A letter w as presented to the lrrif!on City Council April 10 by cWl 0sUTk'nI a,nd, R " $g?gtZl. to operate as a business. Action on th request was tabled until cm be made con- conditions that might result from the lease. Recorder Mary Wilson was named as budget officer and a Total meeting to present the budget message was set for April 26. Those named to the budget committee were: Hubert Senn. Joe Irish. Bill Griffin. Warren McCoy, Don Adams, Viestie Elgin." $ Ruth Bentley and Billie Grif fin were appointed to the Planning Commission. A resolution was adopted to be included in a study area on 22368 solid waste disposal being conducted by Umatilla County. A similar study is underway for the area by Morrow County, but since the Irrigon area is presently served by garbage disposal service operating from Hermiston, it must be consider ed under the Umatilla study. 436.06 The City Council agrees with a letter from the State Highway Dept. suggesting removal of Highway 32 designation, since it is called highway 730 over the same route, from the Stanfield Junction to McNary. Chamber Hears of Outdoor School A week -long outdoor program will be launched for the first time in Morrow County this year from May 7 to 11. The sixth grade of Heppner Elementary School will be at Tupper Work Center for an extension of class room instruction. Don Cole who developed the program ex plained it at the Heppner Morrow County Chamber of Commerce meeting Monday of last week. Areas of study will include weather with common sense predictions; soil chemical make up and use; geology, formation of the soil in the area ; water, purity, stream flow, temperature control and pres ervation, plants, timber and recognition of common plants; wild life, various species found, habitat and their relation to other animals. On Thursday the 6th graders will be at Bull Prairie for a survival cook-out. They'll start (try) fir without the use of matches. They'll eat the foods they can find. Each student will have with them a survival kit they assembled at borne before they left. Mr. Cole made the point the items are common ones around the home and will fit into a large size bandaid can. He said they wanted them small enough so the students could slip them into their camp duffle, tackle box or jockey box. There will be five resource people, authorities in their fields to conduct the classes as well as the two classroom teachers, Clint Agee and Inez Erwin. In addition there will be 12 high school students to act as counsellors. Mr. Cole said he had a hand book to give the counsellors and would expect to spend about 5 hours with them outlining their duties and re sponsibilities. Mrs. Bill Van Winkle will act as bead cook with volunteer assistants. Cost for the 50 students is estimated at about $16.00 per student. It has been suggested that each student earn $6.00 of the tuition. Each student wanting to earn his share of the tuition may have free want ads in the Gazette-Times. Each student may list the jobs he will do to earn the money. The balance will be earned from the sale of tickets for the portable TV to be given as door prize at the Band Carnival. They earned about $600. "last year and this is just what they'll need for this project. What Mother should save fr a raiay day is patience.

Mike Benge on TV Dela ed by JUSTINE W E.ATIIFRFORD On the first hour of the TODAY show last Friday six x-pnsoners were interviewed five were military men and Heppner's Mike Benge, a civil ian AID area development adviser. The military men agreed that 19 was a sort of turn for the better for prisoners generally and that their tort ures were eased somewhat. They agreed that the anti-war demonstrations in the US made trouble for them-some of them resisted meeting the unofficial anti-war groups that came to Vietnam. Some were almost forced to wTite letters to American anti-war groups. They said treatment in different prison camps varied, but that neither in the north or the south were their captors humane. One Thought that maybe he was fed a little better when he was moved to the north. Mike Treated Worse Mike, the last man interview ed, said that probably civilians were treated even worse than the military. He spoke of 35 days of suffering with malaria and being denied medication. He w as close to two missionary' friends who died and saw the massacre of 7 unarmed civilian missionaries. He w as a prisoner in Cambodia for over a year, and as he was moved north saw many North Vietnam soldiers in Cambodia. My Memory' Of Mike In 1967 when I w as teaching at Heppner Elementary-, Mik spoke to an assembly there. He showed slides of his work and the area he came to know so well in South Vietnamese Highlands. I was so pleased to meet him, to see what a fine young man he w as; how sincere he w as about his opportunity to help the Montagnards with whom he lived and worked. He explained that this special cultural group were mountain people who lived by hunting, fishing, and farming and were not "-citified". He compared them in ways to our American Indians. He was eager to make their lives better and had mastered their language. The students who attended this assembly were, like me, very impressed with Mike. He seem ed, boyish, a bit ruddy or sun-tanned, and apparently in excellent health. He returned to his work abroad soon after that appearance. The Change Over a week ago, I watched a TV exposure of Mike coming off the plane at Clark AFB in the Philippines-and then along with millions of other Ameri cans observed him closely on the TV rather early last Friday morning. My personal opinion is that he has aged faster than would be expected, in the six years since I saw him in person. His face looked lined and his speech was more hesitant (but who wouldn't speak hesitatingly under the circumstances?) Not For Amnesty When the group was asked how they felt about the U.S. granting amnesty to "draft dodgers "-Col. Risner said that he could speak for the six of them as they all felt alike. He said although they are Chris tians and do not want to be unreasonable-they agree that every citizen should obey his country's laws. They do not favor amnesty, but think that maybe the dodgers might be allowed to come back and do some special service to pay for their resistance of the draft law. The MC asked if any of the six knew of any American MI As (Missing in Action), and each indicated they did not. A military officer said that teams were going to make thorough searches for men and the facts about men from which nothing has been heard. Don't smoke, don't drink, go to bed early, eat simple foods -even if don't live a long life, it will SEEM LIKE ONE. THE BIG TROUBLE WITH BEING A LEADER IS. YOU DON'T KNOW IF PEOPLE ARE FOLLOWING YOU OR CHASING YOU. In Hcppner Every Thursday I lAtrs biecinc T.V. SERVICE By Qualified RCA VIDEO-TECH, INC. 41 A K. MoU $U' Harmlston By MARIE McQoarrl Big doings coming up for members of Willow Creek Country Club and for their golfing-minded friends. A Family Kick-off Breakfast will be held Sunday April 29th. This Start of Golf for 1973" is being lield for both men and women, and also, please bring any of your golfing friends that might be interested in joining our group. You might know of couples or singles who are wanting to play the game of golf, but never have. Kick off Breakfast Breakfast will be served from 7:30 to 9:00, consisting of ham. eggs, hotcakes and coffee. BIG SURPRISE - all this is to be served by the men, which should be an extra treat for the gals. What a whale of a breakfast for $1.50. Men's organized play will start at 9:00. At this time the women will have an organiza tional meeting, while the men are teeing off. The ladies will then get a chance to play their 9. The committee for this Fam ily Kick-off Breakfast is Ed Hiemstra, Ray Massey, Vel Robinson. Dennis Martin and Norm Rickert. High School Golf Congratulations are in order for our Heppner High School Golf team. They are doing themselves proud by the way they are performing here and on the other golf courses. To make it a little clearer to you, the boys that play on the team are chosen in the same way the pros are eligible to participate in the large golf tournaments. Each week, on a certain day. the boys play on the course here to "make the cut". This definitely keeps the boys prac ticing, improving their game and on their mettle ia order to be on the travelling team. Today, Umatilla High School team will be here to compete with our boys. They are 1 to 1 on games, so this particular day should prove interesting. Our boys go to Kinzua to play on Saturday. In this paper, elsewhere, Tom Shear, coach of the golf team, has the scores the boys have made and how they have stacked up against the teams they have played. Tom is mighty proud of his boys, and so are we. Tell them so. Recruiters Here Jerry Schmatika, army re cruiter and Vera Olson navy recruiter were in Heppner, lone and Riverside High Schools last week. They presented the programs that the Armed Services have to offer. They are strictly on an all-volunteer basis. The recruiters were pleased with their acceptance at all three schools. The Navy has a nuclear power program. In as much as Morrow County may be the site of the next nuclear power plant, the Navy feels this would be an excellent program to prepare the enlistee for work-after enlistment here. Board of Equalization MAY 14 Joyce Bergstrom, Morrow County Assessor, has annouced that the Board of Equalization will meet on Monday, May 14 at 9:30 a.m. at the Courthouse in Heppner. At that time there will be a public examination of assessment rolls for 1973 and correction of all errors in valuation, descriptions, or qualities of land, lots or other property assessed by the as sessor. Any interested persons should plan to attend the meeting. Petitions for adjustment of assessments must be filed with the Board of Equalization not later than Monday of the week following th first week that the Board is in session. S tarts J strata verTEts Tee Cup Shaping Up The course is finally getting in playable shape. As everyone knows, this has been a bad spring to get the grass to growing and up and green, but time will help that matter and also a little sunshine. Would like to give a belated "thank you" to Dee Cribble and Beverly Gunderson for cleaning the clubhouse, prior to having the 5 highschool teams here a couple of weeks ago. They also went down, when the boys were there, and served them sand wiches and had candy bars for them to build up their energy. Thanks girls. Volunteering: Fun & Satisfaction By David E. Mitchum. Mental Health Director When I first moved to Heppner I used to think that every body went home at night and watched television or did something at home. Since that time I have learned that there are many clubs and social activities which are constantly going on night after night. However, some people have said there is little of any meaning to do in Morrow County. For those who really think that way. it can be suggested that volunteers are needed in many places. If one feels that his or her life is full but without any feeling of satisfaction or feeling of mak ing a contribution, volunteering might be an outlet for such feelings. President Nixon, in his inaug ural address four years ago, emphasized the need for public involvement through volunteer services. Among other things, he saw a chance for young people and senior citizens to be a part of the mainstream of American life. On weekends, many television commercials have shown well known sports heroes urging people to volun teer. From industry and busin nesses to programs like ACTION, volunteering is begin ning to be a very American thing to do. Citizen participation in a mental health setting can be fun and can also be very challeng ing and satisfying, as some of our current volunteers will testify. Some ideas of how citizens can participate are: tutoring, crafts classes, baby sitting for children of clients, providing clients with transpor tation, assisting with therapy occasionally, and assisting with clerical work. Sometimes assistance with personal ser vices for some handicapped people, such as letter writing, shopping and reading etc., can be done by volunteers. Back in November of 1972, well before the clinic opened, two people, unsolicited, made their interest known. Since that time, the number of people who have volunteered has increased to seven. During the month of March volunteers provided a total of ninety-five hours. Some of the local people who have volunteered include Jus tine Weatherford, Liz Curtis, Leese Martin, Aloha DeSpain, Mary Blackaller .Helen Nel son and Juanita Cogburn. All of these people are to be especially commended, not only for their help during my illness, but for their continued interest and participation as time goes on. We hope to have a continuing corp of volunteers because in the next few months our" program may be expanding to", include some day treatment! services for both Umatilla and . Morrow Counties. I will have', more to say about that in the future. However, for those of you who want to do something of meaning and make a contribu tion in the way of your time and talents, this is something you may want to consider. G-T WANT ADS PAY
