Boardman Asks
By Mary Lee Marlow
Jim Thompson of the Pendle
ton office of the East Central
Oregon Association of Counties
met with the Boardman city
council Tuesday night of last
week to ask its approval of the
boundaries for the two areas
that would be studied on future
economic growth under an
Economic Development Ad
ministration grant.
The council did not approve of
the boundary which had been
approved at Umatilla by its city
council on Monday night which
would include Boardman and
east on the north side of
Interstate 80 North to east of
Hermiston. The Boardman
group wants the Boeing 100.000
acre industrial and agricultural
park and the 50,000 acre Navy
Bombing Range included in its
study area. Both are south of
Interstate 80 North. All the
councilmen went along with the
statement of one that said "this
is where the action will be."
In the area of government
councilmen registered protests
over the Joint Ways and Means
Committee making inroads to
take revenues from municipal
ities such as Boardman.
The council is protesting via
letter to its representatives and
Tuesday night endorsed a letter
declaring the state legislators
are violating the spirit and
intent of the Federal Revenue
Sharing Act in taking revenues
from municipalities.
Boardman's City Hall has
become such a busy place with
the influx of new residents and
an expanded economy in the
area calling on the city for more
services that it may become
necessary to hold two meetings
a month instead of one. It was
agreed by the council that due
to the stepped-up tempo the city
administration will be request
ing the Port of Morrow to move
its office out of the city office
building. No deadline was set

The removal of the port office

of Hermiston will be ratified.

This premier season has been
a total success. According to
Mariha Doherty, coach for one
of the teams, "We'll do totter
next year", liecause "there will
he al least one more team than
(here is Ihis year. A lot of girls
turned out after we'd organized
when they saw how much fun it
was going to be, but had to be
turned away. Next year that
shouldn't hiipM'n."
Coach Doherty, who hcads-up
the Wildcats, added "The game
should lie fun. We work hard
and we play hard Sure we try to
win, but I don't think that's the
only thing The girls get to play
different positions and I let
them all have a chance to pitch
if they want to -and they all
want to. I think they all should
get a turn. It's good experi
ence." Top hitters for the Wildcats,
the youngest team, are Lu Ann
Wav, Bonnie Arrington and
Kelly Hammond. "My older
girls do a real good job." Jan
Noble, Lynn Goclmauer and
Laurie Turner are the oldest
Wildcats.
