SIX- Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, February 17, 1993 6th grade letters from page four To the Editor: Are the Trail Blazers being good role models for the youth of Oregon? In my opinion, I don’t think so. I think that it is a terri ble phenomenon that they would do such a thing. I have always been a big Trail Blazer fan. I always participate in the reading program. I have posters in my bedroom, I watch their games and cheer them on. I had considered them to be role models until they were involved with the sex scandal in Salt Lake City. I think the players involved in this incident should be suspend ed for three games. Then I think they should have to make a public apology. Sincerely, ____ (s) Kathleen Greenup To the Editor: The contaminated food at Jack in the Box is a tragic story, many people have become very sick, and some have died from this bacteria, and some are lying on their death beds. I think laws should be more strict from when the cow is but chered to when to meat is cooked. The governm ent should become more active and do something about it fast. Jack in the Box also offered to pay for medical expences which I think wa» very kind of them. Hopefully this type of thing will never happen again. Stricter laws would make sure it doesn’t. By, _________ (s) Angela Munkers To the Editor: I think that the Arthur Ashe’s death from AIDS is really sad but what really makes me mad is that the media was snooping into his Aids problem. I think that the media is way to snoopy and that they go into peoples problems too much. I think that sometimes the media should be inquisitive, but not about something that is so private. I hope that you can print this in your newspaper. Sincerely, __________ (s) Shane Matheny To the Editor: Picking an attorney general has never been so hard. Why? Because the last two people that have been picked have broken the law. Why didn't they figure that out before they were chosen? I think that if you’re in trouble with the law then you shouldn’t even qualify for positions of such power not to mention a trial don’t you agree? ____________ (s) Matt Berretta To the Editor: I am writing to you about Strike Force. There were three men who do karate and several stunts. They came to our school to show us a good time and to talk about sex, making choices doing the best we can. We all liked the show and the talk they gave us. We hope they can come back again sometime this year. If so, I would encourage parents to attend. Sincerely, ____________(s) Danny Coiner To the Editor: I think the Media is way too snoopy. In my opinion I think the media should stay out of people's personal lives. For instance, I think Arthur Ashe shouldn't have been made to go public and tell everybody he had AIDs. The media should have just let Arthur Ashe keep it between him, his family and his doctor. But sometimes it is important for the media to find out things like the Pack wood issue. But otherwise they should stay out of people’s personal lives. Sincerely ________________ Jaci Hughes To the Editor: I am a sixth grader in Heppner and we are studying the Oregon Trail. I think the Oregon Trail is an interesting thing. This year is the Oregon Trail’s 150th anniver sary. It's a good idea to have a new wagon train to travel west the Oregon Trail this year. I think this will encourage peo ple to learn about the Oregon Trail and the people's way of liv ing back then. Join in the celebration at Cecil in August and visit museums around the state. Sincerely, ___________ (s) Bobbie Rankin To the Editor: I am a 6th grader from Hep- penr Middle School. I have no problem with loggers, but when they clear cut big thickets where elk are it’s a problem. The pro blem is when they clear cut all of the elk are left in the open and poachers shoot them and get away with it. It also affects peo ple when they’re trying to hunt because there’s nothing to hide behind. After the loggers are done log ging they put it in big piles and leave it and I don’t like it and most other people don’t either. We all need to clean up after ourselves. Sincerely, ___________ (s) Jared Eckman To the Editor: I’m a sixth grader at Heppner Middle School and I think gays should be allowed in the military because they’re human like everyone else, and I don’t think its anybody elses business who they date. And I don’t think its the gays are the problem. I think it’s the heterosexuals that are against them that are the problem and I completely disagree with the OCA and there ballot measure 9 last November after they’re in the service to make peace not to create problems. Sincerley, _________ (s) Brooke Sweeney To the Editor: I am a sixth grader at Heppner Elemtary School. My friends and I were bored this summer. We needed something to do. The pool in lone is too small for us and the lone kids. So. instead of painting the police cars, why didn’t we put that money toward the pool? I'm not complaining, but more things could be done. I’d like everybody to support the community efforts to raise money for the pool. Sincerely, ____________ (s) Julie Watkins To the Editor: I am writing to you about Heppner’s problem with no swimming pool. The kids have to go to the dam to swim. There are rocks up there and you cut your feet on them. All I’m saying is we need a pool and we need it this summer. Sincerely, ___________ (s) Brian Knowles To the Editor: I’m a sixth grade student at Heppner Middle School. I like the loggers but I hate the mess. I almost grew up in the mountains and I’ve seen it myself. The clear cuts are need ed some of the time but the mess isn’t. I mean the air filters and hoses and stuff. The Forest Ser vice won’t make the loggers clean up. But they’re all for kicking the cows off the waters and streams. So stop nagging the ranchers and get on the problem, loggers, not all loggers, but some of them. Please start cleaning up for the real needs like the deer, elks, fish and other wild game. Sincerely, ___________ (s) Tony Greenup To the Editor: This year I went to a Trail Blazer game. I really think they are neat. I thought that the Magic Johnson speech would keep everyone from doing all that stuff. The Trail Blazers are role models for all kinds of kids. Then they go out and set a bad exam ple for kids like me. I am really disappointed about this. I thought they would get a better example than this. I really hope that this won’t encourage kids to do what they did. They are always en couraging us not to do drugs, stay in school and read. I wish they could have acted like responsible adults. Sincerely, ______________(s) Sarah Greif To the Editor: I am disappointed in the Trail Blazers this year and I know a lot of people who feel the same. Not only have they been losing their games, but they have also been acting irresponsible. For them to act as good role models they should act responsible on and off the court. I also think they owe the whole state of Oregon an apology for the scandal in Salt Lake City. I am a Blazer fan but I think they have let the young people of Oregon down. Sincerely. ___________ (s) Kristi Worden < To the Editor: Would you please print this ar ticle in your newspaper. "Ladies and Gentlemen, would you all remember the Oregon Trail? It’s that time of year we celebrate it because with it the United States expanded. Heppner was founded and we were bom. Yes, probably without it we would not be here today. What is the Oregon Trail, might you ask? It is a long, dus ty road that starts at In dependence, Missouri and ends at the Columbia River, the Snake River and Oregon City. Many smaller but well used trails break off the Oregon Trail. The Barlow Trail was used instead of loading wagons on rafts and floating them down the Columbia River. So let’s remember the Oregon Trail as part of our heritage that it got us the homes we live in today. For further information about the trail, visit the Morrow County Museum, the Oregon Trail Inter pretive Center in Baker City, and the celebration in August at Cecil. By _______________(s) lan Sweek To the Editor: I’m getting tired of the Spotted Owl. The spotted owl has caus ed thousands of logging industries to shut down. I know that loggers over cut the trees they shouldn’t do that. They also shouldn’t clear cut. Clear cuts are stupid. They should leave those trees for the wild life. I think that loggers should on ly log what needs to be logged. There must be a way for the animals and the loggers to live in this world together. Sincerley, _____________ (s) Dusty Rollis To the Editor: I think that we need to get a new pool that’s indoor because our old one obviously isn’t ade quate, it will just keep on break ing and costing more money for the city to pay for repairs. More people would like to have a pool that they can have for years and swim all year round. Then when it’s so hot out you'll have a pool to go swim in. A lounge with TV and vending machine for the parents to go in when their kids are swimming would also be great but that’s what I would recommend. Sincerely, ___________ (s) Jeff Waterland To the Editor: I think the Trail Blazers are really messed up. They are a bunch of creeps. They are not very good role models to the kids in Oregon. They have done the reading program for us, and then let us down with their actions. It is a shame to all the parents too. They are doing things bad both on the court and off. Trail Blazers, ask yourself: "Am I a good role model?" I don’t think the answer will be "y es" for many of the players. So the Trail Blazers need to think about what they did. But don’t come crying to me or anybody else. Right now, I don’t respect you. Sincerely, ________ (s) Derek Gunderson To the Editor: In a local Jack in the Box, a lit tle boy of two years old died of food poisoning. Other people who ate there are in critical con dition. Why? Because of carelessness. A truck of con taminated hamburger was ship ped to Seattle to a Jack in the Box. There the meat was cooked and sold. I think people should be more careful. I mean when the coun try hears about a food poisoning at a fast food restaurant that has always been safe, it can really make people angry. I am also disappointed about how they pro cess meat. They should have a clean area to work in. I really hope this does not happen again. Please be more careful when pro cessing meat or cooking. I en courage you to write your con gressmen for stricter regulations. Sincerely, ____________ (s) Brooke Boyer To the Editor: I’m a sixth grader from Hepp ner Middle School I think that Jack in the Box should be put out of business because people have died because of contamination. I think that two families had to suf fer because their child died of contamination, and three have suffered and are still in the hospital. I really think that Jack in the Box should close because now families have to suffer. Sincerely, ____________ (s) Mary Morris To the Editor: Is the media too snoopy? In my opinion, they are. For example they go out and intrude into Ar thur Ashe’s personal life when he was trying to keep his personal life to himself, his family and his doctors. I think it is important for the media to get news such as Somalia and the Packwood issue, but they should not intrude into people’s personal lives. Now that I have spoken my opinion, I hope people and the media stop being so snoopy.
