Statistically speaking, parentsofkindergartners in Baker County schools continue to be among the highest percentage in the state to seek nonmedical exemptions for their children

from the state's immunization program.

But those statistics, a 7.3-percent rate,includejust 11 students countywide, according to an Oregon Health Authority (OHAl report released May 1.

The report, produced by

the Oregon Immunization Program,statesthat5.8 percent of all Oregon kindergartners (2,693 students) listed "religious, philosophical or other nonmedical exemption to one or more required vaccines."

The numbers in 2014

were at 3,331 students, 7 percentstatewide,and placed Oregon at the top ofthelistofstateswhose parents sought nonmedical exemptions for their kindergartners.

Rachel Center fundraiser The Rachel Center's annual baby bottle fundraiser begins Mother's Day weekend and continues through Father's Day. During that time, plastic baby bottles will be set out at local churches and businesses throughout the county to collect change, cash and checks.

"This is our main fundraiser for the year," said Alberta Darlington, center director.

All proceeds support the center, which provides clothing for babies and children, diapers, formula and other baby-related items for those who need extra help with securing these supplies.

The center also has a new kitchen, Bible studies, counseling about abortion, and parenting classes.

Darlington said they hope to soon offer cooking and sewing classes for parents.

She said donations of kitchen-related items are welcome. They also are need of more volunteers.

She said the community is invited to stop in during open hours (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Wednesday, Thursday and Friday) to see the center's changes.

For more information about the center, stop by at 2192 Court St. or call 541-523-5357.

Seven BakerCity fi refi ghters responded to a smoldering blaze in a U-Haul moving van parked at the Oregon Trail Motel Wednesday evening.

Lt. David Blair said the fire was started by exhaust that was directed into the van's cargo box after a blown tire smashed the exhaust pipe. The exhaust caused household items inside the van tosmolder forseveral hours before catching fire.

The van was driven by David Hardesty of Sun City, Ariz., who was helping move a frrend to Washmgton. The friend's name was not avail-

STEP FORWARD

John Kitzhaber in 2013 issued executive order 13-04. Its goal is to move disabled workers fiom sheltered workshops into mainstream jobs over the next decade.

What that means for Step Forward, Button said, is that starting July 1, when a client leaves a job in the 10th Street building, Step Forward can't hire another disabled worker to fill the spot.

The goal instead, as required by the executive order, is to try to find jobs outside Step Forward for clients, what's known as "integrated employment," Button said.

To that end, Step Forward applied forand recently received a one-year, $62,500grant from the state Department of Human Services to hire someone to try to find jobs for clients, Button sald.

Step Forward was one of 12 of the 34 applicantstoreceive agrant,and the only recipient in Eastern Oregon.

Step Forward hired Pamela Roan as its employment specialist. After finish-

Continued ~om Page1A The lawsuit was filed on behalf of eight Oregonians employed in sheltered workshops in Western Oregon. About 2,300 people work in such facilities at any given time, according to the lawsuit.

Among the plaintiffs' complaints is that federal law allows sheltered workshops to pay employees less than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.

Button said many Step Forward clients do earn the federal minimum wage, and some make more.

Some clients make less, with their pay determined based on their production rather than an hourly rate, a practice federal law also allows.

One of Step Forward's largest contracts is making plastic trash can liners.

It has a five-year, $4.5 million contract with the state that expires July 31 of this year.

"I have every confidence that the business men and women of Baker and Grant County will help us meet this challenge as we work together to create employment opportunities for our local disabled populations," Button said.

He acknowledges that some of Step Forward's 46 clients in Baker City could work in mainstream jobs.

But Button said he doesn't believe it's realistic that all of them can do so.

Once Step Forward is no longer able to hire workers, the capacity of the 10th Street shop will decline, eventually reaching a point where the organization can no longer fulfill its contracts, Button sald.

That could leave people without jobs, and potentially affect Step Forward's other services, he said, which include six group homes for residents with disabilities.

In most cases under current rules, the trainingis required just one time, Jonathan Modie, OHA spokesman, said in an email to the Baker City Herald.

'The only exception would be a parent with a child in day care who had completed the process and the child was now goinginto kindergarten and it had been more than a year since they had completed the module" he wrote.'They would have to complete theprocess again but only one more time."

If a family has on file a religiousexemption signed before March 1, 2014, no action is needed, Modie stated in an OHA press release.Ifupdates to the exemption are made, however, the parent or guardian must complete the online training or be educated by a health care provider to qualify for the exemption.

How Oregon's vaccination exemption rate compares nationally won't be known untilAugust or September, when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention releases its report on all states' exemption rates, Modie said.

The latest exemption data were compiled atter School Exclusion Day, Feb. 18, 2015.

That is the date when parents or guardians were required to provide updated immunization or exemption documentation to their children's schools.

Vaccination exemption rates byindividual school will be available in early June.

EDITORIAL

OO 1 CB Along with an abhorrence for a sales tax and an afmity for public beaches, Oregon's list of prominent legal peccadilloes includes a ban on people pumping their own gas.

Although there's no real logic behind the latter48 of the 49 other states afford drivers the privilege of topping oA'their tanks — we accept, aker 64 years, that it's likely to continue in Oregon.

But we're pleased that lawmakers, including our representative, Clif Bentz, want to address a problem that the ban on self-serve gas can exacerbate.

Which is that in many parts of Oregon, gas stations can be dozens of miles apart, and the few that exist aren't open 24 hours a day.

Local residents can adapt, of course.

But travelers might well pull into, say, John Day or Burns or Jordan Valley some evening, low gas light glowing in the dashboard, and find nothing but

locked pumps.

This is not only an inconvenience for visitors.

It also could cost the station a potential sale, should the driver decide to risk trying to make it to the next town.

Bentz's legislation, House Bill 3011, could help avoid such pitfalls.

The bill would allow gas stations in counties with 40,000 or fewer residents — that's 18 of Oregon's 36, including Baker County — to have self-serve pumps.

However, people could pump their own gas only at times when the station owner, attendants or other employees weren't around.

The House has already approved Bentz's bill, and by unanimous vote.

We hope the Senate does the same, and that Gov. Kate Brown signs the bill into law.

It's far from a reversal of Oregon's ban on selfserve gas.

But it might give gas station owners in rural Oregon a boost.

The bill might burnish the state's reputation as a tourist destination, too. Most people aren't likely to remember with fondness the state where they ran out of gas aker dark and the nearest open station was 50 miles away.

e or ottenattac on e In theaftermath ofthe 9/11terrorist attacks, columnist George Will wrote that those"war deaths iwerel the first withinAmerica since 1865." Sadly, he was wrong. In fact, during World War II several Americans livingin the United States lost their lives because of enemy action. Seventyyears ago this week, on May 5, 1945, sixAmericans, five of them children between the ages of11 and 14, were killed in the explosion of a Japanese bomb in the uplands of south-central Oregon.

This tragedy occurred at the end of the war, when Germany was collapsing and Japan was struggling to stave off defeat.

Beginningin late 1944, Japan had released 6,000 balloons armed with bombs, expecting them to ride the S-shaped"jet stream" that swings northeastward, and then southeast and finally eastward across the United States and Canada.

Once over enemy territory, built-in timers would cause the balloons to drop and the bombs to explode,thusignitingforest fires and causing other destruction. At speedsofupto300milesperhour,the bombs floated kom Japan thousands of miles across the Pacific toward unsuspectingresidents in North America in little more than a day.

This was such a beautiful spring morning that Elsie Mitchell, five months pregnant, changed her mind and decided to join her husband Archie, a local pastor, and five Sunday school children on a fishing outing. Archie loaded his 1931 sedan with fishing equipment, picnic lunches, the children and his wife. But he had not anticipated

Archie asked the men about road and fishing conditions; the road was impassable, they replied, and the creek was probably too muddy for fishing.

Meanwhile, therough ridehad made Elsie slightly carsick; she was thus happy to get out of the car to take the children on an inspection tour of the creek. It was about 10:20 a.m. Archie had started the car, and as he began to move it to higher ground, he heard Elsie call,"Iook what I found, dear."

Richard R. Barnhouse, foreman of theroad crew,had startedthegrader and was following Archie up the hill. He stopped, too. From the high seat of the grader, he could see Mrs. Mitchell and the children about 100 yards awayin the woods staring at something."As Mr. Mitchell stopped his car," Barnhouse wrote later in his official statement, "there was a terrible explosion."

Stunned, thefourmen rushed down the hill just as another bomb, a smaller one, exploded. They were notinjured, but the two bombs together seemed to eliminate the possibility that Mrs. Mitchell or the children could survive. The mangled bodiesoffourboyswere scattered around the bomb crater; a girl lived through the immediate blasts, but died later. Elsie Mitchell, too, was still alive, but her cloth-

It's not so much that we tilt at windmills.

It's that voters in the Willamette Valley, should the matter ever make it to the ballot, will decide where to build the things.

And I'd wager they think wheat fields and sagebrush ridges, which they don't have to look at every day, are more suitable sites than, say, the West Hills of Portland, where turbines might mar the views of Mount Hood or eviscerate hawks or something equally unacceptable.

The numbers are overwhelming.

Baker County, with about 16,325 residents, makes up slightly less than one-half of one percent of Oregon's population.

M ore to the point,our9,900 orso registeredvotersconstitute about the same slim percentage of the state's electorate.

We might not be the proverbial drop in the bucket, but we wouldn't exactly soak the ballot box, if I may stretch the metaphor slightly.

The situation isn't quite so overwhelming in the Legislature.

JAYSON JACOBY ematically possible that public policies, which acknowledge certain unique aspects of life in Eastern Oregon, will become law.

During the current session in Salem, for instance, lawmakers are mulling over a couple bills that, were they put to a statewide vote, would disappear into the maw of Multnomah County — 446,000 registeredvoters,alm ost50tim es more than Baker County — never to be heard kom again.

But we might gain a measure of control over the kind of fuel we burn in our rigs, and how we pump it into the tanks.

Senate Bill 164 would exempt counties east of the Cascades kom a 4-year-old state law that requires diesel to contain atleast5 percent renewable biodiesel.

The exemption would be seasonal — Nov. 1 to Feb. 28 — and for a simple reason.

It gets a lot colder on our side of the Cascades during that period, and diesel, as anyone who has been responsible fora schoolbus,sem itruck or tractor in our continental

climatecan attest,has arather reptilian reaction to frigid temperatures.

It gets sluggish, turning into a glutinous gel that clogs fuel filters and turns engines into useless lumps of metal.

The bill's sponsor, Sen. Doug Whitsett, a Republican from Klamath Falls, said school officials told him gelling has become more common since the 5-percent biodiesel requirement took effect.

The biodiesel lobby questions such claims. Other opponents argue that Whitsett's bill would thwart the state'seffortto encourage the production of biodiesel.

But it seems to me that this is an area where our puny population works in our favor. Waiving the 5-percentbiodieselmandate for four months out of 12, and only in the thinlypeopled partofthe state, would have at most a negligible effect on the biodiesel industry.

The other fuel-related bill, House Bill3011,addresses Oregon's peculiarobjection todriverspumping gas and diesel into their tanks.

ing was on fire, and she died while Archie struggled to smother the flames with his bare hands.

A bomb disposal expert, who located and disarmed other unexploded bombs lying nearby, guessed that somebody had kicked the bomb. The tragedy, of course, devastated the townspeople. A mass funeral for the four boys, attended by 450 people, was held in the Klamath Temple, in the neighboring town of Klamath Falls, because their church seated only 150. Surprisingly little news about the explosion reached the public. To avoid panic, federal government officials had prevailed upon thelocalcoronerto conclude,'The cause of death, in my opinion, was kom an explosion of undetermined source."

Fortyyears later, a group of Japanese women who had learned of the bomb explosion traveled to Bly to atone for their partin the tragedy.In 1945,asschoolgirls, they had been assigned the task of making washi, a heavy rice paper glued together with potato paste. The washi was made into balloons 36 feetin diameter. For years, they had no idea what it was for.

By coming to Bly, planting cherry trees and placing folded paper cranes on the gravesofthe 1945 bomb victims, the women hoped to bring dosure to their participation in events that had led to the deaths of innocent people. Such closure might notyet be possible, however. For there is still a danger kom unexploded balloons-bombs lyingin the US. and Canada,where to dateonly afew hundred of the 6,000 bombs have been found.

TUMALO FALLS NEAR BEND

Prineville man'sattemyttoidenti fallsviewyointvandalsgoesviral

By Dylan J. Darling WesCom News Service

Brett Nelson of Prineville just wanted to make a point about apparent vandalism he and a buddy encountered Saturday at Tumalo Falls near Bend. He did not expect it to go viral.

What started with a photo snapped by his friend, Lyle Sweeney, 53, of San Francisco, and a Facebook post by Nelson, 41, has turned into a nationalstory aspeople acrossthe Internet expressed their outrage about what they saw.

The photo shows a boy and a girl mugging for the camera while a man pinches a snack out of a plastic bag.

Sweeney said he and Nelson witnessed the kids etching their initials using black hunting knives into the metal railing on an overlook downstream of Tumalo Falls. Nelson said the man responded to his asking them to stop with rudeness.

Sweeney took the photo after telling the man and the kids that what they were doing wasafederaloffense.

The photo has also made its way to the Deschutes National Forest, where investigators are trying to determine who the man and kids are, said Kassidy Kern, spokeswoman for the national forest. cWe are trying to understand what exactly happened," she said.

Damaging federal property can be a misdemeanor, with possible penalties including

up to a $5,000 fine and six months in jail, she said.

Tumalo Falls near Bend.

While the apparent incident itself is a small one, Kern said the big interest around the Internet in the story gives Deschutes National Forest a chance to talk about vandalism problems.

These include people shooting signs, dumping trash and scribbling graSti in caves.

Kern said she was not surprisedto see people take to Nelson and Sweeney's social media message as much as they did.

"I think that people really care about public lands in this country," she said, "whether it is a national park or in national forest."

As of Wednesday afternoon, Nelson's Facebook post from Saturday with

Sweeney's photo has been shared more than 62,500 times.

The image spawned a meme of the man in the photo descending into the recently reported hole in Lost Lake as a suggested solution to the situation.

The story has also moved from social media into large m edia outlet s.

"I had a friend in New York say 'Hey, you're getting mainstream press,' " Nelson sard.

While awed by the attention the photo and story have gotten, Nelson and Sweeney said they hope it causes people around the country to talk about taking care of public lands.

"Itis a m atter ofright

and wrong and principle," Nelson said.

Sweeney said he did not photograph the initials scratched into the rail by the kids.

"I didn't want to give them the pleasure of knowing that I wanted a picture of their work," he said.

Ironically, Nelson said he had originally planned to spend Saturday at the Smith Rock Spring Thing, cleaning up Smith Rock State Park, but changed his plans because of a sore rib.

He instead decided to check out Tumalo Falls, a place he had not been before, with Sweeney.

"All I wanted to do is go for a little hike and enjoy it," Nelson said.

WASHINGTON — Significant amounts of natural gas on federal lands arebeingwasted,costingtaxpayerstens of millions of dollars each year and adding to harn&1 greenhouse gas emissions, a congressional investigation has found.

The nonpartisan Government Accountability Office also said the Bureau of Land Management failed to conduct production inspections for hundreds ofhigh-priority oil and gas wells — roughly 1 out of 5 — to ensure full payment of royalties to the U.S. The report, obtained by The Associated Press before its public release, is the latest to highlight substantial gaps in oversight.

AnAP review of govemmentrecords last May found the agency, which manages oil and gas development on federal and indian lands, had been overwhelmed by a boom in Wy d en a new drilling technique known as hydraulic fracturing, or fracking.

The GAO report said ithad been urging BLM, an agency of the Interior Department, to update guidelines for the burning or venting of natural gas since at least 2010, when it found 40 percent of it could be captured economically and sold. BLM has yet to do so, although agency officials now say they are in the process of putting together various ordersand aproposed rulefor comment laterthisyear.

'The Interior Department has known for at least a decade that companies have been wasting natural gas from oil and gas wells on public lands," said Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore. Venting and flaring natural gas from these wells hurts the environment and speeds up global warming, and it shortchanges the taxpayers."

He joined Reps. Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., and Raul Grijalva, D-Ariz., the top Democrat on the House Committee on Natural Resources, in calling on the department to redouble efforts to stem waste, rather than give"drilling companies a pass to let millions of taxpayer dollars evaporate into thin air."

AnewlookNBA:Playomsmissing tra itional gowers • This year's NBA champion will either be a first-time title winner, or a team that hasn't won a championship in at least 17 years

By Paul Newberry AP Sports Wrtter

Spurs and Celtics? Already eliminated.

Lakers and Heat? Didn't even make the playotfs.

There's a new look to this NBA postseason, which will crown a champion that hasn't won the title in at least 17 years — or, quite possibly, a franchise that has never been on top.

'There is not just one dominant team,"Washington's Bradley Beal said Thursday.'You're not going to see the same teams."

Indeed, of the eight conference semifinalists, the most recent to win a championship is the Chicago Bulls, who claimed the last of six Michael Jordan-era titles in 1998.

The Houston Rockets are the only other multiple champion still playing, winning back-to-back titles in

1994-95.

There are two tranchises that won their only championships so long ago, well, one had a different nickname ithe Washington Wizards were the Bullets when they took the 1978 title) and another was in a different city ithe 1958 St. Louis

Hawks, who moved to Atlanta a decade later). The Golden State Warriorsare 40yearsremoved from their lone championship season, but at least they've got a banner.

The Los Angeles Clippers, Cleveland Cavaliers and Memphis Grizzlies have never won a title.

"I don't think there's any question that fresh faces and new teams invigorate the sport," Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace said."It adds new flavors for the fans to sample. And they like it. The game has never really been more popular on a global standpoint than it is right now."

While the NBA was the first major North American league to put in a salary cap, it's had the most exclusive group of champions. Over the last 16 years, just three teams — the Los Angeles Lakers, San Antonio Spurs and Miami Heathave hoggeda totalof13 titles.

Going back even farther to the launch of the modern NBA in 1950, two teams — the Boston Celtics, with 17 banners, and the Lakers, who have a total of 15 including their time in Minneapolis — account for nearly half the champion-

ships.

That's why this season really stands out for the NBA. "Whoever wins is going to be a brand new face,"Warriors coach Steve Kerr said."That's exciting for those of us who are still playing."

Some possibl ereasons forthis changing of the playofF guard:

TEAM BALL San Antonio proved last year that a team doesn't need a megastar to win the title, and plenty of teams are trying to follow the Spurs model.

Most notable is Atlanta, where the roster was expertly assembled by former Spurs executive Danny Ferry and the coach is Mike Budenholzer, a longtime assistant under San Antonio's Gregg Popovich. The Hawks went 60-22 and claimed a top seed in the East for the first time since 1994 with an absurdly balanced lineup; the five starters averaged between 12 and 17 points a game.

Ball movement is now the order of the day, the isolation play largely viewed as a forgettable relic. With everyone sharing in this fast-paced

style, it's no longer necessary to have one of the five best players in thegame tobea titlecontender.

"It's more ofa team game," Hawks guard Jeff Teague said."A team like us, that doesn't have what you would call a superstar, can be a reallygood team."

measures the next chance they get.

No matter what, it figures to have a long-term impact on the way rosters are built and maintained.

WHERE'S LEBRON It still helps to have the best player in the world. And there's no one better than LeBron James.

Afterheading to South Beach to join Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in 2010, James led Miami to four straight NBA Finals and two championships.

When James returned to Cleveland this season, the balance of power shifted northward. The Heat missed the playotfs, while the Cavaliers finished second in the East behind Atlanta.

Even with the King in the mix for another title, there will surely be adifferent look to the celebration.

"That's what the NBA really wants,"Atlanta's Kyle Korver said.

"They want everyone to feel that if you manageyour team well,puta good team together, coach them well and play hard, it doesn't matter if you're a big market or a small market. You're going to have a chance."

TOUGHER CAP While the NBA first instituted a salary cap in the 1980s, it was long nothingmore than an annoyance for the power tranchises, which were stil labletogoafterpretty much anyone they wanted.

The lockout of 2011 changed that. Under the current collective bargaining agreement, there are shorter contracts and tougher financial penalties for teams that spend too much.

While it's still too early to know exactly how much this CBA will affect the competitivebalance,the leaguetoutsthe measures as a means to getting more teams in the mix iand making the owners a lot more profitable).

With tranchises now selling for astronomical amounts, the players figure to push back on these

footballs, he said Thursday night he needs more time to process the 243-page report.

"I don't really have any reaction. It has only been 30 hours. I've not had much time todigest it,"Brady told a university crowd that broke into frequent applause. "When I do I will be sure to let you know how I feel about it. And everybody else."

The 2015 Super Bowl MVP is waiting to find out if the NFL will discipline him with a fine, a suspension or both. New England is scheduled to play its opener against Pittsburgh

in the kickofF game of the regular season on Sept. 10.

Brady wasn't shy about saying that the scandal hasn't detracted from the 28-24 Super Bowl win over Seattle two weeks after the 45-7victory over Indianapolis in the AFC championship game that was the focus of the investigation.

"Absolutely not," he said in his first public appearance since the report from Ted Wells, an independent investigatorappointed by the NFL, was issued. "We earned everything we got and achieved as a team, and Iam proud ofthat and so are our fans."

Miami Herald

BOGOTA, Colombia — As a police reporter in Venezuela, Deivis Ramirez swings by the morgue almost daily to engagein a grim piece of detective work: determine how many people have been murdered in the capital.

In a country where even basic information — fiom inflation, to highway fatalities, to tourism spending and miscarriage rates — seems shrouded in mystery, body counters like Ramirez are trying to fill in the knowledge gap.

"It's like giving birth every day," Ramirez said, of trying to extract figures from cagey officials or count the corpses.

"Crimestatistics are some of the hardest to find."

Venezuela's constitution guaranteespublic accessto "timely and accurate" government information. And President Nicolas Maduro challengesthepressto"tell the truth" about his socialist administration. But the reality is that the truth — and the statistics that underpin it — is often in short supply.

Last week, opposition Gov. Henrique Capriles made news when he said inflation during the first four months of the year was near 50 percent — putting the country on track to dwarflast year's inflation rate of 68.5 percent, the highest in the hemisphere.

Capriles said the information came fiom"nonofficial" sources and challenged the government to come clean. iDays earlier, La Patilla website, citing anonymous

FISHING

Snake River open for spring Chinook WesCom News Servicestaff

Lisa Britton/Fcrwescom News Service

Phillips Reservoir and the Elkhorn Mountains from the summit of Black Mountain. Black Mountain doesn't offer much as far as the hike up in itself is concerned, but the view at the summit makes up for what the hike lacks.

By Jayson Jacoby WesCom News Service

Black Mountain is not an impressive peak Unless you're standing on its summit.

On a sunny day.

This lastis crucial because Black Mountain's chief attribute is the view kom its top.

The mountain itself; which forms the high ground just south of Phillips Reservoir about 20 miles southwest of Baker City, makes little immediate impression.

The mixed conifer forest that drapes most of the moun-

tain conceals its bulk. And it lacks spires or pinnades or other topographic pimples thatadd characterto other summits.

In aregion thatboastsdozens of peaks surpassing 8,000 feet, Black Mountain's apex of 6,646feetispedestrian.

Butits location, on the divide3,000feetabovethe PowderRiverto thenorth and the Burnt River to the south in effect elevates Black Mountain beyond its middling altitude.

Each of Northeastern Oregon's major ranges — and many ofits minor ones — are

visible kom the top.

Spring or early summer is an ideal time to hike to the crestbecause there' sstillsnow on the more distant peaks, such as Strawberry Mountain to the southwest and the Wallowas to the northeast.

By mid-summer the scarcity of snow, combined with summer's heat haze, turns even those formidable mountains into less photogenic blue-gray smudges on the horizon.

Although there are no official hiking trails on Black Mountain, there are relatively easy, and short, cross-

countryroutes on both the north and south flanks.

The whole of the mountain is public land.

The hikingroute on the south side follows a Forest Service road thatisopen but doescrossa sm allsection of private property,sobesureto stay on the road.

Both routes start kom the Black Mountain Road, Forest Road 1145.

To get there kom Baker City, drive Highway 7 toward Sumpter about 16 miles.

ENTERPRISE — Spring Chinook fishing in NortheastOregon kicked off Saturday with the opening of the upper Snake River to salmon fishing. It is the first of several Chinook fisheries expected to open later this spring.

The upper Snake River is open to sport fishing seven days a weekkom Dug Bar Boat Ramp to the deadline below Hells Canyon Dam. The fishery will remain open until a notice of closure is announced. The daily bag limit is four adipose fin-clipped spring Chinook salmon, adult and jacks, per day. No more than two can be an adult salmon more than 24-inches long. Anglers must stop fishing for salmon for the day when they have kept four jack salmon, equal to or less than 24-inches long, or two adult salmon, whichever comes first. Only barbless hooks may be used. Anglers are reminded to consult the 2015 Oregon Sport Fishing Regulati ons forotherapplicable regulations.

Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and Idaho Fishand Game fi shery managers, who co-manage the upper Snake River fishery anticipate more than 2,000 hatchery adult salmon will return to the

base of Hells Canyon Dam. "However, as we track Columbia and Snake River dam counts during the early part of the return, we think the numbers might be much better than our pre-seasonprojections,"Jeff Yanke, ODFW district fish biologist in Enterprise, said.

Managers are also monitoring early season returns of Chinook salmon destined for the Grande Ronde and Imnaha river basins.

"Based on our pre-season projecti ons,we're also planning for fisheries in Lookingglass Creek and the Wallowa and Imnaha rivers," Yanke said.

Oregonand Washington managers also will consider opening the lower Grande Ronde River for the second time in recent history, Yanke said.

Last year's test fishery was blown out by unexpect-

edly high flows.

Setting salmon season in Northeast Oregon has been helped by the use of real-time detections of fish as they make their way up the Columbia and Snake rivers. According to Yanke, electronic tags in the fish and corresponding tag readersatthe dam allow managers to track not just the number but the final SeeChinooklPage 2C

BRIEFLY Ladd Marsh Bird Festival

set for next weekend The 10th annual Ladd Marsh Bird Festival will take place May 15-17 at the Ladd Marsh Wildlife Area in La Grande.

The kee event, marketed as "a celebrationofbirds,birding and the amazingphenomenon ofmigration," has several features on deck for the weekend event.

Among the featured activities are: • "Great Gray Owls," a presentation put on by Harry Fuller.

• Bird-viewing sites.

•H elpprovided for novice and beginning bird watchers.

• Activities for kids.

• An art display and artwork done on site by Plein Air artists.

• Field trips both on site at Ladd Marsh and off site.

ODFW trucking

spring Chinook Spring Chinook salmon struggling to reach spawning grounds will be transported from Threemile Dam on the Umatilla River to the upper watershed — a move that will detour fish around the popular upper Umatilla River fishery.

"Low water levels and high water temperatures can have tragic consequences for spring

Chinook migrating to their natal waters," Bill Duke, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife fish biologist in Pendleton, said.

"To ensure these Chinook reach critical holding and spawning areas, we will begin trucking them from the dam beginning this week."

According to Duke, it is not unusual for the agency to transport spring Chinook when late spring water flows decline and water temperaturesincrease.

"Usually we're transporting these fish in early June, near the end of the run," he said. "This year, with low water levels, we're transporting them a month earlier, near the beginning of the run."

The upper river from Threemile Dam upstream to the lower reservation boundary upstream of the Highway 11 bridge in Pendleton, will remain open to fishing, as some fish released upstream may drop back into the upper river fishery area.

"We realize this will have quite an impact on the upper river fishery, but consider this action necessary to ensure that fish reach the spawning grounds," Duke said.

The area downstream of Threemile Dam will remain open until June 8, or until the harvest quota is reached, whichever comes first.

The quota is based on an estimated adult return of 3,500 fish and the numbers reaching Threemile Dam.

Summer camp volunteers wanted

EOU climbing wall hours increase

The Umatilla National Forest wants volunteers for the summer to serve as campground hosts at Bull Prairie Lake, Olive Lake and North Fork John Day Campgrounds.

The duties of a camp host includegreeting campers, providing information on the surrounding areasofthe camp and visiting with campers to make them feel at home. Hosts will also be responsiblefor cleaning up aftercampers, restocking supplies, cleaning and maintaining restrooms and performing minor maintenance as necessary. They generally will be expectedto seta good example for campers of expected behavior at the campgrounds.

Individuals or couples can apply, and it' sa greatway for a retiree to spend the summer in a picturesque setting.

Those who apply must supply their own tent, camper or motorhome. Hosts willbe provided a campsite away from the main campground entryway.

A food allowance and propane are offered, and vehicle mileage associated with hosting is reimbursed.

To apply for Bull Prairie, contact Cindi Doherty at the Heppner Ranger District at 541-676-2111.

To apply for Olive Lake or North Fork John Day, contact Janel Lacey at the North Fork John Day Ranger District at 541-427-5394.

Those interested in taking part will meet at the Baker Truck Corral.

The group will clean the fivecorners split trail to Sumpter. The total area cleaned depends on how many people participate.

TO DO LIST

ODFW hosting local fishery meetings

Union County:Focus on game-rich areas with long ridgelines or saddles that cats typically travel. Setting up downwind of a deer or elk killed by a cougar can be productive.

Nonresident hunters can include a cougar tag with others tags for $14.50. Att cougars taken must be checked in within 10 days of harvest; call for an appointment before check in.

Baker County:Hunters should target areas with high concentrations of deer and elk. Setting up on a fresh kill or using distress calls can all be productive techniques.

Hunters are required to check in the hide of any cougar taken, with skull and proof of sex attached.

Wallowa County:Most lions are taken incidental to other hunting; however, calling with fawn bleat, or locating a cougar kill and waiting for a cat to return are often successful techniques.

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife will host a third local meeting next week as it seeks public input on its plan to use rotenone to help remove unwanted fish from arealakesand ponds.The meet ing will be held at 5:30 p.m. May 14 at Blue Mountain Conference Center.

ONTARIO — Zebra mussels were discovered last month on a boat at the Ontario boat inspection station. The boat being hauled from Lake Erie in Ohio is the first vessel of the 2015 inspection season found to be infested with the invasive mussels. The station opened in March.

The commercial driver hauling the Ohio watercraft pulled in for inspection. Motorists hauling boats in Oregon are required to stop at inspection stations to have their watercraft checked for aquatic invasive species under a 2011 Oregon law. Failure to stop at an inspection station could result in a $110 fine.

The boat had amoderate number ofadult Zebra mussels around the propeller shaft and under the stern in the drain plug area. It was decontaminated at the inspection station with high-pressure and hot water.

'The driver did the right thing by pulling overtohave theboatinspected.Boatowners need to always practice 'Clean, Drain, Dry' before launching their boat to keep invasive mussels and other aquatic invasive species out of Oregon and the Pacific Northwest," Rick Boatner, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife invasive species coordinator, said."Zebra and quagga mussels have caused billions in economic damage around the U.S., and we don't want to have the same kinds of problems they create here in the Pacific Northwest."

"These early run real-time detections allow us to set seasons with some confidence that the fish are on their way," Yanke said.

This year's data also suggests salmon anglers may be hitting the water earlier this year, Yanke said. Early-returning Idaho salmon stocks appear to be moving through the Columbia and Snake rivers at much faster pace than usual. As a result, Oregon fishery managers plan to open tributary fisheries a few weeks earlier than usual.

For example, Tim Bailey, La Grande district fish biologist, is hoping to open the hmkingglass Creek fishery as early as May 23.

"Lookingglass Creek typically offers Northeast Oregon's earliest tributary fisheryforspringers,"Bailey said.

Yanke hopestoopen the Imnaha and

According to the Columbia Basin Bulletin, the Pacific Northwest, including Alaska and the Canadian provinces of British Columbia and Alberta, is the "only place on the continent" unaffected by the zebra and quagga mussel invasions that have devastated ecosystems and local economies.

"Barring any unforeseen changes to our Chinook run, I expect to announce the upcoming seasons within the next two weeks," Yanke said.

W hile the upper Snake River fishery opened last weekend, it might be a few weeks before anglers start catching fish. According to Yanke, only a handful of Chinook salmon were harvested in the Idaho's Clearwater River during its opening weekend, though catch rates have recently increased. ''We expect the catch rates to pick up in the upperSnake around mid-May,"he said.

But he cautions that several factors, including water flow and temperatures, affect catch rates each year.

A physical education teacher for more than 30 years, Kaleo Renstrom has asked a lot ofher knees.

After a dozen years of knee pain, surgeries and injections thatno longer providerelief, Renstrom, a PE teacher at Juniper Elementary in Bend, decided last year it was finally time to have them both replaced.

"It's been really tough movingaround the gym," said Renstrom, 55."Being a physical education teacher, you want to be moving with your kids, you don't want to be sitting in a chair."

Her left knee was replaced in October at St. Charles Bend, and she wanted to have the same surgeon, Dr. Knute Buehler, replace the right one in June, when school would be out for the summer.

She recently learned it w ouldcostwellover $20,000 to have the second surgery done at St. Charles.

That's because the Oregon Educators Benefit Board, which provides health insurance for the roughly 150,000 public education employees in the state, including teachers, stafFmembers and their dependents, recentl y placed a cap on the facility costs its policy covers for hip and knee replacements. Members are on their own for anything above that.

Eleven hospitals in Oregon providethe serviceator

below the new $25,000 cap, including St. Alphonsus Medical Center-Baker City, and Grande Ronde Hospital.

St. Charles, by contrast, charges more than double that price. That means any of the nearly 12,000 OEBB members in Central Oregon who need hip or knee replacements would need to travelatleast2'/2hours to have these services done if they hope to avoid paying

Eric Adams, left, with his daughter, Natalia, and his wife, Lee. Eric underwent a kidney transplant surgery Dec. 1, 2014.

• Donor chain at OHSU leads to a life-saving kidney transplant for Eric Adams of La Grande

By Tiish Yerges ForWesCom News Service

Eric Adams, 36, of La Grande just received his stamp of good health after a follow-up biopsy ofhis newly transplanted kidneythanks to an internal living donor chain that developed at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland.

It's been nearly a 4-year journey since the young family man was first rushed to the Grande Ronde Hospital with renal failure.

For 3V2 years of that period, he was tied to a rigid schedule of dialysis appointments, three times a week, five hours each time.

"I couldn't really go anywhere far from home because I had to be nearby for kidney dialysis treatments," said Adams."I was working at Northwood Manufacturing at the time and trying to save my job. In the middle of all this, my wife gave birth to our little girl, Natalia, who was two months' premature. I was the only one workingin my family, so I had to keep going. I had a family to support."

Between Adams' dialysis treatments and traveling back and forth to Boise for 2V2 months to see their hospitalized baby, Adams had to quit his job in August 2012. It was rough goingfora few months, butin November, he found employment at Mega Directline, Inc. of La Grande, where he continues to work today.

Of course, Adams was placed on a long list of patients who were waiting for a kidney transplant.

Among them were two other patients, whose lives intersected like one domino tumbling into another until it finally reached Adams.

"My transplant coordinator called me two months before Thanksgiving (2014l and informed me that there was a living donor, and I was number ten on the list that could possibly match up to this donor," said Adams.

"Then she called about a month later and said I was number three on the list. I thought to myself, 'who would say no to a kidney?'

Then on Thanksgiving, she called again and said if I could be there the next day, they would get me set up."

Surgery leaves old kidney in patient's body Dr. David Scott has been the director of kidney transplant at Oregon Health and Science University's Department ofAbdominalTransplant since 2009, and he has performed about 700 kidney transplants as well as liver and pancreas transplants during his career.

The surgical technique for kidney transplants, he said, has remained about the same at OHSU in Portland since Dr. John Barry arrived there in the 1970s. Of course, there have been improvements in surgical equipS cott ment and in techniques to conserve blood loss during surgery, but the basic science behind kidney transplants remains sound and successful.

"Most of the advances in kidney transplants have been on the medical side — better anti-rejection medicines and better medicines to treat viruses," said Scott.oButthe surgical technique has remained relatively unchanged since the first transplant."

At OHSU, a staff surgeon and a resident surgeon work on the patient together in the operating room. An abdominal approach is used because of better accessibility to the blood vessels in the pelvis where the new kidney is connected.

Now thewould-be donor,LoriHennings, decided that if she was willing to become her husband's donor, she could be someone else's donor too. That someone else was Wendy Brown, and she received her kidney transplant. The would-be donor Ryan Brown then decided to become a donor to — Eric Adams, who had a kidney someone else on the waiting list, and he transplant on Dec. 1,2014 turned out to be a match for Adams.

Vixen Radford of the Northeast Oregon Network, or NEON, said a federal grantis fundingThe Pathways Community Hub program that links members of the community with community health workers.

For those who qualily, a community health worker can help someone with high bloodpressure,heartconditions,diabetes or obesity find the care they need.

Eric Griffith, Pathways Community Hub coordinator for NEON, said the pmgram helps adults with chronic conditions.

"Community health workers help people get through barriers to being healthy," Griffith said.

Radfordsaid some peoplehavehealth insurance for the first time and don't know how to use it or worse yet, they are not usingit.

'They've never had health insurance and don't know how the system works. We are working to try and help folks understand that process.

"Our goal is to eventually have an easyto-breakdown outline of the coverage that hits the main points — 'what do I do and where do I go?o Griffith said.

The Oregon HealthAuthority has a 70-page handbook available online, but Griffith thinks itis daunting.

"People are so busy and overwhelmed they won'tread that. We we want to make sure we make it easy for them," Griffith sald.

He said itis also important that care receivers see the material more than once.

Was it a heinous crime? Or a terrible accident?

The jury is still out, these 70 years later.

The incident occurred late on the evening of Sept. 28, 1945.

According to the La Grande Evening Observer, three couples were setting

up camp in the Blue Mountains, not too far beyond Fox Hill, about five miles north of La Grande.

The much anticipated deer hunting season was just hours away.

They pitched their tents, built a campfire, cooked and enjoyed an eveningmeal.They were in high spirits overthe prospectsofbeginning deer hunting the next morning, the opening day of the season, hoping to get a trophy buck and, more importantly, venison for the treezer.

At about 10 p.m., the gmup was gatheredamund aroaring campfire.

This nine-week series will take readers through 11 cases of homicides and disappearances.

3ama Harms Harms, a 19-year-old assistant manager and former college student, was found slain in her downtown La Grande apartment in October 1995.

April 10:

Leona Kinsey Leona Kinsey, a 45-year-old mother who ran a local landscaping business, disappeared from La Grande in October 1999 without a trace, and today few — if any — traces have been found.

n the distant woods, a grouse beats the springtime drums.

Wood violets bloom. Wind sighs through the towering crowns of ponderosa pines.

Milo Hibbert guides visitors to the site of the hunting camp shooting on private land five miles north of La Grande. The meadow sits close to Spring Under the Log and is near the headwaters of Eaton Creek. That stream runs into Five Point Creek, named for five creeks that come together, not a massive mule deer buck.

Eventually, Five Point Creek, after a long descent off the mountains, dumps into the Grande Ronde River several miles west of La Grande along Interstate 84.

"They were here at Spring Under the Log because of the water," Hibbert said."It's a great jumping-off point for hunting."

His father, Leo "Eugene" Hibbert, bought the property in the late 1940s, several years after Helen Elizabeth Murchison Lovely was killed in 1945 the night before hunting season.

Any old-timer who had any association with Fox Hill knew the story."

Hibbert first saw the newspaper article documenting the shooting by a fortuitous accident. His sister-in-law, Cheryl "Cheri" Hibbert, of La Grande, worked at the hospital and had a co-worker who knew ofher interest in the story.

"One ofher fiiend's husband was remodeling a house," Milo Hibbert said."In the walls, he found the old La Grande Evening Observer from Sept. 29, 1945, among many other newspapers. She had heard Cheri talk about the story. I was surprised that the basic ingredients of the story I had heard as 10th-hand folklore were pretty accurate."

"It was in either Union or La Grande," she said."They were taking down walls and found them stuffed with newspapers for insulation. He brought them home, and we were looking through them and just happened to find this story. It was very interesting because of the folklore we had heardfrom having that property.

To read the article was really cool."

Cheri said they had the article copied.

"I gave it to all the family members," she said.

Milo Hibbert paints a picture of a different life in the mid-1940s. The property then was private but not fenced significantly.

"It was commonly used by everyone and a popular area where people went hunting," Hibbert said.

Hibbert said interest in the story continues to be avid to this day.

"I've been up here working on the mountain, building fence or something, and occasionally people will stop by and tell me their version of the story," he said."Everybody's got a theory. Was it intentional? Was it an accident? Was it somebody being careless?

We don'thave a clue."

T epainoflosingamo ernever goesaway ts. Frank Lovely Dies of Gun Wound Received in Camp on Fox Hill," the headline in the La Grande Evening Observer from Sept.

29, 1945, blared.

It was a different time.

Franklin Roosevelt, serving his unprecedented fourth term as president, had died the previous April. In May, a Japanese balloon bomb killed five children and a grown woman when it landed near Bly. The atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, only seven weeks earlier than the shooting on Fox Hill, had led to the end of World War II. Newspapers in those days were different, too. They referred to women by their husband's names. When I got the assignment to try to put together details on the Cold Case of"Mrs. Frank Lovely," like so often happens in life, I was stumped on how to proceed.

But newspaper people arepersistent.W ith good detective work by my editors, utilizing modern tools like the Internet, we finally figuredout who a daughter might be. We found obituary recordsforthe Observer from the late 1980s detailing the death of Frank Lovely, and proceeded to get a phone number of Carol Mattson,

FROMTHE , REPORTER JEFF PETERSEN the daughter of the victim, Helen Elizabeth Murchison Lovely.

After getting my courage up, I called the number.

It was disconnected or no longer in service. Talk about disappointment. I was beginning to think I would find no one totalk to aboutthiscase.

Carol Mattson had also been on Facebook, but the postings were several years old. I tried to reach her in that manner but got no response.

But editors don'tgive up. They suggested looking through the Observer circulat ion database to see ifaphone number could be obtained there.

I tried the phone again, with great trepidation. I didn't want to invade anyone's privacy. Losing a family member in any manner can be traumatic. I couldn't imagine how rldflcult it would be toloseam other toa shooting.

I was thinking about what if this had happened to my own mother. I'd miss the birthday parties, the cakeshaped like arabbit she baked and decorated for Easter, listening to her play piano at church. I'd have m issed the trip to Crater Lake where we camped in

the back of a station wagon and in the middle of the night bears invaded the nearby garbage cans. I'd have missed, after growing up, talking on the phone and having someone who understoodthe challenges Ifaced.

But I knew everyone has a story to tell. And I knew the Cold Case series might be helpful forthe survivorsas they pursued some closure, even seven decades later.

Little did I know, Mattson was waiting for and even anticipating my call. She had read about the Cold Case series in a column by my editor and publisher, Andrew Cutler, and had considered calling us. She wanted to talk about the case. But she thought maybe it was too long ago. Maybe no one would be interested in the story.

When reached on the phone, Mattson was eager to talk. When we met later at her country house south of Island City, she said she wanted people to remember

I

the lively, patient, loving person her mother was.

But that's not all. She also wanted the person who pulledthe trigger,ifhe orshe is still alive, which is no sure bet, togeta good look ather mother and see what they took away from a 4-year-old little girl.

The thought that a 70-year-ol d crime could possibly be solved, at this late date, is extremely unlikely.

Mattson knows this.

Still, she sometimes wonders what her life might have been like had her mother not been gunned down all those years ago. Mother's Days, like the one coming up this Sunday, are never quite the same. Sure, she had other mother figures that showered her with love, but there was always something missing, a hole in her heart, and Mother's Days, when everyone else seems to be celebrating their mothers, must have been painful.

Sitting down with Mattson, at her home on

I

. I

Buchanan Lane, one could sense the grief she went through. For years after the death she went through dark times, and it wasn't until she reached her teens that the sun shone again.

I was happy to hear that she had pulled her life together and had happy, prosperous times with her husband, Dale. You could see the pride in her eyes when she talked about her four children and their good times togetheras afam il y involved in Little League and softball games or 4-H and FFA events.

Some people may say it's importanttoforgive and forget. But it's very hard to forgivethe perpetrators of crimes. And it's impossible to forget.

Mattson, although a sweet woman with a fiiendly disposit ion,isnotaboutforgiveness. She still hates the person who killed her mother and hopes he or she is alive to see what a beautiful person their idiotic act claimed.

Helen Elizabeth Murchison Lovely was killed at a hunting camp about five miles north of La Grande.

They were sitting on seats taken out of the car, and were contemplating whether to stay up and talk or to retjre to their

sleeping bags.

Just then, a car approached down the forest road from the direction of Fox Hill. According to witnesses, the"l ong" car stopped about 160 yards away with only a spotlight for illumination.

Eyewitnesses Leo Evans and Edgar Denton told the sherifFand state police later that the spotlight had picked out their camp stove and tents.

Then it swung on Helen Lovely, who had her right wrist clasped in her left hand. In the newspaper, in the story that followed, she was known as only Mrs. Frank Lovely.

Women in those days were called by their husband's names in newspapers.

'They definitely played the light on everybody, but why they settled on her I don't know," Mattson said."Maybe it was kids out being stupid and shooting. I don't think it was an accident. Maybe if they had not pointed at a specific individual I'd think differently, but I think they shot at a specific person."

Mattson said she has a hard time believing it was an accident.

She believesthere is no way, when all those people were sitting around a campfire, that a person, getting a head start on the season, could possibly think they were shooting at a deer.

"I don't know if she or daddy was targeted," Mattson said.

Perhaps no one will ever know.

A shot rang out from a large caliber weapon, and Helen Lovely, 28, was hit.

She screamed and fell to the ground. The bullet had pierced her left index finger, her left thumb and right wrist and then went into her abdomen and through her body, emerging near the left kidney.

Evans sprinted after the car, hoping to catch those responsible. But he had to be careful to stay out of the spotlight so he would not also be shot. Before he could reach the car, it backed up, turned around and roared ofF into the night.

"Whoever shot knew they shot at somebody or they wouldn't have been in such a big hurry to get out of there," Mattson said.

Friends rushed Helen Lovely the five miles down the mountain and to the hospital, then located just south of Gangloff Park in northwest La Grande. aWith bumpy roads and old cars and in those panic conditions, it must have seemed to take forever," Mattson said.

Remarkably, Helen remained conscious all the while until she went under anesthetic in surgery at the hospital. Medical stafF said she hadlostalotofblood due to internal wounds.

She soon died.

"She basically bled to death, but they did get her to surgery," Mattson said.

An investigation ensued.

Since the spotlight was in their eyes, none of the members of the hunting party got agood description ofthe suspect car.

The sherifF, Jesse Alden Breshears, investigated that night. He found the campfire still burning vigorously, but there were no clues immediately evident to find theperpetrators.Members of the party said they had no enemies who would gun them down in cold blood and said they thought it was possiblyan accident perpetrated by someone with a nervous triggerfi nger.

Helen Lovely holds her daughter, Carol, who remembers her mother as being an incredibly patient parent who loved her family. gest serving Union County sherifF, serving from 1925 to 1957, returned the next morning. He was hoping to find clues to solve the crime.

Again, he was unable to find any significant evidence that would shed light on the situation. Being that it was the first day ofhunting season, traffic was heavy in the area.

Any tire tracks the suspect car had made were obscured by the many other drivers heading to their favorite deer hunting spots.

The sheriff said he believed the shooting was an accident perpetrated by someone planning to take deer by illegal methods. He said other persons in the car could be considered an accessory to the crime and urged them to come forward with information.

But there were no takers on this offer.

"It would take a lot of legworktofi nd outwho had been up there," said Steve Oliver, who served assherifF of Union County from 1993 to 2005.aYou need to interview people who saw vehicles or saw anything. In hunting season, with all the coming and going, it becomes very diKcult.a The aftermath was painful for the family.

"Back then, they didn't tell kids what was going on," Mattson said."I remember Dad sitting in a chair, crying and saying, 'I got her blood all over my hands."'

Her aunt, Bertha Stanley, herdad'ssister,took the 4-year-ol d to thefuneralparlor.

"She said, 'Kiss her and say goodbye,"' M attson said.

It wasn't for many years that she was able to talk about the incident with her dad because it made him so

sad.

"I asked him, not long beforehe died,in the late 1980s,'Daddy, what happened? Where did this happen?' He took me to where they had camped," Mattson recalled."He showed me where the camp was, where the car came from. He said Uncle Leo chased after the car trying to stay out of the spotlight. There would have been hell to pay if he would have caught him because Uncle Leo was a fighter."

Helen, her mother, by contrast, had thepatience of a saint, said Mattson, who was only 4 years old when the accident occurred.

At a time she should have been learning to read or building a play fort or having a tea party, her innocence was torn away.

Mattson, though, still has wonderful memories ofher mom.

"I mostly remember doing naughty things, but my m other never seemed toraise her voic e,"M attson said.

"It was amazing. I remember her fixing pancakes one morning. I didn't want them burnt.

Even though they were golden brown, not burnt, I threw an awful fit. She proceeded to make me more. My own kids, if they had thrown such a fit, certainly wouldn't have got another one. Not a chance."

Another time, at her Aunt Annie and Uncle Leo's, she remembers the kids playing on a flatbed trailer even though they were told not to.

"It was fun to run up and tip it," Mattson said."One time, though, I caught my belly on the trailer and tippeditover and gothurt.

Even then, though, I don't remember getting into trouble."

Like many people in Northeast Oregon, the Lovelys enjoyed being in the mountains and doing such things as picking huckleberriesorgoing camping.

"Every time we went out it seemed as if we had a flat tire on the car," Mattson recalled."Being kids, we were impatient to get to the weenie roast."

Within a few years of the incident, her dad remarried, but that did not make Matt-

while she was working at the A&W. The couple were married in 1960, and the union was blessed with four children, three girls and one boy.

"Not having a mother iafter age 4l hopefully made me a better mother to my three girls and son," Mattson said.

The family moved to their current home in 1964 and were heavily involved in Little League, softball, 4-H and FFA. "For over 50 years we've

lived in this house," Mattson said."Dale delivered freight for 40 years, and I was a homemaker, involved in day care and worked a couple years for Sprouse-Reitz."

Still, for all the good life brings her, Mattson is reminded from time to time about her mother. One is when her 6-year-old great grandchild asks her where her mother is.

"It's diKcult to explain to a child that young," she said.

'There were four grandchildren she never got to meet, eight great-grandchildren and three great-great grandchildren."

Mattson also found out there was a great chance her mother was pregnant when she was shot. She called the hospital, though, and they had norecords to verify that.

With today's technology, the shooting might have been less difficult to solve, said Sgt. Bill Miller of the Union

County SherifF's Office, but it would still be a huge challengeseparatingtheories from facts.

'Trace evidence is extremelyimportant these days but was not sought after in those days," he said."Now you check fibers, dyes, DNA evidence from hair, whatever. You could checkfortire tracks,butif threeorfourothervehicles drove the same path, by the timethosepoliceresponded, thosetrackscould beobliterated. And without cellphones, back then, the time between the shooting and response would be slower."

Alltheseyearslater, Mattson still wonders what exactly happened and who was involved in the crime.

"I often felt guilty about not finding out who did it, but I had no idea how to go about it," she said."But I still want the person who did this, if they are still alive, to see who they killed."

COLD CASES

Mushroommurder trail leads golicelodeadend

By Jeff Petersen The Observer

mushroom gold rush had erupted in Union County in June 1993.

The wild mushrooms that grow in profusion here — the morels and matsutakes — were attracting not only locals heading out to their favorite patchesbut large crews of people of Hispanic and Cambodian descent. These pickers could earn $150 in a dayin the wake of the Chernobyl nuclear accident that had made wild mushrooms scarce in eastern Europe.

More than 1,000 out-ofstate pickers had applied for permits and set up picking operations in Union County.

Competition for prime mushroom picking sites was fierce, and many pickers carried guns, everything kom .22-caliber pistols to assault rifles.

According to Judy West, spokeswoman then for the U.S. Forest Service, mushroom picking was a big business in 1993,"a $5 million industry in Union County alone."

The area north and east of Elgin, in the Blue Mountains, ponderosapine forestintermixed with logging clearings, was prime mushroom picking country. Mushrooms were parti cularly prevalent in areas where overgrowth was logged and then set to fire. The next year, such areas were prime for the picking.

Sheriff Steve Oliver was new to the job that year. And he was in for a huge challenge.

On June 17, on a lonely logging road 30 miles northeast of Elgin, about 10 miles from the Lookingglass Fish Hatchery, high in the mountains, Phay Eng, 22, a commercial mushroom picker kom Raymond, Washington, a small town on the southwest Washington coast, was found murdered.

The man of Cambodian descent had been fixing a flat tire on his 1985 Toyota sedan when he was attacked.

Responding to the crime scene was not easy.

"In these rural counties, when sometimes there is only one deputy and one state trooper on duty, response time to back up somebody can be nearly an hour," Oliver sald.

In the woods far above Elgin, linked by miles of occasionall y rough gravelroads, response time was even more lengthy.

What the officers found when they arrived on scene was not pretty.

"His skull was caved in," Oliver recalled."I went to the autopsy. If I remember it correctly, the doctorsaid he got hit with a tire iron."

Robbery was suspected, of both mushrooms and money, and several people were sought for questioning.

'The Cambodians were verydistrustfulofbanks," Oliver said."Most carried their money in cash or gold jewelry."

His training at the police academy prepared him well, but investigating a homicide was a huge challenge. Oliver designated the Oregon State Police as the lead agency in the investigation. The Union County Major Crime Team as well as the La Grande, Union and Elgin police departments and the Union County District Attorney's office assisted with the investigation.

"At almost the same time, a mausoleum was broken into at the cemetery up on Gekeler," Oliver said."Some of the local witches broke in and stole fingers for amulets.

As a brand new sheriff, it was pretty diKcult to manage all that. At that time, we had only two deputies."

What made the case more difficult, Oliver said, is that most homicides are done by people who know each other.

"The mushroom pickers were just transients in the area, coming here kom both Stockton, California, and Raymond, and there was a language barrier with the Cambodians," Oliver said.

Numerous persons of interest were interviewed as authorities tried to find out what happened.

Oliver also led a search group involving 12 people trying to find am urder weapon or otherclues.Itproved futile.

"All the search and rescue team got was hot and dirty," Oliver said.
