Fillies rack up 2 CMC wins
Heppner's Fillies jumped
into the thick of the Columbia
Basin Conference race with
road victories over Oregon
Trail on Friday and Weston
McEwen on Saturday.
Against the Blazers, Hepp
ner pulled off a rarity by
completely blanking their op
ponents for an entire quarter.
It happened in the third period
when the Fillies put 19
unanswered points on the
board to take a commanding
34-14 lead. The streak broke
the game open after it was tied
at six apiece after one period
and the Fillies held an 18-14
lead at halftime.
Maureen Healy led the way
with 13 points, Diane Holland
had eight, Geri Grieb hit seven
and Wendy Myers added four.
In the rebounding depart
ment, Janice Healy pulled 11,
Maureen Healy collected nine,

streak to 4-1 mark
Taking control of the game
from the start, Heppner's 8th
grade Ponies upped their
season mark to 4-1 with a
convincing 41-16 win over
Umatilla Thursday at Uma
tilla. Umatilla scored the opening
basket of the game but from
there it was all Heppner as the
Ponies came up with what
coach Jim Ackley called the
best defensive effort of the
year. Ackley said the Ponies
also moved the ball well on
offense and cut down on both
their turnovers and fouls.
Dorian Forrar led the Pony
scoring attack, connecting on
lone 7th grade
Cards notch 1st win
lone Junior High's 7th grade
boys team picked up their first
win of the season Thursday
when Roger Morter popped a
17-footer with nine seconds
remaining to give the Jr.
Cards a 26-24 win over
Arlington.
The Cards stayed on top
throughout most of the game,
holding a 17-11 lead at
halftime and a 21-15 margin
after three periods. The mini
Honkers staged a fourth
quarter rally which brought
them to a 24-24 tie before
Morter canned his game
winner. Morter led the lone
scorers with 16 points and
Troy Lindstrom added four.

Leading the Filly scorers
were Jackie Mollahan with 15,

Flood plain areas questioned
at lone Planning meeting
Flood plains, the proposed
urban growth boundaries be
yond the city limits and
sketch map discrepancies
were the " main topics of
discussion at the public hear
ing on the lone Comprehen
sive Draft Plan at lone City
Hall on Monday, Jan. 16.
The hearing was conducted
by the lone Planning Com
mission and Marie Hall, East
Central Oregon Association of
Counties planner for Morrow
County cities. '
The feeling was expressed
by many of those present that
the flood plain area on the
map, drawn from the map
used by insurance companies
and encompassing most of the
area in the lone city limits, is
too extensive. A new flood
hazard study now being con
ducted by the Corp of En
gineers might change flood
plain deliniations when it is
completed in April 1979.
"It seems like putting the
cart before the horse," one
councilman commented, re
ferring to adopting a land use
plan before the Corps study
was completed. Another won
dered why the information on
flooding already compiled by
various agencies couldn't be
put together instead of spend
ing money on a new study.
Hall said the comprehen
sive plan would have to be
updated when the Corp study
is completed, but at present it
had to show the flood plain as
it is now deliniated. She also
suggested that there would
probably be other changes to
make by the time the new
flood information was com
piled. Extending the urban
growth boundary north and
east beyond the city limits to
include buildable land of min
imal agricultural value up out
of the flood plain area was
discussed. Gradual growth is
projected in the lone area and
Oregon's
Oregonians tend to be fiercely proud of those who
explored, settled and carved their particular state out of the
Old West.
Overland via the Oregon Trail and by sea around Cape
Horn the early settlers streamed westward in the 1830s and
'40s to wrest this land from its native inhabitants and repel
Britons with similar notions. The Oregon Territory was
created in 1848 and statehood achieved 11 years later.
Legend and lore literally abound concerning those who
followed Lewis and Clark to the fabled Pacific Northwest.
Consequently, it may come as something of a shock to
discover Oregon's most famious didn't get here until Sept. 14,
1938 and he arrived on a steamship out of Long Island, N.Y.,
via the Panama Canal !
Hardly a pioneer by ordinary standards, he nevertheless
has achieved singular fame for epitomizing the spirit of those
who claimed tha land a century before his arrival.
He is a statue.
And he stands 24 feet tall atop the Capitol Building in
Salem, his 16,700 pound bronze bulk resplendent in gold
leaf gleaming in sunlight by day and floodlight at
night symbolizing those who founded the Land of the
Empire Builders.
Variqusly known as The Pioneer, the Goldern Pioneer
and the Oregon Pioneer, he is without formal name. Actual
conception appears to have been the product of his creator, a
German-born sculptor of national fame, who appears to have
taken the statue's origin to the grave with him in 1957.
Ulric H. Ellerhusen was one of four artists who
collaborated with architect Francis Keally, winner of a
nationwide contest to design the present Capitol Building
after its predecessor was destroyed by fire in 1935.
Nowhere in minutes of 42 meetings conducted by the
official Capitol Reconstruction Commission between Dec. 4,
1935 and March 31, 1939 is there a hint anyone but Ellerhusen
conceived the statue. Nowhere in printed rules for the contest
to design the building is there a word about statuary atop the
dome let alone even mention of the dome.
But when Keally's design was declared winner, the
pioneer began to attract attention. Photographs of the
original 16-inch model drew immediate response from critics
throughout the state. Local sculptors thought they should
have the job. Its proportions seemed somewhat awry. Its
accoutrements lacked this or that. And its most vocal
detractor abhorred what he termed the smooth-shaved figure
carrying a Boy Scout axe and likely wearing rayon
underwear.
He thought the Capitol should be adorned by a statue of
Sacajawea.
In a letter to the Commission, Ellerhusen responded to
his critics, explaining his pioneer figure was meant to
represent "...upstanding youth. ..feet firmly planted on the
Hall commented, "It's the
logical way to go."
A small extension of the
boundary to the west of lone
was included in the plan
because of the possibility of
sewage work being done in
the area and the possibility of
a change in the flood plain
designation in the area.
Several errors were point-
ed out on the map, including
the park being misplaced and
several zoning errors.

He admitted the axe appeared small close up and went on
to explain the technicalities of perspective that must be
. considered when creating a statue to be viewed from 300 feet
away some 160 feet in the air.
"The regular, yard-long axe," he wrote, "is also the
proper symbol for the Oregon Pioneer, as the Long Knife was
the symbol for the Kentuckians. The double-bitted axe is the
symbol of the specialist, who was not necessarily a
homebuilder.
"The pioneer is holding a piece of canvas, it is left for the
imagination of the beholder if this be the cover of the covered
wagon or some other tenting," he continued. "The story to be
read being that his pioneer, having taken possession of his
land,, is about to put up some temporary shelter with
indication that the permanent home is being built, the tree
stump indicating that a tree has been cut of a size practical
for log house building."
The sculptor's explanation quelled complaints and he
was permitted to continue his work without further
harrassment. He actually created many of the Capitol's
adornments, including the great eagle over the ' main '
entrance, beaver and sea otter flanking the eagle and the
wheat and salmon over the east and west entrances,
respectively. In bronze, in addition to the pioneer, he
executed the great seal in the rotunda floor and over the main
entrance on the outside a sailing vessel, the cow, sheep and
on the inside the stage coach, pack animals and early
locomotive. Total cost, $22,431.50, generally conceded quite a
bargain compared with works he had done elsewhere
throughout the country.
Despite the pioneer figure's obvious anonymity rein
forced in a letter from a Commission member to Charles A.
Sprague of the Oregon Statesman speculation persists
Ellerhusen must have worked from some sort of model. One
version claims the sculptor used a likeness of one Gus Weis,
legendary logger from Southern Oregon, who had a habit of
winning Paul Bunyan contests during the 1920s. And not a few
bonafide descendants of real pioneers believe they perceive a
similarity with the west-facing statue's face and that of an
actual antecedent.
It is doubtful Ellerhusen intended other than the
symbolic pioneer that emerged from his mind's eye. None
theless, the artist did possess a keen wit and only after
installation of a magnificent frieze on Louisiana's State
Capitol did he reveal one seven-foot figure in a business suit
was actually a likeness of The Kingfish Huey P. Long.
So when you visit Salem and gaze at this sculptor's work,
rest assured the Oregon Pioneer really doesn't look like
