Communion
& Lutherans
"Take, eat,
this is my body,
given for you."
"All of you, drink:
This cup is the
new covenant,
in my blood."
It is faith that
touches the Lord.
But when the Lord
says something like this,
how do you believe it?
Obviously,
by ead'ng and drinking.
We obey the command.
We trust that God
is able to give what
he promised.
And so the Lord
touches us that
we may reach out
to Him.
Which is what
"sacraments" make possible:
faith's communion with
the Lord as a
gift to the whole person.

With the beginning of summer, the usual team sports
seem to attract less attention than the recreational pursuits
in the nearby mountains and on the golf course.
The county roads are normally filled with tourist traffic '
: streaming to Penland Lake or Bull Prairie Reservoir for
i weekend campouts.
During a recent news assignment in the Heppner Ranger
; District, I had a chance to drive through the almost
untouched forest meadows between Bull Prairie and Tupper
: Guard Station and noticed a group of R V's parked in a quiet,
: forested field. They appeared to be enjoying "getting aui
i from it all" away from the regular campgrounds.
The reservoir looked peaceful with only a few nprk
: visitors and YCC workers, untouched by weekend boafmg
i activities. The Youth Conservation Corps has announced
; plans for a second fishing dock to be built on the lake, adding
to its fishing accessibility for those visitors without boats,
i Because of the approaching fire season, forest visitors
: are advised to carry a shovel and bucket in their car and
during Fourth of July, to keep carnpfires within established
s parks. Keep Oregon green and beautiful.
It would be a great idea on Fourth of July if one of the
s communities or group of citizens in Morrow County arranged
i sporting events in a celebration of the holiday. I "feel such 1
; events as a youth and adult bicycle race, lake rubber raft or
i inner tube race on Penland Lake or Bull Prairie might keep
: people at home and save on gas supplies. ; '
If your sport is horseshoe pitching, you might be J
i interested in watching the Oregon Open Money Horseshoe
; Tournament Saturday and Sunday, June 30 and July 1 on the '
i Weber Field Courts in Hermiston. The tourney is expected to t ;
draw some of the top men and women pitchers from , -throughout
the Pacific Northwest.
Last year, 53 pitchers entered from Washington, Oregon,
California and Idaho and $2,700 awarded in prize money.
Interested contestants had to apply by Wednesday.
The pitching begins at 9 a.m. on both days.
Angels hang on to narrow
league lead in second half
The Angels held on to their
lead in the second half of the
Little League this week des
pite a 2-3 loss to the Dodgers
who are tied for second place.
The Angels have a 4-1 record
and the Dodgers a 3-2 record.
The Giants are tied for second
place with an identical 3-2
mark.
Giants captured a pair from
the Braves and the Angels and
Dodgers split a pair in the
weekly action. The Giants
defeated the Braves 6-3 and 8-4
to move into their tie with the
Dodgers.
And the Dodgers were
defeated in Condon, 8-10, but
came back to win by a point
over the Angels, 3-2. Their win
snapped a four game winning
streak by the Angels.
There are two weeks left in
the Little League season.

Conservation Contest
Winners Each Ride Off With
Pair of 10-Speed Bikes
Two winners rode off with 10-speed bicycles
as the top prizes in PGE's recently concluded
Design-A-Conservation-Billboard contest. Tina
Maniatis, Portland was the under 18-age first
prize winner with the words, "Plug into Con
servation Unplug what you don't need",
connected with an electrical cord with a
plug on the end. The senior, over-18 winner, was
Beverley Sweet, also of Portland with the
words, "I didn't save energy either" appearing
on a blacked-out background. Eighteen other
runners-up winners received gift certificates
for energy-saving clothing such as sweaters
and parkas. PGE thanks some 15,000
conservation-minded people for requesting
entry blanks.
Conservation Winner Says
"Thanks"
Dear PGE,
Thank you for choosing my design as one of
the nine runners-up in your conservation
contest.
I shall use the certificate in the manner in
which you indicated, probably bruying
sweaters.
I do feel it is an honor, thank you again.

Boardman Coal Plant
Passes Midway Mark
One of the several needed generating plants
that has not been delayed and is on schedule in
the Northwest is the 530,000 kilowatt
Boardman coal-fired plant in North Central
Oregon. Approximately 1000 workmen are on
the job putting the plant past the midway mark
with a construction schedule calling for it to
produce electricity by late summer, 1980. Con
tracts totalling $200 million have been let since
construction began in February, 1976. The
plant, owned principally by PGE, will represent
a total investment of an estimated $535 million.
"Keep Trojan Working"
Say Nearby Residents
.Following the accident at the Three Mile
Island nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania in
March, 1979, PGE hired the independent sur
vey firm of Batdsley & Haslacher to find out
how the residents of Columbia County felt
about the Trojan plant. The interviewers asked
the straightforward question of "Would you
favor or oppose shutting down the Trojan
nuclear plant in Oregon?" The results: 87 per
cent opposed shutting down of Trojan 7 per
cent favored the shutting down of Trojan; 6
percent were undecided. The plant, as most
PGE customers know, is located in Columbia
County and almost nine out of 10 of those
residents oppose shutting down the plant. PGE
thanks those residents for their
resounding vote of confidence
in the operation of Trojan.
PGE, Four Other Utilities To
Select Geothermal Site
As part of its program in developing alterna
tive generating resources, PGE is participating
with four other Western Utilities in selecting a
site, probably by fall, for a prototype geother
mal generating plant. The five-company group
is evaluating bids submitted by engineering
firms to design a generating plant and several
geothermal developers will be asked to submit
site suggestions later this month. The site is
likely to be in northern Nevada.
Government Tax Credits
Available for Solar Assists
Sizeable savings in the form of Oregon and
federal income tax credits can be realized by
homeowners who purchase and install solar
water and space heating systems. For example,
Oregon offers a tax credit of 25 percent of the
cos of a system to a maximum of $1000. The
federal government provides a credit of 30
percent on the first $2,000 and 20 percent on
the next $8,000 with a maximum credit of
$2,200. On a $4000 solar system, more than
half of the purchase price is returned to the
purchaser through tax credits. For $4,000 to
$10,000 systems, 33 to 50 percent is returnable
depending on the actual installed price. For
further details, write the Department of Energy, ,
Room 111, Labor and Industries Bldg., Salem,
OR 97310 or call PGE, 226-8478.
