The new production lines will double their present capacity when needed, and will provide additional jobs for area residents. Over a million pounds of potato products are processed at Ore-Ida daily for shipment to all parts of the country. Ore-Ida has become the nation's leading producer of retail frozen potato products, and is this area's number one employer. They also purchase a large portion of the potatoes grown in this Valley. It is interesting to note that the thousand or more employees are almost equally divided between Idaho and Oregon residents, and a great many of them are from the Nyssa-Adrian area. Their expansion represents faith in the agricultural and economic health of this area, and we join all residents of the Treasure Valley in appreciation for their continued participation in our economy. Superintendent's Corner By W.L. McPartland Nyssa Schools have faced some real problems as a result of the fire last June. One of the most difficult has been the loss of gym facilities. The housing for class rooms. while difficult, has been solved with the rental of the Chadwick Building, the remaining High School class rooms and use of six rooms in the Elementary School. The use of the L.D.S., Methodist and Nazarene Church facili ties has taken care of most of the P.E.. Band and Chorus reasonably well. The Nyssa School wishes to express our thanks for the use and cooperation given by each of these groups. LDS To Hold Gold & Green Everyone is invited to attend the Nyssa Stake "Gold and Green Ball” Friday evening. March 21 from 8:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. The seven wards of the Nyssa Stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will present the Ball The dance theme will be "Pieces of April." There will be a variety of music for both young and old presented by the Ricks College Combo from Ricks College. There will be an intermis sion floor show and refresh ments. There is no admission charge and everyone is welcome to attend. The athletic programs are a different story. Treasure Valley Community College has furnished a gym for both the basketball teams to practice and play games, and to the wrestling team to practice and have matches. For example: Nyssa Schools did not have wrestling mats so it was necessary to practice and wrestle at Treasure Valley. Without the College help, our teams would have been without practice and game space. I personally want to ex press my thanks for all the cooperation and personal help received from President Skinner and the faculty of Treasure Valley Community College.

Wilson THE EDITOR Editor The Journal: I am a college sophomore presently attending Treasure Valley Community College. Before coming to Ontario, however. I was enrolled in a large university for a year and a half. To be honest, I was a bit anxious as to what Treasure Valley Community College could offer me as a student, but since coming here, I have been very pleasantly surprised. A wide variety of classes are offered at Treasure Valley Community College. No matter what your field might be. there are plenty of classes available to fill your time and interest. The quality of teaching is also comparable to the larger school. The instructors here seem to be sincerely in terested in each student and make themselves available for individual help. This would many times be an impossibility at a very large college. 1 especially like the fact that my classes are fairly small—which allows much more personalized learning. Treasure Valley Com munity College is a school with great potential, and I urge prospective students to consider taking advantage of what it has to offer. Sincerely. Shan Moss. TVCC Student Editor. The Journal: As a 1974 graduate from Nyssa High School. I am presently attending Treasure Valley Community College. There are several reasons why I chose to pursue my education at Treasure Valley Community College. Tuition costs was one of the major reasons. Compared to other schools of the same calibre Treasure Valley Community College has a lower tuition. There is a pleasant atmos phere here, and the smaller classroom size is advan tageous. in that it allows students more individual help whenever needed. Also, the smaller classes allow students to develop a more friendly and personal rela tionship with the instructors. Treasure Valley Com munity College is one of the finer assets to the people of Nyssa as well as the other small areas in the Valley, in as much as it enables one to get a taste of what college life is all about, especially if you plan to continue on at a four year college. In a few days the people of this voting district will have before them a measure dealing with the funding for Treasure Valley Community College. I urge you to vote YES. Sincerely. Mary Ann Estrada. Treasure Valley Com munity College Student aiHaHWHMIL.,Xdte ' I *■ oa IT BETTER. Christian Church Biblical Oratorio Will Be Given Sunday Evening An outstanding group of guest soloists will be featured when the Biblical oratorio "King David" by Arthur Honegger is presented on Sunday evening. March 16. at 8:15 p.m. in the Ontario High School Auditorium by the Treasure Valley Com munity College Department of Music. Each of the twenty-seven musical numbers is linked together by brief narrations which serve to actually tell the story of David’s life in a compact way and to carry the dramatic action forward. The narrator will be Gordon Eichmann from Boise. Eichmann is well-known to audiences in the valley as a frequent bass-bantone so loist and for his many roles in musical and dramatic works. His most recent appearance was in the highly successful "Jacques Brel is Alive and Well in Paris,” Ontano audiences will remember him for his masterly portrayal of King Arthur in "Camelot” several years ago. Esther Rickard will sing the very demanding soprano solo role. She is a graduate of Northwest Nazarene Col lege in music education.
