v ern Cook makes Heppner stop What is 4-H?
Vern Cook
Vem Cook, Democrat
candidate for state senator
District 28, made a campaign
stop in Heppner last Thursday.
Cook, 74, from the Troutdale
area, is originally from Kansas,
where his family had a wheat
farm. The family moved to
Colorado where they had a cattle
ranch, but were driven out
because o f drought and the dust
bowl
during
the
Great
Depression era. He said that the
dust was so bad, he remembers
his mother placing wet blankets
over the doors to keep the dust
out and tumbleweeds piled up
against the buildings as high as
the structures themselves. He
also recalls his father packing a
burner to bum the thorns off
thistles. The cattle were so
hungry they followed behind
him, eating the thistles. In 1937
they moved to Oregon, where his
father worked as a sharecropper,
raising blackberries.
Cook graduated from Gresham
Union High School in 1943,
received a bachelor of arts degree
from Reed College in 1948 and a
law degree from the University
of Oregon Law School in 1952.
At law school he met Robert

Thanks to you and the tourna­

The bathrooms were clean, food

all the details perfect (shirts, pro­

It was great to be welcomed
into every store by the colorful fli­
ers. I really enjoyed the museum,
the bookstore, Country Rose and
the restaurants.
You should be proud of the way
Heppner treats visitors.
Thanks again for a terrific two

to participate in the Little League

a great place. My wife and I also
agree that your town shows a lot
o f class. The improvements that
have been made to the downtown
and your municipal swimming pool
bespeak a fundam ental civic
pride. Everyone we met in town
was cordial, friendly and helpful.
Although many of the smaller
Eastern Oregon towns are expe­
riencing difficulties, it is obvious
that your city has battled those
problems and is succeeding. Con­
gratulations and thanks to all who
made the tournament a success.
