Mrs. Weatherford brought the possibility to the court's attention.- HEWS CHIEFS Highway funds distributed The State Highway Division has distributed $15,868,205.82 in highway user funds to the 36 counties of the state during the period July 1 to Dec. 31, 1976, H. Scott Coulter, state highway engineer, reports. The allocation is based on the statutory 20 per cent. Appropriation is made to counties on a monthly basis. The funds come from: motor vehicle registration and operator's license fees, gasoline tax, use fuel tax, motor carrier fees, and fines and penalties collected for violations of the size and weight statutes from citations issued by Highway Division weighmasters. The allocation to each county is based on the number of vehicles registered in it during 1975. In Morrow County, there were 2,551 registered vehicles in 1975 for an apportionment of $70,891.57. Wheat market builds All Northwest grain markets closed the week ending Jan. 20 within a few cents of the previous week's close, according to the USDA's AMS Grain Division, Portland. Wheat markets had a stronger undertone as adverse weather conditions, causing an increased demand at the Gulf for available supplies, were the influencing factors. Cooler weather in the Midwest has also increased feed consumption. White wheat markets are 4 cents per bushel over last week at $2.92 per bushel to arrive coast. Anticipation of additional export business and reduced farmer selling are influencing the markets. Fresh export business continued on the light side. The Japanese Food Agency purchased 2 cargoes of wheat for April and Taiwan, 2 cargoes for March lifting. Traders have reported that overseas buyers are taking an interest in barley. Actual figures are not available at this time. si Wheat and feed grain markets moved in a mixed crice trend across the nation during the week in the Pacific Northwest. No. 1 soft white and white club wheat closed the week at $2.92 per bushel to arrive coast. This compares to $2.88 per bushel last wt ek and $3.88 per bushel a year ago. The cold, dry weather H :.t s"t in nearly two weeks ago moderated toward the wet:' s end. Most wheat fields have snow cover, offering good protection from the zero degree temperature. Stands show no stress to date. This week's export was less than hoped for. Korea purchased 3,000 metric tons of spring to fill out their February requirements. Taiwan bought 30,000 metric tons for March lifting, and Japan 2 cargoes for April. BMCC tuition raised In a step designed to permit students to bear part of the increasing costs of education, the Blue Mountain Community College Board of Education has raised tuition fees $5 per term. Starting with Fall term, the new tuition and fees for full-time students will be $125 per term, up from the current $120. The Board also increased the travel equalization grant to students from Umatilla and Morrow counties who live more than 10 miles from Pendleton. The grant was increased from 2lA cents to three cents per mile per school day to help equalize the additional costs incurred by students who live more than 10 miles from the college. In other action, the board: Approved economy steps taken by President Ron Daniels to meet a loss of revenue resulting from a drop in enrollment. Approved expansion of the college's present Practical Nursin" propram to include an Associate Degree Nursing program. The new plan, if approved by state agencies, would train both one-year Practical Nurses and two-year Associate Degree Nurses. If state approval is received in time, the program will be instituted next Fall. Jones named VP Delpha Jones of Lexington has been named vice president of the Eastern Region Council of the Oregon Lung Association. Her term of office starts Apr. 1 and runs through Mar. 31 of 1978, the Association reports. She will serve with other new officers, Jim Shaw of Ontario, president, and Lorna Rees, Helix, secretary. Everett Abbott of La Grande and Delpha will serve as representative directors from the Eastern Region Council to the Oregon Lung Association State Board of Directors. Delpha is serving her second year in this capacity. Auction cancelled An auction sale for two 40 acre parcels of National Resource Lands in Eastern Oregon's Gilliam County has . been cancelled because the Federal Land Policy and v ' Management Act of 1976 abolished the legal authority under which the land was being offered for sale. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) had scheduled a public sale for Feb. 1, 1977, at its Oregon State Office, 729 NE Oregon St., Portland, Ore. The land is in two isolated tracts. One is in the community of Olex and the other five miles southeast of Olex. The parcels will be reoffered for sale after new regulations are published under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act, BLM officials said. S Commissioner Hughes said he had heard that there was a complaint about the library's services being limited to the southern section of the county. Judge Jones stated that if the residents of the area wanted library service, they needed to petition the court. That the need and request must originate with the resi dents of that area. Commissioner McCoy said that he would inquire further about interest in library ser vice. Shop the Gazettte-Times Classifieds Billing for classified ads is expensive.
