A possible

third lane The Ladd Creek project to replace a 25-foot culvert will also give ODOT the option of constructing a third lane of travel on 1-84, said ODOT spokesperson Tom Strandberg. "This kind of all ties in and enables us to do that in the future," he said. A third lane is not currently funded, Strandberg said, but this project aligns with that vision for the future. The third lane would go in on the eastbound side, where trucks typically slow for the climb up the canyon.

The La Grande City Council decided not to allow Hwy. 30 Cannabis and Eagle Cap Dispensary, the local two medical marijuana facilities, to sell recreational marijuana in less than a month. The Oregon Legislature came out with a measure that would allow medical marijuana facilities in the state to sell recreationally beginning Oct. 1, if the municipalities allowed it. At the meeting on Wednesday night, most of the objections forthepresale mentioned the fact that the Oregon Liquor Control Commission has not passed regulations forrecreational marijuana, which creates a difficult situation for local police departments.

Union County Commissionersasked for public comment on Oregon House Bill 3400, and they are getting it. The commissioners recessed Wednesday's public hearing until the next meeting because of the number of residents who asked to speak on the subject. The commissioners are faced with deciding whether to opt out of allowing the productionand sale of marijuana in unincorporated parts of the county. Community members came forward Wednesday asking the commissioners not to opt out and instead reap the benefits of the tax revenue from the See County / Page 5A

Joan Smith said during Wednesday's meeting that the Oregon Liquor Control Commission has not passed its regulations regarding recreational marijuana and the community isn't equipped to have it available to sell.

La Grande Police Chief Brian Harvey said Babcock allegedly fled the scene after the police department got a domestic violence call in town. Police initially followed Babcockbutcalled off the search. Capt. Craig Ward of the Union County Sheriff's Office said the Oregon State Police and sheriff deputies then spotted Babcock outbound on Highway 30 heading toward the interstate. He then got on the freeway and was pursued, Ward said, with speeds reaching at or near 100 mph. After taking exit 273, Babcock was taken into custody. "He was compliant," Ward

Forest officials had banned all fires a few weeks ago due to the extreme fire danger. Cooler temperatures have eased that danger, but only slightly.

Ferrioli said while the effort to help businesses established by underrepresented groups is an excellent idea, he also wonders why rural Oregon appears to be left out in this case.

"Helpingstart-ups isa greatidea,but let's be a little bit more bipartisan and show a little more partiality," Ferrioli said. He has called on Brown to allocate $500,000 for rural and suburban areas. Chris Pair, a spokesman for Brown, said similar initiatives for rural Oregon are already in the planning stages. 'There is a similar program, the mechanics of it are the same. We are planning on launching it this fall," he said. The $250,000 grantwill help finance the new Indusive Starlup Fund. The Startup Fund, craM by the Portland Develop-

the place with the greatest need. "Ifyou are going to go where the problems are the greatest, where unemploymentis chronically highest and where itis more diKcult to find capital, then I think you endup in ruralOregon,"hesaid. Oregon state Rep. Cliff Bentz, the Ontario Republican who also represents Baker County, said helping small businesses is key to a vibrant economic future. He said that although he isn't familiar with the investment program in Portland, there are an array of programs designed to help small businesses get off the ground. ''Wehave many different program that are designed to help start-ups," Bentz said."I would say anything we can do to try to understand the challenges that are facing new business we need to address. If it is a lack of capital we need to look at that carefully and see what we can do," he said.

Of course, a school building is more thanjust a collection ofbricks and mortar. A school building is also great teachers, a terrific sta6; students energized to learn and parents supporting them every step of the way. Still, it's good to learn that seven new classrooms are soon to be added to Island City Elementary School. The construction project is being paid for as

rrer • rr

a small part of the $31.85 million bond for maintenance and capital construction La Grande School District voters approved in November. The classrooms are much needed. One reason is the school is going to all-day kindergarten, part of a state mandate to get children better prepared for the challenges of elementary school, and their education beyond. The addition will enable many children to go to school closer to their homes. This year, students in the Island City Elementary attendance area are attending kindergarten at Willow Elementary. Good buildings mean better schools. Environment is important for learning. It's hard to teach and hard to learn when buildings are crumbling around students' ears, or when existing classrooms, however nice, are overcrowded with students not getting the personal attention they deserve. Such conditions contribute to health and safety problems and impair the quality of teaching and learning. La Grande School District voters, last November, defied the odds. Many school bonds regularly go down in Aames. Unless assured the investment will pay dividends, most people will vote against higher taxes. The voters are paying close attention to their own personal budgetary bottom line and ability to pay their own bills on time. It's wise, however, to invest in education. Today's students are tomorrow's leaders. They are tomorrow's lawyers, dentists, teachers, small business owners and police oKcers. Students should be given every opportunity to succeed, and part of that is placing them in an environment suitable for learning, growing and becoming good citizens of the community. Another benefit of the site plan announced by the school district is to boost security. All classrooms at Island City Elementary will be adjacent to each other, which makes things safer for students and teachers. As much as we don't like to think about it, security is critical in the 21st century school. Too many senseless attacks have occurred throughout the country to ignore this risk. Anything that can be done to make students, teachers and staA'safer contributes to a more positive learning environment. Sure, the school district could have chosen, or be forced by budget, to go the modular route for classrooms, as so many districts have had to do statewide. That would have been unfortunate. Stick-built classrooms have better air circulation and are more solidly built, which provides a better environment for students to thrive. New classrooms will also need less maintenance and fewer repairs, at least in the first few years of their existence. And they send a message to students that the community considers education important, a top priority, as we prepare the leaders of tomorrow.

onald Trump is driving the Republican Party into the abyss. Can Nikki Haley pull it back? Trump, the Republican presidential front-runner, talks of immigrants as rapists and women as bimbos and appeals to the angry white man. He invokes the "silent majority," employs racial dog whistles and picks fights with everybody, but conspicuously with two well-known broadcasters, a Latino and a woman. Then there is Haley, young and charismatic, often mentioned as avicepresidential prospect. The child of Indian immigrants, she is the first woman and the first member of a minority group to be governor of South Carolina. She responded admirably and forcefully to the police killing in her state of Walter Scott, an unarmed black man, and she championed legislation to put cameras on police officers statewide — the first of its kind. She wept with the mourners after a massacre at a black church in Charleston, and she led the subsequent effort to remove the Confederate flag &om the state capitol grounds. She told her children about Cynthia Hurd, one of the Charleston victims, whose motto was to "be kinder than necessary." "That's now my life motto," Haley, 43, said Wednesday afternoon. Nobody ever mistook that for Trump's motto. And Haley, although kinder than she needed to be, visited Washington on Wednesday with some sharp words for the man who has become the party's standard-bearer. "Every time someone criticizes him, he goesand makes a politicalattack back," Haley said when asked about Trump during an appearance atthe National Press Club."That's not who we are as Republicans. That's not what we do. Americans, Haley said, "want to know they're sending someone up to the White House that's going to be calm and cool-tempered and not get mad at someone just because they criticize him. We would really have a world war if that happens." She also had advice for Trump on his immigration stance, which includes ending birthright citizenship and building a wall along the Mexican border.

Citing the rapid move to prosecute Walter Scott's killer and her successful effort to remove the Confederate flag, she asked for better behavior &om her fellow Republicans."The problem for our partyisthatourapproach often appears cold and unwelcoming to minorities," she said."That's shameful and that has to change.... It's on us to communicate our positions in ways that wipe away the clutter ofprejudices." Maybe those battling to lead the Republican ticket will take a cue from their would-be running mate.

"Republicans need to remember that the fabric of America came &om these legal immigrants," she said."If you want to talk about tackling illegal immigration, then let's talk about it, but we don't need to attack so many millions of people who came here ... and did it the right way, like my parents." Haley wasn't finished.'Why are you going all the way to this side and talking about birthright citizenship when you haven't even talked about illegal immigration itselP.' she asked."Are you as a candidate going to commit to puttingtroops along theborder?"She also cited the high cost of drones, planes, and detention and deportation capabilities, which would be needed. Concluded the governor: "Don't say you're just going to build a wall, because a wall's not going to do it." It was at times implicit and at times explicit, but it was clearly a rebuke of Trump from a lonely voice of tolerance within the party. More of this is needed, and fast, if the GOP is to avoid Trump's siren call to alienate everybody but the party's shrinking demographic base. Jeb Bush is finally challenging Trump, but for being insuKciently conservative. Trump's rivals remain hesitant to condemn his winks at bigotry. Haley is no squish. A darling of the tea party movement when she was first elected in 2010, she noted Wednesday her support for voter I.D. laws, which areoftenviewed as a way to suppress African American voters, and she blamed the Black Lives Matter movement for fomenting violence. But she offered a conciliatory racial message thatcould be a balm for a party alienating more non-white Americans by the day with its outlandish presidential contest. She spoke of the discrimination her family faced when she was young, and of the need for an"equality agenda" for African Americans.'There still remain the unfinished goals of the civil rights movement, and the civil rights movement is a critical part of the American movement, and the American story.

Recent weather conditions have eased concern for public access into some areas surrounding the fires burning in the Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness and on state-protected private lands in both Oregonand Washington. The Grizzly Bear Complex blaze, which started Aug. 13, is burning 20 miles south of Dayton, Washington, and south and east of Troy. The entire Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness remains closed to public entry in additionto some adjacent non-wilderness areas where firefighters and large equipment continue to mop up hot spots, tie in fire lines and strengthen contingency lines. A closure description and map of the reduced area and roadclosures areavailable at all Umatilla National Forest offices as well as on the Umatilla National Forest website, www.fs.usda.gov/

"My uncle, Jim Weaver, worked on this and that's what brought him to the La Grande area," said Nate Adkins, superintendent for Wildish Construction. While the massive freeway project may have drawn workers, it didn't maintain fish habitat, particularly in the Ladd Creek area. "Currently, this is as far upstream as (fishl can go becauseofthatdrop,"said Adkins, a La Grande resident who fished for trout in the area as a kid. Wildish, though based out of Eugene, has a local crew working at the sitecrew members are all from La Grande or Pendleton. The local project site has been a welcome reprieve from the usual across-thestate projects. "This is awesome,"Al Frye Jr. said ofbeing close to home. Frye too has ties to the original interstate construction. His father, Al Frye Sr., helped drill through the rock in Ladd Canyon. "They opened up a lot of this," said Frye, who operates equipment on this job. 'They threw a lot of rock off the mountain." Construction crews this springbegan excavation work at the site to put in a 500-foot-long plate arch culvert, resembling a tunnel. Frye said his father

COUNTY Continued from Page1A state that will be given to those communities that allow the sale and production of marijuana. Richard Kenton, owner of Plantworks LLC, a greenhouse business near Cove but in the county's jurisdiction, was among those who requested the commissioners not opt out. He said he would consider selling recreational marijuana in ordertoboosthisbusiness. "I'm interested in growing marijuana as a crop," Kenton said."I'm not interested in selling marijuana to children." Some of the anti-marijuana group said children can easily get their hands on marijuana, and the problem will only increase if the communities in the area don't opt out. ''Why force people in Union County to drive somewhere else to get marijuana?" asked Kenton."If we opt out, then no one comes to the community. If we opt in, then that's one more dollar to these (Union County) services." Joan Smith countered that the Oregon Liquor Control Commission has not passeditsregulations regarding recreational marijuana and the community isn't equipped to have it available to sell. 'The rules aren't ready," Smith said. "Nationally, it's illegal. Marijuana isn't like prohibition — it's never been legalized before. It's going to get to the kids. The police aren't ready for this." Virginia Rager, who was a teacher for more than 30 years, said she's never smoked marijuana, but it's legal now and the community can use it if they choose.

The commissioners had to recess the public hearing because there were more items to discuss. The hearing will continue with more public input at 10:45 a.m. Sept. 16 at the Joseph Annex. Directly following the HB 3400 public hearing, the commissioners decided unanimously to approve Chris Arvidson's request to become another resource for the Grande Ronde Hospital as an Advanced Life Support transport. Arvidson's wait to get his business, Med Transport, up and running was extended because of a request from the La Grande Fire Department that the commissioners hold off on the decision until the department could gather accurate numbers of how many transports were coming out of the hospital. The fir e department has been the only ground transport available previously and did not want to lose the possible revenue iftherewas a large number of transports coming out of the hospital. However, Fire Chief Bruce Weimer admitted there have been sta5ng challenges in the past interfering with the department'sability totransport patients. Commissioner Jack Howard clarified for the fire department that Med Transportisjustone more resource available to the hospital, and this does not mean the department will lose all transports. As the meeting continued, the commissioners considered a request from the Shelter From the Storm's board of directors that the county contribute to the purchase of the building the shelter is housed in on Island Avenue.

have worked in a safe manner, which is impressive in light of their limited firefighting experience. Fire camps are being closed as progress continues to be made. The camps at Troy and Fry Meadow in Wallowa County are among those set to close in the next several days, Lavagnino said. A totalof1,015 peopleare now assigned to the fires.

Once installed, the culvert was filled with streambed-like materials, Apke said, to "mimic what's downstream and upstream." The creek will be diverted into the tunnel — which has a 5.4 percent grade — so fish can travel through the culvert, under the rebuilt road beneath the interstate, and continue climbing upstream toward 12 miles ofhabitat. The existing culvert — with the 25-foot drop — will be filled and its safety cageremoved. Apke said the change will allow fish, particularly anadromous fish such as steelhead, to reenter habitat grounds. 'This does nothing but improve fishing and recreational opportunities," he said. As for Adkins and Frye, they're not as excited about the project ending in the next month or so because

Reynolds also replied to Harvey's claim that there has been a 600 percent increase since the legalization in Colorado in children overdosing on marijuana. She said she'd like to see where he got the information, because she has proof that it's not the case. The city council will hold the second reading of the ordinance at next month's meeting with more public comment.

Bunions: Treatment Starts at the Bottom People who go toe-to-toe with foot problems may be able to avoid suffering the agony of "da feet." An increasingly common foot p roblem, e s pecially a m o n g women, is bunions. A bunion is an enlargement of the joint at the base of the big toe — the metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint — that forms when the bone or tissue at the joint moves out of place. This forces the toe to bend toward the others, causing an often painful lump of bone on the foot. Since this joint carries a lot of the body's weight while walking, bunions can cause extreme pain if left untreated. The MTP joint itself may become stiff and sore, m aking even the w earing o f shoes difficult or impossible. Symptoms of bunions include: • Development of a firm bump on the outside edge of the foot, at the base of the big toe; • Redness, swelling, or pain at or near the MTP Joint; • Corns or other painful motion of the big toe. Bunions can be genetic — foot type is handed down, so family members may inherit associated

problems. Bunions can be caused by foot injuries and neuromuscular disorders, and people with flat f eet or a r thritis are p r one t o developing them. But perhaps the most common cause of bunions is the wearing of shoes that are too tight, or cause the toes to be squeezed together — especially high heels, which is why bunions are particularly prevalent among women. Fortunately, some basic treatments can help. Bunion pads and ice packs are two ways to reduce swelling. As a preventive measure, avoid high-heeled shoes or at the very least, alternate them with "flats" throughout the day to give your feet a break. Shoe manufacturers have also come up with " w alking" p u mps ( also known as "comfort" or "performance" pumps which have a wider toe box for more freedom of movement. If pain persists, Dr. Clarke and Dr. Hampton can recommend other treatments, such as padding, orthotics and medication. Surgery may also be necessary to remove the bony enlargement.

JOSEPH — There may be a folk school in the artsoriented city of Joseph's future. Greg Hennes, who alreadyhas impressed local residents with his continuing restoration of the century-old Jennings Hotel, has avision fora craftsoriented institution in a long-neglected city-owned building. "This has been a dream of mine for many years," Hennes told the city council Thursday night."I'm ready to work on it now." Hennes is eyeing a former water-driven powerhouse at Joseph City Park, an all-brick structure standing unused behind a Pacific Power substation on Mill Street. Students and adults could learn carpentry, fiber crafts, carving,bronze casting, boat building and other traditional techniques from local experts at the school, Hennes said. Hennes himself is a folk school graduate, having taken classes at North House in Grand Marais, Minnesota, where he learned timber traming. He's using that skill in his work at the Jennings, which he bought this year and is turning back into a boutique hotel from years as apartments and offices. He asked councilors to consider selling or leasing the powerhouse building to him. He estimated that "getting it up and running"

the sake of marveling atits beauty or purity. You can practice nature religion and still alliate with a traditional religion, scholars said. It's a value system that can be layered onto other world views. Nature religion isn't a new or limited to the Northwest. Native Americans considered the earth sacred and adapted their behavior to preserveand respectitlong before Europeans arrived. Henry David Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson reflected themes of nature religion in their 19th century writing. Around the turn of the 20th century, Christian groups started taking camping trips for religious educational as-

semblies, believing nature was good for the soul. So when did nature religion become a thing? Scholars credit Catherine Albanese as the first academic to define the term and useitto describe the concept we're discussing today. She's now a professor at the University of California in Santa Barbara. Scholars describe nature religion as the Northwest's spiritual identity in part becauseitissopervasive, butalso because thereisn'ta dominant traditional religion to claim the crown. That lack of traditional religiosityis embedded in the history of the Northwest, paving the way for the region to develop its un-churched reputation.

The first white people here weren't coming to make a family home, said Susanna Morrill, a religion expert at Lewis & Clark College. They came first for fur, then for timber. Most were young men — the demographic least likely to carry on traditions. Bars and brothels cropped up to cater to those lads. The region developed a reputation for its godlessness fairly quickly, Morrill said, attracting the antennae of missi onariesback east. Catholics, Methodists, Presbyterians, Congregationalists and Baptists all swooped in, divvying up the land. No one group established a monopoly, allowing a diverse array of ideas to flourish.

People tend to adopt the religi ousness oftheregion theymove to,regardlessof where they grew up or where they go, said Patricia Killen, a religion expert at Gonzaga University. In the Northwest, newcomers might let go of traditional religion because they're influenced by antiinstitutional attitudes. They m ightalso cuttiesbecause they were only half-heartedly religious where they came from,attending servicesbecause it was socially expected. There's also what Morrill calls"the Portlandia effect." People who resonate with the Northwest's reputation move here to fit in, thus adding to the number of people who fit the stereotype.

The numbers point to a grim reality: Just about every week, there is a workplace fatality somewhere in Oregon. Like Kline's, these deaths are typically sudden and violent. They seldom make the news.

The La Grande girls soccer team has put together a recent run of dominance in theGreater Oregon League, having won the league four years in a row with a combined 27-3 record. But the Tigers' hopes of garnering a fifth-straight title depends on how well they replace seven seniors — including their entire starting defense

and goalkeeper. eWe lost some really important players from last season," fourth-year head coach Sam Brown said."It's just going to be different. I think we have the quality to make up what we lost." Gone off the back line for the Tigers are Kirstin Ward, Rachel Alexander, Suzie Housden and Sarah Rasmussen. In placeofthosedefenders are upand-comers like Irelyn Miles, Jenny Schiller and Kara Gooderham, players Brown is depending on. Goalkeeper Auslin McDaniel-Perrin, who had been a mainstay in net for the Tigers, is also gone. "(Auslin) was a tough loss," Brown said.'That was a quality player (who)

had been playing varsity soccer since she was a freshman." However, that transition may be the most seamless as La Grande gained a senior transfer in Kylee Schelin. "It's nicetohave a seasoned goalkeeper," Brown said."It makes (the transition) a lot easier." The Tigers' losses were fewer on the offensive end, as Avery Stanton was the key contributor lost to graduation. Brown has back, however, a group of "quality attackers" including seniors Clara Gandy, Alissa Welberg, Brittany Hanson and Kyla Gomes. "Some of the girls coming in bring speed that we didn't necessarily have SeeSoccer/Page 10A

Entering the fall, the Elgin volleyball team has a distinct objective it is shooting for. "I think the team goal last year was to make it to (Class 2A Wapiti League District Championships), and we were one game shy," head coach Carmen Pearson said. "So this year our team goal is getting to go to districts." To do that the Huskies will have to replace six seniors, including Miah Slater and Aria Higgins, from a 2014 squad that went 2-12 overall and 2-10 in the Wapiti. eWe lost pretty much the bulk of our team, so it's a pretty young team this year," Pearson said."But we're pretty solid, overall. If they can gel together, I think we'll have areally good team. SeeHuskies/Page 11A

The Enterprise/Joseph girls cross country team is fielding just one senior this fall but returns two of the best runners in the state at the 3A/2A/1A level and is gaining an addition from a league rival. Junior Isabelle Tingelstad and senior Dawn Mist Movich-Fields return as the centerpieces for veteran head coach Dan M oody. The runners finished fourth and sixth, respectively,atthe 2014 statemeet in Eugene. 'The other girls will definitely build around them," Moody said. Annie Duncan joins the squad after transferring from Union, and Moody is curious to see how the different training method he employs works for the junior. "I know what she's capable of running," he said."I know my philosophy is about the difference of night and day ifrom Union's). It's just how she responds to our workouts. "I'm hoping that it will really work for her. It works for the other girls." Eliza Irish placed 33rd at state last SeeRunners/Page 11A

No. 2 Frogs hold on Cats lose Wright The Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS — Trevone Boykin threw for 246 yards and a touchdown and ran for 92 yards and another score to help No. 2 TCU outlast Minnesota 23-17 on Thursday night. Boykin started his Heisman push by completing26 of42 passes.Buthe also threw an interception and the Horned Frogs had a difFicult time getting their frenetic offense rolling against Minnesota's determined defense. Their 23 points were theirfewestscored since Nov. 9, 2013. The Horned Frogs shared the Big 12 titlelastyear,butwere leftoutofthe four-team playofFfield. They've heard nothing but questions about the crushing disappointment for the last nine months, providing plenty of motivation to erase that memory with a national championship run this season.

HUSKIES Continued from Page 9A I really believe that." Pearson said there are four girls on the eight-player roster with varsity experience. Sophomore Maggie Ledbetter is the team's main setter, and Pearson said her athleticism is one ofher strengths. Junior Cheyanne Wilhelm was a middle blockerlastseason but looks to spend most of this season as an outside hitter. Senior setter/defensive specialist Katelyn Harris couldbe setfora bigyear

Jaden Oberkrom made three field goals, including a 53-yarder, and Josh Doctson had eight catches for 74 yards and a touchdown for TCU. Mitch Leidner threw for 197 yards for Minnesota. His touchdown pass to K.J. Maye with 1:32 left pulled the Golden Gophers within a touchdown, but TCU recovered the onside kick to hang on. Maye had four catches for 73 yards and RodneySmith rushed for 88 yards and a touchdown for the Golden Gophers. They haven't beaten a Top 10 team at home since 1977.

No. 22 Arizona 42, UTSA 32 TUCSON, Ariz.— Anu Solomon threw four touchdown passes to help Arizona beat UTSA, but the Wildcats sufFered a big blow when All-America linebacker Scooby Wright went out

after missing last volleyball season with an injury. "She's one of our best m otivators, "Pearson said. "Katelyn gets everybody up on the team and is great about making sure that everyone is working together." Sophomore Hannah McClure is back at her libero position, and Elgin also receivedan impactful transfer in senior Karigan Wilhelm, an outsidehitter/defensive specialist from Imbler. "Karigan plays all the way around for us, and she's going to be a really good asset to our team," Pearson said. The Huskies have some

early with a left knee injury. Wright, the junior who swept the major defensive player of the year awards last season, went down in the first quarter and spent the second half in street clothes, walking with a cane. Arizona sputtered on offense most of the night and allowed UTSA, a team returningtwo ofFensive starters,to rack up 525 total yards. Arizona scored two defensive touchdowns, but had numerous breakdowns, even before Wright went down. UTSA's Blake Bogenschutz had 332 yards and two touchdowns on 25-of-43 passing after throwing an interception that Anthony Lopez returned 23 yards for a touchdown on the game's first pass. Solomon threw for 229 yards on 22of-26 passing, and Nick Wilson ran for 97 yards.

better height to the frontline players this year, something that will be necessary when Elgin gets into the meat of a very tough Wapiti. She's also going to lean on liberos such as McClure to be the glue for the team. "I rely heavily on the libero to make that first pass," Pearson said."In this league everybody has that powerhouse hitter, so we'll have to stay focused with our defense." The challenges for Elgin all tie directly to the lack of experience with some of the p l a yers. Pearson knows that t e a m leaders like Harris

will be crucial to keeping the Huskies together when facing the tougher teams. With little m argin forerrorin league play, a consistent focus is what Pearson wants to see. ''What I told the team (in practice) is that every game counts," Pearson said."If we're up, we need to close it out and win in three (games), rather than five. We don't want to mess around when we're ahead." The Huskies begin the seasonata Riversidetournament in Boardman Saturday.

First-year Elgin/Imbler cross country head coach Christine Eckstein has her work cut out for her, but she's excited at what she sees for the future. "In the first year it's tough to build up a team right ofFthe bat.Ittakesyears sometimes," she said."But if we come together as a family that will translate into success. I feel like this group has a great deal of potential in front of them." Six boys and one girl make up the Elgin/Imbler roster this year. For the boys, sophomore Micah Flippo placed the highest on the team at the Class 2A Special District 5 championships last year, taking 29th with a finish of 19 minutes, 26.4 seconds. Jonathan Flippo is the lone senior this fall, and he returnsafterplacing 31stat districts in 2014 with a time of 19:34.3. "Jonathan is obviously one of our more experienced boys, and he's kind of a leader of the team," Eckstein said. Junior Kevin Duffy is the third Husky back from placing at districts, where he inished 61st(21:28)lastseaf son. One of the new runners is junior Ryan Chandler. "Ryan is a homeschooled kid, and one of the things I like about him is that he's disciplined," Eckstein said."He's a smart kid who does the right things, and he's really going to help the team out."

Sophomore Dohnovan Tate is a newcomer to the team and to the sport. Eckstein said Tate wanted to take up crosscountry to getready for the wrestling season. "He runs a lot by himself, so he's kind of already prepared for the season," Eckstein said. Freshman Timothy Flippo rounds out the boys roster and has cross country experience after competing for the middleschoolprogram. For the girls, freshman Lerae Ruck is the only athlete on the team. "She's got a lot of room to grow, and she's already made a lot of improvements," Eckstein said. The goal for Elgin/Imbler this year is to finish out the season on a high note. eWe definitely want to peak at districts," Eckstein said."I'd really like to see as many of our boys (get a personal record) at districts, and be one of the best teams there. They've got to put in the work now." Elgin/Imbler starts the season at the Runner Soul Cross Country Fest in Hermiston Saturday. But as the season wears on, Eckstein just wants the team to enjoy the sport,above allelse. "I'm the type of coach that believes high school sports should be fun," Eckstein said."I'd like them to make lifelong friends and memories out of it, and to learn life lessonsand become better peopleand teammates."

Rabid bat bites man in Creswell EUGENE — Health offrcials say a bat that bit a man this week in Creswell has testedpositive forrabies. Lane County Public Health officials said Thursday that the man has begun a four-parttreatment regimen. Spokesman Jason Davis told the Register-Guard that he's expected to be fine. At least 10 rabid bats have been identified in Oregon this year. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the rabiesvirusinfectsthe central nervous system and ultimately causes disease in the brain and death. While people are at risk of being bitten by bats, health officials say pets face an even greater danger. They advise pet owners to make sure dogs and cats are vaccinated.

The woman gotout unharmed. The woman described the pickup as a gray Ford fiom the late'80sorearly'90s.Ithasan extended cab and lifted suspension. The driver went by Travis and is about 50 years old. He has blond hair, blue eyes and a heaver build. Those with tips are asked to call Det. Lori Rosebraugh at 541-296-9646, extension 5350.

PORTLAND — A lawyer for Oracle Corp. implored a federal judge Thursday to let the company's copyright lawsuit against the state of Oregon go forward despite the state's claim that it is immune from being sued. The caseis part of a complex legal battle stemmingfirrm the failure of the Cover Oregon healthinsurance exchange. 'This is a case where the state of Oregon has simply appropriated Orade's code and said, Sorry, you can't sue us,"'Orade attorney Karen Johnson-McKewan said.. Oracle, which was the primary technology contractor on the Cover Oregon project, maintains it was never fully paid for its work and that the state illegally used Oracle's code. Cover Oregon was created by the Legislature as a public corporation indepen-

Oracle's code and said, 'Sorry, you can'tsue us."' — Karen Johnson-McKewan, attorney for Oracle

dentofthe state,governed by aboard of directors appointed bythegovernor. Earlier this year — after the website failme became a political embarrassment and led Oregon and Orade to sue each other — the Legislature voted to disband the Cover Oregon corporation and transfer its responsibilities to state agencies. Oregon's lawyers argue the legislative move requires Orade's lawsuit to be dismissed because the state is generally immune firrm litigation under the 11th Amendmentof the Constitution, while the autonomous Cover Oregon was not.

Oracle argues that the statew aived its immunity in its various contracts with Oracle. The company also says transferringCover Oregon to a state agency was unconstitutional if it deprivesOracle ofthe opportunity to enforce its intellectual property rights. "If that is not an impairment of the contract in violation of the U.S. Constitution, I don't know what is," JohnsonMcKewan said. US. District JudgeAnna Brrrwn said she'llconsider the arguments andissue an opinion"reasonablysoon."Lawyers forboth sides said theyexpect tn appealiftheylose. The copyright dispute is only part of the wide-ranging litigation between Oregonand Oracle.In a separate case pending in Marion County Circuit Court, the state accuses Oracle of fraud and corruption. Oracle accuses the stateofcontractviolations.

Youarenaturallyphilanthropic ; you do indeed care deeply for others. Still, you are also driven by a need to secure for yourselfthe best in life — and while others may call this "selfish" at times, the fact is that without that drive, you arenot likely to accomplish much at all. The more you try to balance your personal needs with genuine careforthose around you,thebetter.

WEEICLY HUNTING REPORT

EAGLE SCOUTS

STEELHEAD NATION CAMERQN SCQTT

BAKER COUNTY Archery hunters should find deer and elk around water and cool moist northern aspects. The continuation of warm temperatures will limit animal activity to early morning and late evening. Remember to check the regulations for the area you will be hunting. Grouse season startedTuesday. Blue grouse can be found in the higher elevations while ruffed grouse are more common in wetter areas. Hunters should expect an average year for grouse. UNION COUNTY Black bears are plentiful throughout the county. Look for signs around fruit trees and in canyon bottoms. Bears can be concentrated along creeks and rivers in the late summer. This year's berry crop is not quite what 2014 was but should still make for good early season bear hunting in Union County. Huckle, service and hawthorn berries are all in full swing. Hunt in the early morning and evenings for the best chance of seeing bears. WALLOWA COUNTY Bear hunting is expected to be good early in the morning and late in the evening in draw bottoms and stream bottoms where bears are feeding on hawthorn, service and elder berries. Bull elk hunting was good for the opening weekend in most units. Archery hunters are having to deal with very dry conditions. Buck hunters can expect only fair success as deer numbers are still below management objective and dry conditions will make stalking difficult. Hunters are reminded to check USFS regulations on camp/cook fires. Grouse hunters can expect to find blue grouse on ridge tops near wet spring areas. Numbers are still below long-term averages, so hunters will need to work a little harder to find birds. Source: ODRN

People can now travel the Flow Trail in the Mount Emily Recreation Area more safely and with greater help from the laws of physics. La Grande Boy Scout Beeck Thurman has made sure of it. Thurman has built a 23-foot pedestrian footbridge overthe north fork of Conley Creek for his Eagle project. Count Bart Barlow, a member of the Blue Mountain Single Track Trails Club, as among those excited about the new bridge, which is part of Flow Trail. Barlow said it boosts safety

and theease oftravel.He said beforethe bridgewas in place, people had to stop when reaching ConleyCreek and fi gureouthow tocrossthecreek orgetaround it. This could be dangerous, especially when the creek water was high in early spring. It also cost travelerstime. 'You lost all of that momentum 4uilt up while approaching Conley Creek). Now you can ride ia bike), jog or walk without stopping," said Barlow, who served as Thurman's project coach. He said the quality of the bridge reflects excellent work on the part of Thurman. "He built it to extremely high

standards," Barlow said. Thurman got the idea for the project on a spring morning more than a year ago when he looked at the Conley Creek site. "It was snowing lightly and the stream was roaring with freezing cold water. The crossing was obviouslytoodangerous to ford for anyone. The need for a crossing was blatant," Thurman wrote in a pieceabout hisEagleproject. He then began to design a bridge to "span the current." Thurman later constructed the bridge primarily with materials donated by Union County. He was assisted by fellow Boy Scouts, See Project/Page2C

t is raining again in Colorado. This morning, I'm greeted by two wet moose stripping leaves off an aspen tree outside my window. In the afternoon I'll take another client from an endless string of clients on another guided fly fishing trip. An endless string which every summer abruptly ends. But until that ending, what keeps me going through the August and September grind, are thoughts ofhome. Thoughts about big towering ponderosa pines and golden basalt slopes with clumps ofbunchgrass. Red osier. Quiet float trips. Big wide openspaces to getlostin.Steelhead. Rainfall is a funny thing. With all the flooding earlier this summer, all my clients from Texas are finally satiated after years of drought. Their tanks and ponds and lakes are back to full. Their bass and cows are happy again. But there was so much rain it became too much and turned into flash floods. Two different clients shared stories about people they knew who were killed, families torn apart or people still missing. Meanwhile, California continues to experience a drought the Colorado River is unable to quench. Dry as a bone, dusty as adrywash. Before I left in late May, I took a short overnight backpack trip up the Wenaha River to say goodbye to the two things I love most about Wallowa County: solitude and fish. The river was low and the slopes were already hot with rattlesnakes, but the fishing couldn't have been better. Big rainbows and bull trout slammed the hopper as it drifted past or skated in an arc downstream. And while there were other folks backpacking and fishing, what might have been considered a busy weekend, by Colorado standards, was pretty quiet. Not that I can't find quiet corners to fish in the Roaring Fork Valley where I guide, but sometimes it is surprising how many people show up in quiet, out-of-the-way corners. Last weekend when my mom was in town I took Sunday ofK After a long hour drive up a deeply rutted dirt road and another threemile hike into a lake, there were no less than seven people already fly fishing. Which is to say nothing of the busy corners, like the FryingPan Riverwhere Ispend many days in late July and August guiding clients, where people often fish within casting distance of each other. Which is why, some nights out here in Colorado, I literally dream of winter steelhead fishing. Not the crowds of March, but the solitude of October and November. Where there See Scott/Page 2C

By Mark Morical WesCom News Serwce

STANLEY, Idaho — Surrounded by craggy spires of granite with my feet submerged in the glaciercold water of Sawtooth Lake, I breathed in some of the clearest air in the continental United States. Such air belongs to the Sawtooth Wilderness, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. After postponing a muchanticipated trip to the Wallowa Mountains of northeast Oregon due to smoky conditions caused by wildfires, my friend and I ventured east into the heart of the Idaho Rockies on a three-night camping/hiking/mountain biking trip last week. The Sawtooths proved to be a more-than-worthy backup plan — and also offered some relatively clean air. About 420 miles ian eight-hour drivel east from Bend, Stanley — population63 — isthe largest settlement in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area, which boasts more than 700 miles of trails, 40 peaks risingover 10,000 feetand 300-plus-high mountain lakes, according to the U.S. Forest Service. IfBend isan escape for Portlanders, then Stanley is anescape forBendites. Stanley has all the natural amenities of Bend, minus, you know, the 80,000 people. The tiny town is a mountain outpost that can be enjoyed without the annoyance of Cycle Pubs and breweryhopping tourists. In fact, 130 miles northeast of Boise, it feels a bit like the middle of nowhere. A few miles south of Stanley, we found a campsite nestled against the Salmon

Our first day in the Sawtooths was dedicated to a 10-mile round-trip hike from Iron Creek to Sawtooth Lake. My map listed this hike as one of the most popular trails in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. Indeed, the trailhead parking area was nearly full on a Sunday morning. But just a little way into the hike, solitude abounded. As we started gaining elevation, a long series of jagged rocky peaks came into view to the west. The mountains were unlike any I had ever seen,impossible to compare to anything in Oregon. We crossed a dry, brown

meadow, then began a steep climb toward Alpine Lake, just northeast of Sawtooth Lake. Total elevation gain for the hike was about 1,700 feet, and because Sawtooth Lake sits at8,435feet, we could feel the thinner air take hold as the trail became more and more precipitous. Following the switchbacks above the sparkling blue alpine lake, we rose above the treeline and arrived at a babbling brook bordered by yellow wildflowers. From there, it was just a short climb to 170-acre Sawtooth Lake, the largest lake in the Sawtooth Wilderness. In my research of this hike before the trip, I came

While hiking and backpacking are common pursuits in the Sawtooths, the region is also known for its rock climbing and mountain biking opportunities. The area is home to some of the most renowned multipitch granite rock climbing routes in North America, according to www.stanleycc.org. Many mountain bike trails are located in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. Cycling is prohibited in wilderness areas, but several trails are located just outside the Sawtooth Wilderness boundary.

Mount Regan, at 10,190 feet, rises on the south end of the lake and is reflected in the shimmering water. A few other hikers and backpackers milled about around the rocky shore, taking in the mountain scenery. While we were on a day hike, many others carried large backpacks, heading out formultiday tripsdeeper into the Sawtooth Wilderness.

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife announced Thursday it is relaxing fishing restrictions on 10 northeast Oregon bodies of water. The eased restrictions go in effect immediately. ODFW plans to chemically treat lakes and ponds in Baker,Union,Wa llowa and Umatilla counties this fall to remove unwanted fish species and improve trout fisheries. Under the new temporary regulations, there are no daily bag or possession limits, no size limits, and anglers can harvest fish by hand, net or angling. "By relaxing the rules, we hope to givepeoplethe opportunity to harvest these fish before we remove them,"

ODFW fish biologist Kyle Bratcher said. Kinney Lake in Wallowa County, Peach, Lugar and Boundary ponds in Union County, and Keyhole, Granite Meadows, Goldfish, Yellowjacket and Windy Springs ponds in Umatilla County are the waterbodiesaffected by the temporaryregulations. The regulations will be in place until 12:01 a.m. Sept. 26, at which time the bodies of water will be closed due to the chemical treatment. They are scheduled to reopen Jan. 1, 2016. 'The three-month closure gives us some flexibility in scheduling the treatments, and providesample time for detoxification," ODFW fish biologist Tim Bailey said.

mtesCom News Service

Gluten-fiee cookbook author Michelle Lee meets a lot of people who hope the diet will lead to weight loss. 'The perception is that when you cut out gluten, you cut out carbs, and then you lose weight," said Lee, who started following a gluten-fiee diet four years ago because ofher husband's allergy. Lee and her husband both lost weight, but she said that was probably the result of lifestyle changes like cooking more meals from scratch and dining out less. Most weightlossstudiesfailtoaccount for such incidental effects. That's one reason there's so much buzz around recent research thatcompared reduced-fat and reduced-carbohydrate diets — and found that cuttingfatled to a greaterloss in body fat. "Incontrastto previous claims about a metabolic advantage of carbohydrate restriction from enhancing bodyfatloss,ourdataand model simulations support the opposite conclusion," National Institutes of Health researchers concluded in an article published in the journal Cell Metabolism. "Furthermore, we can definitively reject the claim that carbohydraterestriction is requiredforbody fatloss." The tightly controlled study, which involved 19 obese people staying in a

After a two-week to fourweek"wash-out" period, the partici pants returned tothe clinic and followed the same procedure under the opposite diet. As the study's authors noted, the reduced-carbohydrate diet was not what most people would consider"lowcarb."

Dr. David Glabe examines DottieWitkes' eyes for potential signs of cataracts, a progressive clouding of the lens.

By Ttish Yerges ForWesCom News Service

At one time age-related cataracts left seniors bilaterally blind. But no more. Today, cataract surgeries are common and fast, and they often restore the patient's vision to 20/20. This year an estimated 3.6 million cataract procedures will be performed in the U.Su and more than 20 million will be performed worldwide, according to a March report from Review

Free SessionAddressesCommon Causes Of Shoulder Pain BAKER CITY — Asession about shoulder pain and shoulder dysfunction is set for Friday, Sept. 18 from 9:45 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. at the YMCA Fitness Center, 3715 Pocahontas Road in Baker City. It is free to the community. Kim Zinn, DPT,ATC at SaintAtphonsus Medical Center-Baker City's rehabilitation services, will lead the class. This is the fourth part in her "Symmetry Series." Zinn said the talk will address a "kink in your shoulder" and "that pinch when you reach up or outn Although this "mechanical pain" is quite common and often eventually resolves itself, there are tools to address this kind of pain and improve function sooner. The class will discuss various types of shoulder pain, what causes it and options for treatment. There will be a focus on proper posture/alignment, repeated mechanical-based exercises (to u un-kinkn the hose) and strengthening of the rotator cuff muscles. Additional discussion will cover less common reasons for shoulder pain, such as inflammation and referred pain from the neck. Child care is available. Those planning to attend are asked to RSVP by calling 541-523-9622.

Have your insurance card and the document in question (medical bill or insurance company statement) handy. If you're calling to see if an upcoming treatment will be covered, have the diagnostic and procedural codes from your doctor. Being prepared also means having something to do while on hold. Multi-tasking will ease your stress.

Use their name, and show the impact their assistance had, if you can." Being nice makes it more likely theQ go the extra yard for you.

Understand your plan M ost people read the"101"version of their benefits, typically a pamphlet or PDF summarizing coverage. But if you're contesting something, you'll want to have the "201" version, says Russell. Thisiscalled the"evidence ofcoverage" or"certificate of insurance," and it's typically much hefber — sometimes up to 200 pages. It may be mailed to your home or posted online, but sometimes you have to request it. SeeInsurancelPage 5C

Getting Ahead Of Bullying For many children, the start of a new school year can be very stressful, especially if they've been victims of bullying in the past. Mayo Clinic Children's Center psychologist Dr. Bridget Biggs says parents and caregivers should know the warning signs. Biggssaid theconsequences of bullying can be serious. Victims are at increased risk of depression, anxiety, sleep problems, self-harm, poor grades and, in rare cases, suicide. Biggs has tips for parents and caregivers on how to help children who are victims of bullying: • Talk it out: Askyour child about concerns. • Learn: Get information from your child about what's happening.

• Take notes: Record details of bullying events. • Discuss how to respond: Walk away and get help from a trusted adult or peer. • Build self-esteem: Encourage your child to get involved in positive activities. •Team up:Reach outto teachers. If the bullying doesn't stop, contact the school or proper authorities. Biggs said bullying comes in many forms: physical, verbal, emotional, social and online. She says creating a culture of respect in and out of the classroom is key to bullying prevention.

His head-spinning journey is chronicled in the documentary "I errell Takes the Field," airing Saturday, Sept. 12, on HBO. Produced by a partnership between Major League Baseball and the humor website Funny or D ie, the presentation is

dedicated to helping Cancer for College, which provides scholarships for young people who have had the disease. In each of the five games, the then-47year-old former "Saturday Night Live" star suited up with men halfhis age, played for half an inning, then went across the field to the other clubhouse, changed uniforms

and played another half-inning. When done, he hopped into a waiting helicopter that took him to the next ballpark, where he repeated the routine.

Along the way, he changed in bathrooms, ate lunch in a trainer's room

a nd did everything on the fly. O n t h e field, he was vintage I errell — irreverent, goofy and clueless. But when he showed up in first thing in the morning in the A's clubhouse, not e veryone knew what to thi nk . "Some of tthe players) found out that morning," explains Joe Farrell, an executive producer of the film. "I think some players were thrilled. Some players had costumes dressed as Will in his movies and some dressed up as Burt Reynolds from his 'SNL' 'Jeopardy!' days to sort of be with Will. So some players were really into it, and we were super respectful because other players, they're trying to make a team. You know, we made some jokes about how two weeks from now, a lot of you guys might not be on the team.

Ten teams, 10 positions, one very tired comedian. That's the scenario Will I errell lived this past March 12, when for charity he took the field in five Arizona preseason games to play all nine on-field positions plus designated hitter for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Los Angeles Dodgers, San Francisco Giants, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Cincinnati Reds, Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Seattle Mariners, Oakland A's But that was true, and so we were super respectful and San Diego Padres. to guys taking at-bats."
