Dear Editor:
The Senior Citizen’s con
ference on the aging, convened
in the 4-H building at the State
fairgrounds in Salem May 23 and
24.
W.D. (Brownie) Brown
was the attending delegate re
presenting the Nyssa Senior
Citizens.
The two-day program was
both educational and recrea
tional, consisting of tours of
the Capitol building and all
points of interest in and about
the city. Cars were provided
for all transportation, with the
drivers acting as host. Pri
vate homes were given the
visiting delegates and all ho
tels wore a welcome atmos-
phere.
The beautiful Marion
hotel was headquarters and the
entire city actuated warmth and
friendliness.
Dr. Ken Miller, Mayor of
Salem, opened the Friday ses
sion, followed by speakers from
Washington, D. C. and San Fran
cisco. Clay Myers, secretary
of the state of Oregon, gave an
excellent talk.
There were
work shops on green thumb pro
jects, food and nutrition, health
and education, crafts, the
generation gap, and a banquet
in the evening, followed with
dancing.
Saturday was filled with busi-
- ness and reports from the
various Senior Citizen organ!-
zations. These reports could
give a new understanding of
the scope involved by these
groups in their communities.
There were citations of par
ticipation much needed in Nys
sa. All definitely showing our
elderly are useful in commun
ity service. Dr. John E. Long
was elected at the conference
as delegate in 1970, represen
ting the Nyssa unit.
With similar town support,
as was shown in these re
ports, Nyssa Senior Citizens
are envisioning a future head
quarters of their own, where
they may carry on these same
services. — The Nyssa Senior
Citizens.

Editor:
There are still a few ques
tions to be asked which Presi
dent Skinner and the TVCC
board have not answered. Also
there are many demands that
have been made by the public
concerning the college condi
tions. We wish to set forth
some of these questions and
demands:
1. Why is Mr. Fowler still
both the accountant and auditor
for TVCC? Why wasn’t a dif
ferent auditor hired to make the
yet unfinished 1967-68 audit
when Mr. Fowler was tempor-
arily indisposed?
2. Why is
the present
college lawyer a former mem
ber of the college board?
3. Would you please present
your proof that the so-called
“right-wingers” and the Mor
mon Church are trying to dis
rupt the college?
4. Is there dope traffic in
TVCC? If so, is it true that
some college teachers are in
volved in this dope problem?
5. Is there a subversive
group operating within the col
lege? Is this subversive group
counseling our young men to
avoid the draft?
6. Retain the P. E. pro
gram; but dispose of the athletic
program on the campus.
7. Dispose of the $600,000
OEO program in TVCC. The
taxpayers are financing TVCC
as a community college not a
federal one. Let it serve our
LOCAL students.
8. We are demanding the
immediate resignation of the
following administrators: Pre
sident Skinner, Otis Murray,
Don Ridener, Ed Haynes and
Dick DeBisschop.
We have been advised that
the present situation at TVCC
must be corrected NOW or be
prepared to accept the continu
ance of the present inefficiency.
Respectfully, .
The League of Oregon Parents

Gentlemen:
Sincere thanks for your won
derful support for our recent,
successful educational and fund
raising April crusade.
Your free public service en
ables us to reach many more
Oregonians with life saving in
formation than we could ever
reach on our own.
Our three-phase program of
public and professional educa
tion, research and patient and
community service is making
headway. In the early 1930’s
fewer than one in five was
being saved - that is, alive
five years after first being
treated.
Since 1956 the ratio has de
creased to one in three. This
could be one in two if everyone
went to his doctor in time.
That is why it is so vital for
all persons to be alert to can
cer’s seven warning signals and
have an annual checkup.
With your continued support
we will reach that one in two.
The other victim still needs
