David and April Hilton Sykes, Publishers Letters to the Editor Make solar heat for pool a reality To the Editor: It has been called to the attention of some of our local citizens that the utilities to heat our city swimming pool are becoming prohibitive due to the inflationary cost of petroleum. This year's bill was approximately $2,200. At the same time it was learned that Condon, Oregon, was in the process of building a solar system for their own pool which is located on the public school grounds. Today their system is completed and from all indications it is a great success. The cost of this system was about $20,000. Cost to the community of Condon was $10,000. Grants were received in the amount of $10,000. Solar energy is one of today's answers to an inex pensive means of heating the environment in which we work and play. There are enough people in Heppner, including members of the Lion's Club, who want to see a totally integrated solar system which eventually may include a dome designed to cover the pool and built in such a way as to make it possible to have a year-round recreational area. Members of the Lions' Club and students at Heppner Elementary School have be come actively involved in ' Public Wednesday. Nov. 5 - Morrow County Court. Courthouse. Heppner. 10 a.m. Monday.

MICHAEL MOORE WILL BE AT HIS OFFICE IN HEPPNER U0r J. -WED. ONLY NOV. 24-26. seeking further information, including the gathering of cost estimates to put a functional system together for the gen eral public to use. The Lions' Club and other concerned citizens in Heppner are interested in your ideas and input toward this worth while project. There is a very limited amount of money available at this time which could be used for the project. We. therefore, are open to any suggestions in regard to acquiring more financial backing. We are convinced that if enough people in Heppner are for a recreational area backed up by solar heat, we will see this project become a reality within the very near future. Interested citizens please make your desires and or concerns known to one of the people below . or any mer. ber of the Heppner Lions' Club by Nov. 26. 1980. We would propose forming a community committee to work on this project if the people of Heppner favor it. Community support and citi zen action will be needed to make this proposal a reality.
