When he hadn't returned after a week, hisC.O. sent him a wire: ‘RETURN IMMEDIATELY OR EXPLAIN’. Back came a wire: ‘IT’S WON DERFUL HERE.REQUEST EX TENSION OF LEAVE.’ The C. O. answered: ‘IT’S WONDER FUL ANYWHERE. RETURNTO SHIP.’ The thirty-ish unmarried girl was reading a book on the meanings of names. “Mother,” she said, ‘‘it tells here that Philip means ‘lover of horses’ and James means ‘beloved.’ I wonder what ‘George’ means.” “Let’s hope,” said Mother, “that George means business.” «««««« Í 1*, Salem Scene by Jack Zimmerman Give a woman an inch, and she thinks she’s the ruler. •••*** An old maid is a gal who knows all the answers but is never asked the question.

And now comes word of an atomic Energy Commission hearing, probably in November, on Portland General Electric's Trojan nuclear plant near Rainier. The hearing is des cribed as the last step before AEC issues PGE a construc tion permit for Trojan. Granting of that permit will climax four years of tedious preparation by PGE--but only the m:d-point in the period between original announcement of intention to build and the time the first power is generated. PGE announced its Trojan plant in February 1967. Thou sands of man hours have gone into design efforts,consultation with the many agencies involved in nuclear plant construction and operation and to learn answers necessary to meet re quirements of AEC and the state. Some pre-construction site excavation began last March and will be complete next month. The work was done at PGE’s risk and was neces sary to maintain the tight com pletion schedule. The plant is to be ‘‘on the line’’ in Sep tember 1974. The Advisory Committee of Reactor Safeguards -- an inde pendent consulting board of sci entists and engineers, reported favorably on the Trojan project last July. Requirements of the Oregon Environmental Quality Control Commission have been met and that body issued a waste dis charge permit a year ago. Hearings already have satisfied federal water quality require ments and Oregon’s Water Re sources Board has indicated it will not oppose the project. Back on the federal level, the Fish and Wildlife Service has indicated satisfaction with water intake structure and dis charges if minor modifications ^»Agreed to “.»if necessary after the plant is in operation.” No roadblocks are expected from other agencies.

D ENGINr blackouts When he was in Oregon last month, Sec. of Interior Walter J. Hickel called electricity the best road to a clean environ- meat. And at the same time he expressed disappointment that so few people appear concerned about a shortage of electrical power generating facilities. Tne “energy crisis,” he said, is just as serious as the environ mental crisis. In Oregon — traditionally the land of cheap and abun dant hydro-electric power,an impending energy shortage is especially hard to believe. But it’s com.ng unless the widely publicized Bonneville Power Administration’s hydrothermal mix becomes a reality. This plan calls for a comprehensive joining of forces by public and private power agencies and utilities to provide a mixture of energy sources necessary to satisfy known power re- quirements dunng the Seven- ties and the decades im- mediately following. The hydro-thermal mix in volves long-range planning, fi nancing and construction of electric power generating fa cilities on a precariously tight timetable. Already that sche dule has been disrupted because voters withdrew ap proval of Eugene Water and Electric Board’s plans to con struct a nuclear power ge nerating facility. ¡The Nyssa Gate City Journal Pag« Nin« HOOVER SLIMLINE CANISTER VACUUM With all attachments Reg. $38.95 ,si« ALL MAKES VACUUM BAGS . . .
