Airstrip gets
PC approval
The Morrow County Plan
ning Commission approved
an application for a condition
al use permit by Tagarres &
Simplot to build a runway for
Willow Creek Farms, but
conflict over Navy air space
for the Boardman Bombing
Range will force the issue to
the Federal Aviation Agency.
Steve Sackmann, repre
senting Willow Creek Farms,
a 16,000-acre farming opera
tion planted in potatoes and
wheat, need the airstrip for
crop spraying and flying in
potato crews. The proposed
runway is 5,000 feet long and
80 feet wide and would be in
use for 50 days out of the year
for crop spraying.
Conflict with the Navy
stems from the fact that
Willow Creek Farms is two
miles from the Navy air
corridor for the Boardman
Bombing Range. Navy re-
presentative Commander
Cobb said at the Monday night
meeting that "the Navy is
willing to accommodate the
crop planes, but the FAA must
first agree to allow the planes
in the restricted area."
In a letter to the FAA, the
Navy requested that an FAA
safety specialist be sent out to
study the problem, and al
though the Navy will argue to
maintain priority use of the
air corridor, a scheduling of
spraying operations could be
worked out that would not
interfere with Navy flights. .
In other action by the
planning commission, ap
plications for conditional use
permits were approved for a
13-space addition to an ex
isting trailer court in Irrigon
owned by Harold S. Hadley
and a retail nursery to be
located out of Boardman
owned by Arthur Doubledee.

58,700 apply for deer permits
It's been quiet at Willow
Creek fair week is a busy
time for everyone. As our
members prepare to get back
into the swing of school and
civic activities, we hope they
keep in mind that we still have
some good events scheduled
through September.
A "golf and grill" is slated
for Sept. 1. This should be a
safe way to spend your Labor
Day weekend although your
reporters have witnessed a
few wild shots on the course!
But, bring your family and
take your chances with us.
Tee-off time will be 4 p.m.;
bring a salad if you're A to I, a
desert if you're J to Z.
Our club has been invited to
McNary on Sept. 15. The men
will start play at 8:30; the
girls will begin around noon.
There will be a sign-up sheet
at the clubhouse for this
visitation; this is the last
planned invitational of the
year, so do attend if you-can.
Approximately a dozen men
played at Willow Run Sunday.
Unfortunately, we were un
able to obtain the results of
their day in time for this
week's column. We'll try to
have that information for you
next week.
Pat and Vicki Edmundson
and Dorothy Glenn were the
winners last ladies' day. In
anticipation of cooler weather
and busier mornings, we'll
begin play at 9:30 for the rest
of the season. Sept. 3 is our
regular first-of-the-month
sack lunch morning: bring a
sandwich and celebrate the
opening of school.

The drawing to select suc
cessful applicants for slightly
more than 39,000 antlerless
and other deer permits for the
1974 seasons was held at the
Portland office of the Wildlife
Commission on Aug. 16.
Some 58,700 applicants were
received prior to the Aug. 6
deadline. Members of the
public established the se
quence of numbers to be used
Especially hot and dry
weather is predicted for the
next several days. Forest
visitors are requested to be
extremely careful with fire.
State law requires that camp
ers have a shovel, axe, and
bucket. If you have a campfire
please be sure it is dead out
before you leave, says R.B.
Cogburn, Fire Management
Specialist, Forestry Service.
by randomly selecting num
bers from a shaker. The cards
were drawn by using the last
digit of the serial number on
the application card. Follow
ing is the sequence of numbers
used: 5, 0,1,6, 2, 8, 9, 4, 3 and
7.
In all but seven of the areas
in which permits were avail
able there were more appli
cants than permits, making a
drawing necessary. Nearly all
the remaining permits were
filled in a second drawing of
hunters who were unsuccess
ful in the first go-around but
who listed an area of second
choice on their applications.
The only areas in which there
remain permits to be filled on
a first ome, first -served
basis are the High Cascades
area with about 3,500 permits
remaining and the Jackson
Agricultural areff and the
Calapooya Creek No. 2, both of
which have about 100 permits
remaining at the time of
writing.
AH applicants who were
unsuccessful in the drawing
should receive notification by
Sept. 1.
