Most of the !M0 troops on board were asleep in their hunks. Suddenly a torpedo smashed into the Dorches ter's flank. Frantically pounding up the ladders the troops milled in confusion on the decks.

Many thanks for your weekly contribution to our enjoyment. From your "Reminisce" col umn of January 8, 1935, I note mention that, "two sleeping ns from Boise and Portland bring and house delegates to the Oregon Wool Growers As sociation, convention meeting Heppner. I remember well convention. It was the larg convention ever held In Heppner. Some 500 delegates were in attendance. It was a large task for the housing com mittee, as they had to solicit rooms in private homes in the area. I believe there were foun Pullman cars brought in by the J Union Pacific to help out. The banquet was outstanding. It was chairnianed by Harold Colin and his specially picked committee Considering the e normous challenge of sponsor ing such a large gathering ev erything was processed with dis patch and satisfaction. We re ceived much praise from the- ide delegates for the untir- I Putin nnfrin i ing efforts of the townspeople of Heppner and their outstand ing hospitality. For three days and two nights the old town was "splitting at the seams." The sheep industry was in the depth of depression at that time, but sheep operators had to have a little respite from their many problems and this con vention provided it. The Heppner Gazette-Times, edited at that time by Spencer Crawford and family, gave great coverage to this convention. I believe they put out a special edition in observance of the occasion. They proved that nothing of any importance can be a success in a small com munity without the cooperation local newspaper. Nuff of the said.
