Locally there are many people, both young and old, who get into
the Halloween spirit of things (pardon the pun). Parents now pull
out all the stops and spend countless hours creating a haunted
house for spooky entertainment. This is a great contrast to the
days when kids just ran around looking for mischievous ways to
celebrate the occasion.'
Some homeowners also go to great lengths to provide a
memorable experience for tnck or treaters. If there were a contest
to determine who has the best witch’s cackle, no doubt Karen
Holland would receive first prize.
Donning a witch’s costume or celebrating Halloween is conceived
by some folks as a form of devil or cult worship. But most people,
including store employees, are only having fun just to make people
laugh.
Fortunately our local area is mimmumly impacted by vandalism
that takes place in other areas not just at Halloween but throughout
the year. Here trick or treaters can enjoy their sweet treats without
parents having to worry about contamination.
It’s unfortunate that our government can't operate with such fair
mindedness. And whether it's campaign finance reform or
whatever, no one seems to want to clean up their act. It would be
over-simplistic to just limit campaign spending and have equal
television coverage.
Despite the millions of acres set aside as wilderness areas
eliminating any usage to generate, tax dollars, the President has
created the American Heritage Rivers Program by executive order.
Under this program, 10 river systems will initially be designated
and others may be included. The Willamette River is on the
nomination list and the already overregulated Columbia River
system is rumored to be next. Therefore without notification,
private property could be rezoned and restricted as to use which
affects the value. Ballot measure 56 on the November 1998
election would simply require that owners be notified of such
changes.
But confiscation of private property without
compensation smacks of an extension of the endangered species
act utilizing government power.
And take the land use laws imposed in Oregon. Of the 16 million
acres zoned "exclusive farm use", less than two million acres are
prime farm land and less than five million acres are cultivated farm
land, including that which is marginal. Therefore these regulations
create density within urban growth boundaries regardless of soil
productivity. Meanwhile nonprofitable land cannot be utilized for
residentual or commercial uses. City density overloads utility
systems, creates heavy traffic and encourages building on unstable
hillsides.
Oregon's population growth continues to spiral. However, now
that we have put the Halloween ghosts to bed, it's time to
contemplate Thanksgiving. It's the big turkey day when we stuff
ourselves, watch football and enjoy the company o f family and
friends.

The lone Cardinals Middle
School lost to the Condon
Middle School football team in a
battle of size and wits.
Condon had some giants on
their team. Since Condon was
visiting they got to call the coin
in the air. TTicy didn't get the call
right so lone got to receive the
ball. Condon had many sneaky
plays that they used when they
were kicking off. One of their
trick plays was they went into a
huddle. Todd Schaffer raised his
hand and when the referee blew
the whistle, they came out of the
huddle to kick the ball. Billy
Gates got that kickoff for the
cards. Colin McElligott received
the ball and ran for over 15
yards. But lone couldn't get their
offense to move the ball
anywhere, so they were forced to
punt the ball. That enabled
Condon to score their first
touchdown.
lone then got the ball and once
again tried to get a touchdown
but were unable to get it and
were put on defense again.
Condon was able to score
because of their sheer size. With
the score Condon, 16, lone, 0,

pleased.

The two point

good until the first string offense
came back in for Condon. Once
lone had scored, Condon showed
no mercy. They scored two
touchdowns before the end of the
half. Only one of the two-point

That extra point was a good field

Later in the quarter Burright

touchdown. The devils kicked a
field goal for a one-point
conversion.
The fourth quarter was another
good quarter for both teams. lone

Devils had such a lead over lone,
they didn't need to put in their
