Health district purchases wheelchair bus
Justice C o u rt
Report
Nursing home residents try out the new bus recently purchased by the medical district. The bus seats up
to eight wheelchairs, and will be used for recreational driving, getting to doctor appointments and other
needs of the nursing home, says Sheila Dahlman, medical district manager. Dalman says the bus was
purchased from state surplus for only $6,500 and has only 32,000 miles. "They will be able to go on rides
together and to attend more activities," says Dahlman of the larger bus. "It will also save us on
transportation costs because we will be able to carry more people."
Sum m er weather
With temperatures around Heppner in the 90s, a good place to eetch a breeze for residents of the Pioneer
Memorial Nursing Home was out on the patio. From left to right front row: Millie Evans, Jim Farley,
Nonie Pointer, Rose Moe, Beth Clark, Faye Ruhl and Gladys Connor. Back row left to right; Tommy
Steagall, Evelyn Warren and Bill Lowe.

H istorical Society to make
donations to towns
By Delpha Jones
The Morrow County Historical
Society met Saturday at the
M ildred Baker home in
Boardman. Minutes were read
and accepted by the secretary
Ruth McCabe.
Old business included the mon­
etary donation to each of the
towns for their yearly celebration.
The decoration for the courthouse
was for the Christmas holidays.
Barbara Bloodsworth is chair­
man.
New business was the annual
meeting scheduled for the first
Sunday in October at the Lexing­
ton Grange hall.
Mildred Baker is chairman for
the booth at the Morrow County
Fair.
Plans are being made with
Wylie Monument works to repair
and replace some of the stones in
the cemeteries. There are several
beautiful stones which have been
damaged. “If anyone is interested,
especially family members, a mon­
etary donation will be accepted,”
said a Historical Society member.
“This is an expensive project with
setting and replacing the printing
on the stones.”
A report was heard from Don
Eppenbaugh concerning the
Lewis and Clark expedition.
Those present for the meeting
were Dorris Graves, Ruth Mc­
Cabe, Jean Nelson, Don Eppen­
baugh, Mildred Baker, Kathryn
Hoskins, Barbara Bloodsworth
and Delpha Jones.
