Great Decisions begins March 2
The question, "How can the
U.S. chart its course in the
world without the participation
of informed citizens?" has serv­
ed as the stimulus for millions
of Americans to meet in Great
Decisions study groups since
1918. The study groups are for
individuals who believe that "it
takes more than the evening
news to understand our chang­
ing world," and who desire to
become informed, to become
involved and to understand
how world events affect their
daily lives, said a spokesper­
son. Sponsored by the Foreign
Policy Association, Great Deci­
sions is the nation's oldest and
largest nonpartisan public
education program of its kind.
On Thursday, March 2 at 7
p.m. people interested in more
information about the program
are invited to meet at Twice
upon a Time, the bookstore
next to Heppner City Hall. At
that meeting, briefing books
will be available, and a
schedule for the eight discus­
sions will be planned.
The briefing book, which
costs $11, contains articles that
analyze eight topics of interest
to Americans. Each article pro­
vides background, policy op­
tions for the U.S., recommend­
ed readings, discussion ques­
tions, illustrations and maps.
Each article also includes an
opinion ballot, which becomes
part of the "National Opinion
Ballot Report" presented to the
White House, the departments
of state and defense, members
of Congress, and the national
media.
Great Decisions topics this
year are "R ussia and Its
N eighbors
(U .S.
policy
choices)", "Nuclear Prolifera­
tion (Can it be capped?)"
"United Nations at 50 (reach­
ing out or overreaching?)"
"Middle East (lasting steps to
peace?)", "Global Finance
(trade and capital influx?)",
"C hina", "Taiw an", "Hong
Kong (greater China challen­
ge)", "Immigration (an end to
open doors?)", and "Demo­
cratization (defining U .S.
goals)".
Anyone with questions about
the meeting may call Jane
Rawlins 676-9435 or Dan or
Doris Brosnan 676-5382.
Wheatland Pomona Grange meets
By D e lp h a Jones
Wheatland Pomona Grange
met recently at the Lexington
Grange Hall for the regular
meeting with master Mike
Medlock in the chair. Following
the opening the Grange was
lowered to the 4th degree to
conduct the business of the
day.
Medlock reported that he and
his wife Aloha, had recently at­
tended an officers meeting at
Junction City. They said that
Larry Campbell, former
speaker of the House, gave a
fine report. Many people don't
realize that grangers work on
many projects, both locally and
state wide, that are helpful in
many ways. The resolutions
that begin at the local level are
passed on Pomona level and
are sent to the committees that
can work on them.
The ag chairman gave a short
report, and discussed the
rainfall.
The G.W.A reported that
Verla Larson, Dist. 3 G.W.A
chairman, would like a con­
ference in March and Spray
Grange issued an invitation to
meet there. The invitation was
accepted by the body at a date
which will be announced later.
The youth report was in­
teresting. Plans include a Junior
Grange in the Spray area,
which will include youth from
five through 13. At the present
time they have 26 youth in­
terested. This group play is an
important part at the session in
June, with floor work and ac­
tivities they are interested in.
Grange reports were most in­
teresting. Spray had a dinner
for all veterans in that area,
gave Christmas boxes to the
single people in their area and
assisted with the forming of the
Junior Grange.
Willows held their annual
turkey dinner and bazaar and
an installation of officers at
their hall.
Lexington Grange had a
Christm as m eeting and
reported that they gave articles
to the Ron McDonald House.
They have a G.W .A club
organized with a meeting soon.
Virginia Peck is the chairman of
the group and Kathy Clark,
secretary/treasure.
Greenfield holds card parties
once a week and had a nice in­
stallation of officers. A commit­
tee was appointed to make a
portable display advertizing the
Grange so that it may be taken
to the fairs in the area. Ap­
pointed were Aloha Medlock,
Cherilyn Smouse, Willard
French and Eulanna Vaughn.
Dinner was served by the Lex­
ington Grange ladies. A cake
walk was held followed by
Dave Pranger, the Morrow
County Weed Supervisor,
showed slides and told of the
noxious weeds in the area and
ways to control them. Jerry
George and his wife from
Umatilla County were in­
troduced. George is the chair­
man of the state ag committee
and master of Umatilla Coun­
ty Pomona. He announced that
State Grange will be held at
Clatskanie near Astoria in June.
He also spoke some about the
imports to other countries,
pirces etc. Roll call was taken
with the following count:
Greenfield, Willows, Cold
Springs all two, Spray four and
Lexington eight. A motion was -
passed that the group discon­
tinue the $50 prize for the most
attedance from any Grange at x
Pomona during the year. The
meeting was adjourned in the
4th degree.
