Firewood available
for Senior Citizens
Police Report
Senior Citizens who need
firewood should get in touch
with the Heppner Neighbor
hood Center right away. The
U.S. Forest Service made 100
cords of wood available to
seniors in this area. Center
workers have cut the wood
and will deliver it to fixed-income
seniors, but must get the
list of those wanting it
completed very soon.
Pat Brindle says that any
seniors who did not get their
Social Security cost-of-living
increases recently should
phone 1-800-452-1654, the toll
free number of the Portland
office where all records are
kept, or should come in to the
Heppner Neighborhood Center
for help with this matter.
The Morrow County Senior
Citizens Advisory Council will
meet next Tuesday, August 29,
at 1:30 p.m. in the conference
room of the Columbia Basin
Electric Co-op.
Fourteen-year-old Patrick
Parker of Heppner suffered
head cuts and a broken arm
last Friday when the bicycle
he was riding collided with a
pickup truck on Water Street,
when Curtis Lyle Sweek
backed his truck onto the
street from his driveway.
Sweek told officers that he
looked for traffic before back
ing onto the roadway, and
seeing none, proceeded onto
the street. Parker's bike then
slammed into the truck, police
said.
Parker was taken to Com
munity Hospital in Pendleton.
A car driven by Larry Allan
Palmer of Heppner received
extensive damage Monday
night when it slammed into a
telephone pole on South Court
Street at Cannon, city police
said.
Officers said Palmer lost
control of his car and spun on
the pavement, with the rear of
the car striking the pole. No
one was injured.
Palmer was cited for reck
less driving.

AroundAbout
Cont. from page 3
We were so favorably impressed by the cuisine in the
dormitory such a fine variety of choices and such generous
servings cf everything. We visited with some of the young
people who are in a YCC pilot project that has them working
with the BLM and living on the campus. This project enlists
them for one year and offers them splendid opportunities.
Many of them have come to Oregon from the Los Angeles
area.
I learned that the Jackson County Fair, completed before
our arrival, reached extra heights temperature-wise 107
one day and an all-time record 110 on another. People and
exhibits really wilted.
It was pleasing to arrive home safely Friday evening and
to find our yards and gardents had been naturally watered. I
had wondered about leaving my new puppy, but Rood new
neighbor on the south, Brad Christensou, nd good older
neighbor on the north, Dee Crist, kindly managed young Tip
and old cat Sam most expertly.
However, it was gratifying to have both Tip and Sam
indicate that they were pleased to have me home again that
boosted my ego.
Last weekend brought such fun here with the Fair
activities. All who worked at getting the buildings ready and
setting up the exhibits did outstanding jobs. The 4-H Action
Alley drew many participants and viewers. I heard special
raves about the art, photography and craft displays. Shorty
Peck's new museum of old farm tools is a great addition to
the Fair and should house a constantly growing collection. It
seems to me that the community booths are looking better
each year. .
Saturday evening's chicken dinner, potato auction and
musical entertainment were crowd pleasing. Harold Kerr did
a dandy job as M.C. Queen Velva and King Adrain Bechdolt
looked great and are so worthy of special honor. How lucky
everyone felt when the events managed to be completed
before the rain came.
County Judge D.O. Nelson was being very helpful all day
and evening Saturday, and it seems I heard that D.O. was
doing very well at horseshoe pitching the next day, too.
Sunday parking space was pretty scarce near the fair
buildings and many families were really enjoying the
colorful exhibits. The displayed animals and birds seemed
happy with the pleasant, cool weather.
I think this is the first year of two full weekends of
activity at the fairgrounds. Tomorrow and Saturday and
Sunday the Rodeo will draw lots of attention. The annual
parade and the Episcopal barbeque are also set for next
weekend. Both Saturday nights' are given to dances after the
shows end.
Because the 4-H exhibits that are going to Salem are so
outstanding they are sure to bring many honors and prizes
to our county. For one thing how can any group expect to
come even close to the tremendous tole painting done by
Morrow's maidens?
Some of us hope to rest up between the Fair and Rodeo
and Labor Day weekend, but I hear that many will be taking
off for post-harvest and pre-school vacations and trips to the
State Fair.. Here's wishing them all safe traveling!

Alaska lawyer visits parents
A telephone call on a busy
afternoon recently, brought
good news to Clarence and
Hazel Bauman. Their son
Carl, practicing attorney in
Anchorage, was in San Fran
cisco on business and phoned
to tell his parents that he
would be coming to Heppner
to spend some time with them.
In the meantime, a second
son, Jack Holt and wife of.
Oregon City, were vacationing
in Central Oregon and had
decided to pay a surprise visit.
It was the first time both
boys have been home together
for several years and the
family made the most of the
unplanned reunion.
