Appalled
To the editor and Judge Don
ald McElligott:
As a concerned citizen of
Morrow County, I was appal
led by the operation of your
Road Department in the re
pair of a culvert on Wilson
Road September 21.
Because of their careless
ness and unconcern for the
public, telephone service east
of that point was disrupted for
a period of about eight hours.
Thank God there apparently
was no emergency need for
the phone.
This was not an emergency
repair to Wilson Road; there
was plenty of time to check
with the phone company to
determine where the cable
was located. Though. I must
add. Wilson Road should be an
"emergency."
I checked with the phone
Committee wants your help
To the editor:
The Oregon Fish and Wild
life Commission, without most
of us being aware, have been
issuing cow elk hunting per
mits very late in the winter
and early spring when cow elk
are calving or carrying very
mature fetuses. A committee
has been formed and is trying
to put a stop to these late cow
elk hunts. We feel elk are a
great national resource that
belongs to all of us. Oregon
Fish and Wildlife admit that
they encourage killing preg
nant cows to get a bonus two
dead elk for one shot.
Wedding Announcement
Anderson Daly
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Daly of Heppner and Mr. and Mrs.
George Anderson of Blue River invite all friends and
relatives to the wedding of their children. JoLynn and Galen,

Pendleton.
A reception will follow at the Tapadera Inn and Restaurant
banquet room.
Recreation Report
For hunters who plan to
camp out in local forests, the
following Recreation Report,
provided by the Umatilla Na
tional Forest office in Pendle
ton, might be helpful.
In the Heppner Ranger Dis
trict. Bull Prairie Lake
Campground is open and there
is a $4 per night fee if the
water is on. Fairview Camp
ground is also open with no
nightly fee. Driving could be
hazardous due to frost poc
kets. Logging traffic is heavy
on Willow Creek and Sperry
Springs roads. Both Bull
Prairie and Penland Lake are
open for fishing. In spite of the
rain, the grass is very dry and
the potential for campfires to
get away is high. Please make
sure your campfires are out.
Remember, you should
always carry a shovel and an
axe. and pipage be sure top
pack your garbage home.
In the Ukiah Ranger Dis
trict. Frazier, Lane, and Bear
Wallow campgrounds are
open but will be closing No
vember 30. There are no
nightly fees for these camp
grounds and there are no
garbage or water services.

company - they say ( and I
quote). "We were not contac
ted by the Road Department."
I am surprised that the sign
which reads "Warning,
underground cable before
digging, trenching, or pushing
pipe in this vicinity, call the
telephone company," was not
destroyed. It was within four
feet of where they were dig
Ring. Can their excuse be that
they can't read? Or was this
just total lack of concern for
the general public - those
people who pay their wages?
The latter would appear to me
to be the truth. ,
A concerned taxpayer,
Bruce O. Nicholes
Boardman
P S. Just how much did this
little repair cost us taxpay
ers? We are proposing that all
cow elk hunting be s'opped
between December 15 and
August 1 of each year to give
the young calves a chance.
We are not trying to stop all
cow elk hunting. We only want
it stopped when they are
calving. An initiative petition
drive is being conducted and
your help is needed. Any
interested persons may write:
Preserve the Elk. P.O. Box
435. Seaside. Oregon 97138.
Sincerely,
Ron Neva, Chairman
Meadows. Though the road is
drivable its entire length,
please drive with caution. F.S.
Road No. 5425 is also under
construction and is considered
rough. Cable Creek trail is
maintained and in good condi
tion. No motorized vehicles
are allowed on Cable Creek.
All other trails are open and in
good condition. The fire dan
ger is moderate. Class A and
fishing is considered fair.
Hunting is expected to be fair
for deer with the best hunting
at the lower elevations.
There are many road clo
sure areas on the Ukiah Ran
ger District. Recreationists
and hunters are encouraged to
stop and see these road clo
sure signs before entering the
road closure area. Road clo
sure signs can be found at the
forest boundary on the Ukiah
Granite Road, on Forest Ser
vice Road 54 just south of the
intersection with 5440. and at
the intersection of the Western
Route Road (F.S. Road No.
53) and Wolf Spring Road
(F.S. Road 5305). Free maps
are available showing these

Caution
To the editor:
With hunting season coming
upon us. we would like to
make a plea to the many
hunters, fishermen and sight
seers who will be traveling
Basey and Upper Rhea Creek
roads.
Being residents of that area,
and concerned parents, we
would like to make people
aware of the hazardous road
conditions. There is a great
deal of overgrowth on the
sides of the road alleviating
turnout space for oncoming
vehicles and also hampering
visibility. The road is, also
very narrow in places, barely
allowing two vehicles to pass.
Many of us have seen vehicles
traveling these roads at a high
rate of speed. Having children
and livestock this is
quite a concern to us.
Until the road conditions are
improved, we would appreci
ate everyone's courtesy and
caution in traveling these
