Irrigon
man saves
daughter
Dick Anderson is glad he
knows a little first aid.
The Irrigon man was filling
his swimming pool last week
when he saw his little daugh
ter, floating face down in the
pool. He scooped her from the
water and began mouth-to-mouth
rescusitation. It didn't
work.
He gave her a sharp blow to
the chest and the little girl
began to breath again. She is
home from the hospital and
except for a little bruise on her
chest, is feeling fine.
blades ranging in diameter from 125 to 200 feet and a power
rating between 125 kilowatts and 1.5 megawatts. A 125
kilowatt generator can meet the electrical demand of about a
dozen average households.
Site selection for two of the 125 kilowatt generators will be
made by the end of 1976 with construction to begin in early
1977. The locations for two of the 1.5 megawatt generators
will be determined next year.
During the two years experimental operations are planned,
ERDA expects the utility hosting the wind equipment to
utilize the power from the generator to the maximum
possible extent and provide agreed upon data to the
government. At the end of two years, the government has the
option to extend operations for another two-year period
based upon mutual agreement.
Primary objectives of the project are to determine how
reliable wind power is. how well it can be connected into
existing electrical systems and how the windmills affect the
environment.
Pendleton man
buys feed store
Leland Ansotegui, a horse
shoer for 14 years, has put
away his shodding tools and
has started to sell them.
Ansotegui has purchased
the Green Feed Store from
Larry Prock, Heppner. Anso
tegui has lived in Pendleton
for the last 14 years but says
he knows many Morrow
County residents through his
former occupation.
Ansotegui says the feed
store business will be hard
work but not as tough as all
the bending over to shod eight
or nine horses a day.
He will be joined in the store
by his wife Barbara. The
couple also has three cniiaren.
