lone Yard of Month
Mr. and Mrs. Milton Morgan -
Mr. and Mrs. Milton Morgan, lone, were presented with the
lone Yard of the Month award. The Morgans live on 1st st. in
lone.
The Morgans yard was chosen for the award because of the
nice appearance of the house, yard and lawn. Everything
looked neat, clean and orderly, said a club spokesperson.
Many elderly persons may not have flowers becuase of
their need of constant upkeep, so flowerless yards are not
ineligible for the award, said a club spokesperson. It takes
enough time and work to keep up a yard with a lawn, trees
and shrubs, especially in the summer, she added.
The Hiding Place'
to be shown in
Irrigon Sept. 20
By FRANCES ROSE WILSON
The true story of Corrie ten
Boom, a former Nazi prison
er, will be presented through
the motion picture, "The
Hiding Place" on Sunday,
Sept. 20 at 7 p.m. at the
Assembly of God Church on
8th St. in Irrigon.
This remarkable story of
tragedy and victory shares the
experience of a family who
was willing to risk all for
others. The ten Booms be
came involved in the Dutch
Underground during the Ger
man occupation of World War
II by hiding Jews in a secret
room built in their house,
thereby aiding them in their
escape from the Nazis. As a
result of the raid by soldiers,
Corrie's family was taken
prisoner and Corrie was sent
to the dreaded concentration
camp, "Ravensbruck".
Millions of readers have
been able to relate to Corrie
ten Boom and her family
through the book "The Hiding
Place." Now a motion picture
captures the power, excitment
and dramatic force that sets
this story apart from others.

scheduled at Hope Lutheran
John Maas, pastor of the
Lutheran congregations in the
area has announced The
Covenant Players, a Christian
Theater Company with
troupes of players all over the
world, will be performing at
Hope Lutheran Church in

23 at 7 p.m. The program is
scheduled early so young
children can come. There will
be a freewill offering to cover
their expenses, said Rev. John
Maas.
The players will concentrate
on the themes of forgiveness
and family. They will use this

over 900 plays.
The Covenant Players was
created to let people hear and
respond to the vibrant chal

strive to communicate in a
way too engrossing to ignore,
too much fun to get upset
about, and too potent and
personal to be rationalizes
away, added Maas.
Those who wish to attend
are advised to come early as
seating is limited at about 100.
However, ther will be standing
room if all seats are occupied,
said Maas.

Wilderness.
How much is too much?
By federal definition, Wilderness is "an area
where the earth and its community of life are
untrammelled by man, where man himself is a
visitor who does not remain." Wilderness is to be
preserved, its enduring beauty to be enjoyed by
future generations.
Wilderness cannot be used for forest produc
tion or for developed recreation. Access is only
by foot, horseback, or canoe. There are no picnic
tables, toilets, roads, firepits, or lean-tos allowed
in Wilderness.
A nationwide public opinion survey last year
found that nearly one-fourth of the people
thought developed campgrounds were plentiful
in Wilderness areas. In fact, there are none.
3 million acres more?
Oregon now has over 1.2 million acres of
Congress ionally-designated Wilderness. The
nation has over 80 million Wilderness acres
spread across 41 states. Now, Congress is consid
ering adding another 3 million acres of Wilder
ness in Oregon. How much is too much?
If we lock up too much productive land and
let Congress throw away the key how can the
increasing wood product needs of America be
met: In addition, there
is a growing need for
more campgrounds, the
improved areas where
most people choose to
enjoy the outdoors.
We feel that existing
Wilderness areas are a
wise use of federal land.
We supported the
original 1964 Wilder
ness Act, and continue
to support the preser
vation of truly unique
areas. However, further

arbitrary additions to the current 1.2 million
acres of Wilderness already set aside in Oregon
will limit both recreational opportunities and
our ability to meet future demand for wood
products.
What you can do.
It's especially important for people who
work and live in communities with forest
products operations to take an interest in the
Wilderness issue.
The just-published 1980 Oregon Timber
Supply Assessment of the State Forestry De
partment points out that "between 1975 and
1980 the National Forests in Oregon moved 1.16
million acres from the four timber-producing
categories, 9 of the National Forest timber
land, into non-timber uses, such as Wilderness."
Timber supply is too important to Oregon's
forest-based economy to lock up productive land
without a good reason.
Please write us for more information: Oregon
Forest Industries Council, P.O. Box 12519,
Salem, OR 97309, or call 588-0050. For an
alternative point of view, write: The Oregon
Wilderness Coalition, 271 West 12th Avenue,
Eugene, OR 97401, or
call 344-0675.
When you decide
how you stand on the
issue, talk about it with
your friends, write a
letter to the editor , or
call the Oregon offices
of your Congressman
and Senators. Together
we can keep a
good thing growing.
