Tne Mill City Boy Scouts hauled some firewood to her re cently. Santiam Wins Thriller From Woodburn By Ed McCurdy Santiam squeaked by Wood- bum in another thriller Satur- day, 52-48. Free throws made the difference, with both teams hitting 20 field goals. The W’ol- verincs sunk 12 out of 20 from the line, with Woodburn getting 8 for 15. The Bulldogs scored 14 points to our 10 in the first quarter. but w ere outpointed in the other three. But this doesn’t tell the whole story. Santiam trailed by hs much as 10 points tfl the second and third quarters, scor ing in spurts at the end of the quarter. The end of the third stanza brought the game to a 42-42 tie, and no one was clear ly ahead until the final min utes. when the Wolverines put over their four-point lead and made it stick. After hitting two for seven field goal attempts in the first half. Mark Sheythe netted six out of eight in the second half, for a total of 22 points. Terry Morris hit double figures with 13 for Santiam. Bing Lantis, with 14, and Jerry Brittan, with 12, led Woodburn. Wolverine scorers were: Sheythe 22, Morris 13, Hicker son 6.

There will be a special elec tion by the Mill City Rural Fire Protection district for the an nexation of contiguous territory to the district. Monday, Janu ary 28. Voting will be at the fire hall from 2 until 8 p. m., according to Jack Colburn, secretary of the district. Lloyd Girod To Head Hosp. Board The annual meeting ot the stockholders and the board meeting ot Santiam Memorial Hospital was held at the First National bank at Stayton Thurs day evening. The ballots had been counted on Wednesday night and the following were elected to the board: From the Gates-Mill City area: E. S. Peterson and J. C. Kimmel; Ly ons-Mehama-Elkhorn : Ken Gol- liet and Paul Geraths, from Stayton, John Etzei; Submility, Richard Schumacher; and A. J. Frank was elected at large. Elected as chairman of the board of director* wa* Lloyd Girod; and A. J. Frank, John Etzei and Richard Schumach er were named on the executive board. Merton Cox, chairman of the building committee gave a comprehensive report on the activities during the past year, showing that much had been ac complished. The new addition* to the hospital will be ready lor use within a lew days, he said. When speaking of pediatrics ward, he stated it is one of the finest in the North west. There is a new drug room and a nurse* station, besides the main office and record* storage space. A new roof was put on the hospital this summer, and foL iowing the big storm of Octo ber 12, when the chimney fell through into the hospital, all repairs were made from insur ance, so there was no casn loss to the organization. Cox said all building during the ‘jVar was done without much lerruption in operation and the manager. Gale Christensen and the staff did their work without complaints. During the business session it was voted to install a mobile telephone in the ambulance. The board believed that this was an essential piece of equip ment which could be used to advantage when the ambulance answers emergency calls where people are seriously injured. A report was given on the work of the Hospital Auxiliary and it was learned they were giving the pediatrics ward $ou0 and also will furnish drapes for the new office. The Auxiliary is also planning to give pins to Chee rentes who put in a certain number of hours of work. The Auxiliary also is making novel wash cloths for patients in the pediatrics ward. The board extended their thanks to A. J. Frank and J. C. Kimmel for their work dur ing the past year—a year which will go down in the records as being a successful one.
