Timmermann, vice-chairman of U.S. Wheat Associates, is a past chairman of the wheat commis sion, a past president of the OWGL, and a past winner of the state conservation award. The Portland Chamber of Commerce “ Voice of the In dustry” award went to Mike For rester, editor of the Capital Press, a regional farm weekly. For rester’s family owns several Nor thwest newspapers. The award was presented by Kay Shilder of the Agri-Business Council. The People’s Choice award in the OWGL art show went to Lin da Bisnett, Pendleton, for her wheat arrangements. The award was announced by Holly Weimar, chair of the OWGL Public Relations and Education Committee. Mike Thome, director of the Port of Portland and a Pendleton wheat farmer, was master of ceremonies for the banquet. He said grain trade created the Port of Portland and today accounts for 63 percent of the port’s tonnage. Thome called the port ” A world-class gateway to world markets.” He said the port has had a profitable, growing year. Thome expects more growth as the port “ becomes a transporta tion center for inter-modalism.” A deeper channel is needed in the Columbia River as bigger cargo ships are built, Thome said. “ The Port of Portland is the fastest-growing air and marine facility in the West,” Thome said. ing in medicine and health services. “ The booklet grew out of NEOAHEC’s board of directors being very committed to “ grow ing our own” health care people in the region,” said Sandy Ryman, NEOAHEC executive director. “ Basically, what we’ve learned is that people who prac tice health care in rural areas are from rural areas,” said Ryman. “ The ones who will most likely be satisfied working in this en vironment are the ones who come from rural areas.” NEOAHEC, a private, non profit organization, was formed in 1991 to attract and retain health professionals in northeast Oregon. NEOAHEC works in partnership with Oregn Health Sciences University to develop education and training oppor tunities for students in medicine and other health professions through residencies and continu ing education programs in Mor row, Baker, Gilliam, Grant, M alheur, U m atilla, Union, Wallowa and Wheeler counties. The AHEC program, which will eventually cover each region of the state, has been a university priority since Dr. Peter Kohler became OHSU’s president in 1988. The booklet combines informa tion that was previously available only from several different sources. It was prepared by Oregon Career Information System at the University of Oregon. Sponsors of the project include Blue Mountain Community Col lege, Eastern Oregon State Col lege, Treasure Valley Commun- tiy College and Oregon Health Sciences University. Copies of the booklet are available from NEOAHEC at $3 apiece, plus $1.50 per copy for postage and handling. Reference copies will also be available at local libraries.
