SIX-The Heppner GairttcTimn. Heppner. Oregon. Thursday. Around About Some people may think this is the worst of all times, tout here in Heppner it seems like a pretty good time. Worst " first-the GNP, the stock market, cattle prices, employment figures and wages at the mill are down-but what a grand new post office, what a great wheat harvest, what a super homecoming celebration at the high school, what an exciting World Series, what glorious sunny days we have had recently! In the six weeks, since I last typed one of these columns, some local folks have been traveling around about. Eleanor and Ed Gonty made a two-week trip to visit their youngest son Staff Sft. Charles Douglas arid his wife and daughter at Cheyenne. Eleanor reports that they saw much wide open space between here and there, "lots of nothing." Mary Goheen took a tremendous 27-day tour of China by plane, bus, train and boat. We hope to be hearing more about her trip later. She enjoyed viewing Chinese acrobats, attending the opera and sadly had to become acquainted with four Chinese physicians, three of whom were women. Mary enjoyed the people of China so much that she says she would be happy to go there again soon. Helen Currin and I had a most interesting and pleasant v 36-day bus tour plus a Portland holiday at the Pacific International Livestock Show with her husband George. With 31 other tourists, a happy lady tour-guide and a wonderful bus driver, we traveled across Canada, down the great St. Lawrence Waterway, around the Gaspe Peninsula, down the east coast and home via Washington, D.C., the Pennsylvania La.tfl area, Toledo, Chicago, LaCrosse, Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Billings, Missoula and YaKima. We were in seven of Canada's ten provinces and in 23 of our 50 states. This was a Fall Foliage Tour. I have never seen as brilliant-colored foliage as we viewed, especially in New England. It is hard to say what places we enjoyed most because we really enjoyed everyplace we visited - even the stretches of open prairie. However, the cities of Canada, such as, Regina, Winnipeg, Montreal and Quebeck were delightful. We drove through Toronto, too, but didn't stop tnere. Not until I got home did I realize that our Albert Connor was for a time a youthful tourist guide in Salem, Massachusetts, his home town. Albert says he lived right beside the unique, historic House of Seven Gables and that he and other young fellows used to hop on tourists running boards (remember those) and show travelers to the old warf, to the historic Custom House, to the Seven Gables and to the various witch-episode spots. Sometimes the tourist would give these guides 25 cents. After soaking up lots of history in Canada, Maine, New .Hampshire, Massachusetts and little in Connecticut, with a great look around Cambridge and Boston, we reached the Big Apple where we had a thrilling time getting acquainted with Manhatten and Long Island and being the fortunate guests of Celia Currin and her husband Harvey Katz. Celia is an executive with Dow Jones on Wall Street. We saw the street but didn't get into her office. In our two and two-thirds days and three exciting nights we got a good sampling of, the best of life in the greatest American city. Celia took us to Sardi's and into Greenwich Village for dinners and to two current shows, "Sugar Babies" and "Deathtrap," and also chauffered us out to F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Great Gatsby" territory at East Hampton where Harvey Katz is in business and where they share weekends and some holidays in their T S I 1174 AUDI Fox 2-door 125,000 miles, orange.

After an early morning walk through part of Central Park, where we really enjoyed being in New Yorkers' "front yard" and where we came across a man still asleep under newspapers and plastic and saw the unusual Barbary sheep in the Children's Zoo, we joined our friendly bus group to cross under the Hudson via the Lincoln Tunnel into the Garden State, New Jersey, and then south through the first ' state, Delaware, and on into Maryland where we took the 17-mile bridge tunnel across and under Chesapeake Bay into Virginia and our day's destination, Williamsburg. What an amazing Saturday's travel that was! Our Sunday in Williamsburg was heavenly - perfect weather, an outstanding local guide, top-notch viewing of this Rockefeller Foundation restoration of Virginia's colonial capital. We participated in an amusing little drama in the Royal Governor's Palace and enjoyed visiting several craft shops. We really loved every minute in this historic place and in the earlier community of Jamestown which we visited next. Because I want to state how much I enjoyed the Heppner Homecoming game halftime show, I am now stopping my travelog which I hope to continue westward from Williamsburg in next week's paper. I believe I've attended most of the homecoming games here the last 15 years, but I have never seen such a great halftime show. It was so well planned and so well executed and involved so many students as well as the Dominican AFS student, several facutly and alumni. Its culmination in the crowing of this year's queen, then the fine rendition of "America The Beautiful" by Linda Gifford and the blazing flag and the booming rockets was spectacular. Many larger schools in larger communities have never produced such a fine show. Aren't we glad that talented. Jim Ackley is here to engineer such a spectacle! While Helen and I were seeing far away places she talked with her family several times, and we knew we were coming home to an undefeated Heppner football team. We heard about the troubles at Pilot Rock and were disappointed that the Heppner team didn't need to show much of its ability in last Friday's one-sided contest. However, maybe tomorrow the story will be different when they meet Stanfield. We expect they will play well and move into post-conference games still undefeated. IUCC sponsors Party.
