SIX The Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday November 9, 1978 r Hear and Their with Eva Hamlett TV show features lone There didn't seern to be much on television last Sun day evening, so I turned to KOIN, Channel 6, and was listening to Northwest Illus trated program. Along toward the middle of the program they had a feature titled "Remembering". The an nouncer was stating that the wars had been over for many years and each year more is forgotten about them. How ever, there is lone, a small town in Eastern Oregon that still remembers. The television camera pick ed up the main street of lone, as the narrator said it is a windy city of new homes and well kept up older homes, and showed the big home on the corner of 2nd and B Streets (former owners were Elmer Ladd's). From there they traveled to the lone Football Field and Memorial, concen trating on on the flag pole and inscription on the base. Photographs were shown of the young men who lost their lives, as their names were read: Trench Aldrich, Herbert Davidson, Alfred Emert, Clar ence Harris, Bobby Morgan and Paul V. Rietmann. They then proceeded to the Ameri can Legion Hall, and as the narrator walked down the steps in front of the building, he said, "Every Memorial and Veteran's Day, a contingent of American Legion Veterans come down these steps and: march to the Memorial Field for their ceremonies." Only two of these men's bodies were brought back for burial. They then showed a picture of the Morgan Ceme tary where Herbert Davidson is buried, and then to High View Cemetary in lone, where the Paul V. Rietmann grave and marker stand. Back in town again at Rietmann's Hardware, a short interview with Gene Rietmann ended the program. Other communities do the same things, but we are happy they picked lone, as we are proud of our City and our American Legion Post No. 95. This Saturday, Nov. 11 at 10:45 a.m. there will be a ceremony at the Memorial Field. Following the program, coffee and doughnuts will be served at the American Leg ion Hall. Adon and I returned from a trip to California Saturday. We accompanied Eleanor and Elma McMillan to Palm Springs, and returned home by way of Hoover Dam and Las Vegas. The temperature in Palm Springs was in the 80's and 90's, but the farther north we came the weather cooled down. At Goldfield, Nev., there was still snow along the highway and we were surrounded by snow capped mountains. Isn't our high school football team doing great? We wish them luck and hope they end their season being the state champions. Gene's Cheveron station is in operation again after being closed for the month. Diana Hams was hostess for a party at her home Monday afternoon in honor of Debbie Morgan and Helen Pettyjohn birthdays. Roy and Katherine Lind strom returned home Monday afternoon from a trip to the Panama Canal and Virgin Islands. It will be interesting to find out about the other countries.
