The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, Nov.2, 1978 THREE oooooosoeoso99occcocooooeooeoo GORIIAM STERLING Madc-to-order PROGRAM Largest suit in Wheeler history nets $80,000 A 12-person Wheeler County jury headed out nearly $80,000 in civil damages against the State of Oregon and two Oregon State Police livestock officers Oct. 17 for malicious prosecution. Ed Kendall of Spray was awarded $31,000 and Timothy Day of Pendleton $48,300 for unwarranted first degree theft indictments made against them April 8, 1975. The original indictment ac cused Day and Kendall of illegally selling calves belong ing to George Griffith of Cecil. The complex and unusual case originated in the fall of 1974 when Griffith contracted with Day and Kendall to pasture cattle on lands in Wheeler County. The courts have since vindi cated the partners of all charges. Livestock police officers Gerald Wayne Hodges and James Duncan were co defendants in the suit with the State of Oregon in the five day trial argued before Judge Walter Edmonds in the Wheel er County Courthouse. Attorney for Kendall was Michael J. Sweeney of Hep pner and attorney for Day was Gene Hallman of Pendleton. The combined judgement is the largest sum ever awarded in Wheeler County. lUm mi i i No endorsement from OEA a plus, Bellamy says "I think that OEA (Oregon Educational Association) and other public employee unions are exerting far too much influence in Salem," said District 55 Representative candidate Bill Bellamy. Bellamy, a Republican from Culver, made the statement following OEA's endorsement of Chuck Bennett, Bellamy's Democratic opponent, as the teacher organization's choice for District 55's seat in the Oregon House of Representa tives. Bellamy, a vocational agri culture instructor in Jefferson County, noted that "it is unusual that a teacher run ning for the state legislature does not accept help from the teachers' union." Bellamy said that he refused to join the OEA this year. "The camp aign expenses filed in Salem last week show that the OEA and the Oregon State Employ ees Association lost no time in trying to preserve their influ ence by donating seventeen hundred dollars to my oppon ent. I am proud that I don't have to knuckle under to the teacher special interest group or any other special interest group..." 4 : . 1 " . .. '1 w- y - - o ' 1 : ' v - . j !
