Ore-Ida Expansion Helps Area
Ore-Ida's completion of the $7.5 million expansion of their
potato processing facilities is a great help for the economic
health of this region.
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.

Madge E. 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.

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.
