"I'd think the Legislature
would be very concerned. We
should be asking why it's
happening," she says.
Paulus says it may be a
harbinger of the conservative
mood which appears to be
sweeping the country with the
people calling for less govern
ment. "Last year we were up to
our hips in initiative peti
tions," she says. "We're
hardly two months in to the
1980 cycle and we have three
times as many filed."

Most American communi
ties make an annual effort to
clean up after each winter, to
re-stimulate civic pride and to
present a "smiling face" on
the arrival of spring.
Monday evening, March 12,
the City Beautification and
Improvement Committee of
the Chamber of Commerce
held a planning meeting for
this spring's campaign. Chair
man Father Kenneth Miller,
Marshal Lovgren., Ed Gonty
and Gene Pierce along with
interested citizens Robert
Lowe, Paul Sumner and Mark
Lovgren worked at planning "
the means of achieving civic
beautification and improve
ment. They agreed that citizen
attitude and community de
sire for a good clean up are the
.most important and most
necessary elements in a
successful campaign.
Preliminary discussion fo
cused on five areas needing
considerable work: the first,
the gravel problem left after
the winter storms ; the second,
the extreme amounts of as
sorted litter; the third, a need
to burn large areas where
weeds are already a fire
hazard; the fourth, the need to
remove limbs, debris, weeds
and litter from private and
public property, and fifth, the
need to eliminate graffiti from
all buildings.
The weekend of March 30, 31
and April 1 has been designat
ed for the climax of the
campaign and the achieve
ment of the goal to have a
cleaner, more attractive and
safer community. Each civic,
fraternal and political group
will be contacted by the
members of the committee
and asked to cooperate in the
campaign.
It is hoped that the city may
be divided into specific areas
and that groups of perhaps six
to, eight persons will be
committed to each area's
clean up and then, if possible,
to its continued inspection and
upkeep.
One man has already volun
teered to clean up the rubbish
from the site of the Heppner
Elementary School out to the
city limit along Hinton Creek

Road. A member of the
committee has volunteered to
clean the walk and adjacent
area from the Public Library
over the foot bridge to the
Junior High School. Another
member of the planning group
will be contacting the school
administration and staff ask
ing to have efforts made to
stimulate student cooperation
and to promote more civic
pride among the young people.
The committee looks for
ward to support from the
mayor and City Council in this
spring endeavor.
It is hoped that trucks will
be available, along with
drivers, to help carry the
public-area trash and litter
collections away; but not to
assume the responsibility for
the removal of household
trash which each family will
want to be removing as it
works along with its own
cleaning of its premises.
Another committee meet
ing, which all interested
persons and organizational
representatives are invited to
attend, will be held next
Monday, March 19, at 8 p.m. in

Episcopal Church. For further
details, contact Father Ken
Miller at 676-9970 during the
