She loaned out her car to William Wells Rhinehart and Gary Sager, both of Pendleton, and they wrecked it. The pair were driving toward Pilot Rock on Highway 74 when a deer reportedly jumped out on the road. To avoid hitting the animal Rhinehart swerved off the road and when he turned to gel back on it, the car rolled. Sager was reported as being intoxicated and he said he did not know what happened.

Deadline for registra tion is Oct. 10 In Morrow County Court action last week. Judge Del win O.Nelson's resignation was accepted. The court also discussed the need for a new car but it decided to wait to get one when the new county judge takes office. Farley Motor Co., of Heppner, gave quotes on some cars but official bids have not been given yet. A "Memorandum of Under standing" was signed by the court and Dick McElligott of the Heppner soil and water conservation district. The memorandum essentially says the county and the conservation district will work together and cooperate to build a program which is mutually beneficial in the conservation of natural re sources. The court had to sign it to meet standards set by the Department of Envi ronmental Quality. . Eastern Oregon Farms had a state permit and the court approved a county permit for the company to haul hay on a triple trailer in Morrow County. Forest lands in Morrow County have been a great source of income for the county in the past. Two years ago about $67,000 was brought in and last year $65,000 was the amount contributed to the county from forest land. Because of cutbacks, only $18,000 was budgeted by the county to come in this year but the court found out Wednes day the actual amount to expect will be in the area to $31,591. Signs will be posted in the county in dangerous areas where logging trucks travel to warn other vehicles of the hazard. Some roads in the county are narrow and when truckers drive down them, other vehicles are often forced off the road.
