here for a
Heppner's first foreign ex
change student, Jan Nissen,
17, from Luebke-Kroog, West
Germany, has become part of
the household of Bob and Sue
Jones and is a student at
Heppner High.
Jan arrived in August via
Copenhagen, Chicago, San
Francisco, Portland and
Pendleton.
"Heppner is warmer and
dryer than my home com
munity, which is built on land
reclaimed from the North Sea.
My father is a farmer; he has
a dairy and raises wheat and
other grains."
Jan's older brother, 20, is an
engineering student and was
also an exchange student in
the U.S. He spent the school
year 1970-71 in Minnesota.
There is also a sister, 14. and a
younger brother, 9, at home.
The school he has attended
was 15 miles from his home
and he commuted by train
each day, a 10-minuie trip
each way. There were 1.000
pupils there and the school
day began at 8 a.m. and ended
at 1 p.m. Sports were not so
big in the school there as they
are here, although there were
school learns that competed,
mainly in soccer. Attendance
at the games was small, he
said.
"To be licensed to drive a
car we have to pay $200 to a
private instructor who then
helps the student prepare to
pass a stiff driving test. No
one can get a driver's license

year
until he or she is 18 years old."
Jan noted thai the number of
large cars here is surprising-he
is accustomed lo
only small cars.
Jan's academic interest is
science biology and chem
istry. He likes the American
system of letting students
choose their classes. At home
the schedule is rigid and the
student has' no choice.
His coming to America was
arranged through the inter
national organization, "Youth
for Understanding," and Mr.
and Mrs. Bob Jones, who
learned about contacting this
private agency through
friends.

HUNT
PLEASE
RESPECT THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS
If camp fires are permitted on lands where you plan to hunt, then
make sure the fire at your hunting camp is built is an open spot
which is free from flammable material such as dry grass or forest
litter. Camp fires are not to be left unattended, and must be
completely extinguished before leaving your camp to hunt.
Fires are not permitted outside your camp area during the closed
fire season. The season will not end until general statewide rains
occur and an official proclamation is issued terminating the fire
season.
If you smoke in the woods do so in a safe place. Do not smoke
while traveling on foot or horseback. Stop, clear a spot, then rest
and enjoy your smoke. Don't flip cigarettes and cigar stubs or pipe
ashes. In the spot you have cleared, grind the ashes or snipe into
the earth with the heel of your shoe.
The weeds, grass, brush and timber may be wet now, but a few
hours of sunshine will quickly dry them out.
District Foresters, Forest Rangers and Range Managers are
asking your cooperation again this year to protect your hunting
areas and to KEEP OREGON GREEN.
Good luck. Hope you get your
