we've had the budget hearings, which were a little bit depressing in terms of what we're looking at in the future with our general fund," said Agency Member Gary Lillard.

'There's no question that Urban Renewal is a process that impacts the general fund. It takes money from the general fund."

Lillard said he still supports Urban Renewal and believes it is the best economic developmenttoolfor the city, but he believes that the agency should look closely at

Six local projects got the OK forfunding from the Urban Renewal Agency Wednesday night.

Movingforward,though, members of the URA indicated they want to revisit how the agency and the Urban Renewal Advisory Commission evaluateprojectproposals.

Prior to voting to approve all six proposed projects at the staff's recommended funding level, agency members began a discussion on the program.

"Since the first time we

"That's what I think it ought to be all about," Lillard said."I think that's something we're going to need to start looking at very, very closely in the future when we look at these projects."

Mayor Steve Clements agreed with the sentiment.

"As Ilook attheprojects before us, with the exception of Hines, if we look solely at additional tax revenue as a consequence, all of them have very extensive, very lengthy payback periods," Clements said, adding that hebelieves See Funding / Page 5A

PORTLAND — President Barack Obama's case for international trade agreements is built on three main arguments: The right trade dealcan create jobs at home, counter China's

economic influence abroad and raise labor and environmental standards by U.S. trading partners.

A visit to Nike headquarters todayallows Obama to address at least two ofthe three.

The giant athletic apparel company is pledgingto create 10,000 jobs in the United States over 10 years with its manufacturing partners if Congress gives Obama"fast-track" trade negotiating authority that ultimately

The company says a TransPacific trade deal would allow it to benefit from lower tariffs on shoes and speed up company investments in footwear manufacturing in the U.S. But the 10,000 jobs would be a smallfraction ofthe overseas workforce Nike relieson for manufacturing. Of Nike's slightly more than 1 million factory contract workers, more than 9 out of

10 are in Asia, with the largest number in low-wage Vietnam.

Nike, with such massive outsourcing of manufacturing, also provides Obama with an opportunity to talk about labor standards he seeks to enforce with trade partners, particularly Vietnam where the U.S. concedesthatworker-rights protections fall short of international standards.

A reminder from his wife of a promise the couple made to each other several years ago persuaded Union Mayor Bill Lindsley to resign his position later this month.

Lindsley, who won a threeway race for his fourth term as mayor in November 2014, plans to announce his retirement to the Union City Council at the end of Monday's meeting at the Union City Hall. The meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m.

"I think I'll make it effective as of May 16," Lindsley said.

Prior to the Lindsleys' move to the Grande Ronde Valley 17 years ago, Bill promised the couple would stay on the east sideofthe statefor 17years, and in return, his wife, Arden, See Lindsley / Page5A

OUR VIEW I

H'EY! YC U C,A,N'T PASg ON THE Ri&HT

invo ve in c eanu Consider being a tourist and driving into any town in Oregon. What is the first thing you see? Dead cars in the front yard? Old refrigerators on the front porch? Junk along the roadside?

Face it. First impressions are important. When you jump o6'the interstate for a bite to eat, or to stay the night, the town can seem welcoming or dangerous, depending on what you first see.

La Grande and Island City residents have a golden opportunity to make their cities shine Saturday.

That's the oKcial spring cleaning day. It's a chance to clean up that basement, garage or front or back yard and dispose ofjunk or clutter that is tiring on your own eyes and also those of passersby. And who doesn't have hazardous wastes, tires, batteries or dead electronic goods sitting around waiting to be hauled away?

From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., residents can roll up their sleeves and get to work. They can get rid of junk, recyclable metals, car batteries, household appliances, reusable furniture, yard debris, tires without rims, hazardous waste items and more at various stations around town. People bringing items to various Dumpsters around town are encouraged to provide a donation to help pay for the service. See the story on page 2A in Wednesday's newspaper for complete details of what can be hauled to each location.

Volunteer groups will also be out picking up litter from roadsides and vacant lots, just in time to make the towns look nice for Mother's Day.

The La Grande and Island City Neighborhood CleanupDay isbeing spearheaded by CarolSummers and Doyle Slater. Their mission is to make the towns look good for the residents, tourists and to showcase the many events coming to the area this summer. As Summers said, "Our communities just want their towns to shine in this gorgeous setting.

We want our town to get out the red carpet."

And why not? Sitting as the crown jewel of the scenic Grande Ronde Valley, the cities of La Grande and Island City need to reflect their majestic surroundings. People need to take pride in cleaning up their own little piece of paradise. Beautification efforts can be done every day, of course, but an event like the cleanup day can be just the catalyst to get major projects done that keep getting put oK La Grande and Island City should be proud to have clean and safe neighborhoods where people can work, play and live.

And Summers and Slater need to be saluted for all their work and effort to bring back the La Grande

and Island City Neighborhood Cleanup Day after a several-year hiatus. Their efforts are making a big difference in our quality oflife.

Special thanks are due to the various businesses involved in the effort, including the Les Schwab Tire Center, Waste Pro, ReStore/Habitat for Humanity, Millers Home Center and B R K Salvage.

Let's have a strong showing of city pride Saturday and get our own homes and our cities looking their best.

ir Elton John, Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire, flew into Washington to testify Wednesday before members of the United States Senate — or, as they might more accurately be described, the Madmen Across the Water.

He had been called before an Appropriati ons subcommittee to speak abouttheimportance offoreign aid, and particularly international AIDS spending. But, as might be expected of a 68-year-old rocker who did a large quantity ofbanned substances in his day, the witnessoccasionally veered offmessage — as whenhe described hislifebefore he took up the cause of AIDS. "My life was completely disordered," Sir Elton, seated to the right of the evangelical minister Rick Warren, told the senators."Iwas a drug addict.Iwas a self -obsessed [bad word foranusj."

On the dais, Sen. Lindsey Graham iR-S.C.1, the subcommittee chairman, and Sen. Patrick Leahy iD-Vt.l, until recentlythepresident protempore of the Senate, could not hide grins.

There were several such unusual moments over the course of two hours: Warren clasping the gay musician's hand and joking about them kissing each other, Graham telling photographers to get"back in your cages," Leahy addressing the gathering on the topic ofhis wife's popularity, and another committee member, Sen. Mark Kirk iR-I11.1, breaking into Spanish. Graham expressedpity forthestenographer.

'Very earthy committee we have here," the chairman said.

The RocketMan's language may have been evensaltierifhehad been told what happened before the hearing. Witnesses and senators alike talked about the crucial importance of foreign aid and

the need to protectitfrom budget cuts.

But the evening before, a majority of senators — including Graham — voted to approveabudget resolution thatcuts foreign aid.

Democrats complain that the Republican-authored budget resolution for fiscal 2016 cuts $1.1 billion from foreign aidnext year and $47 billion over 10 years. President Obama had requested an increase from the current level of just over$50 billion.Members ofthepanel sidestepped this awkward situation, instead vowing to keep the foreign-aid budget from falling victim to even larger cuts that would have occurred under automatic "sequestration" rules. A Graham spokesman said the foreign-aid cut would have been deeper if not for an amendment Graham secured.

Graham said foreign-aid spending "isthe smartest use offederaldollars of any place within the federal government." He vowed to make sure "we not abandon this account at a time when we'resoclose to achieving the purposes of this account, which is to change the world in a positive fashion."

Sir Elton, in rose-colored sunglasses and wearing a purple polka-dot tie to liven up his business suit, was pitch perfect on this point.'There is a window of opportunity before us, a window through which we can very dearly see the end ofAIDS within my lifetime. We cannot aflbrd to let the window close," he told the senators.

'This is the most powerful legislative body in the world, and this Congress indeed has the power to end AIDS." But on Wednesday, the powerful legis-

Leahy stood in the hallway with camera-totingtouristsand staffers, waiting for the singer to arrive."Sir Elton," the Democrat said in his opening statement, "we've known each other a number of years."

Graham tried to one-up Leahy."I'd like to mention that Bono could not be here today," he said."He's had a very difflcult accident.... He's communicated with me several times regretting not being able to be here." iBono sang Tuesday at the funeral for David Goldberg in California.)

But Leahy was not to be outdone.

"Can I just interject there?" he asked. ''When I called him [Bonoj after his accident — he was back in Dublin — he said the fellow members of the band said it's a good thing he was wearing his helmet so he didn't damage the sidewalks of New York."

Graham, who posed for photos with Sir Elton after the hearing, was awed just by the simple act of the witness finishing his statement in the allotted minutes."Ended right on time — it's amazing!" Graham said.

Sir Elton, the aging pop star causing all this swooning, waxed philosophic about America i'This country gave everythingto me as aprofessional musician, and it's given everything to me as a human being"), the pope ihe's a fanl, and his belief that Jesus "would be appalled attheway people arebeing stigmatized" today if they have AIDS. Graham thought the performance a triumph."After this, how would you like to vote against this account? What would you say?" he asked.

Graham shouldknow. Only hours earlier, he and his Senate colleagues cast just such a vote.

Council votes to extend city's marijuana moratorium

After some discussion on the matter, District Manager Robert Strope turned the discussion back to the agenda item of allocating funding.

The agency voted unanimously to fund the projects as recommended by staf. Agency Members Troy Pointer and John Lackey recused themselves from the vote due to conflicts of interest, and Justin Rock was absent.

OBAMA Continued from Page1A with in the Trans-Pacific talks, seven have manufacturers that contract with Nike for shoes or apparel.

Still, Obama's visit to Oregon has created a backlash. Nike represents what many liberal groups and labor unions criticize about tradedeals:thepotentialfor shifting U.S. jobs to other countries with cheap labor and few worker protections.

What's more, Nike has had to overcome a bad image over itsforeign contractors.

The La Grande City Council on Wednesday voted unanimously to extend the city's moratorium on marijuana facilities as the city works on a correction plan for how to regulate the facilities.

The council also had a first reading of an updated parks rules ordinance. The new ordinance clarifies language and bans the use of tobacco and other "herbaceous" materials in city parks. It additionally includes trespass language making it easier for law enforcement to ban people from park property. A second reading and vote on the ordinance will take place June 3 with rules slated to go into effect 30 days later, assuming the vote is in favor of the ordinance.

City Manager Robert Strope also announced Wednesday thatTroy Berglund, the grocer behind Market Place Family Foods, has secured his Small Business Administration loan. The city has approved $500,000 in funding in a grant/loan for the grocery store project, with $100,000 set to be disbursed up front for U.S. Bank to use for liquidity purposes.

Outside a Democratic Party fundraiser Thursday night, more than 200 protestersgreeted the president's arrival with chants of: "Hey, hey, ho, ho, fast track has got to go." Under the authority Obama wants, Congress could accept or reject a trade agreement, but not amend it.

Two decades ago, Nike came under heavy criticism foritsuseofforeign sweatshops, including numerous reports of child labor, low wages and poor working conditions.

Under intense public pressure, Nike improved

''When me and the wife got married in 1997 I just said,'OK, I'll come over here' because, I moved her over there for one winter and she kinda got clauslrophobia," Lindsley said.

'Three or four months ago, she said, You know, this is the 17th year. Are we going to do it or not?'And I said, 'Well, golly, I guess we could go over there and look.' So we ended up going to the Washington side up on the peninsula."

Lindsley, 74, is a retired pulp mill worker and a former saw shop owner in Union. He and Arden moved to Union in 1999 after spending some time in Adams, northeast of Pendleton.

Last November Lindsley received42.45 percent ofthe voteto beatchallengers Coy Wilde and Roger Clark for the Union mayor's position.

Lindsley was also involved in a November write-in campaign for Position 2 for the Union County Commission, a race he lost to incumbent Steve McClure.

Lindsley said he's not sure whether he would have went after a fourth term as mayor ifhis wife had mentioned, before the election, their moving back to the coast.

"I don't know. I'll be honest with you because I just didn't really give it a thought about going back at that time," he said."I felt ifthere had been away I could have upset iMcClurel, then that would have been four more years."

"I'd like to think in the past we as a council and mayor have done a fair number of things for Union," he said.'There isn't really any animosity or anything.

It's just a lifestyle change."

Lindsley said he has alreadymade severaltrips to the Warrenton area to hunt for a new home, which he was able to find fairly quickly, and to begin moving the family's items. aWe're basically hauling everythingto a storage unit," Lindsley said.

The Lindsleys' home in Union has already been soldand isexpected to close next week, Lindsley said. aWe went over to the Washington side up on the peninsula and some people told us there were houses up in that area. We looked at five or six of them before we finally got one," he said.

"And we've just been fortunate that we were able to sell everything we wanted to sell and the house and everything."

Despite closingthedoor on his political career in Union County, he said there is always a chance he could return to small-town politics once he's settled in on the coast.

"I'm not going to say that I won't get stupid over there, too, and stick my foot in the water," he said.aBut I'm praying I don't."

Oregonians who think Kate Brown isthestate'ssecond female governor need to think again.

Richard Roth, the author of four history booksaboutthe Grande Ronde Valley, hasfound evidence indicating thatbefore Brown was sworn in as governor on Feb. 18, and before Barbara Roberts, who led the state fmm 1991 to 1995, there was Camlyn Shelton, a woman who grew up in Union. Shelton headed the state for about two days in early March 1909.

"She was the first female governor of the state," Roth said.

Roth discovered this while doing researchforthesecond edition ofhis book'The Central Railroad of Oregon — Oregon's Blue Mountain Route."

The finding came as a complete shock to the author.

"It sure was a surprise," said Roth, who grew up at Hot Lake and now lives in Orting, Washington.

Roth laughs when discussing how he was diverted from his local railroad history research to learn about Shelton.

"From the mainstream ofhistory a sidestream pops up,"he said.

Roth explains in a new addition to his book that Camlyn Shelton grew upin Union where she and her siblings became the wards ofrailmad investor JW. Shelton after their parents died. Camlyn Shelton laterserved asthesecretaryforOregon's 11th governor, George E. Chamberlain, who led the state fmm 1903 to 1909.

Chamberlain was elected to the US. Senate in 1908 and vacated his position as governor on Mamh 1, 1909, so that he could leave for Washington, D.C., for a senate swearing in ceremony.

Frank W. Benson, Oregon's incoming governor, was then sick and could not take the oath of offrce. This left Shelton in charge for two or three days until Benson could be sworn in.

'The office was turned over to her. It was the practical thing to do," Roth said.

This development was well covered in Oregon's newspapers.

"Several articles called her the governor or governess," Roth said.

"I really love the community of Imbler, and the support of the staffhas been amazing," Burton said."I have learned a lot because I have had awesome people around me."

BAKER CITY — The Wallowa-Whitman National Forest welcomes Charles T. "Chuck" Oliver as deputy forest supervisor.

"I am excited about the opportunity to build relationships that await me in Baker City," said Oliver, who officially reported for duty Wednesday.

His first experiences in the Northwest were childhood family camping trips to visit relatives in Lewiston, Idaho, and Clarkston, Washington.

"I'm looking forward to Hells Canyon, the Snake River andrafting and exploring new territory and mountain bike trails," Oliver said.

Most recently, Oliver was a district ranger on the Bitterroot National Forest in Darby, Montana.

"I look forward to having Chuck coming to the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest and continuing to work with communities on issues important to rural Oregon," Wallowa-Whitman Forest Supervisor Tom Montoya said.

Oliver earned hisbachelor's degree in rangeland management and his master's in agricultural economics at New

Mexico State University. He then worked as a range conservationist on the Oliver Bu t t e Ranger District ofthe Deerlodge National Forest.

During his tenure on the Reserve Ranger District on the Gila National Forest in the 1990s, he was a charter member of the Catron County Citizen group, one of the first nationally recognized collaboratives.

"Chuck brings a wealth of experience in working with a broadspectrum ofpublicson natural resource management issues. His willingness to seek resolution on complex and sometimes contmversial issues is welcomed," Montoya said.

In April 2000, Oliver became adistrictranger on the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest and Thunder Basin National Grassland, where he worked extensively with conservation partners.

For the past 10 years he has worked on the Bitterroot N ational Forest,re-establishing a forest timber sale program andmanaging the most complex fire system on the forest.

More than 250 gmups fmm across the countryjoined Sens. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and MikeCrapo,R-Idaho,to express support for passing the Wildfire Disaster FundingAct to ensure vital resources in the fight against catastmphic wildfires in the West ahead of this year's fire season.

The 261 organizations, including the Western Governors'Association, The Nature Conservancy and the National Rifle Association, wrotetoall535 members

oftheU.S.Senate and the House of Representatives to show the importance of passing the bill.

"Fireseason isalmost here, and for Oregonians and others in the West, who know that wildfires are no less destructive than other natural disasters, it's past time to end the destructivecycleofplaying catch-up on wildfire funding,"Wyden said."I'm glad to have these groups standing with Sen. Crapo and me as we continue to push for our fix to address these wildfires beforethey start."

Wyden and Crapo reintro-

duced the Wildfire Disaster Funding Act on Jan. 22.

The bill ends the cycle of underfundingfire suppression, which currently forces federal agencies to steal fmm fire prevention just to put out fires. Instead, Wyden and Crapo's bill will end this so-called"fire borrowing" by funding the largest wildfires fmm a similar disaster account used to fund other natural disasters. The Interior Department and theForestServiceestimate these fires — about 1 percent — consume 30 percent of firefighting budgets.

In March, Wyden and Crapo secured language in the Senate budget to allow a funding cap adjustment that has prevented agencies fmm treating wildfires as natural disasters under the budget.

The Wildfire Disaster Funding Act would move any fire suppression spending above 70 percentofthe 10-year average to a disaster funding account that is separate fmm Forest Service and Interior budgets. The bill now has 14 bipartisan cosponsors in the Senate, and 79representati ves havesigned on to the House version.

Hiker's Tumalo Falls vandalism story goes viral

By Dylan J. Darling WesCom News Serwce

Brett Nelson of Prineville just wanted to make a point about apparent vandalismhe 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 f'riend, Lyle Sweeney, 53, of San Francisco, and a Facebook post by Nelson, 41, has turned into a national story as people 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 usingblack huntingknives into the metal raiRgon an overlook downstream ofTumalo Falls.

Nelson said the manresponded to his asking them to stop withrudeness.

Sweeney took the photo after telling the man and the kids that what they were doing was a federaloffense.

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. ''We 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.

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 graffiti in caves.

Kern said she was not surprised to 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."

Elizabeth Herbes has worn many differenthats— orrather,spikesfor the Union track and field team this spring.

Herbes, a junior sprinter and jumper for the Bobcats, has competedin 10different events atsome point this spring, and has taken first as anindividual or aspartofa team in six of those 10 events.

When narrowed down to events she has participated in more than once, that ratio improves to five out of six.

That versatility has not only resulted in high individual marksshe currently ranks in the top five in the state in four different events — but makesher a key partofwhy Union is a contender for the 2A state championship.

"She's been just a huge part of our team.She made us from a good team to a title contender at state," Union

head coach Jay Blackburn said.

The speedster has already racked up wins in each of the 100-, 200- and 400-meterracesthisspring,settinga personal mark in her 100 win at the ICUE meet in Elgin (12.69 seconds).

Meanwhile, her times of 26.80 in the 200 and 1:00.15 in the 400 are on the vergeofher personal bestsfrom a year ago.

As a jumper, she has won both times she has participated in the triple jump, setting her PR both times — most recently with a jump of 34 feet, 8 inches at Grant Union.

She's also been the anchor ofboth relay teams for the Bobcats this year, helping them to three wins and four second-place finishes combined in those races.

Work and preparation Working on the family farm and competing in the USA Track & Field Junior Olympics have been instrumental to getting Herbes to the point

she is at. She was a competitor in the Junior Olympics from sixth grade until early in her high school career.

She actually qualified for nationals one year, but was unable to go because the national meet was during haying season.

The work ethic learned building fence, bucking bales and working cattle, blended with the opportunity to compete in track for years and the fact that track success is pretty much inher blood made Herbes a welcome asset to the Bobcats when the family moved to Union from Athena in time for the 2014 track season.

"A lot of that comes from working on a ranch my whole life, because you build up that strength and endurance. There's hills to hike to build fence. You get used to exerting yourself to some extent," she said.

"It's (also) just all the training I've had over the years has helped bring See Herbes/Page 10A

NEW YORK — Alex Rodriguez passed Willie Mays for fourth place on the career homer list, connecting for No. 661 Thursday night an at-bat after he was robbed of the milestone drive by a leaping catch.

The New York Yankees star hit a liner off Baltimore's Chris Tillman into a secure area just to the left of Monument Park in center field in the third inning. A-Rod sent a soaring shot in the first that Delmon Young caught by reaching over the top of the wall in right field.

"Nobody will ever pass Willie Mays," Rodriguez said after the Yankees beat the Orioles 4-3."I talked about him being my father's favorite player. There's only one Willie Mays.

Not only what he did on the field but what he meant off the field. He's a legend and he's also a role model for all of us."

Next up: Babe Ruth at 714 home runs.

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.

For more information about the event, visit www. dfw.state.or.us, www.fiiendsofl addmarsh.org or contact Cathy Nowak at 541-9634954.

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.

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.

The conference center is located at 40412th St. in La Grande.

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.

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. The U.S. Geological Survey has a quagga and zebra mussel distribution map on its website.

Inspectors are looking for aquatic plants and New Zealand mudsnails.

ODFW recommends boat owners clean the boat completely, pull off any plant material, animals or mud, completely drain any areas that could hold standing water by pulling all drainplugs and allow theboatto dry before launching again.

After he retired from the state, Hires was freelance writing when he heard about a summer interpretive position with the Forest Service at Mount St. Helens Volcanic National Monument.

"My first job with the DNR was based out of Cougar. I knew the area. They hired me, and I fell in love with being a ranger."

With a few years of interpretiveexperience on Hires post-retirement resume, Yellowstone National Park offered him the job oflead interpretiveranger forthe winter season.

"That was a dream of mine, to be in Yellowstone in winter, and to get paid for it," he said.

"I told my wife about the job after I said yes."

"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.

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.

'The morefi equency they areexposed to this material the more aware and better understandingthey will have," Griffith sald.

Radford said NEON informationis available at Community Connection, insurance offices, Building Healthy Families, Head Start and medical dinics. She said theyaTeusingvariousforms ofm ediato put out the word, as well.

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.

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

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.

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."
