The Legislative Committee chairman, Barton Clark, gave a report concerning House Bill 3565 and Senate Bill 805, the educational act for the 21st cen tury. These require certain local governments to impose fees on exempt real property of frater nal organizations to pay frater nal organization properties' share of costs of emergency ser vices, said Clark. This would require a city, county, mu nicipal corporation, or rural fire protection district to impose a fee for emergency services, such as fire-fighting, law en forcement, and emergency medical services, on the real property of all fraternal organizations, Clark said. The Oregon State Grange urges voters to try and stop this bill, according to Clark. The chaplain's report was given and the G.W.A. Parma Grange will meet April 29, at the Spray Grange Hall. This being Grange Week, lec turer Jean Nelson gave a short history of the organization of the Grange, which was intend ed to improve the lives of Shorty Peck fair and rodeo parade grand marshal Congratulations to Shorty Peck for being named Grand Marshal of the 1995 Morrow County Fair and Oregon Trail Pro Rodeo. "We are honored to have this distinguished gentleman representing us this year," said a spokesperson for the board. The OTPR Committee would like to welcome aboard Sherree Mahoney as a new member. The Morrow County Rodeo will make some changes this year. The team roping will be two complete go rounds and will be held in slack on Sunday, at 9 a.m. The top 10 teams will compete in the performance Sunday afternoon at 1:15 p.m. Contestants will be able to enter two times and it will be a USTRC #8 roping. Un numbered ropers must contact Ken Bailey at 676-5110, or John Moyer at 676-9844 before enter ing, and they will be assigned a number. The fees are $40 per man. The rest of the events will remain the same. The last two weekends have been very successful for many area rodeo contestants. Jerry Gentry of Heppner placed third, and Judy Currin- Pederson of Hermiston placed first at the Prineville Pro Rodeo on April 7-8. Annie Hisler won the average in the senior cases alone cost BPA nearly $5,000. Airway marker lights are placed on the transmission pole structures as a warning to low flying military aircraft operating in the area. BPA is concerned about the possibility of a catastrophic aircraft accident due to the lack of sufficient air way marker lights. When van dals or thieves destroy vital safety lights or manage to put a line out of service, it's not "harm less" horseplay, said BPA. BPA has notified the Federal Aviation Administra tion, the Federal Bureau of In vestigation, Boardman Navy Security and the Morrow County Sheriff about the pro blem, and security patrols have been increased in the area. In an effort to discourage destructive and potentially dangerous vandalism infrac tions, BPA created the Crime W itness Program, an ag gressive, large scale, neighborhood watch-style category at the VGBRA Barrel Daze in Walla Walla, WA. while Kelly Currin and Janice Davis both placed in the open barrels. Lisanne Currin placed sixth in the average at the WBRA Barrel Racing Derby in Olympia, WA. over Easter weekend. There have been a lot of peo ple asking about using the new rodeo facilities, and what the rules are. Members have put together a list of information that will help answer every one's questions. Rules and regulations of the OTPR arena as approved by the OTPR Committee: The arena is open to anyone to use unless reserved. Make reservations through the fair office. It is on a first come, first serve basis. Reserved usage fees are $10 per hour up to four hours; $50 for useage over four hours, or per day; $250 for rodeo/roughstock event; light usage is $5 per hour; and stall usage is $5 per day (you clean).

The conference offered small- group workshops where at tendees sharpened their skills for group organization, effec tive lobbying, leadership and media relations. "The NAWG leadership par ticipants are strengthening skills that are necessary in to day's competitive agriculture m a rk e ts," says Emilio J. Bontempo, president, Ciba Agricultural Group. "Through the Leadership Development Program, NAWG will continue to effectively tell its story to the public." Grieb took home new skills she can put to work right away in telling the NAWG story, said a Ciba news release.

B M C C offers placement tests Vandals target BPA marker lights Vandals are repeatedly shooting out airway marker lights on the Bonneville Power Administration's Ione-Board- man 115,000-volt transmission line, according to a Bonneville Power Administration news release. The vandalism could potentially contribute to a catastrophic aircraft accident, said the release. Vandalism on this line has already cost BPA, and subsequently the rate payers, over $20,000 with at least 25 separate shooting in cidences since 1986. The Ione-Boardman trans mission line runs in a north- south direction through the middle of Morrow County. The vandalism is focused on the towers along the eastern boun dary of the naval weapons training facility, the Boardman Bombing Range. The exact times and dates vandalism oc curred are not known, but the most recent incidents were just before July 22 last year and January 26 and 27. These three Americans. Oliver Hudson Kelley is credited with formal ly establishing the Grange; in the 1850's, Kelley organized the Benton County Agriculture Society, in which neighboring farmers shared information about agricultural production, and later, the promotion of new farm implements. A short history of the Lex ington Grange was also presented. Lexington Grange #726 was organized May 27, 1929, at the Lexington school house. The Grange was assist ed in its organization by the Rhea Creek Grange, which is now part of #726. Mr. Gekeler, a state deputy, was present to organize the group. The first of ficers were: master Joe Devine, overseer Harry Dinges, lecturer Emma Peck, treasurer O.W. Cutsforth, and secretary R.B. Wilcox. The present building was erected about 1935 by mostly volunteer labor, and was dedicated August 10,1935. Some of the past masters were S.J. Devine, Harvey Miller, C.J.D. Bauman, Frank Saling, Kenneth Smouse, Nor man Nelson, Alvin Wagon- blast, Carl Marquardt, Joe Yo- com, Cecil Jones, Delpha Jones, Lyle Peck, Barbara Cutsforth, Ed Hunt, and present master Clarence Buchanan. ¡M Í ----- -------- program. "In the long-term, the Crime Witness Program should not only reduce vandalism, it should keep costs and rates down," says Robert Windus, security manager at BPA. "In 1994 alone, more than three dozen incidents were reported. Five led to arrests. Three others involving illegal dumping resulted in the mess being cleaned up at the dumpers' ex pense, not the ratepayers'. Seven other cases involving trespassing, poaching and il legal dumping on non-BPA property were referred to ap propriate law enforcement agencies. The program is already paying off." Anyone with information leading to the vandals is en couraged to call BPA's Crime W itness Hotline, 1 800 437-2744. The information could be worth up to $1,000 and witnesses' names are kept confidential.
