Around About
By Justine Weatherford
Most of uk wore so deliKhtcd with the unseasonably, balmy,
springlike weather of last week; however, we wonder If we
may now have to grit our teeth and expect some usual, cold,
winterlike day for awhile now.
You who were in lleppner on Wednesday, Jan. 12, may
have been startled to see the American flags flying In the
brackets around the business sector. The Information I have
been given is that the lleppner American Legion Post
decided to make the effort of putting them out In honor of
Oregon's former governor Tom McCall, The Legionnaires
were not told to do this-they Just wanted to do It. Wasn't that
nice?
Last Tuesday, Sheridan Tarnasky, R.N., the administrator
and staff Supervisor of Tri-Oounty Home Health Agency,
which covers Gilliam, Morrow and Wheeler counties, gave
an excellent talk about this most helpful medicare-certified
"institution without walls" to the Chamber of Commerce.
Sheridan, who is a third generation country girl, seems
very rapable and was very professional In her presentation
of the who. what and how facts about the home health care.
She gave out folders that spell out the details about the
agency and list the nine staff members who work with her
throughout the three counties.
Some Morrow folks are delighted to learn that Dr. Richard
Carpenter, his wife Kristine (Smith) and their two children
are now in Hermiston where he has opened an office for the
practice of orthopedic medicine and has joined the staff of
Consolidated Good Shepherd Hospital. The Carpenters left
lleppner about five years ago, and he has spent four years at
Loma Linda University in California taking specialty
training in orthopedic fracture surgery.
Iast Thursday I really enjoyed the evening at lleppner
High School viewing the three plays presented by the drama
class. The again, too-poor attendance distressed me. I
understand that dramatic productions are not as exciting to
most of this community, or to most other communities, as
action-filled athletic contests. When my sons participated in
school athletics, 1 attended games and when I taught, I
supported school teams with my presence. Now I get a bigger
lift out of watching young people growing in their
understanding of drama, in their skills in acting, producing
and managing school productions.
One small criticism I overheard from a family group
sitting very close to me was that last week's program was too
long, that the three plays ran too late for younger children.
So the careful parents left with their children after the first
two plays, which ended about 9 p.m. The complete program
wasn't finished until close to 10:30 p.m. If drama perform
ances could be scheduled on other than weeknighta, when
children must appear prompt and alert in their classes the
next day, then the late hour would be more acceptable.
Perhups you have been hearing or reading about the
annual Chamber of Commerce First Citizen Banquets being
held In nearby cities, last week this newspaper contained a
form which asked you to indicate your own choice for a
woman and a man whom you think would be most worthy of
being named the first citizens of Morrow County for 1982. The
persons you should name are to be persons whose freewill,
voluntary service to their fellow citizens, made a significant
difference in community life. These persons could be
working at a paying job but would be honored not because
of their employment, but for the unpaid hours they have
given. The final decision about the choice of the two first
citizens will rest with the Honors and Awards Committee of
the Chamter of Commerce. So far few names have been
submitted by the public.
The committee working on preparations for the First
Citizen Banquet is pleased to announce that Ron Daniels, the
president of Blue Mountain Community College, who is very
well known throughout this county, will be the evening's
speaker. There will be special musical entertainment, and
many very nice doorprizes, donated by area merchants, will
be given out that night. So plan ahead to take yourself and
your sweetheart to that big Valentine's night event, which is
less than one month away.
There is something important we must all do before
Valentine's Day. You have been reminded several times
lately that your checks for the Morrow County history book
should be sent to county historical society officers right
away. The deadline for getting in your money and your
articles about your family is soon.
I hope most of you have seen dthe copies of the Gilliam
County history book. It holds many very interesting family
stories and pictures. Stories of the schools, churches, lodges
and businesses are included, too. People who worked with
that project have told me that many families kept putting off
their writing and the sending in of their book -order checks.
Then after the books were published and folks saw how nice
and how interesting they are many families said to the
committee "Why didn't you make us get our stories and
orders in?" Many families were really sorry that they had
missed being included in that book, Let's not have this
happen here. Let's all get busy right away and mail our
money and our family blui it to either Jean Nelson or Ruth
McCate by February 1.

lone Garden Club hears report on roses BMCC announces honor students
Delpha Jones of Lexington
told the lone Garden Club
about the "Origin and Culture
of Roses" at a monthly meet
ing which was held at the
home of Joyce Buchanan on
January 12. Members an
swered to roll call by naming
their favorite type of rose.
Many beautiful pictures of
roses were seen, said a
spokesperson.
Mrs. Jones told the group
that early roses were of a bush
variety with a single bloom
and were found in Europe. In
the 1700s, she said, single
blossom roses were found In
China. Hybridization by na
ture and man has improved
the strains and now there are
many varieties, including tea
roses, floribundas, grandi
flora, polyanthus, miniatures
and climbers.
She also told the club mem
bers "to study their roses'
personality" to learn where
roses should be planted to get
the moRt for the time and
effort involved. She also cau
tioned them on the use of
fertilizers, as it is easy to
"burn" roses during hot
weather. Be sure to follow
directions on the container
carefully, she said.
During the business meet
ing, plans were discussed for
the plant sale, the District No.
10 spring meeting, to be hosted
by the lone club, and writing
the history of the club for the
Morrow County History Book.
On the second Wednesday In
February, the club will honor
those who had received Yard
of the Month awards last year.
Since the weather was bad,
the observance of the Twelfth
Night burning of the greens
was held at the grade school.
Also, at this time, awards
were presented to children
who had won the Conservation
Poster Contest, the spokes
person said.
Gooseberry Livestock
4-H Club meets
By NANCE WRIGHT
The Gooseberry Livestock
4-H club held a meeting at the
4 H Extension office on Jan
uary 10 at 7 p.m.
The president appointed a
committee of three members
to purchase a rack, pitchfork,
and wheelbarrow for club use
for cleanup at the fair.
The club chose club colors of
silver and blue. Members also
watched slides on swine, beef
and sheep, and then judged
them.
Thirty-one Blue Mountain
Community College students,
two from Heppner, received a
perfect 4.0 grade point aver
age during fall term which
reflects a straight A report in
all courses taken by the stu
dent. A total of 302 students have
earned a place either on the
BMCC honor roll or dean's list
based on their high grades.
Students receiving a 3.5 or
better are placed on the col
lege honor roll and those with
a 3.0 to 3.5 earn a place on the
dean's list.
To earn a spot in either list,
a student must be carrying a
full-time load of classes which
translates to 12 graded credit
hours. Students may not have
received an F in any class to
be so honored nor does a pass
grade count in the 12 graded
hours necessary to be included
on either list.
In addition to the straight A
students, another 119, eight
from local areas, are listed on
the fall term honor roll. Stu
dents on the dean's list num
bered 157. Of that number,
five of the students were from
local areas.
The following local students
were named to the honor roll:
Nancy Brownfield - 4.0, Patri
cia Campbell - 4.0, Lorri Day,
Gordon Munck, Lorrie Smith,
Ruth Sweeney and Herman
Winter, all of Heppner; Ralph
Morter of lone; and Todd
Harrison and Susan Wright,
both of Lexington.
These local students' names
were placed on the dean's list:
Tony Currin, Barbara Devine,
Nancy Miller and D. JoJean
Stevens, all of Heppner; and
John Smith of Lexington.
