EIGHT The Heppner Gaiette-Tlnies, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday. January 28, 1982
Around About
By Justine Weatherford
After several weeks of constantly hearing about Super
Bowl Sunday on the air and reading about it in almost every
print media, the super-hype really got heavy the last few
days before the tremendous contest in the Silver Dome of icy
Pontiac, Michigan. The publicity barrage definitely paid
off commercials on TV during the broadcast of the event
brought super prices, millions in Mexico and Canada joined
the multi-millions here in the U.S. in viewing direct
boradcasting of this sell-out world championship event. I
watched the entire four hours from the opening through the
20-0 first half and to the more exciting dramatic final
moments.
Maybe you read of the possible impact of the game on Wall
Street where some analysts were saying "If San Francisco
49'ers win, it will be a favorable portent for stock prices. If on
the other hand, the Cincinnati Bengals prevail, a continued
bear market may be in store" (from the Sunday Oregonian,
JatK 24, 1982).
Since TV was brought to this community through the
efforts of Winn Crist and others the lives of young and older
. folks have surely been changed. We older ones may reflect
that we are glad it wasn't around during our school
days competing with our reading and studying time. When I
was first told by pupils that "I study better when the TV is
on." I couldn't buy the notion, and I still don't buy it. Guess I
have a really one-track mind the eyes and ears that feed my
mind need to be focused on only one thing at a time.
My favorite channel (listed as channel 10, but actually
channel 12 here) is P.B.S. Several weeks ago I mentioned
that the 13-part BBC series "Life on Earth" promised much
interest and excitement. Now I have viewed the first two
installments of this insightful documentary, which is actually
a college level course. Its photography is most outstanding
and the chronological narrative is easily understood by even
those without scientific backgrounds, like me. Each weekly
episode is worth watching even if one can't stay with the
series. Why not give it a try on Tuesday or Sunday evening?
That's enough for now about TV which fills so many hours of
so many lives these days.
Every parent feels pride over the success of a child.
Grandmother Snoda Blake is feeling proud of two members
of her family who have achieved recent success. Her son
Darrell Blake, who had all of his public education in Heppner
before going off to the U. of 0. has recently been promoted to
the head spot at the State Funds Accident Insurance office at
Clackamas. He and his wife Ardith and their two children,
who are both students at O.I.T. in Klamath Falls, will soon be
making their home near his new work.
Snoda 's granddaughter, Paula Heinrichs, a 1980 graduate
of Heppner High, now a sophomore at Portland Community
College, was on the President's List of noteworthy students
last year and this year has qualified for the honor roll for her
fall work. Not only Paula's grandmother Snoda and her
parents, the Paul Heinrichs feel happy about her success, her
former teachers and friends in the community here are also
delighted.
Because I was asked to gather some facts about Mary
McCoy, I had a most enjoyable visit with this wife of
Heppner's newest physician. I learned that Mary is Danish,
that she lived in Brazil much of her childhood, that she "fell
in love with Oregon during the seven years that she taught
English in Grants Pass" and that she is very happy to be
living in Heppner now.
When I gathered some facts about the activities of the
Morrow County Gem and Mineral Society and learned that
the group will be visiting Plush, Oregon, I had to learn more
about that spot. The meager information I have about Plush
doesn't make it sound too plushy. The community northeast
of Lakeview and near the western edge of Hart Mountain
holds one business building, a combined store, gas station
and post office and there are a few homes nearby. Because
I had such a wonderful experience visiting the Malheur
National Wildlife Refuge near Frenchglen last year with
Steve Brownfield's Field Experience class, I am thinking of
asking the Rockhounds if maybe I can join them for their
projected fieldtrip.
In last week's column I told readers about Bouapeth
Thongdy coming to share my home. I wrote "Because she is
needing to work extra hard at learning a completely new
language, she is studying diligently." Now I wish to say that
sentence is not the whole story about Bouapeth 's studying. In
all Oriental cultures scholarship is revered. All scholars,
teachers, doctors and other professional people are greatly
respected. As you might know, this is the time of the 4,680th
celebration of the Chinese New Year. Perhaps when our
country lives about 4,450 more years, scholarship will mean
more to some folks here who don't value it too much now.
Bouapeth is eager to prepare herself for hospital work. In
all of the Orient and in the Middle East and other far parts of
the world the majority of medical doctors are female. In our
country an increasing number of women are becoming
trained for medical careers and for other professional work.
It is thrilling to me to see a young person working eagerly to
prepare for a field of work which he or she really likes.
