'TEN -The Heppner Gaictte-Tlmes. Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, April 22, 198?- AROUND ABOUT By Justine Weatherford Although it was actually almost one month late, spring has finally come to South Morrow Co., where we hope it will sparkle until summer is scheduled to arrive on June 21. Before summer's advent many special events will brighten life here. Those involved with schools as pupils or teachers or staff, know that their schedules are well filled. Last week's column suggested you mark calendars for the coming production of "Fiddler on the Roof" at Heppner High. I thought it would be given three nights, May 13-14-15, but have just talked with its director, Larry Cerullo, and now know that you must not plan on attending on Saturday, May 15, because it is set for just Thursday and Friday because of schedule pressures. Mr. Cerullo told me that the high school dramatists will be presenting a special evening on June 8, which I surely hope to attend. This will be a dinner theater at the high school, that will be sponsored by the Heppner Lion's Club as a benefit for the solar heating projecct at the town swimming pool. More details about that evening will be released later. One of Morrow County's biggest annual occasions is the Memorial Weekend Pioneer Picnic. This year the family of Pioneer Henry Padberg is in charge. Descendents of Mr. Padberg, who came here from northern Germany about 100 years ago, met last night at the home of the Eldon Padbergs in Lexington to work on plans for this year's picnic A story will be published about this thriving family and give details of their plans soon. This year's picnic will be on Sunday, May 30, at the county fairgrounds. Hopefully everyone survived T-Day on April 15. I was pretty well exhausted when I finally stuffed my four reports into four different envelopes and mailed Rem to the IRS and the Oregon Department of Revenue. It would be nice to have income taxes out of the way now, but many of us have to watch that we pay three more installments to the U.S. and Oregon for quarterly payments on our estimated income for 1982. Seems like we just never catch up with taxes. The 16th of April my Loatian housemate. Eleanor Gonty and I made a one-day" trip to Portland. The weather cooperated beautifully, the great snow-capped mountains Hood and Adams were brilliant, the Columbia River was clear and calm and the many waterfalls along the south-6ide cliffs were fascinating. Our various errands in Portland took Bouapeth and me all over town. We got a great view of almost the entire city from the University of Oregon Health Sciences Center high on the west hills. The big excitement of the day came during our stop at the Mekongjtorket on east 39th just off Broadway where many Asian refugees shop. Eleanor and I were standing by" as Bouapeth gathered rice noodles and other Asian foods that the Thongdy family enjoys. Suddenly delighted squeeling shook the entire establishment. Bouapeth and a young woman she knew in a refugee camp in Thailand had most unexpectedly found one another. They were both so full of joy because they never expected to see one another again. This woman, her husband and their son live in Portland. She is especially fond of Mrs. Thongdy and asked that Bouapeth 's mother telephone her. So when we got home Friday night this message was delivered, and on Saturday morning Sna jit called and had a long visit with this friend who relayed some news concerning Asian friends and family. Many folks enjoyed an unusual musical treat at the United Methodist Church in Heppner last Saturday and Sunday. The large, proficient Bell Choir from the Hillsboro United Methodist Church were weekend guests and presented great concerts here. They have a fine set of bells which cover a full five octaves. These unusual musicians are well trained and professionally directed. The Rev. and Mrs. Sheridan each performed briefly with the bellringers. Linda took a place in the group on Saturday evening, and Mike showed some of his skill on Sunday morning. I finally got some replacement parts for my aging lawnmower and soon I expect to be getting my small homestead in better shape. The beautiful yard which surrounds the home of Johnny, Linda, and J.J. Shaw is inspirational, but I know I can never hope to achieve the neat, attractive, award-winning type yard they have. Homemakers day elated By BIRDINE TT'LLIS Morrow Co.
