The holiday season has ended and the handful of residents here prepare to move when school ends. All residents were notified several weeks ago that the housing must be vacated by June 30 of this year. Most activity has come to a halt due to the extremely cold weather, here. The crew that has been tearing down the mill hasn't been working since before Christmas. The skeleton crew employed by Kinzua Corp. to maintain town services and dismantile the buildings has been very busy in an effort to keep water, sewer and fire lines open. Most residents spent the last few weeks close to home and fire, enjoying the beauty and quiet in our snow covered town. Nina Castle and her daugh ter Tara left Dec. 23 for Bonners Ferry, Idaho to spend the holidays with Nina's son, Jay Baker and his family. They also visited with her mother Ruth Arther before returning home Jan. 6. Lance and Hollie Van Meter and children, Clay and Charlotte, arrived Dec. 29 to visit with his family, Don and Barbara Pike and family. The whole family went to Portland Saturday to catch a glimpse of the newest family member, Nicole Lynn, through the nursery window. They also were able to visit a few minutes with the baby's mother, Patti Constantin, who was up for the first time after surgery. The Pikes and Van Meters returned to Kinzua that evening after spending several hours with the proud father. The Van Meters left for their home in Parma, Idaho Sundav evenine. give birth to the 1979 edition of the Umatilla County New Year's Baby. Mary Ann Munkers of Irrigon, the first baby to be born in Umatilla County 21 years ago, gave birth at 1:34 a.m. to eight pound, 5,: ounce Tiffany Ann Munkers. Mrs. Munkers, the 1977 queen of the Morrow County Fair and Rodeo, is a graduate of Riverside High School. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Rocky Proctor of Irrigon. Her husband, Barry Mun kers, is a graduate of Heppner High School, and also holds a degree in agribusiness from Blue Mountain Community College. The New Year's father is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Munkers of Lexington. The greatest tuition hike will come for out-of-state students who will pay $509 per term. Truman Baily, regis trar, reported that this hike will affect about eight stu dents currently enrolled at the college. Part-time and evening stu dents will be charged $11 per credit hour, up $2 from this year. Credit hour ratings for non-transfer courses may be less than for college transfer classes, keeping class costs down for the student who just wants to take a class or two. In summary, total tuition costs for one year at BMCC for the full-time student will be: in-district $411 (up from $375); out-of-district $555 (up from $495); and out-of-state $1,527 (up from $855). These figures include a $5 fee per term for student insurance. In other financial matters, the board revised bookkeeping procedures in handling funds for athletics, activities and student government. The revision brings the college more in line with procedures used at other colleges. In the future, student government funds will be completely separate from other college funded programs such as student newspaper, Rodeo Club, livestock judging, drama and athletics. In a report from President Daniels, the board heard that the college has completed purchase of a 4-wheel-drive pick-up and snow plow blade. Daniels also noted that com munication is continuing with NORPA on a college housing project.
