Newspaper Page TextI Page 10. THE GAZETTE-TIMES, Heppwr. OR. Thursday. June M. 1974 World traveler visits hometown By Justine W eatherford About 40 years ago Ellis Thomson moved from Heppner to New York City. Last week he visited here for the first time since 1954. He is now retired from the New York Central Railroad System. He calls himself "an old bachelor." Ellis has many friends and relatives in Heppner and other parts of this state. His father Charles was one of the three original Thomson brothers who founded Heppner's oldest always-in-one family business. His mother the former Belle . . ) . . Mda , t m ... i- ' t ' Ellis Thompson Colliver died when he was eight years old, and when he was 10, he gained a wonderful stepmother, the former Mary Farns worth. He had his public schooling here and was very active in Heppner High School dramatics. He also performed in the Amateur Nights at the old Star Theater. His romantic clowning there is preserved on film that Bert Sigsbee shot and that Bert's daughter Elaine George has now permitted to be remade so that it can be shown on modern projectors. After high school, Ellis attended the University of Oregon and worked here in the Thomson Brother's store. He was known as an amateur artist then and is still working at this hobby. He has studied art and especially enjoys painting in oil mostly portraits. His home for many years in New York City is on East 88th Street "right across from Mayor Beam's residence and just four blocks from Central Park." He enjoys many concerts and much theater and says he "haunts museums and art galleries there and in Europe." Ellis Thomson is really a world traveler. This coming fall he plans to make his 12th trip to Europe and will spend most i of this trip in the Greek Islands which he especially enjoys. He has visited Mexico three times, Bermuda twice and Puerto Rico twice as well as making many, many trips across and around the United States. He has had some unusual adventures on his travels. He said that some of the more difficult traveling has been in the communist countries. " Crossing Hungary we were locked into a windowless car for over 24 hours without any food most unpleasant." Ellis wants people to not worry too much about crime and about being mugged in New York City. He regrets the recent bad publicity. He feels that that city is much safer than many other cities. Before his younger brother Earl Thomson, Portland (now also retired) brought him here last Wednesday, Ellis visited many friends and family members in Roseburg, Corvallis and Waldport. Other members of his family visiting here last week were his Aunt Louise Thomson Becket and her husband. Merle who camped at Cutsforth Park. Ellis has been a house guest of his cousin Jim and wife Madge Thomson. He has also enjoyed visiting with cousin Winifred Thomson Cox and family and cousin Rod Thomson and family. He happily visited old friends at the Pioneer Memorial Hospital and at the county Museum and Heppner Library. He enjoyed visiting and lunching with Zeta Brosnan and three more generations of Brosnans on Butter Creek and visiting and dining with Happy and Claude Graham. He is pleased with the way his hometown looks. "The homes .nd yards and trees and the Masonic Cemetery look very good," he remarked. This spring and summer Ellis is traveling on a MHlay Gr- hound Bus. Co. pass which he recommends highly. After leaving Heppner last Saturday he expected to go almost non-stop to Chicago. He left his apartment in New York City on April 26 and expects to be back there on June 24.
