UNION- Both how history is written and how museums present our past is sometimes determined by how we like to remember ourselves. But not all of our past is pretty. As hosts at the Union County Museum can affirm, many ofthose coming to see the exhibits, relics, and photos ofUnion County's past want to see glimpses of their own pioneer families as they were. The museum is rich with displays, archives, geA local Klansman wo re this hooded robe in KKK ceremonies and parades. nealogy, yearbooks, and general insights into our ancestors, but occasionally visitors see something they may not want to see. Included in that past is the strength of the local klaverns of the Ku Klux Klan, and the well-documented injustices toward the Chinese and Americans Indians. Standing at the case containing relics of the Chinese past in the area, curator Blanche Kohler says, ''We didn't treat the Chinese well." On the case is an article in a folder visitors may read about the 1887 massacre of 34 Chinese miners 40 miles northeast of Enterprise. In La Grande in 1893, vigilantes burned what was known as Chinatown, an area where the library and dental school are now located, and the Chinese were forcibly expelled. According to Lee C. Johnson in "A Brief History ofUnion County, Oregon," "Similar violence was shown to the Chinese in the Cove region, but those around Union were not molested."
Of yokes and songbooks The Union County Musemn display includes a yoke worn across the shoulders of a Chinese laborer who would have hauled stones for 10 cents a rod for building stone fences. According to Kohler, the yoke was found buried in manure in a shed near the Union railroad junction on the Lowell Hutchinson Land and was donated to the museum by Niola and Vance Pumphrey in 1999. The case also contains the songbook owned by the Chinese man who operated the laundry that extended over Catherine Creek in Union."The Chinese people were a part of our communities," Kohler says, "and not only as laborers. The early settlers highly regarded the Chinese for their use of medicines." The museum display includes some items used by local Chinese herbalists. Atop the display case is a jacket that was worn by Hop Lee, a Chinese laborer in the late 1800s, possibly on the railroads, in the Summerville area. Hop Lee proudly wore his rnilitmy badge, which visitors to the museum can see stiHon his jacket. The items came from the Summerville McKenzie estate. Although they came a little later, equally notorious to the vigilantes who terrorized the Chinese were the region's active Klansmen. The rnusemn has a small display of Ku Klux Klan material, including a hooded robe from a local Klansman from the early

AURORA, Colo. (AP) - A neuroscience graduate student in a gas mask barged into a crowded Denver-area theater during a midnight showing of the Batman movie on Friday, hurled a gas canister and then opened fire, killing 12 people and injming at least 50 others in one of the deadliest mass shootings in recent US. history. When the smoke began to spread, some moviegoers thought it was a stunt that was prut of the "The Dmk Knight Rises,"one of the most highly anticipated fihns of the summer. They saw a silhouette of a person in the haze near the screen, first pointing a gun at the crowd and then shooting. "There were bullet (casings) just falling on my head. They were burning my forehead," Jennifer Seeger said, adding that the gunman, dressed like a SWAT team member, fired steadily except when he stopped to reload. "Every few seconds it was just: Boom, boom, boom," she said. "He would reload and shoot and anyone who would try to leave would just get killed." The suspect was taken into custody and identified by federal law enfurcement officials as 24-year-old James Holmes. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation. Authorities did not release a motive. The FBI said there was no indication of ties to any terrorist groups. Holmes had an assault rifle, a shotgun and two pistols, a federal law enforcement official See SHOOTING, 3A

part of the 1900s as well as a photo of a the Klan marching down Elgin's main street circa 1919.Also on display is a document from the "La Grande Klan Nwnber 14 Realm of Oregon'' with all of the terminology used by the members, which numbered more than 300 members. Also available to see is a copy of an application to join the Klan, asking such questions as, "Do you believe in the principles of PURE Americanism? Do you believe in White Supremacy?" The museum sells copies of"Inside the Klavem: The Secret Histo:ry of a Ku Klux Klan of the 1920s" by David Horowitz, an annotated collection of the minutes of the "thriving Ku Klux Klan in La Grande, Oregon, between 1922 and 1924." Kohler says she has been
asked why the museum includes the past some people would like to forget, and she says she always tells them, ''This was a part of our histo:ry." The museum has a display of wares and arts ofAmerican Indians as well, with enlarged photographs of people ofthe Nez Perce, Walla Walla, Cayuse, and Umatilla. Like the Chinese immigrants and the Jews, Catholics and blacks who were targets of the Klan, the tribes would suffer from the bigotry of some of the white settlers and their descendants and be displaced from regions they had inhabited long before any ofthe "PURE Americans" had anived. The past, good and bad, can't be eradicated, and the Union Cmmty Museum keeps it alive. Located at 333 S. Main in Union, the museum is open Monday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Wallowa County Museum to open
the Historic Wallowa County Museum. The main musewn building was built between 1875-1899 as the First Bank ofJoseph and is li'lted on the National Register of Historic Places. In the mid 1990s the abandoned fu·e hall building next door was acquired by the museum. This space had sat unfinished since that time. The updates included a full accessible addition to complement the fucade of the historic museun1. Other updates were a stucco base, board and batten siding, two lighted display cases and a parapet cap to match proportions of the museum. Pinnacle Architecture retrofitted the existing fire hall to meet ADA requirements with a new restroom, exterior egress paths on both the first and second floors, and proper access to the existing elevator. The additional interior space was used to provide a new exhibit hall, and an excellent workplace for the volunteer staff; whicl1 included an archive storage room.

said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the ongoing investigation. FBI agents and police used a hook and ladder fire truck to reach Holmes' apartment in Aurora, police Chief Dan Oates said. They put a camera at the end of a 12-foot pole inside the apartment, and discovered that the unit was booby trapped. Authorities evacuated five buildings as they tried to detennine how to disarm flammable and explosive material. Victims were being treated for chemical exposure ap-
parently related to canisters thrown by the gunman. Some of those injured are children, including a 4-month-old baby who was released from the hospital. Aurora police spokesman Frank Fania on ABC's "Good Morning America" said he didn't know yet if all the injuries were gunshot wounds. He said some might have been caused by other things such as shrapnel. Police released a ·written statement from Holmes' family: "Our hearts go out to those who were involved in this tragedy and to the families and friends of those involved." The movie opened across
the world Friday with midnight sho¥~mgs in the U.S. The shooting prompted officials to cancel the Paris premiere, with workers pulling down the red ca1pet display at a theater on the famed Champs-Elysees Avenue. President Barack Obama said he was saddened by the "horrific and tragic shooting," pledging that his administration was "collllllitted to bringing whoever was responsible to justice, ensuring the safety of our people, and caring for those who have been wounded." It was the worst mass shooting in the U.S. since the Nov. 5, 2009 attack at Fort Hood, Texas, when an Army psychiatrist killed 13 soldiers
and civilians and more than two dozen others wounded. In Colorado, it was the deadliest since the Columbine High School massacre on April20, 1999, when two students opened fire at the school in the Denver suburb of Littleton, killing 12 classmates and a teacher and wounding 26 others before killing themselves. The mall in Aurora, the state's third-largest city, has OOen the scene ofviolence befure. In July 2001, two men were shot and wounded inside the mall following an argument. In June 2005, a woman was killed and her boyfriend and a bystander were wounded following an
Coos Co. man arrested in black bear's death
argument inside the mall. Two men were arrested in that case, at least one of whom was sentenced to life in prison. Friday's attack began shortly after midnight at the multiplex theater. The film has several scenes of public mayhem - a hallmark of superhero movies. In one scene, the main villain Bane leads an attack on the stock exchange and, in another, leads a shooting and bombing rampage on a packed football stadium. It was the final installment of the "Dark Knight" trilogy directed by Christopher Nolan, starring Christian Bale as Batman.
NORTH BEND (AP) The authorities arrested a Coos County man accused of illegally killing a black bear and leaving it to waste. The Oregon State Police Fish and Wildlife division says 42-year-old John Gibson was aiTested at work Wednesday evening and taken to the county jail. The investigation into the July 9 shooting remains active.

The Sheriff's Office said officers in the house observed evidence ofthe liquor store

In addition to liquor store property, the officers recovered computer equipment taken in the burglary of a shop and residence on Lockwood Street, and a radio stolen from the Wallowa Fire Department. Ragsdale was also sentenced to 180 days for attempt to commit assault on a public safety office1; 13 months for second degree burglary, and 30 months for first degree burglary.

He said Ragsdale has a history of assault, resisting arrest, and escaping. "By nature you are a vmy violent person," said Dretke. "I don't often say this often, but there are some people who need to go to prison. Prison is the place for you; I have no reseivation. Ragsdale claimed to have no memory of any of the crimes.

New school feather in Imbler's cap Students may groan. Parents may cheer. But the start of the 2012-13 school year is just a rock skip and a hay bale's toss away. Yes, you heard right. Even though it seems as if summer vacation started just yesterday, classes in Imbler begin in just more than a month - Aug. 27 to be exact. It's great news to hear that the Imbler School District is close to getting its new $4 million elementary classroom building open for the start of the 2012-13 school year. Construction of the school started last fall. That was about a year after voters overwhelmingly approved a $4 million bond. Construction of the school is now virtually complete except fur minor finishing touches including waxingfloors. The new school vvill replace an aging elementary school complex. The main building was constructed in 1912. The gym, Wade Hall, was built in the late 1920s. The east wing classroom building opened in 1954. All three of these buildings will be tom down to increase the amount of playground space available. A new school is no guarantee of a great education. But it sure does help to have an excellent environment for the kids to leam in. Challenging, competitive public schools are a first step toward better, brighter communities and contribute greatly to the region's quality oflife. As we've said in this space many times before, an education investment now saves higher costs later. Congratulations to Imbler for having the guts to vote for the bond and pay the price for these new educational opportunities. Their investment in education is a long-term solution, not a quick fix. It's a great investment in the community - and shows a tremendous faith in the power of education to transform lives.

GUEST EDITORIAL
It's the fiscal cliff, stupid The following editorial appeared in the Los Angeles Times on Wednesday, July 18: Congressional Republicans thTew a fit this week after Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., said Democrats should let the Bush-era tax cuts expire for everyone, at least temporarily, if the GOP doesn't agree to end them just for upper-income Americans. House Speaker John A. Boelmm; R-Ohio, even suggested that Democrats were willing to "hurt jobs and tank our economy'' over the dispute. Boehner has some expe1ience witl1 tlmt - his House Republicans pushed the country to the brink of default last year rather than
strike a deal with Democrats on a debt-ceiling increase. Perhaps the public has heard enough hyperventilating by Washington pols to know better than to take it seriously. But the trouble with the current set of House Republicans is that, given the choice between compromising and hurting the economy, they've been choosing the latter.
Tax cuts expire At issue is what to do about the so-called fiscal cliff looming on Jan.1, 2013, when a number of temporary tax cuts expire and significant across-the-board spending reductions kick in. If those happen as scheduled, the Congressional Budget Office and Federal Reserve
Chairman Ben S. Bemanke have warned, the country could be thrown back into recession. Lawmakers have plenty of time to reach agreement on a multiyear plan to pare the deficit through spending cuts and tax increases, as several blue-ribbon groups have recommended. Boehner's troops in the House -whose antics on the debt ceiling led to the first downgrade of the U.S. credit rating in histo1y - don't seem interested in bargaining, however. Instead, they've been passing uncompromising bills to address the fiscal cliff that have no chance in the Democraticcontrolled Senate, such as one shrinking food stamps and other social programs in
order to spare the Defense Department from much of next year's cuts. Democrats shouldn't be cowed into embracing bad tax policy by Republicans who oppose any real increase in revenue even though most Ame1icans say they support a mix of tax hikes and spending cuts to eliminate the deficit. Boehner wants people to overlook the fact that extending tax cuts that pile on more debt will hrnt tlm economy too. But the biggest threat is that lawmakers will spend the rest of the year posturing instead ofhammming out a grand bargain that not only avoids the cliff; but assures the public that Washington can put its fiscal house in order.
Your views Quick response helps in horse-riding accident To the Editor: The Blue Mt. Riders want to recognize and profusely thank the paramedics, 911 operators, and LifeFlight pilots who responded during our mountain ride this past weekend. One ofour members was thrown off her horse and ended up unconscious, face down, and in some obvious trouble on the ground out in the boonies somewhere. God bless our members who are nurses, who attended her and made the decision to call an ambulance. As the rest of our 50-strong group searched for cell phone reception and finally reached two different 911 operators, the nurses gave feedback about her condition that the 911 operators sent on to the paramedics. Afamily camping nearby where the fallen rider lay unconscious provided exact crossroads infonnation, blankets, and any other assistance or objects we thought we

"They call it The Moving Wall because it travels from place to place, but there's another reason for the name. It's an emotionally moving experience," McConnack, a Marine who served in Vietnam 1967-69, said. McConnack said he saw The Moving Wall for a first time in California about 15 years ago, and resolved to visit The Vietnam Veterans Memmial Wall in Washington D.C. He said he never was able to do that, and so identifies \vith many others who want the experience but never get the chance to go. McConnack spearheaded the effort to bring The Moving Wall to La Grande, an effort that included rounding up sponsors, raising funds and recruiting an army of volunteers to help with the event. "The reason for wanting to bring it here is simple. I've tried to get there and couldn't," McConnack said. The Wall in Washington, D.C. was built in 1982 and bears the names of 58,195 service members who died in the Vietnam conflict. Designed to serve as a place of healing for those affected by one of the most divisive wars in United States history, the memorial is maintained by the National Parks Service. About three million people visit the monument in Washington annually. In the early 1980s, John DeVitt, who served in Vietnam as a helicopter gun chie~ came up with the idea of a replica that would travel the countty, giving thousands more people the chance to experience the wall. Traveling monument Devitt and fellow Californian veterans Gary Haver and Nmris Shears found funding and natiomvide support to create the Vietnam Veterans Memorial (Mobile). Construction got under way in February 1983. Today, the traveling monument is simply called The Moving Wall. It has appeared in hundreds of towns and military posts across the country. John Hennann, the chaplain who delivered Thursday's invocation, said The .Moving Wall is a fitting reminder of men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. "It serves as a constant reminder of those men and women, and it Jets their sac-

rifices be known to all future generations. They gave their all for the p1inciples of the founding fathers," Hennann said. The large crowd turning out for the opening Thursday included many Vietnam veterans. One ofthem, Army Sgt. Major Donald Tusten of La Grande, said he's been to the Washington Memorial and seen the names of22 ofhis comrades who died in the conflict. He said he feels grateful for the chance to experience the monument again. "I think it's the best idea Oregon has had," he said. "This brings home what Americans are all about. Civilians and military worked together to bring the wall to the community and remember our past history." Tusten is a Post 4060 member who was on hand to help ensure opening day events at the Gun Club ran smoothly. Another event volunteer was Mike Stertz of La Grande, a Marine who served in Vietnam from Novernbe1; 1966 to January, 1969. Stertz said he knew 12 of the men whose names grace the wall. Six of them, he said, were close friends. "I think it's great to keep it alive, the memories of our fallen comrades," he said. The Moving Wall will be open round the clock, until the closing ceremony 2 p.m. Monday. At 6:30p.m. each evening, there will be a ceremony dedicated to one branch of the
service, with a veteran guest speaker from that branch. At 7 each evening, tl1e flag will be retired, then raised again each day at 8 a.m. During Thursday night's Anny dedication, retired Captain Carole Halvorson was the main speaker.

SRi ritual Life Breakaway Catholic group reconciling schism with the Vatican VATICAN CITY (AP)-A breakaway group of traditionalist Roman Catholics sent the Vatican mixed messages Thursday about ending a quarter-century of schism, indicating that there's still no resolution in sight for realizing one of Pope Benedict XVI's key priorities as pope. The Swiss-based Society of St. Pius X said it had approved the technical, legal way it could eventually rec-
oncile with the Holy See. But at the same time, it said it is still waiting for an "open and serious debate" to begin with the Vatican to bring church authorities around to its view ofthe "errors" of the modernizing refunns ofthe Second Vatican Council. The late Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre founded the society in 1969 out of opposition to Vatican II's introduction of Mass in the vernacular and
outreach to Jews and people of other faiths, among other issues. In 1988, the Vatican excommunicated Lefebvre and four of his bishops after he consecrated them without papal consent. Benedict has spent nearly his entire pontificate seeking to accommodate the society and end the only fonnal schism created since Vatican II. He has restored the use of the old Latin Mass favored
by the society's members, removed the bishops' excommunications and allowed them two years of theological dialogue with the Vatican. Aside from being sympathetic to the society's point of view, Benedict fears the growth of a parallel, preVatican II church that is even more conservative than his own. But the society, which boasts 550 priests and 200-
plus seminarians, has so far refused to sign offon a core set of doctrinal points required by the Vatican to come back into the fold, and has said more talks are necessary. Last month, the Vatican fonnally proposed a way to bring it back in, saying the society could exist within the church as a "personal prelature"- essentially a diocese without borders, which would enable it
to most easily maintain its identity and liturgical traditions. In a statement Thursday, the society said its recent general meeting had "detennined and approved the necessary conditions fur an eventual canonical nonnalization" in relations with the Vatican. The conditions maintain that the society's leadership would take a vote about reconciling, if it gets to that stage.

HIGHLIGHTS Grace Lutheran looking at Mark 6 On the eighth Sunday after Pentecost, Grace Lutheran Church in Enterprise will begin worship at 9 a.m. Pastor Wayne Hass will preside over the worship service with the celebration of Holy Communion. When Jesus sent his disciples out to teach and heal, they ministered among large numbers of people. Yet in Sunday's gospel Mark 6; Jesus advises his disciples to get away and rest, to take care of themselves. Sometimes we think that when othel's are in need we shouldn't think of ournelves at all. But Jesus also honors the caregivers' need. We are sent from Christ to care for others and for ourselves. The Blue Mt. Chapter of Thrivent Financial will have its annual picnic at noon on Sunday July 29, at Fred Beeman Park in Island City. Lunch will be provided.

Visitors and travelers are always welcome - come as you are. Coffee, refreshments and fullowship follow the service. This week's gospel lesson from Mark 6 finds Jesus and his disciples tired and exhausted. Jesus suggests they all go away to a deserted place to rest and be renewed. Jesus often looks for a lonely place to feel the presence of God and find God's direction for his life. We can be encomaged to think that when we are lonely and tired God is ve1y near to us too.

Former Seattle bellman stops in La Grande on walking trip across the United States By Don ller The Observer
It's a long way to Miami. Especially when you're traveling by foot. Greg Hamblock, a former Seattle bellman who grew up in Montana, is on his way from
Cape Flatery on the comer of Washington's Olympic Peninsula to Miami. He stopped Tuesday in La Grande on his cross country 1rip. Hamblock is raising money for two children in Baton Rouge, La. to send them to
private school. Hamblock says he runs about 30 to 33 miles per day on average, camping most nights and spending others in motels along the way. "The thing that has really an1azed me is how kind people
have been," Hamblock said. People have stopped to give him water and he says that a man paid for his breakfast the other day when he was in llichland, Wash. While he still has quite a bit of country ahead ofhim, Ham-
block says his favorite place so far has been Mount Rainier. But even the less spectacular spots still stand out. "Every day is beautiful. Even going through grain fields, I feel like I'm in a really good landscape painting."
For more infunnation about Hamblock's trip and his goal to raise money check out his funclraising site at incliegogo.com/perspiration4education. You can also follow him on Twitter@ persp4education.

Wiggins keeps yellow jersey BRIVE-LA-GAIL: LAROE, France (AP) - BradleyWiggins moved closer to aTour de France victory, keeping the yellow jersey on a day teammate and British countryman Mark Cavendish won the 18th stage. Wiggins and Cavendish exchanged a long hug after the finish Friday. Cavendish, largely overshadowed by his Sky teammate, won a stage for the second time on this Tour. He has 22 stage victories for his career- the same number as seventime champion Lance Armstrong. The mostly flat ride along four small hills covered 138 miles from Blagnac to Brive-la-Gaillarde, a transitional stage before Saturday's time trial. The three-week race ends Sunday in Paris. Wiggins, Cavendish and the Sky team made it look easy with an almost textbook sprint setup. With less than a mile to go, Wiggins took the head of the pack and chased down six breakaway riders, then peeled away. The Sky train motored ahead and Cavendish- showing he's perhaps the world's most explosive rider whirred around the remaining escapees in the last several hundred yards and won by a couple of bike lengths. Luis Leon Sanchez, seeing Cavendish speed by, appeared to sigh with resignation. Cavendish was followed by runnerup Matt Goss of Australia and Peter Sagan of Slovakia in third place.
Luck signs four-year deal INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Rest easy, Indianapolis Colts fans. The Andrew Luck era can now begin. The Colts signed the Stanford quarterback and No. 1 overall pick in the draft to a four-year, $22.1 million deal on Thursday, Luck's agent and uncle, Will Wilson, confirmed the deal. The deal is similar to the one signed by Cam Newton a year ago and the one signed this week by Robert Griffin Ill. Newton, last year's top pick, has a fouryear, $22 million deal with Carolina and Griffin, who went No. 2 behind Luck in April's draft signed a four-year contract with the Washington Redskins worth $21.1 million guaranteed, with a club option for a fifth year.

Legacy's Tyson Wicklander runs down Hermiston's Michael Moya in the Legends' 3-2 victory in Game 2Wednesday at Optimist Field. La Grande split the doubleheader, falling in the opener, 9-6.
legends split with Spuds By Casey Kellas The Observer
For the second night in a row, La Grande's Legacy Legends split with the Hermiston Spuds in an American Legion doubleheader Wednesday night. The Legends fell in the opener 9-6, but bounced back for a 3-2 victory in Game 2. The early innings of Game 1 saw two different delays due to rain and lightning in the area. The Spuds used the energy in the air to jump all over the hosts, taking an 8-0 lead through the :first three innings. "I don't think it really had an effect on us," coach Brian Chamberlain said of the weather. "I think we're used to it by now." But once the weather settled down, the Legends seemed to mellow out with it. A hard hit ball to third base by Denick Peasley brought home Josh Gambill to put Legacy on the board in the bottom ofthe fourth inning. But the Spuds answered with a run in the top of the fifth to get the lead back to eight runs. Hermiston replaced starting pitcher Jason Almaguer for Heath Baldock a couple of batters into the bottom of the seventh, and the Change was just what the
Legends needed. Seth Madsen came through with a two-run double, followed by an RBI single by Gambill to make it 9-4. A bases-loaded walk by Kaleb White and an RBI on a fielder's choice by Logan Lankfmd cut the score to 9-6. But the comeback came up short after a flyout by Jake Chamberlain ended the game. "We battled back. I told the kids to sit on the curve. Just relax at the plate," Coach Chamberlain said. "When we want we can really hit the ball." Lankford, Gambill and Mitch Workinger all had two hits for Legacy. Madsen was one for four with a double and two RBis. Workinger took the loss after going the :first three innings and striking out three while alluwing six hits. Madsen pitched four innings in relie~ striking out five. Game 2 was a little more of what the Legends had in mind. Behind a solid outing by starting pitcher Jordan Rogers, the Legacy kept the Hermiston bats at bay fur most of the game. After a scoreless :first three innings on both sides, the Legends finally scratched a couple of runs across in the fourth. Rogers scored after an er-
rant pickoff throw at second base went into centerfield. The ensuing throw to third base went into the dugout, allowing Rogers to come home. Brandon Cedarholm followed with an RBI single that brought home Eli Wisdom and the Legends led 2-0. Hermiston turned a Legacy error into a run in the top of the fifth, but an RBI single by White in the bottom half of the inning got the lead to 3-1. Rogers, meanwhile, was solid on the mound. He went five innings and struck out four, limiting the baserunners by Hermiston. He was replaced by Hayden Albrecht in the sixth. Albrecht looked comfortable in his :first action in a while after a stint away from the team, but the Spuds threatened in the bottom of the seventh. An error and back-to-back walks loaded the bases for Hermiston, before Baldock brought home a run on a groundball to make it 3-2. But Albrecht got out of the jam on a flyout to right field that White made a diving catch on to end the game. Rogers picked up the win, while Albrecht struck out one in two innings of relief. "Jordan pitched well. Having Hayden back helps. Just having some arms really helps," Chamberlain said. Lankford and Wicklander

Union County picks up 10-0 vvin over Tualatin Hills By Casey Kellas The Observer
Casey Kellas/ The Observer
Tanner Stremcha had two strikeouts in two innings Thursday in a 10-0 win .
BAKER CITY - Union County made quick work of Tualatin Hills Wednesday in opening play of the 15-year-old North Oregon Babe Ruth state tournament. Union County won a decisive 10-0 decision in five innings to set the tone for the weekend. '~Ve played well," manager Dick Griffin said. '~Ve reached some of our goals. The kids have been good about setting and reaching their goals." After a scoreless :first inning, Union County went to work in the second. Troy Williams got the team on the board when he came home on a bad pick-off attempt on a Tanner Stremcha stolen base. Andrew Hively followed that with an RBI triple before Eli

Childs hit a two-run double and Union County was in Charge, 4-0. "We didn't know what we were going to face. We had heaTd that Tualatin Hills didn't have the type of team they have had in the past. But it's always just one game at a time," Griffin said. After Childs scored on an error, KUit Boyd hit an RBI single to stretch the lead to 6-0. Union County added to the lead in the bottom of the fourth. Eli Wisdom drove in Childs and J.C. Rogers on a two-run double, before Williams brought in a run on an RBI groundout. A bases-loaded walk by Joe Griffin put the lead at 10-0. Tualatin Hills was able to load the bases in the top of the fifth inning, but Griffin ended the game on back-to-back strikeouts and sealed the victory for
Union County. "It was another day at the office for these boys. I think they were a little overanxious with the bats early on. But they have a Jot of confidence," the elder Griffin said. Childs finished two for four with two RBis, while Wisdom drove in two runs while going one for three. As a team Union County finished with seven hits. Three pitchers held Tualatin Hills to just one hit for the game. Stremcha started and pitched two innings, striking out two to record the win. Boyd then can1e in and struck out one before being replaced by Griffin in the fifth inning. Union County faced off with Snake River Valley today at 10 in another round of pool play. The title game will be Sunday.

Snedeker storms to British lead with a six-under 64 LYTHAM ST. ANNES, England (AP)On a day filled with wayward shots, Brandt Snedeker was steady as can be at the British Open. The 31-year-old Tennessean, who had never even made the cut in golfs oldest major, surged to the lead with another bogeyfree round, shooting a 6-under 64 Friday that left him tied with Nick Faldo for the lowest 36-hole score in Open history. Faldo posted a 130 total at Muirfield in 1992 on the way to the last of his three British titles. Snedeker matched him with a 10-under showing over the first two days, and can only hope that come Sunday he'll be in the same position Faldo was two decades ago- holding the claret jug. Snedeker kept up his assault on the fairways, the key to navigating the claustrophobic layout at Royal Lytham & St. Annes. He rapped in four birdies on the front side to make the turn with a 4-under 30. He rolled in a 25-footer for another birdie at the par-5 11th, then put his tee shot in the middle of the green on the par-3 12th and calmly sank the putt - his sixth birdie of the round. He's got 10 of those over the first two days. Just as important, he has yet to make a bogey. First-round leader Adam Scott teed offin the aftemoon after tying the corn-se record with a 64 on Thursday, a mark that Snedeker matched again 24 hours later. Scott's advantage was gone by the time he stepped on the course and he was even on the day as he approached the tum, four strokes behind the new leader. Also at 6 under was Paul Lawrie, best known as the guy who won at Camoustie in 1999 when Jean Van de Velde had his historic meltdown on the 72nd hole. Zach Johnson also pushed to 6 under until a double-bogey at the brutal third hole knocked him back. Johnson was joined at 4 under by Tiger Woods, seeking his 15th major title and first in more than four years. Woods opened with a 67 and pushed his score lower into the red with a birdie at the fourth. Graeme McDowell and James Monison were 3 under. No one else in the clubhouse was closer than eight strokes behind Snedeker, who is best remembered for making an emotional

XTERRA Triathlon returns to Morgan Lake The annual XTERRA Offroad Triathlon will take place at Morgan Lake Saturday. A lK swim in the mountain water just above La Grande V~-ill start things off. A 25k bike course through the ponderosa and tamarak pines of the Blue Mountains, up a long climb on Glass Hill Road, and then through some crazy descents including the infamous Suicide Hill will follow. A lOk mn on a challenging mix of terrain on dirt roads and trails wraps up the competition.

run at the 2008Masters and winding up in a tie fur third. Otherwise, he's never been much of a factor in the majors; in fact, he was 0-for-3 in making the cut at his previous British Opens. That wasn't a concem this time, not tl1e way he's been playing. Snedeker proved there were plenty of birdies to be had if you kept the ball in the fairway. For many players, though, that proved to be elusive. Rory Mcilroy, who opened with a 67, knocked his ball onto an adjoining tee box at No.3, needed a couple of whacks to escape a towering pot bunker on the ninth, and struggled to a 75 that left a daunting 10 strokes out of the lead. "It's just tough when you're really trying to get something going and it's just not quite happening," Mcilroy said. Phil Mickelson, the runner-up last year at Royal St. George but never an Open cllampion, could've warmed up the jet before he even made the tum. Three double-bogeys led to a 78 and an 11-over 151 total. Only eight players had a higher score when he departed the club, having failed to make the cut for only the fourth time in 19 Open appearances. "I really don't know what to say," Mickelson said after his worst Open round since 2008. "I obviously played tenible." Nicolas Colsaerts was nearly as bad. After surprising in the opening round with a 65, the big-hitting Belgian fell apart Friday, running into trouble right away with back-to-hack bogeys at Nos. 2 and 3 before making a total mess of the pm~5 seventl1, normally one of the easier holes on the course. His third shot missed the green, winding up in the dreaded rough. He flubbed his attempted escape, the ball going 10 yards and remaining in the tall grass. Barely able to see it, Colsaerts took another big swing and apparently missed. Finally, he chunked it out on his third try, the ball zipping over the green. A pitch and a putt left him with a triple-bogey 8. He went from a contender to barely above the p1ujected cutline at 142 total. No. 1-ranked Luke Donald gave the English fans a thrill with four birdies in five holes on the front side, pushing him onto the leaderboard.

Hernandez shuts down Royals, 6-1 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -Even with Felix Hemanclez pitching for quick outs instead of trying to overpower hitters, the Kansas City Royals couldn't solve the Seattle Mariners' ace. Hernandez won his fourth straight decision, Jesus Montero homered and drove in four runs as the Mariners beat tl1e Royals 6-1 Thrn-sday. "He pitclled outstanding," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "He didn't throw the heat as much. He wasn't trying to overpower us. He had good two-seam action and commanded the ball as well as any pitcller we've seen this year." With the temperature above 100 for most of the gmne, Hemandez eschewed his normal routine of striking out 10 or more. Coming in with a major leagueleading 143 strikeouts, he finished with three - tying a season low. "He had a good breaking ball and kept the ball doV~-n, pitched to contact," Yost said. "He did a good job of getting quick outs. He was throwing strikes and commanding the ball down, using both sides of the plate. You can have a low pitch count if you do that." Hemandez (8-5) is 4-0 with a 1.37 ERA in his past seven starts since a loss to San Diego on June 12. He allowed one run and eight hits, throwing only 89 pitches in eight innings. "He was locating multiple pitches and has aboveaverage stuff;" said Chris Getz, who drove in the lone Royals run. ''You can never get too comf01table against him. How can you? He's the kind
of guy where you can't be behind in the count." Hernandez said he was not thinking about the heat. "I know it was hot." Hernandez said. "I just tried to throw strikes and get quick outs. ... I was not trying to pitch to contact, but just throw strikes." Hernandez labored only in a 24-pitcll eighth inning when the Royals loaded the bases with one out. Hernandez got out ofthat jam by striking outAlcides Escobar and retiring Billy Butler on a grounder. "He really only had to work that last inning," Mariners manage Eric Wedge said. ''That was big too. That game gets real close, real quick if one of those guys comes tlnuugh. He really stepped up right there those last two hitters." The Mariners jumped on Royals rookie left-hander Will Smith (1-3) for three runs in tl1e second with Montero leading off the inning with his ninth home run. "It was a bad pitcll, 1-2," Smith said. "That's supposed to be a pitcher's count." Michael Saunders had an RBI single and Brendan Ryan added a sacrifice fly in the inning. Hemandez and a threerun lead proved to be insurmountable. "It was more that he was working you away and then busting you inside," said Jarrod Dyson, who singled in the eighth offHemandez. "He had every pitch working in the wne." Smith, just recalled from Triple-A Omaha, gave up four runs on eight hits in 6 1-3 innings, wlrile walking two and striking out five.

Arbiters reiect us argument in international limber dispute
Local dancers shine at national competition Local dancers recently traveled to Seaside to participate in Spotlights national dance cup competition. Dance Arts Inc., owned and directed by Patricia Sandlin, took 10 soloists and four groups to compete. This was the fourth year the studio has competed in nationals.

The junior high tean1 (Starstruck) received the overall first place national title and Lost in Paradise, a solo performed by Kylin Colhnan, received the overall first place national title as well as the cut-above judges choice award, and age category award. Both routines were choreographed and directed by Sandlin. All of the dancers received high marks for their efforts, Sandlin said. Other diamond first placements were earned

Anyone for some fist-cuits and gravy? Miss Oregon
R
ight off; let's get one thing straight: the Sea Hag in Depoe Bay is not one of those fancy restaurant where you get several atoms of meat and a baby pea as the main course. And it's not one ofthose places where you can get $14-a-pound ostrich salami. But the coastal oasis does expand gastronomic horizons. The highlight of the menu? Fist-cuits and gravy. Yes, you heard right. Fistcuits. These are biscuits as big as a fisherman's fist- but better smelling. That's not the main course. The main course, at least for me, was an oyster omelette made with ample oysters fresh from the bottom of the bay. The highway to heaven is paved with oysters. Of course, Wonder Woman, my wife, fails to appreciate oyster cuisine. The sight and smell of oysters causes her to make faces seen otherwise only in a

lemon-eating contest at the county fair. We were on a mini-vacation: a wedding in Eugene, an overnight stay in Albany followed by a breathtaking trip to the Oregon Coast. Such a quick trip is not unusual for those of us from the hinterlands of Eastern Oregon. Some weekends we just need to get away from the sensory deprivation of cow-tipping, jackhammer pickup trucks and work. Escape from work Yes, the new three-day-aweek Observer runs like a Midwest thunderstorn1. The heat builds and builds, then everything explodes and all is quiet for a moment or two with birds singing in what is left ofthe cottonwood trees. Then the whole cycle starts again. I was glad to be away from deadlines for 48 hours, even
though Depoe Bay is not totally safe. You have to be careful not to be run over by crowds of double chins and love handles. Abusing carbs, not baseball, is now the No. 1 American pastime, and that is true in Depoe Bay as much as anywhere. It's no wonder Americans buy 40 percent of the world's indigestion remedies and are also diet-crazed. One in three are overweight. The other two are lying. Still, as long as we get the daily requirements of whole milk, preservative, sugar and cholesterol, we end the day with a blissedout smile. The Sea Hag specialty will do nothing to reduce double chins. Spread some butter on a fresh-baked fist-cuit and some raspberry freezer jam and you will be transported to culinary heaven. You11 probably also develop love handles the size of third-world countries, but that is another story altogether.

• See amazing animals Saturday afternoon at Wallowa School
Wallowa County is invited to see Corbin Maxey, 'The Reptile Guy," at the Wallowa School Saturday at 1 p.m. Maxey will be at the Beth Johnson Room at the Wallowa School. The program is made possible by donations from Friends ofWallowa Public Library and the Wallowa Community Resale Store. The show is free to the public. Experience the wonder, excitement and talent of Maxey and his amazing animals. With his unique approach through Iris exciting live animal shows, Maxey educates, entertains, and wins over audiences of all ages with his energetic personality, amazing animals, and humorous antics. Maxey is a 22-year-old nationally recognized animal expert, specializing in reptiles, and is most notable from his numerous appearances on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,""The Today Show" and various other national and local television programs. For over a decade, Corbin and his reptile friends have been visiting schools, libraries, zoos, aquariums and private events sharing his love of animals while promoting
the respect and appreciation of all nature. Corbin has been surrounded by wildlife for as long as he can remember. He spent the majority ofhis childhood in the mountains of Southem Idaho where he spent his days observing snakes, lizards, frogs and toads. He even developed an exotic animal collection, which included his first lizard named Booger. Maxey's passion for all animals influenced his decision to commit his .l:i:fu to them. At the early age of 12, Maxey founded Cyprus Hill Reptile Reserve, a nonprofit organization located in Meridian, Idaho, dedicated to reptile rescue, conservation and education. To tlris day, Maxey has found homes for hundreds of homeless, abused and neglected reptiles and amphibians. At the age of 14, Maxey wrote, produced, and starred in "Reptile Rampage," a weekly live performance at a local accredited zoo featuring Shere Khan an albino Burmese python, Soni the alligator, Tinkerbelle the tortoise and Scooter the iguana. The show was an instant success and attracted thousands of people and helped spread the
Sipping lemonade
O
ne day many years ago I purchased a water pitcher. It wasn't exactly what I wanted, but it was the closest thing I could find to the one in my memory. It was clear glass. I say glass for lack of a better word. Crystal doesn't seem appropriate, for it is thick and heavy, swirls muddying its contents, and has no charming expensive chime to it when struck lightly V\lith a silver utensil. It has fairly straight sides, narro~ing slightly at its top where a lip holds back ice when lemonade comes forth in the hot summertin1e. There are swirls that reach from the bottom to the top at just enough angle to give the pitcher a little obtuse look. I describe itfor you so tlmt you can see where memory fills in the blanks and you see things as you remember tilem ratiler than as tiley really were. I bought this one because it reminds me of my Grandmother Hofinann. My Grandmofuer's pitcher was pink, not clear. I'm not sure that it was shaped exactly like mine except for the handle, the pouring spout, and tl1e fact tl1at I couldn't see through it clearly because of the molded swirls. My pitcher reminds me of my loving Grandmother. I'm not really sure why. It happened when I fi1st saw mine on the store shelf I had been searching for one for many years, but none had ever spoken to me in quite that way before, so I had to take it home. Of all things that reminded me of my mofuer's mother, it was the pitcher that I would love to have had for my own. I have no idea what became of it, but it would have gone to another's shelf in such a large family. I know now that the pitcher had to be pink depressionglass and probably monetarily worth a husky sum of money. Much as I treasure antiques, the fact ofits being depression-glass would have no bearing. I would never have parted with it. It would be the vision of my Grandmotl1er pouring lemonade into our glasses

held up for her administrations oflove. The liquid went with the store bologna (baloney, we called it) on commercially-baked and sliced bread sandwiches, and tile packaged cookies, a treat in those days. This was when she still had the neighborhood grocery store at 301 Fourth St. in La Grande and lived in the back part of tile store with a door connecting to the business. She could easily go between the two when family came and stayed for lunch. There would always be at least an aunt or two, with my cousins in tow, who were also tilere, so it always seemed like a minor party-type atrnosphe1e. The adults would fix the sandwiclles and send the kids to the back porch to sit on the steps to eat while they visited around the kitchen table. I've always wondered how Grandma's drinking glasses survived the children, for plastic ware was still a long time in coming. Spills, probably. Broken glass, never. Why that scene remains so strongly etched in my memory, I cannot say, for there are still so many other things to remember as being special. However, it haunts me frequently, bidding my retum to tlwse days ofbologna sandwiches and my Grandma pouring real lemonade with bits oflemon floating in it from her pink pitcher. Last summer I again took my colorless pitcher from its shelf and kept it in the refrigerator filled with pink lemonade from a store mixture. The color ofits powder turned my pitcher pink like Grandma's for the moment. For those few minutes of sipping lemonade poured from a pretend pink depression-glass pitcher, I am a child back in Grandma's kitchen receiving love from Grandmotllei; Motl1e1; Aunts and Cousins by way of liquid gold and ''baloney'' sand~iclles.

Maxey has since worked in conjunction with top zoological facilities such as SeaWorld Orlando, San Diego, San Antonio, and Buscll Gardens Africa where he worked with all different types of animals including orcas, bottlenose dolphins, beluga whales, tigers, giraffes, penguins, primates and reptiles.

Heat can change effects of medication ST. LOUIS- Heat, like the recent heat wave, can change the effectiveness of medications for people and their pets. People need to check the instructions about temperature and storage, says Jill Sailors, assistant professor of pharmacy practice at St. Louis College of Pharmacy. "Make sure that medications are kept away from direct sunlight at home and do not store medication in the bathroom where the temperature varies with bathing and showering. Also, make sure not to leave medications in your car;' Sailors said. Ideally, medicine should be stored between 68 and 77 Fahrenheit unless it needs refrigeration, she said. For people with diabetes, high temperatures can result in increased blood sugar and effect how refrigerated insulin works, she said. Some medications can increase dehydration and interfere with the body's ability to cool itself, she said. People taking seizure medication, antihistamines, blood pressure medication, neurologic or psychiatric medication need to drink more water. - Harry Jackson Jr. St. Louis PostDispatch

Dr. Kevin Grayson, a pediatrician at Grande Ronde Hospital's Children's Clinic, said to watch for these symptoms of heat exhaustion: • elevated temperature • fast heart rate • excessive sweating • nausea and vomiting • headache and dizziness • excessive thirst Another sign is mild confusion that gets better when the child is taken to a cooler enviromnent. "Getting them out of the heat is the first thing," Grayson said. If not recognized, heat exhaustion can lead to heat stroke, which could come with a body temperature above 104 degrees.

to heat stroke pretty quickly." Another warning sign is a beet-red face and the lack of

can't complain ofheadaches and such, so Grayson says to watch how they act for signs of heat exhaustion. "If the kids just aren't feeling well, if there's any question about how they're acting," he said. On the hottest days, he says to ''be careful with excessive activity."
ummer is also when sunblock appears on the store shelves, but protecting skin should be a year-round priority, says Dr. Carl Thornfeldt, of CT Derm in Fruitland, Idaho. And there's a certain way to apply sunscreen, too. You need two applications, 30 minues apart, applied to cool, dry skin. "Sunscreens bind to the outer layer of skin," Thornfeldt said. "You put it on sweaty skin and it's worthless." He said studies have shown than most people use only 25 percent of the recommended amount of sunscreen. And when you use less than recommended, it means you're not getting the full SPF specified on the bottle (SPF stands for sun protection factor). See Heat/Page 2B

Licensed to heal • John Combe, a licensed massage therapist from La Grande, has worked with athletes at the past two Olympic Trials By Dick Mason The (La Grande) Obse1ver
LA GRANDE - What do Olympic-caliber track and field athletes talk about hours before a critical competition? The subjects discussed often concern everything but track and field. John Combe of La Grande knows this well, for herecently completed his second stint of working as a licensed massage therapist for athletes at the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials at Hayward Field in Eugene. He was one of25licensed massage therapists selected to provide help to athletes at the trials. The therapists stretched and loosened the athletes before competition, afterwards provided treatment to flush out acid from muscles to speed recovery, advised their coaches of their athletes' condition and what workouts and exercises would be best to maintain or improve their condition and more. Combe said athletes would talk to him about a wide variety oftopics, track and field often was not one of them. "Everything was not track

related. They wanted a little mental distraction," said Combe, who also worked as a licensed massage therapist at the 2008 Olympic Trials in Eugene. Only athletes and coaches were allowed in the treatment facility to protect athletes from tans and the glare of the media spotlight. ''They are so submerged in track and field. We wanted to provide a refuge during treatment sessions," Combe said. Combe worked with 15 athletes at the trials. They included included Brady Gehret of Penn State Uni-
versity, who made the finals in the 400-meters dash, and Katie Mackey of the University ofWashington, a finalist in the 1,500-meter run. Many retired track and field legends were at the trials including Jackie JoynerKersee, who Combe met. The heptathlete and long jumper won a total three gold medals, one silver and two bronze medals at four Olympic Games. Combe said Kersee was heartened by the interest in track and field shown in Eugene at the trials. He found her to be a very "connectable" individual and a delight to talk to. Combe worked at least 10 hours a day throughout the trials. The days were intense, especially during the twoday break in the middle of the trials. This was when athletes cmne in for many treatment sessions. ''When everyone else was resting we were working harder than ever," Combe said.
Early in the trials an NBC Sports TV crew came into the treatment facility to do a feature program on the license massage therapist staff. Combe was among

these interviewed for a segment which aired on NBC Sports. He had little time to compose his thoughts. "They did it live and unannounced. They wanted to catch us in acton," Combe said. The U.S. Olympic Trails were the not the first Olympic trills Combe has worked at this year. In June he worked at the Olympic trials for Kenya's mens and wornens 10,000-meter rum1ers. These trials were conducted
at Hayward Field in part because Kenya's Olympic committee wanted to select its team's 10,000-meter runners based on a competition at sea level. They wanted to do this because London, site of the Summer Olympics, is near sea level. Most of Kenya is at high altitude. Combe said the Kenyan distance runners graciously accepted any assistance the licensed massage therapists staff provided. See Olympics/Page 2B

He said the talent of Kenyan distance runners, a dominant world force for decades, is amazing. "They compete because they are naturally good. In the United States many people compete because they hope to become good." The Kenyan 10,000-meter Olympic trials were conducted the day prior to the Prefontaine Classic before thousands of fans at Hayward Field. The U.S. Olympic Trials drew an average of close more than 20,000 fans a day. The fans are knowledgable and and wildly enthusiastic. Combe said this helps and hinders athletes. Some are energized by the electric environment and others are hurt by the additional pressure the atmosphere creates. "The key is channeling the magic of Hayward Field to help rather than hinder you," said Combe, who was named Oregon's Licensed Massage Therapist of the year in 2005. Combe's recent Olympic
"The protection factor of 30 turned out to be a factor offour," he said. His own skin care routine is to apply sunblock after he shaves, then he eats breakfast and prepares for the day. He applies another layer before leaving the house, optimally; 30 minutes before going outside. If you work outside, he said the sunblock sprays are effective if you can't dry and cool your skin enough for the liquid sunblock. He recommends the Banana Boat spray with a 115 SPF. (Spray sunscreens, by the way, should be applied about three inches from the skin.) "That binds really well to wet skin," he said Yes - he said SPF 115. "We recommend high numbers because people won't put on enough."

First peanuts, now eggs. Doctors have reversed allergies in some children and teens by giving them tiny daily doses of problem foods, gradually training their immune systems to accept them. In the best test of this yet, about a dozen kids were able to overcome allergies to eggs, one ofthe most ubiquitous foods, lurking in everything from pasta and veggie burgers to mayonnaise and even marshmallows. Some of the same doctors used a similar approach on several kids with peanut allergies a few years ago. Don't try this yoursel~ though. It takes special products, a yem· or more and close supervision because severe reactions remain a risk, say doctors involved in the study; published in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine. "This experimental therapy can safely be done only by properly trained physicians," says a statement from Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the federal agency that sponsored the study. It didn't work for everyone, and some dropped out of the study because of allergic reactions. But the results "really do show there is promise for future treatment" and should be tested now in a wider group of kids, said the study's leader, Dr. A Wesley Burks, pediatrics chief at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. More than 2 percent of young children have egg

resulted in 97 percent fewer pre-malignant cells than SPF 15. Most sunblock labels contain the initials UVB, which causes skin to redden and burn, and UVA, which causes aging and wrinkling. Sunblocks labeled as ''broad spectrum" protect against both UVA and UVB. The sunblock he uses daily is one he developed called Epionce, which he says provides a hamer to the sun and anti-inflammatory properties.

Man pays for one-night stand with seven-year punishment DEAR ABBY: Seven years ago, willie on a business trip to Europe, I went to a bar, got drunk and went back ro my hotel with one of the "hostesses."

However, I am a sociable, friendly person, and llike to share laughs and light-hearted conversation with members ofboth sexes. Although my wife claims to have forgiven me, she constantly brings up my "fling" and makes it clear that she doesn't trust me to this day, despite my repeated apologies, my desire to make amends and my determination never to do it again. She has made my life a living hell. She has an extreme!y caustic longue U1aL she uses aL every opportunity to embarrass and humiliate me. rno longer love her, but her health isn't the best and she hasn't worked for several years.

(AP)- A western Permsylvania man tried to persuade a judge to give him less prison time for four incident<; in which he threatened people with gw1S during drug deals by arguing that he was hanning only "bad people just like me." The Daily American of Somerset reports Somerset County Judge Jolm Cascio wasn't persuaded and sentenced 30-yearold James Vance-Ivey Jr. to 18 months to five years in prison for endangerment, threat and drug charges on Thursday. Cascio explained to Vance-Ivey that "even people with criminal records have rights and have the right to be protected by the law and by the Constitution." The defendant had argued that his actions weren't justified, but told the judge he wasn't targeting "a workin' man or some lawabiding citizen. These are all bad people, just like me."

2 peacocks roost at post office in central Ohio
Police on trail of pig sculpture pilfered
ORIENT, Ohio (AP)- Customers at a central Ohio post office are getting an unusual greeting from a pair of peacocks that have taken to roosting on the roof and roaming the parking lot. The birds have settled in at a post office in Orient, less than 15 miles southwest of Columbus. Local resident Daisy Orsbon says though the birds make plenty of noises, they mostly stand near the door and don't really bother anybody. WBNS-TV reports post office officials aren't sure where the peacocks came from. None of the area fanns that have peacocks have claimed the birds. For now, they're simply being allowed to roan1 the site.
GARDEN CITY, Mich. (AP)Police on the lookout for a plmnp pig sculpture that was pilfured from a Detroit suburb are getting closer to finding the missing swine. The Garden City Downtown Development Authmity said Thursday that those possibly responsible for taking the shiny, red sculpture known as 'Willy'' or ''Willie" last month led them to near Mallard Lake. It's in Livingston County's Green Oak 'lbwnship, about 35 miles northwest of Detroit. The base of the sculpture was found in a field along with other fragments. Police say they believe the pig also was ditched in the area, but someone else took it away. The $6,000-plus sculpture titled "Cochon Rouge" by artist Sophie Marie had been leased to the Downtown Development Authority for two years. A $500 rewmd is being offered in the case.
Pa. man nabbed for DUI at state police barracks
More than 1,000 turtles slowly escape captivity
CORRY, Pa. (AP) - State police say a man showed up at a northwestern Pennsylvania barracks by driving under the influence of alcohol. Troopers from the Cony barracks tell the Titusville Herald that 49-year-old Timothy Shrock came to the barracks Thursday to be fingerprinted for another recent offense. That's when troopers determined he was drunk, processed him and released him. Hell be mailed a summons to answer the drunken driving charge. Online comi records don't list an attorney for Shrock, whose home phone number was disconnected Friday.

London's Cockneys compete for Olympic attention LONDON (AP) - It's a safe bet that most of the 200 or so countries competing in the London Olympics are already represented in the British capital, one of the world's most multicultural cities.

underdog combativeness has always been part of the Cockney character. Cockneys speak in a distinctive accent, marked by elongated vowels, dropped 'H's and glottal stops imagine the chm·acters from the UK soap opera "EastEnders" - and use a distinctive form of rhyming slang, in which "would you believe it" becomes "would you Adam

Cockney traditions flourished in the tight-knit communities of London's East End, but the area has been transforn1ed since World War II, when thousands of homes were destroyed - and thousands of people diedin German bombing. The area is a magnet for newcomers because ofits proximity to the city's docks.

BAKER COUNTY
NORTHEAST ZONE WEEKEND FISHING OPPORTUNITIES
COUGAR: Cougars can be found throughout Baker County but 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. COYOTE: Coyote numbers are good throughout the district. Try calling in early morning and late afternoon. Remember to ask for permission before hunting on private property. SQUIRRELS: Ground squirrels are out and active throughout the valley. Hunters should find good numbers of squirrels when the weather cooperates; remember to ask permission before hunting on private property. UNION COUNTY
GROUND SQUIRRELS: Squirrels are up and active. Remember, always ask first to hunt on private land. COUGARS: Cougars are common in Union county. Due to the mild winter, deer and elk can be found at higher elevations. Focus on game rich areas with long ridge lines or saddles that cats typically travel. Setting up downwind of a deer or elk killed by a cougar can be productive. A cougar kill is often covered with material that has been See Hunting I Page 2C
VIEWING Report BAKER COUNTY
Bald and golden eagles can be seen along open water areas of the Snake River and Brownlee Reservoir. For best viewing, drive the Snake River Road between Richland and Huntington. Turkeys can be seen and heard throughout the county in the transitional zone between the forest and the valley. Agood area to look is on the Elkhorn Wildlife Area. Bighorn sheep can be seen in the Burnt River Canyon west of Durkee or along the Snake River Road south of Richland. Ewes are with lambs now and can usually be found in higher elevation areas with rugged terrain. In some cases, prolonged glassing is required to locate the sheep. UNION COUNTY LADDMARSH WILDLIFE AREA

Aflash flood occurred on the upper John Day River on Sunday, July 15. This has muddied the river down to Clarno making fishing poor.The river should clear after a week and fishing will return to normal. The trail to Strawberry and Slide lakes is open, offering good trout fishing throughout the summer. Kokanee fishing continues to be good on Wallowa Lake with anglers catching their limits.

Horse Crazv Camp • Camp brings horses and people together to promote learning, personal growth and healing
With the advent of warm summer water temperatures (70 degrees and more), anglers can reduce the stress to fish by taking the following precautions when catching and releasing fish: Fish during the cooler times of the day, usually mornings and evenings Use barbless hooks, play and land the fish quickly When releasing wild fish, keep them in the water as much as possible Shift your fishing efforts to higher elevation mountain lakes and streams where water temperatures often remain cool.

COVE - Horses have a four-foot blind spot, but do not let this fool you. They can see into the hearts of people like few others. Eight boys and girls discovered this and much more last week at Horse Crazy Camp at Clover Haven, five miles south of Cove. Clover Haven is a non-profit organization that focuses on bringing horses and people together to promote learning, personal growth and healing. The eight children attending the new five-day camp learned about horses, math, geography, art, science and more.All this was taught by the Clover Haven staff with the aid offour ofits horses: Sigrid, a quarter horse who is the lead mare; G.G., a Tennessee walking horse; Dak andBea. ''We see them as coteachers. They are the co-facilitators of the work we do," said Ruthi Davenport of La Grande, a co-founder of Clover Haven who helped teach at Horse Crazy Camp. Sigrid, G. G., Dak and Bea were selected for Horse Crazy Camp because they are the most experienced at this type of work. "They are so kind, gentle and pleasant. They have such giving hearts," Davenport said. "Horses are very perceptive of our emotions." Davenport noted that

Allyson Vinti of Imbler prepares to put on a horse mask at Horse Crazy Camp. Sigrid, G. G., Dak and Bea are very aware around children. For example, they walk more slowly so boys and girls can keep up and stay a little farther away as a safety measure for the children. ''They have respect for the humans they are working \vith," Davenport said. The horses' demeanor and sensitivity made it easy for children to learn how to ride, groom and lead horses around obstacles.
Horse vision The eight boys and girls at Horse Crazy Camp also received a firsthand look at horses' vision. They did so by donning masks with eye openings, letting people see the field of vision horses have. Horses have impressive peripheral vision because

These are two ofthe four horses who worked with children at Horse Crazy Camp.
'They are so kind, gentle and pleasant. They have such giving hearts. Horses are very perceptive of our einotions:' - Ruthi Davenport their eyes are on the sides of their head. Their peripheral vision has a cost, though. Horses all have a blind spot in front of their nose. The blind spot extends four feet since their eyes are so far apart, Davenport said. Children donning one of the masks at Clover Haven had a particularly good look at the peripheral vision horses enjoy because it has mirrors, Davenport said. Davenport, Kay Firor of Cove, a co-founder of Clover Haven and Annette Howell of La Grande were primary teachers ofHorse Crazy Camp. Those assisting with instruction included Clover Haven co-founders Melissa Over and Linda Reagan. Over taught a horse sculpture lesson, and Reagan provided assistance in the horse arena at Clover Haven. Linda Reagan's husband, Uoyd, is also a co-founder. Volunteers who assisted with the camp including Tony Cole, a farrier, Jenna Wright, Melinda McGowan, Nicoa Murchison, Sarah Dill, Dawn Hubble, Jessie Nickel and Riley Baker.

The staff helped children receive a zestful summer school-like experience with the help of an equinebased curriculum. Boys and girls honed their math skills by learning how to measure horses' height in hands. A hand is 10.16 centimeters. They boosted their knowledge of geography by identifying places on unmarked maps known for having specific horse breeds. They improved their artistic skills by creating horse puppet~ and much more. Children told their teachers at the start of the camp what they wanted to learn. In some cases this led to inspiring result~. One girl, Olivia Mack, 6, of Port Townsend, Wash., said she wanted to learn how to approach horses. On the final day ofthe camp, a miniature horse and a large Shire horse were brought in for students to see. Olivia calmly and skillfully demonstrated for all the campers how to approach the horses. "It was so exciting to see her do this," Davenport said. The Clover Haven staff received such an encouraging response from children and parents that they hope to make Horse Crazy Camp an annual event. "This was just a dream come true," Davenport said.
PORTLAND (AP) Numerous charges have been filed against three teenagers accused of unlawfully taking and wasting deer and elk in the MetoliusWildlife Management Unit. The Oregon State Police Fish and Wildlife Division says troopers noticed that gates leading to critical mule deer winter range habitat had been shot off. They then discovered headless mule deer bucks and wasted meat. During the investigation, troopers found other evidence of illegal deer poaching in different areas of the Metolius Unit. Police identified the teens as 18-year-old Cole Craig of Bend, 18-year-old Tyler Mitchell of Gold Hill and a 17-year-old boy from Sisters. All have been cited to appear in court in their respective home counties.
Plan to ban nontribal gillnet fishing reaches Oregon ballot SALEM (AP) - The Oregon secretary of state's office says a proposal to ban the use of nontribal commercial gillnets in the Columbia River has qualified for the Nov. 6 state ballot. The Oregonian reports that Initiative Petition 21 has qualified. Supporters say the gillnets used by commercial fishermen are outdated and harm protected fish in the Columbia. Opponents say approval ofthe ballot measure would not help protected fish.

Feds urge water to prevent repeat of salmon kill
VIEWING Continued from Page lC hunting seasons. There are numerous quality-viewing opportunities from county roads that pass through the area. Binoculars or a spotting scope will help as many animals are best viewed from a distance. Waterfowl using the area include Canada goose, northern pintail, American wigeon, ring-necked duck, mallard, gadwall, cinnamon teal, greenwinged teal and northern shoveler. Broods of ducklings and goslings can be seen in nearly any wetland. Most Canada goslings are nearly as big as the adults and have "colored up" to look like them too. Shorebirds have included killdeer, black-necked stilt, American avocet, greater yellowlegs, spotted sandpiper, Wilson's snipe and others. Some southbound shorebirds have started to show up. Local sandhill cranes have hatched and the young may be visible as they feed in meadows with their parents. Many young cranes have fledged and joined small groups with the adults. Cranes can be seen from county roads in several locations. Please report any sandhill cranes wearing leg bands to the Ladd Marsh staff (541-963-4954). If possible, note the color and order of bands on each of the bird's legs (e.g., pink above white on left leg; silver above black on right leg). The specific combination and order can identify individual birds. Songbirds are nesting and
(AP) Federal authorities want to send some extra water to the lower Klamath River in Northern California to prevent a repeat of a 2002 fish kill that left tens of thousands of salmon dead before they could spawn. The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation has proposed releasing additional flows down the Trinity River, the Klan1ath's biggest tributcuy, late this summer in anticipation of record returns offall chinook.
There is no extra water to be had from the upper reaches of the Klamath River itself, where court battles have long dictated how scarce water is shared between farms and fish. 'We cu·e really glad the bureau is taking this seriously, but we are really concerned that no extra water will be coming out of the Klamath reservoir," said Regina Chichizola, spokeswoman for the Hoopa Valley Tribe.

With an approaching thunderstorm, a mother mourning dove provides an additional umbrella for her two squabs near Ladd Marsh- nestled in the protective cover of a Rocky Mountain juniper. Mourning doves are quite common to the area. Although they only raise two young at a time, they often raise several broods in one summer. The much-maligned juniper is a remarkably valuable tree for wildlife- providing nesting and roosting opportunities for a wide variety of songbirds, much-needed shade for mule deer and pronghorns and a crop of blue berries relished by sage grouse, wild turkeys and even coyotes. many are feeding their young. The songs of territorial males are mixed with the cries of hungry young in the overall soundscape of the marsh. For more information on access rules for Ladd Marsh Wildlife Area, please consult the Oregon Game Bird Regulations or call the wildlife area 541-963-4954. WALLOWA COUNTY Herons are common and can be observed throughout the Wallowa Valley feeding along creeks and rivers. Waterfowl species such as Canada geese and mallards can be observed on Wallowa Lake and throughout the
Wallowa Valley feeding in agricultural fields. Prairie falcon, red-tailed hawk, northern harrier and Swainson's and ferruginous hawks, as well as a variety of owls can be observed through out Wallowa Valley and Zumwalt Prairie. Most raptors can be easily observed from county roads. A good pair of binoculars will improve viewing opportunities. A wide variety of songbirds can be observed from now through the summer in forested areas north of Enterprise, and along rivers and streams throughout Wallowa county. Mule and white-tailed deer
are common in agricultural areas adjacent to Highway 82. Animals can be observed during early morning and late evening hours. Persons willing to drive down the rough Imnaha River Road will often observe bighorn sheep north of Cow Creek near Cactus Mountain. Elk can often be observed along the Zumwalt Road near Findley Buttes. Another good location to observe elk during winter months is on the Wenaha Wildlife Area near Troy. A good place to look is along the Eden Bench Road during early morning or late afternoon hours.

HUNTING ContinURd from Page lC scraped up in about a 10-feet diameter circle around the carcass. Cougars will often drag their kill to the nearest cover next to the ki II site (pay attention to drag marks). You need to be extremely patient and wear camo when calling cougars as they come in slowly and use every bit of cover as they approach. Using remote calls will focus the eat's attention away from your blind. Above all, do not move! Their eyesight is excellent. Finding tracks in the snow, determining direction of travel and setting up ahead ofthe cat may produce results. Nonresident hunters can include a cougar tag with others tags for only $14.50. All cougars taken must be checked in within 10 days of harvest; call for an ap-
pointment before coming in. COYOTE: Coyote numbers are good throughout the district. Try calling in early morning and late afternoon. Remember to ask for permission before hunting on private property. LADDMARSH WILDLIFE AREA Bird hunting seasons are closed. New this year, a parking permit is needed for Ladd Marsh. Hunters get the permit free with their purchase of an annual hunting license. Display on car dash. WALLOWA COUNTY Good numbers of COYOTES can be found throughout Wallowa County. Calling coyotes with rabbit distress type calls has been effective for hunters. It is impor-
tant to choose areas with abundant coyote sign and little human activity. COUGAR numbers are strong throughoutWalIowa 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. WOLVES IN NORTHEAST OREGON Wolves are protected by state law and it is unlawful to shoot them. Coyote hunters in Northeast Oregon need to take extra care to identify their target. Wolves can look like coyotes, especially wolf pups in the mid-summer and fall. ODFW needs hunters' assistance to establish wolves' presence in Oregon. Please report any wolf sightings or wolf sign to the La Grande office at
541-963-2138. HUNTER ORANGE REQUIRED FORYOUTH Don't forget. Hunters age 17 and under must wear a fluorescent orange upper garment or hat when hunting upland game birds (except turkey) and game mammals (deer, elk, bear, cougar, pronghorn, goat, sheep, western gray squirrel) with a firearm.

Pelicans attack murre colony NEWPORT (AP) - An Oregon State University professor says pelicans are responsible for the deaths ofhundreds of murre chicks at a seabird colony n ear Yaquina Head
near Newport. Professor Rob Suryan says brown pelicans flew into the murre colony Monday night. As the adult murres fled the chicks fell into the
ocean or were eaten by the pelicans. A research assistant counted 300 dead murres along a three-mile stretch of Agate Beach.

FISHING Continued from Page 1C CATHERINE CREEK: chinook salmon, trout Catherine Creek closed to fishing for spring chinook on July 1. GRANDE RONDE RIVER: trout, whitefish, bass Grande Ronde River flows are prime for fishing, but recent rain events have impacted water clarity. Once water clarity improves, anglers should find trout and whitefish on a variety of gear including spinners and other light tackle, and drifting weighted nymphs through runs. Fly anglers should also be on the lookout for caddis and mayfly hatches. With lower flows, water temperatures should increase enough to encourage an early bass bite. IMNAHA RIVER: trout, whitefish Trout fishing is fair to good, as flows are settling down to summer levels. As water temperatures warm, the abundant mountain whitefish in the Imnaha River are turning on. Look for whitefish in deeper runs and holes, and target than using beaded nymphs. Bull trout are also present this time of year, and anglers are reminded to handle these fish carefully and immediately release them. JOHN DAY RIVER: smallmouth bass and channel catfish A flash flood occurred on the upper John Day River on Sunday, July 15.This has muddied the river down to Clarno making fishing poor.The river should clear after a week and fishing will return to normal. Trout fishing is available on the North and Middle Forks of the John Day River which were not affected by the flash flood. JUBILEE LAKE: trout Fishing is good for rainbow trout.
