The 3-6 Cards were led by Tammy Holtz with 11 points, " Martha McElligott had 6, Lori Edwards 5, Anita Palmer 2, Diann Morter 2 and Margaret Doherty scored 1.

Recent rains in the upper Columbia river basin have helped ease the situation somewhat, as have the moderate temperatures we have been ex periencing lately in the Willamette Valley. To meet the demands of our PGE customers, the company's emergency combustion tur bines continue to operate. The Trojan re pairs have been completed and we hope that by the time you read this the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has completed re quired inspections and hearings and that the 1100 megawatt plant will be back on line. This would help the situation greatly. In the meantime, we ask that our customers double their conservation efforts. If all ef forts fail, mandatory curtailment of electri cal use may be required. We sincerely hope that is not necessary. Popular TV Conservation Show Continues on KPTV PGE is continuing to sponsor the popular How To With Pete" do-it-yourself conser vation TV show on channel 12, Saturday mornings at 10 to 10:30 a.m. For viewer's information, PGE's Mr. Conservation, Pete Prlain, will tell you "What's New in Energy Saving" on January 5; the following Satur day, January 12, he shows viewers "How to Install a Sliding Storm Door;" on January 19, he explains "What Weatherization Is All About;" and on January 26, you'll learn all about "What's New in Making Your Own Storm Windows." Complete schedules of the shows which run through March 8, are available at all PGE offices. Pick one up and attach it to the refrigerator door so you won't miss any of these energy- and money-saving shows. Clothes Lines, Racks Good Conservation Idea One of our good conservation-minded customers called last month explaining what she is doing to conserve electricity and suggested that we pass on her watt watching practices to our other customers. Here 'tis: she simply dries her heavy towels and jeans on an in expensive clothes rack in the utility room which cuts down on the amount of electric ity it takes to dry an entire load of wash. Going a step further, if you have a basement, investing in a retractable clothes line is another good idea. With this and a few dozen clothespins, you can virtually elimi nate using the dryer altogether. Assuming , that it takes 30 minutes to dry a load of wash which uses approximately 3 to 5 kilowatt-hours every line-dried load saves you 7-12. Another bonus the exercise is good for you. Look Up and Look Out If you received a CB, a TV or a radio for Christmas that requires the installation of a rooftop antenna, you're anxious to begin operations. Some words of caution: antenna installation can be dangerous, and the safest, easiest way to do it is to hire an expert. The professional knows what to do and has the tools to do it quickly and safely. If you do it yourself, however, make sure that you use extreme caution in keeping the antenna a good, long distance away from power lines. Antennas are clumsy to handle, will sway in a wind and your perch is precarious at best on a sloping rooftop. So, good buddy, please be careful so you can enjoy your gift. Seniors Get Special Help For Special Circumstances To counsel and to care for the special problems that PGE's senior customers might have, the company has four representatives who have special information and programs available to help solve those problems. The four young women who can be contacted by senior customers are: Brenda Hammond in the Gresham, Clackamas County areas; Barbara Carey in the Woodburn, Silverton, Sheridan and Salem areas; Carolyn Schaef ers, Portland, Milwaukie, and Lake Oswego areas; and Lynda Danielson, the Beaverton, .
