My A XX TON' FY
Equipped with back packs
and armed with a can of beans,
a half a jar of pickles, a bottle of
Dristan ("in case we got a
headache") and a change of
clothes, three modern-da'y
Daniel Boones set out in quest
of travel and adventure. -What
started out with an
innocent statement of "we're
going to play soldier, Mom"
ended in a few anxious hours for
the parents of our trekking trio.
Donnie Lott 9, Harry Gro
shens 9, and Greg Groshens 10
started out on their hike about
4:00 p.m. last Tuesday night
declaring their intentions to
Bernice Lott.
About 5:00, brother Mike Lott
began to look for the trio and
was unable to locate them in the
immediate hills behind the Lott
house where the boys usually
play. After about a half an hour
when it began to get dark, Mike
still had not located them.
It was then that Bernice
discovered that perhaps the
hike was to encompass a little
more ground than supposed as
Donnie's back pack was gone.
She called the other boys'
parents, the Vic Groshens and
then alerted the neighbors who
joined in the search.
Still unsuccessful, they enlist
ed the aid of a group of high
school kids as they were leaving
basketball practice at about
6:30 p.m. The area covered was
increased, as the kids used
4-wheel drives and Hondas,
some of which had spot lights.
The Lotts still thought that the
boys would be in the immediate
hills, but that still covers a lot of
ground.
After this failed to turn up any
sign of the boys, the Lotts then
called Forrie Burkenbine. who.
brought the more powerful
search light on the fire truck as
darkness had engulfed the hills.
Still no boys.
Finally, Archie Ball and a
group of Search and Rescuers
joined the worried parents and
the others to intensify the
search with walkie-talkies.
Everyone loves a happy
ending, and fortunately our tale
has one as about 8:00 p.m., the
now weary travelers walked in
on their own. ..very quietly.
It was learned they had
ventured three or four hills
away, cross-country. In spite of
their "well-provisioned" gear,
they had neglected to take a
flashlight and as any latter day
Tom Sawyer can tell you, the
dark and cold becomes mighty
foreboding and home looks
mighty good.
The first meeting for Morrow
County host families in the
Oregon-Japan Youth Exchange
program was held Feb. 26 at the
Lexington School.
The purpose of the meeting
was to inform each family who
their guest for the three-week
program will be. Correspon
dence is to begin immediately
between the students and host
families so that they can
become acquainted before the
guest arrives in Morrow
County.
About 40 attended this first
orientation meeting. Mrs. Rob
ert Davidson co-ordinator for
the county, told about some of
the things she had learned at an
orientation session she attended
in Corvallis recently. She also
distributed books and maga
zines about Japan to each
family. The material had been
donated by the Consulate Gen
eral of Japan.
Host families were told they
will be hosting these students:
C.R.McEUigotts -12 yr. old boy,
Robert Laughlins - 14 year old
girl; Roland Bergstroms - 15
year old girl; Del LaRues - 13
year old boy; Dick Sargents -13
year old boy; Del Pipers - 12
year old girl; Leonard Tolls -13
year old girl; Jerry Myers - 15
year old boy; and the Robert

WOW Day Set
Students in the 9th through
12th grade in Umatilla and
Morrow Counties are invited to
a career day, Saturday, March
3, according to Jerry Brog,
County Extension Agent.
Entitled "World of Work"
(W.O.W.), the one day program
is sponsored by the Extension
study groups in the two county
area in cooperation with Blue
Mountain Community College.
All schools in the two counties
are cooperating with the study
groups.
The objective of the WOW day
is to introduce students to
careers and give them details
on each job. "We hope every
freshman and sophomore in the
area takes advantage of his
opportunity", Brog said. "It
comes at a time when students
at these grade levels can adjust
their study program to better
prepare themselves for job
entry." Juniors and seniors are
also urged to attend so they too
can learn about a variety of
careers.
Over UK) resource people will
spend the day explaining their
job and how to prepare for it.
One highlight of planning this
program has been the terrific
suport from businessmen,
agencies and schools, Brog
explained.
A frequent comment from
students last year, Brog noted,
was that their first choice was
not what they expected. By
registering for four different
career groups, students will be
introduced to a group of
fascinating careers they might
not have known existed.
Careers to be considered
include agricultural production
and business as well as techni
cal professions, veterinarian,
air service from pilots to air
traffic control, radio, news
reporting, advertising, dental
work from lab technicians to
dentists, medical careers,
including nurses and techni
cians and cosmotology which
encompasses barbers, beau
ticians and modeling.
Other fields of interest are all
phases of mechanics, secre
tarial jobs, all types of sales
positions, armed services for
men and women, forestry, fish
and wildlife work, law inforce-
nient, legal professions, en
gineering and engineering
technology.
Students interested in social
services will find about the jobs
of case workers and counselors.
Building trades will feature
carpenters, plumbers and
electricians. Education jobs
will cover primary and secon
dary schools and special educa
tion. New careers this year include
driving occupations, manu
facturing, and service trades.
The program for the day
begins with registration at 9:30
a.m., an orientation at 10 a.m.
followed with four periods
of 50 minutes each to
discuss the careers. There will
be a lunch break at 12:30 p.m.
with students being provided a
lunch which is included in the
$1.00 registration fee.
