Harold Kerr has volunteered to travel jinjtiini', mivwhere to speak before any croup that is inter- ted ii hearing C'f the plan. He will be Hft-ompanied by a member of the County Planning Commission. Every program tiaiiinan is urged to line up ft speaking dale as soon as l .-it li for "Mr. Kerr anil Company." This comprehensive plan describes the inteiitlons of Mor row County's elected and apKiinted officials with resect to future development. According to Oregon Revised Statutes, each county must have such plans Implemented by Jan. 1, J 172. Judge Jones taid he felt that Morrow County's progress to dale would be satisfactory to the state and that Intentions indicate the fulfillment of the law within a reasonable time. Abstract: The plan Is organized In seven sections: introductions, planning background, land use, tran-srwrtntion, public facili ties, housing and community plans. The population, economic trends and opportunities an ilescrilied. Land categories ore described in the land use sec tion along with policies to guide their development. The transportation section describes standards for roads and services provided by nir, rail and water. Plans for parks and recreation, water ami sewerage, solid waste disposal and schools are described In the public facil ities section. The housing section describes local housing needs ai.d objectives for fulfilling those needs. The last section describes the comprehensive plans for the five Incorporated communities in the county as a basis for coordinating planning efforts. Following the presentation of the Comprehensive plan, Mr. Kerr will review the zoning ordinance. Both were prepar ed by Cornell, Howland, Hayes and Merryfield Planning con sultants. Towns without zoning may adopt sections out of the county plan to draft their own ordinances. County zoning doesn't apply to Federal Land. The formal hearing on the zoning ordinance is expected to be held in February. fell and hu.i ..boulder und H'l the film. "The Story- of , n, .i ilw.lr tt'Wi.r liim-hfwin an arm.

TO THE EDITOR. . . Apes and Men BJorn Kurten, a professor at the University of Helsinki, has written a book questioning the assumption that man de M'cndcd from the apes who have been thought of, in a sense, as distant cousins. Although he admits a case can still he made for this assumption, he put forth another that man evolved separately. In fact, he even says there is a chance apes evolved from man's early ancestors, not the reverse! This will prove Interesting to some who have a pessimis tic view of the world trend in general. It certainly raises the question as to the direction In which the human race is head ing. (NEWBERG GRAPHIC). Pioneer Ponderings By W. S. CAVEBHILL A Surprising Discovery Our amateur anthropologist claims to have made an amaz ing discovery. After listening to the chatter of some or our lead ers in the upper echelons of government and a study of their physiognomies, he has come to the conclusion that some of them aro several gen erations behind In the evolu tion of man from the lesser pri mates. In fact, he opines that some of them are barely out of the tree climbing stage. I pass the idea on for what it isj worth, if any.

Annual Congregational Meeting Hope Lutheran Church will hold Its Annual Congregational Meeting on Dec. 19. at 1:00 p.m. Heppner, Oregon net-ember 8, 1971 To the Editors Heppner Gazette-Times Dear Dorothy and Charlie: I was surprised to read re cently in the G-T that I had said it would probably be 1m possible to make a livirg op crating a motion picture theater in Heppner because of TV. This is not my opinion. There are too many other di versions and circumstances which make the motion picture theater business more difficult than it was In its heyday, so you cannot take one reason out of context. To point the finger of blame at TV alone is most unfair. None of the competitions for the theater dollar are in surmountable. It is my opinion that a small theater, properly operated in conjunction with other related sources of income, by owners with lots of enthusiasm and en ergy could produce a satisfac tory living wage. Among vital requirements would be the in itial investment and continuing loyal patronage by the citizens. A theater would be such an asset to Heppner that I do not want to be in any way connect ed with discourajging such a venture. Very truly yours (Mrs.) Elaine S. George Mr. Don Col phoned to xry that they have found a nice home for the cute, cuddly pup py they advertised to give away in last week's classified ads. 126 Albertson Rd, High Point, N. C 27260 Dear Mr. & Mrs. Heard: We have enjoyed your news paper so very much since the death or my Bro. Jeff Walker. We have read about so many people ' and friends of Jeffs since we were there we want "my husband and I" want to renew our subscription to the Gazette-Times. I think the town of Heppner and all around, the people were most wonderful people I ever met. Wish my husband Dewey could have been with me to meet the peo ple. There has been floods and fires since I was there and every one has my sympathy. I enclose another year's subscrip tion for the paper. Please have Merry Xmas and Happy New Yr.

That spring 75 to 80 pound calf has grown to a 400 lb. weaner and may now be sold to a feeder. In the feed lot he may grow to a 650-700 pound yearling and later to a 1000 lb fat steer ready for the packing house. CowBelles say the best buy Is beef which has gone up ovily 19 In the last five years. The film was enjoyed In that the members related with the pictures of their neighbors to the south. It shows a true pic ture of the rancher's sweat, worry and tears to make a liv ing raising cattle and some of his marketing problems. Style Show ' The film" was followed by a style show of the winter's fash Ions available from MiLadies, Elma's and Gardner's. Models were Judy Healy, John Healy, Bill Jepsen-, Benham Malcom and Jim Van Winkle for Card- ners: The swinging teens mod eling for MiLadies were Kay Munkers, Diane Cox, Marie Van Marter, andTrisha Prock.

Membership is the only chairman yet to be named. Mrs. Hughes stressed the need for more members and a money making project the two big things for the immediate fu ture. She also said the group would have a booth on Main St. for the merchants' promo tions such as Crazy Days. Side- wam Bazaar and others. Mrs. Clark reported on the state CowBelles meeting. The chairman In charge of consu mer complaints said besides the amount of fat in wieners an other complaint has been excess moisture in meat packages to day. She said this is because beef isn't hung for 10 or 12 davs like it used to be. Now it "is only 4S hours from hoof to the meat case. Other committee chairmen urged the CowBelles: make the community aware who the Cow Belles are and begin the edu cation for consumption of beef in the Junior High and grade school as well as high school.
