FOl'R The Heppner Gazette-Times. Heppner. Oregon. Thursday. January 31. WO itV. "i . 1 A K' 'I i i 4 - 5r S Willi luMinc Wea I hei ford J In spite of lengthening days and changing seasons many weeks seem much alike: however, for me. last week was very different. Not only did I spend 2"j days in Portland, where I enjoyed a great musical treat, saw two top films, and had pleasing visits with family and friends not often seen, but after returning to Heppner I enjoyed some more fine visiting as well hearing a good book review and more musical treats. To top off the week, we had a sparkling, clean snowfall. Ola Mae Groshens and I had a fine drive down the Columbia River on Sunday morning. Jan. 20. noting great ice cascades along the north-facing cliffs below Hood River and the huge piles of dirty, collected snow remaining at Cascade Locks. We both remarked at the dearth of traffic on 80-N. We were surprised to see so many U-Haul. move-yourself trucks. We two were delighted to spend "Super Bowl Sunday" afternoon in the Portland Auditorium along with thousands of others attending the super bowl of music by the Oregon Symphony Orchestra. Norman Leyden conducted so ably, and Marie Rogndahl Peake, my lovely, talented sister-in-law. was the guest soloist. The program featured a delightful variety, including three Edvard Grieg composi tions, one of which the "Norwegian nightingale" sang in her superb coloratura soprano. She .also sang two Johann Strauss. Jr. numbers and the beautiful Franz Lehar "Ich Bin Verliebt." After the concert we made our way to the Baghdad Theater to view "Kramer vs Kramer", a new film which will be considered for many awards. I was particularly pleased with the performance of young Justin Henry, the little boy who is centrala to the plot. Ola Mae. who habitually watches many hours of television and rarely gets to a movie theater, was delighted that there were no commercial interruptions. On Monday, after delivering Ola Mae to the airport for her flight to San Diego where she is visiting with her Navy son. Grant Carter, and family. I took care of some business affairs. At noon I lunched in the Terwilliger Plaza with some dear retired friends. I tried to visit with Hortense Martin, but didn't find her at home. My friends, one of whom was my teacher at U.S. Grant High School fifty years ago, told me that Hortense is so busy, is active on so many committees, is helpful to many Plaza residents. My afternoon was spent at the University of Oregon Health Sciences Center, where I am periodically a patient in the otolarngology department and. on this trip in oncology. As I drove to and from the teaching hospital, across the city from my brother's home. I was astonished at the mass of broken trees which city workers were still clearing away after the recent silver thaw. Because I have always enjoyed good cinema. I took myself to see "Going in Style" that evening. My comparison nf this film with the one I viewed the previous night might not be in agreement with professional reviewers; however, I really enjoyed the second movie more than I had the first. Both are set mainly in New York City: both deal with sociological problems. "Kramer vs Kramer" pictures the agony of divorce and a child custody struggle, while "Going in SI vie" shows the boredom of retirement and the frugal life of elderly men dependent on meager social security incomes. Both leads. Dustin Hoffman and George Burns, are excellent, but I was more delighted by Lee Strassburg and Art Carney, who carried their parts so superbly that I would vote for them in the strong supporting roles as most worthy of academv honors. Do you know that senior citizens now pay only $1.50 admission to any first-class cinema in Portland? When I decided lo splurge on some popcorn. I found that the smallest available paper cupful costs 85 cents. On Tuesday, after a morning checkup in oncology. I gathered some boxes of freight and began my drive home alone against strong gorge winds, arriving back in Heppner jusl in lime to enjoy a Senior Citizen dinner. That evening the Bookworms gathered at the Cornett Green home. It was so pleasing to have Sadie Parrish and Rachel Dick attend for the first time in years and to have Pauline Hughes return after months of absence. Lorena Jones presented a good review of Howard Fast's "The Establishment", the third-in-a-series novel set in San Francisco. Wednesday morning I got back to my usual chores, then at nonn I attended the ecumenical service for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity at Heppner's Christian Church. Almost all of the south-county ministers parlicipaled in the program arranged by the Rev. Cathy Barker. lone, who along with the host pastor, the Rev. Edwin W. Sikes spoke words of welcome. Organ music by Dorene Reed and special music, a vocal and guitar duet by Miss Barker and the Rev. Sheridan greatly enhanced the well-arranged and skillfully presented cooperative service. On Thursday my pace slowed. There was a good Bible study in the morning and a helpful visit in the home of Faye Pierce. R.N.. that afternoon. Friday. I was glad to have a quiet day by my own fireside lo lake care of some needed letter writing. Saturday, my week ended with attendance at the concert by the young troubador. Jerry Gobel. in St. Patrick's Parish Hall. A remarkable singer-guitarist. Gobel composes his own music and writes the lyrics he delivers so sincerely. He recounts inspirational experiences he has had in his six years of performing in many places before audiences numbering up to about seven thousand and down to just a few. His program was well received by the cordial folks of the parish and their visiting guests. Now I've begun a usual week with my usual attendance at an uplifting church service, where the music-makers Carley Drake. Judy Paine, Shirley Connor. Karen Howe and Arnie Hedman and the choir members at the United Methodist Church were especially honored during the morning service and the after-worship coffee hour. After a noon meal with congenial friends I had a brief, interesting chat with three lively, tall, young sheepshearers from New Zealand I chanced to meet in the Heppner Laundromat. This week will include attending the Heppner High School mystery play. "The Night Is My Enemy", some visiting with returning traveler Inez Erwin. probably several good meals with other senior citizens, and already plotted and perhaps some unplotted activities. And so in spite of the rumblings of financial, social and political calamities about the globe life seems pretty good for me in Heppner in Oregon.
