Eastmans Observe
40th Anniversary
The 40th wedding anniver
sary of Bernard and Marjorie
Eastman was observed on
Sunday, December 26. 1976,
by a family dinner party in
Boise, at the Cock of the
Walk Inn. Arrangements for
this observance were made
by the couple’s two sons and
their wives, Michael and
Dorilee Eastman of Ashland;
and Patrick and Janet East
man of Albany, Oregon. A
special part of this event was
a large, appropriately-deco
rated cake which was cut and
served by the honored couple
at the end of the dinner to the
twelve guests who were
present to congratulate the
Eastmans. Also in atten
dance were their two grand
children. Geoffrey and Lisa
of Ashland; Mrs. Eastman's
sister. Stella Gardiner of
Boise; and a brother and his
wife. Mr. and Mrs. George
Hewitt of Boise.
The Eastmans were mar
ried at Boise in St. Michael's
Cathedral, on December 26,
1936, while she was teaching
at Vale. Oregon and he was
employed by the Department
of Internal Revenue in Boise.
In January of 1939, they
moved to Nyssa and opened a
realestate and insurance of
fice on 315 Main where the
same business continues in
operation today. After their
arrival and settling here, they
soon became an active part
of civic and community life.
Two sons were born to the
couple in Nyssa and were
raised here. In 1953, a new
office building was erected to
replace the small frame
house which had been used
as a combination dwelling
office prior to this time. Since
then, the Eastmans have
resided in their present home
at 304 Park Avenue.

Your electric use is setting records
and causing us some problems.
On June 30, 1976, you and your neighbors set a
record. You collectively used more electricity than
you ever had before.
June 30 was a hot day. As temperatures elimbed,
irrigation pumps and air conditioners were switched
on. Demand for electricity shot upward.
It was our “peak” day — the day of the year
electric demand is highest.
At its greatest, the peak was 1,960,000
kilowatts. Our hydro plants were able to
generate less than half that amount. More than
one-fourth of your electricity at peak came
from coal burned at the Jim Bridger plant.
Other power companies were able to supply
one-fifth of your electricity.

to meet all your needs for electricity on many of last
summer's hottest days.
By the middle of July, river levels had dropped
sharply, reducing our hydro capacity. Our hydro
plants were producing only a third of your electricity.
Imported power from other utilities was providing
another third. The rest came mostly from coal at Jim
Bridger.
Our 1976 peak was 145,000 kilowatts greater
than our 1975 peak — an increase of 8 percent
and a growth in your electric demand slightly
higher than we had expected.
We’re intent on providing you reliable and
adequate electric service. And well do so if we can
comply with all the environmental and regulatory
requirements in time to construct new generating
facilities to meet your growing needs.
