HERMISTON HISTORY
ANGIE
TREADWELL
Registered Dietitian, SNAP-Ed Coordinator
When and why did you move to Hermiston?
I moved to this area almost 20 years ago for my first
job out of college. I didn’t think I would stay long, but
I am glad I did.
What is your favorite place to eat in Hermiston?
My favorite place to eat in Hermiston is actually at
home with my family. For going out to eat, we like
Veg Out and Kobe Hibachi Sushi; we also have a
deep appreciation for several of our local taco trucks.
What do you like to do in your spare time?
I like to spend time with my family, run (especially with
my friends), experiment with recipes and read. I have
recently taken up yoga to help counter the effects of
running and my advancing age; I am surprised by how
much I enjoy it. Thank you Lauren at Nourish Yoga!
What was the last book you read?
Currently, I am reading “Let Your Mind Run” by
Deena Kastor, an excellent book on the power of pos-
itivity that can apply to running or life in general.
What app or website do you use most often
other than Facebook or Google?
I am really into podcasts, so those apps are the ones
I utilize most. I also spend quite a bit of time on the
Food Hero website as it houses recipes developed at
OSU that I use frequently in my work.
If you could travel anywhere, where would you go?
My family and I want to travel the world! Japan is
on the schedule for 2019. Greece, Italy, Germany
and Morocco are on the list as well as Philadelphia,
Washington, D.C., Chicago and a return to New York
City, a trip we all loved. Now, we just have to figure
out the time and money thing ...
What is the funniest thing that’s happened to you?
Last winter I was running early in the morning with
my friends Sara and Crystal. It was dark and icy so
I was watching my steps very carefully, so carefully
that I ran straight into a mailbox in the middle of the
sidewalk. Funny, yes, but also painful.
What are your goals for the next 12 months?
I am working to do a better job of enjoying the moment
and not always looking toward the next thing, but ... I
do want to run another marathon and travel with my
family, combining the two is always optimal.
What is your proudest accomplishment?
I have been blessed with many wonderful experiences
in my life: at the top is becoming a mom to my three
awesome daughters. The accomplishment that is
freshest in my mind happened about two weeks ago.
I ran in the Boston Marathon in the worst weather
ever! The cold pouring rain did not let up for the
entire race, nor did the brutal headwinds. I am proud
to say that I finished the race without completely suc-
cumbing to hypothermia. Not exactly the experience
I envisioned, but I will never forget it!

25 YEARS AGO
May 4, 1993
• State police offices in
Eastern Oregon are jump-
ing into a new commu-
nity policing project that
will involve officers in
both Umatilla and Morrow
counties.
To bring communities
more fully into the “Service
Oriented Policing Project,”
several regional boards will
be established to collect cit-
izen input. Similar to com-
munity policing, the idea is
to bring police officers into
closer contact with the pub-
lic they serve.
Citizen contact will be
gathered through meetings
and individual contact with
station commanders and cit-
izen representatives on the
District Advisory Commit-
tee, which includes Randall
McMichael of Hermiston.
• Needing to raise $5,000
to attend a world-level
competition, the Hermiston
High Odyssey of the Mind
team is holding a spaghetti
feed. The event includes
a presentation that earned
them the right to attend the
competition.
Odyssey gives students
a chance to participate in
something besides sports,
said group director Cathy
Lloyd. For their perfor-
mance, the group built a
human-powered contrap-
tion. To qualify, it must
make laps around a pre-set
course and be able to travel
backwards. Lloyd said the
group has a good chance of
winning if they can make
enough money for the trip.
• The 8th Annual Greater
Hermiston Open Cribbage
Tournament, hosted by the
Eagles Lodge, was held
April 23-25. Drawing 136
participants, it included
nationally-ranked players
from as far away as New
York.
Rex Paddock of Mis-
soula, Montana, captured
the championship tro-
phy and a hefty check for
$818. Several local play-
ers did well in the “High-
Roller” event. Bill Jones
took second, followed by
Jack Haller and Jan Foster.
Jones also placed fourth in
the main event, winning a
trophy and $365.
50 YEARS AGO
May 2, 1968
• The city of Hermis-
ton budget committee met
Monday and approved a
1968-69 budget, includ-
ing general fund expendi-
tures of $346,150 — with
$132,500 being derived
from taxation. Within the 6
percent limitation, the bud-
get will not require voter
approval.
With
the
expected
increase in the city eval-
uation and using the new
requirement of stating tax
dollars per $1,000 of true
cash value, City Manager
Tom Harper said the bud-
get will cost approximately
$5.40 per $1,000 — 8 cents
greater than last year.
The budget calls for the
following major changes:
All city employees will be
eligible for a one-step pay
raise on their employment
anniversary date. The city
will pay all of the employ-
ees’ share of the Blue
Cross insurance instead of
the present $3 per month.
The volunteer fireman’s
pay has been increased
from $3 to $4 per call. And

3. Farm fencing is
no longer rationed and
quota controls on milking
machines also have been
removed. The 150,000
pressure cookers produced
in 1943 will be rationed
by county farm commit-
tees to users showing the
greatest need. Groups com-
posed of several families
who agree to use a pressure
cooker jointly will get first
consideration.

the police department will
have two clerks, reliev-
ing patrolmen the duties of
radio dispatcher and office
clerks.
• Registered voters in
Hermiston School District
6-R will cast ballots the first
Monday in May. The 1968-
69 budget is in excess of
the 6 percent limitation by
$1,063,873.56. It is esti-
mated that this tax will
equal $21.07 per $1,000
true cash value. Also,
school board position can-
didates are Mrs. Norman L.
(Margaret) Clark and Mar-
vin Lemmon.
Mrs. Clark graduated
from Yamhill-Carlton High
School and married Dr.
Clark, a dentist. They have
three children, all attend-
ing West Park. She is a
4-H leader, a room mother,
member of the election
board and school budget
committee.
Lemmon
graduated
from Hermiston in 1951
and married Pearl Miller
the same year. They
have five children, rang-
ing from second through
ninth grades. Lemmon is
employed as the petroleum
department and service
station manager at P.G.G.
He is the past president
of the Hermiston Junior

• All who sell any com-
modity or service are to
attend an informational
meeting with the War
Price and Rationing board.
Details of the war price
and rationing setup will be
explained.
It is essential that any-
one who provides services
or sells commodities attend
the meeting. This includes
operators of grocery stores,
banks, service stations, shoe
repair shops, restaurants,
funeral parlors, beauty par-
lors and many others.
• Rationing:
1. Because recapping
takes only one-sixth as
much crude rubber as a new
tire, the OPA has removed
quota restrictions on the
number of certificates that
may be issued for recapping
truck tires.
2. “Play” shoes not used
for street wear will go back
on the rationed list.

100 YEARS AGO
May 4, 1918
• L. J. Simpson, candi-
date for governor, came to
Hermiston by auto and for
a couple of hours circulated
among the people.
We had heard quite a bit
about the gentleman’s good
qualities, but we had taken
it with a grain of salt in the
belief that it was only polit-
ical buncombe let loose for
his gubernatorial aggran-
dizement. But on meet-
ing him, we could see at a
glance over the make-up of
the man that our impression
of him had been all wrong,
and we now believe the
high rating the gentleman
has received by friends here
and elsewhere is wholly
justified.
All whom he met while
here have signified their
intention of voting for him
for governor. The voters
are rapidly coming to the
belief that L.J. Simpson will
be one governor of Oregon
that will serve all the peo-
ple. (Editor’s Note: Simpson
lost the Republican nomi-
nation to incumbent James
Withycombe).
• The city council at its
Wednesday meeting, after
having numerous com-
plaints regarding reckless
driving of automobiles on
the streets of Hermiston,
instructed the city mar-
shal to see that the ordi-
nance covering the speed
of such vehicles be strictly
enforced. Also, the ordi-
nance against allowing
irrigated water to run on
the streets will be rigidly
enforced this season.
• In Red Cross news, the
third Superfluity Sale was
a great success, with $62
taken in. While the bidding
on the pig was not what was
expected, the proceeds of
the sale as a whole was very
gratifying.
