AAodge Coppock and Jamw Thomson Jr. at th timt of their
marriage in 1933.
Saturday afternoon, July 2, in the Heppner Elks Lodge, a
beautifully organized reception in celebration of the fiftieth
wedding anniversary of Madge and Jim Thomson was
arranged for them by their three children and families.
Much planning and preparation was done by daughter
Meredith and her husband, Tom Walters, who came from
Santa Maria, Calif., with three of their four sons. Their older
son Russell was in Alliance, Nebraska, and was unable to
attend with his brothers Duane, Ammon and Aaron.
Daughter Bernice Thomson came from Tigard to help with
the arrangements along with her brother, Bruce, and his
wife, Phyllis, and their daughter, Stacey, and son, Jeffrey,
from Aloha.
The colors featured at a the reception were gold and red
and green which had been also used at the 1933 Christmas
Eve Wedding conducted by Rev. Joel Benton of the Heppner
Church of Christ in the borne of Jim's parents, the home that
Madge and Jim occupy today. The original Gazette-Times
report tells that, "The bride wore a tiptoe length blue crepe
frock and carried tiny red rosebuds."
The 1933 wedding was very nice, but rather small. Madge
says "It was depression style." Many times the small
number who were with them then gathered to wish them well
fifty years later. Three persons who were with Madge and
Jm on both occasions were Jim's sisters Louise and Winifred
and long-time family friend Jeanette Turner Huddleston,
who had played the piano at the 1933 rites.
At the Saturday reception the beautiful anniversary cake
was surrounded by lovely fresh red and gold roses. It was
served to the guests by Betty Pfeiffer, Lib Daggett and
Alberta Parker.
That evening, the immediate family and many of the
out-of-town guests were hosted at a dinner in the Thomson
home.
Among the gifts presented to Madge and Jim was an
unusually attractive quilted family tree which the Thoma
sons have hung on their livingroom wall. Madge is putting
together a hand-made memory book, also presented by their
children, containing the cards, notes and pictures related to
the golden anniversary.
Family members who came from out of town included
Louise and Merle Becket from Creswell ; Ted Thomson from
the Miami, Florida area; Beatrice Bennett of Beaverton; ,
Shirley and Norman Lee ten and sons Brian and Rod from
Vancouver, Wash.; and Joy and Gilbert Reed of Walnut
Creek, Calif.
The large group of Heppner friends was joined by special
friends from other towns (many were former residents here)
in congratulating the Thomasons, whose actual anniversary
will arrive on Dec. 24, but who agreed to have a summertime
celebration when traveling is so much more convenient:
Jeanette Huddleston came from Boise, Idaho and Fern and
John Turner came from Baker. Guests from Washington
state included Margaret and Reno Daoro, Puyallup; Mary
and Bob Guild, Snohomish; Theresa and Dean Naffziger,
White Salmon; and Mimriam McDonald from Selah. Those
coming from Oregon towns were Ruby and Bill Harmon,
Eugene; Gwen and Steve Thompson, Wilsonville; Janet
Bliss, Aloha; Alberta and Vawter Parker, Hood River;
Crocket and Juanita Sprouls, Condon; and Clytie and Walter
Mackey, Thelma Gentry and Emma Staggs, all from
Pendleton.

2 Heppner businesses
staying open late
By JUSTINE
WEATHERFORD
The summertime forest
service and oil exploration
projects being carried on cur
rently in south Morrow County
require long working days and
make it difficult for those
employed on them to get to
Heppner to shop before busi
nesses close.
Some of these workers have
requested longer business
hours on one night each week.
Last week, two Heppner busi
nesses agreed to stay open
until at least 10 p.m. on
Wednesdays from now until
further notice. Those who
want to shop after the usual
closing hours will find Central
Market and the Heppner
Laundromat ready to help
them Wednesday nights.

closure, evaluation and hiring

In other matters the board is
to elect officers and take a
