OPEN LETTER TO
HON. GOV. TOM McCALL
My most sincere appreciation
and highest commendation for
the remarkable, Just, worthy po
sition, you have taken to pro
test the importation of Portu
guese bull fights into Oregon.
We have great need for more
Legislators like you. True good
ness requires us to respect the
lives and rights of all creatures.
Mankind has a medieval mind
and a genius for dreaming up
sporting events involving ani
mals, such as wrestling with
toothless, declawcd bears, dog
fights, cock fights, coon-on-a-log,
chasing helpless wild lift
In deep snow with snowmobiles,
steer-busting, one-sided rodeo
acts, hooking and tying sheep.
And now the Portuguese bull
fights, as a new dollar-making
gimmick to entertain the gull
lible public, because the recent
decline in P. I. rodeo patronage
is admitted.
It's most interesting to note
that Editor Martin of the Eu
gene Register Guard argues
that the bull fight was sched
uled partly to eliminate com
plaints about cruelty to animals
at the exposition rodeos held in
the past. He said, "The bull
fight Is much more compatible."
These bulls are restricted and
abused no way close to what
happens to rodeo bulls." How
alKJut that for a change? When
rodeo promoters admit rodeo
cruelty.
Many thanks to all concern
ed: Humane societies with lead
ers like Graziella Boucher, War
ren Cox and Gene Burgess who
have raised their voices against
more animal cruelty being add
ed to Oregon's entertainment
list.
Would like to quote a line
of Billy Graham's. "I believe
all Christians should feel a re
sponsibility for all God's crea
tures. Love for animals is in
stinctive in normal human be
ings, and to mistreat dumb an
imals is not only un-Christian it
is Inhuman,"
To substitute one $$ evil for
another as Mr. Martin suggests,
is compassionlcss and merciless.'
Most sincerely, .
Lois Winchester
To the Editor:
You know, I've looked all
around the county for a Toyota
dealer, I wonder where these of
fields buy them? Seems like if
they are good for personal econ
omy, they ought to be good for
public economy and we might
be seeing them sporting county
and possibly even state emb
lems. W. W. Weatherford
To the Editor:
I went to the football game
at Heppner last Friday night
and saw a Mustang team, nine
teen deep and generously laced
with freshmen and sophomores,
fight their hearts out against a
heavier and more experienced
team from Elgin.

Although those kids lost the
game by a score of 22 to 0, they
won something that will slick
with them a lot longer the ad
miration and respect of their
community.
For what it Was worth, I want
them to know that I am very
proud of them, and that they
all stand about a foot taller
In my sight.

Dear Editor:
Portland seems different than
"when I was a boy".
Downtown on one corner are
young monks in yellow robes,
shaved heads with a dangle of
hair at the back, girls in long
dresses all chanting "Hare'
Krishna" over and over and hip
pies of course.
Up our way for awhile was
a huge sign "Topless lunch"
pasted on a black tavern. I was
never sure who was topless,
waitress or ?? but I'm sure
it wasn't the customers as 1
only saw young men enter. Now
the sign is gone.

P.S. A tang of winter in the air.
Dear Editor:

His daughter, Anabel Allison,

His granddaughters, Jan and
Jo have also been up. Jan is

Weed Control
Chemicals Talked
New weed control chemicals
were the main topics of discus
sion at a recent meeting held
at the Lexington Grange Hall,
reports Harold Kerr, Morrow
County Extension Agent.
Don Rydrych, Pendleton Ex
periment Station Weed Re
searcher, discussed the results
of his weed plots throughout
the Columbia Basin.
Chemicals which appear to
have been superior to 2,1 D in
the triaLs include Lorox, Igran,
Maloran, Broxomil, Karmex and
Broxomil, Lorox and Broxomil,
and Brute plus Uran.
All of these chemicals yield
ed from 3 to 6 bushel more than
the 2,1-D plots. Not all of these
chemicals are registered for field
use this year, but should be by
next season.
A serious weed pest in the
county is knotweed. Tests indi
cate that Broxomil plus Dicam
ba gives the best results. Spray
ing should be in February or
when the knotweed is in the 2
lcaf stage.
Timing is extremely important
when using these newer chem
icals. Be sure to read the label
or check with the chemical rep
resentative or Extension office
if you are not sure of the prop
er time for spraying.
Many growers have been ask
ing about cheatgrass control.
None of the recommended chem
icals give 100 control, but eco
nomical benefits may be obtain
ed if you have a serious infes
tation. Igran and Lorox may be ben
eficial if applied after the cheat
grass has sprouted but before
emergence. This is on recently
seeded land.
Treflan can be used as a pre
plant treatment. The chemical
must be incorporated with a har
row or similar tillage tool.
I.P.C. is a winter fallow treat
ment applied on the stubble to
reduce cheat growth and reduce
tillage needed in the spring.
