! I already have an idea going for next year that is different and won't be so long. There are two things coming out of the affair that I'd like to see added. That is an exten sion for the microphone so that programs could be more flex ible and a coat rack in the hall. Came Time The Morrow County School board members are individual istic but they work together Just very well. The agenda was a shorter one this montn ana one of them brought up about whv didn't Heppner have tne Greyhound to go to Moro? Well it seems Riverside had a long er trip, to Huntington, so they got the Greyhound. Then someone asked about a Riverside-lone game said to have started a half an hour late. It seems it depends on which schedule you're looking and it did start on time . . . all of this was conversation around about and back and forth. Irv Rauch brought down the house when he said "That's all right I went to Moro a week early for a game one time"! 1 T. i & ... JT" I - 7 . 1 ' ' , . j ' i. y.

Heppner Ills Appear To Be Universal Grace Drake. Morrow Coun ty Juvenile Director, was in Portland last week to attend the Oregon Corrections Association Annual Conference. The most outstanding address was given by Joseph Coughlin, tne assist ant director of Juvenile Services for the state of Illinois. He drew an analogy between the discrep ancies of our own adult society to what is done and what is professed; such as factory work ers' pilfering, drivers ignoring traffic regulations and shop lifting for which the consumer has to pay. He noted communi tv sanction of certain luvenile offenses such as Juvenile drink ing done by a certain selected group of society in any town which never reaches court. Aa interuptive demonstration took place during the address of the warden of San Ouentin. This was in response to the Aug. 17 disturbance in wnicn seven were killed. Members of the Portland Black Panthers car ried placards, chanted and shouted rude remarks about the warden and establishment as they circulated around the room and among the tables during the luncheon. There were some sympathizers in the audience but generally the demonstrators were ignored. Mrs. Drake feels as others that demonstrations such as this are part of our times and will be tolerated. Jacob Tanzer, head of Ore con's new department of Hu man Resources spoke regarding the direction or Childrens' serv ices in the state of Oregon. The general topic of the con ference was "Diversion". Diver sion is defined as alternatives to the criminal Justice system. The object is to either keep the offender in society or get him back into society rather man kwnin? him In isolation in an artificial world. This is for both Juvenile and adult. In her time as Morrow Coun ty Juvenile Director, Mrs. Drake has attended four such confer ences and found this one the most interesting. Gov. McCall gave the opening address. ut and Mrs. Frank Ostoin. lone, entertained 23 guests In, honor of their daughter J. J.s first birthday.
