Pag« Ten Thursday, August 13, 1970 Th« Nyssa Gat« City Journal, Nyssa, Oregon SECRETARY HICKEL MAIN SPEAKER AT DEDICATION OF CONVERTER STATION Acceptances are coming in daily to more than 9,000 in­ vitations to attend the dedica­ tion of the Celilo Converter Station and direct-current transmission lines Bonneville Power Administration officials said. W.A. Galbraith, BPA Port­ land area manager and general chairman for the event, said more than 2,000 persons have accepted invitations sent nation­ wide in a special mailing to power industry-related indivi­ duals to attend the August 25 event near The Dalles, Ore. Secretary of the Interior Wal­ ter J. Hickel will be the prin­ cipal speaker when the station and the world’s longest high voltage D.C. line are dedicated. Secretary Hickel will speak on the “Challenges of a Clean Environment” at ceremonies starting at 10 a.m. Galbraith emphasized that anyone wishing to attend the event would be welcome. An invitation is not necessary for admittance. Open house is scheduled to start at 8 a.m. at the Converter Station where alternating current is changed to direct current by giant mer­ cury arc valves to send south over the world’s longest (846 miles) high voltage D.C. trans­ mission line to Sylmar, near Los Angeles, California, where it is converted back to A.C. When power is needed in the Pacific Northwest the process is reversed. The system can carry 1,440,000 kilowatts in either direction - enough power to supply the needs of a city the size of Seattle. Enter­ tainment will be provided be­ fore the ceremony gets under­ way. Plenty of parking is available on the grounds. Celilo Con­ verter Station is located just east of U.S. Highway 197 four miles southeast of The Dalles.

As with other upland game birds, pheasant broods are from two to three weeks later than usual, pro­ bably the result of the slow spring. The best production areas continue to be the Uma­ tilla country, agricultural lands in Union and Baker counties, and in northern Malhaur County. Chukar and quail broods running as high as 12 to 15 youngsters per pair of adults have been observed. In some areas quail broods average 10 chicks while chukar broods average 13 chicks. Some of the better gunning areas will undoubtedly be the breaks of the John Day, the Snake River country, cheatgrass and rimrock canyons of the » Burnt and Powder rivers, Owy­ hee Canyon, and the Malheur River drainage. A bumper crop of quail is predicted over much of southeastern Oregon. POT ROAST lb POT ROAST HEAT & Sally, a housewife, was hauled into court by the police and sen­ tenced to 30 days in jail. She was convicted of fraudulently obtaining telephone service. Sally was an upstanding citi­ zen who had never before vio­ lated the law. However, she saw nothing wrong with trying to “trick” the phone company out of a long distance toll charge. Her system was to place a long distance call, and then when the operator asked for her phone number, she gave a false num­ ber. At her trial the judge pointed out to her that she had stolen money from the phone company as surely as if she had taken money from thecompnay’scash register. She said she hadn’t thought of it that way. Another telephone ‘frime’ is to refuse to surrender a party line to another person who asks to use the party line to report a fire, or to summon police, medical or other aid in case of emergency. An “emergency” is defined by the law as a situa­ tion in which property or human life are in jeopardy and the prompt summoning of aid is es­ sential. It is also a crime for any one to be allowed to use a party line for an emergency call when no emergency exists. The law classifies all of these crimes as a misdemeanor, punishable by a jail sentence of not more than 90 days, or a fine of not more than $250. Sally’s jail sentence of 30 days was only a third of the time she could have been sentenced to serve for her theft of long distance phone calls. Oregon lawyers offer this co­ lumn as a public service. No person should apply or interpret any law without the aid of an attorney who is completely ad­ vised of the facts involved. Even a slight variance in fact may change theapplicationof the law.
