Sawmill underway
Harry Kennison and Sandy Stuchell watch iron
workers put together the first spans of what will be
the new Kinzua sawmill in Heppner. Speaking to the
Lions Club Tuesday, Kennison said the $4.5-million
facility will be one of the most modern in the world and
in some respects, the only one of its kind in the world.
The new mill will be able to process logs ranging in
size from 4-5 inches to 5 feet in diameter. High
automated with computerization the sawmill will

HOW DO YOU FEEL
ABOUT RCA RODEO?
The Wranglers Riding Club urges your
consideration of a petition to reinstate RCA
RODEO in Morrow County.
The Petitions are available at your local
business houses and will be presented to the Fair
Board next Monday evening, a meeting you are
encouraged to attend, at the West of Willow
Restaurant, 7:30 p.m.
enable Kinzua to obtain virtually full utilization of all
logs, including the vast amount of timber suffering
from recent bug kill. Kennison, who designed the mill
and many of the new features himself, said an ad
ditional 16 employees will be needed for two shifts
when the facility goes on the line in June of next year.
He said persons interested in taking a tour of Kinzua's
operations here only need call the office for an appoin
tment and someone will take them around, either in
dividually or in groups.
CBEC
notes
useage
jump
Despite the conservation
and cut back efforts of
Columbia Basin Electric Co
op residential members, in
creased large commercial and
irrigation useage coupled with
new homes and remodeled
businesses have pushed the
useage level in the five-county
co-op area to a record high.
For the first ten months of
1977, energy use by CBEC
members totaled 106,470,261
kilowatt hours. This compared
to 93,362,855 kwhs for the first
ten months of 1976 an in
crease of 14 per cent.
As compared to the 1974
level, the local utility usage
has increased 48.2 per cent in
the past three-year period.
Fortunately for the CBEC
membership, the line facilities
are not designed for a very
minimum annual growth. New
equipment has been added
without brown outs and with
out damage due to low voltage
conditions or poor capacity
conditions.
Also, the CBEC manage
ment and Board has secured
long term contracts with the
WPPSS nuclear projects to
meet some of the future
needed use of the membership.

being too conservative in the
past. We don't want to get in
another position where we've
outgrown new facilities before
they're even built."
Building cost estimates
were $1,689,850 for an elemen
tary school in Boardman with
20 classrooms and a 500
student capacity; $1,714,100 in
Irrigon with 15 classrooms
and a 350 student capacity;
$441,000 for a Riverside shop;
and $320,000 for a multipur
pose room at A.C. Houghton.
Before making a decision on
the construction issue, the
problem of equalizing facility
use between lone and Heppner
elementary and grade schools
was discussed.
Don Cole, principal of Hepp
ner Grade School presented
information on alternative
ways to decide what students
in the Lexington area in
grades K-7 attending school in
Heppner could be channeled to
uncrowded facilities in lone
with out splitting families with
students at Heppner High.
Jim Bier, principal of Hepp
ner High School reported on
the feasibility of moving
grades 7 and 8 to the high
school to relieve crowding in
the elementary and junior
high levels. Junior high and
high school students share
facilities at Riverside, and the
committee informally deci
ded, partly based on the
Riverside situation, that the
move would create more
problems than it would solve.

In football, it often means time out to plan a last minute strategy. But in your life, it shouldn't.
That's why we hope you take two minutes to think about our Keogh and IRA ideas.
If your company doesn't have a retirement plan, or you are self-employed, First Federal
Savings & Loan and the U.S. Government have arranged a program to provide security for
retirement. Keogh (for the self-employed) or IRA (for individuals without a company program) are
savings plans with huge benefits. Like tax advantages and peace of mind for your family.
We've pulled out all the stops to offer you the best plans. 7A interest is an example. This
highest possible rate produces 8.06 annual yield. IVTany Savings & Loan's don't offer this
interest rate. Without it, you could lose a substantial amount ot
interest income.
Call us today and set up an appointment with our Keogh and IRA
consultant, Mike KilKenny. Or write for a free brochure with
more details.
If you use our plans, this may be the best
two minutes you've ever spent for your life.
