Eastern Oregon University students Ciara Haruo, Ngeyaol Polycarp and Meyar Mamis enjoy a light moment Monday at EOU's Multicultural Center. All three of the students are from Palau, a part of the region of Micronesia. By Dick Mason The Observer

astern Oregon University's pipeline to the Western Pacific, after slowing to a trickle, may soon begin flowing robustly again. Eastern is stepping up its efforts to recruit students from Micronesia, a drive that may bring back memories of the 1970s and 1980s when the university had at least three times the number of Micronesian students it does today. "In some respects this is a return to our roots. We have a historical connection," said Xavier Romano, EOU's vice presidentforstudent services. The effort to boost the number of Micronesian students coming to Eastern gained momentum last fall when Bennie Moses-Mesubed, the director of EOU's Multicultural Center, made a 10-day recruiting trip to Micronesia, a tropical region in the Western Pacific that contains more than 2,000 islands and covers 2.9 million square miles of ocean. Moses-Mesubed met with about 1,000 students, 300 of whom expressed interest in coming to Eastern. 'There is a lot of interest in Eastern because we have many alumni there," said Moses-Mesubed, an EOU graduate from Palau, an island country within Micronesia."Our hope is to double iEOU's Micronesian enrollment) by next year."

ONTHIS DATE In 1836, the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas, fell to Mexican forces after a 13day siege. In 1933, a national bank holiday declared by President Franklin D. Roosevelt aimed at calming panicked depositors began. In 1935, retired Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., died in Washington two days before his 94th birthday. In 1944, U.S. heavy bombers staged the first full-scale American raid on Berlin during World War II. In1970, a bomb being built inside a Greenwich Village townhouse by the radical Weathermen accidentally went off, destroying the house and killing three group members. In 1983, in a case that drew much notoriety, a woman was gang-raped atop a pool table in a tavern in New Bedford, Massachusetts, called Big Dan's; four men were later convicted of the attack.

Time to test smoke alarms

No one was injured in a Thursdaymorning fi re in downtown La Grande. The La Grande Fire Department responded to a fire on Greenwood Street between Adams and Washington avenues shortly after 10 a.m. Thursday. The home, adjacent to a Goss Motors lot, is owned by Mark Goss, who finished renovations of the property last fall. No one was livingin the home. eWe remodeled it and put it upforsale,"Gosssaid. Goss said he wasn't at his business just next door when the fire broke out but quickly arrivedtothesceneafterhe was contacted and asked for the keys to the home. "I don't know what could have caused it," he said. 'There's nothing on but the heat." La Grande Fire Chief Bruce Weimer said the fire appearedtostartin the middle of the home and then

The arrival of Daylight Savings Time Sunday is a good reminder to test smoke alarms. The Office of State Fire Marshal is urging residents to test their smoke alarms before automatically changing the batteries. To test your alarm properly: • Push the test button to be sure the battery is working. • When replacing batteries, follow the manufacturer's instructions for the correct battery to use. • Always retest alarms after installing new batteries. • Replace any alarm that fails to operate after installing a new battery. • Inspect your alarms to determine if they are 10 years old or older, and replace any smoke alarm 10 years old or older. Look for a date on the back of the alarm. If there is no date, your alarm is more than 10 years old and should be replaced.

spreadinto the attic.W eimer said the furnace could have played a role. "The furnace is suspect," he said. The chief said the fire was reported quickly at a good time of the day. Had the fire started in the middle of the night with no one around, the results could have been different, he said.

"I'm glad it was seen early," Weimer said. Fifteen firefighters from the La Grande Fire Department responded to the scene. By about 11 a.m., the fire was out with firefighters watching for hot spots. Goss said the home is insured. "ThaAI be my next phone call, "he said atthe scene.

The La Grande City Council work session Thursday had one overarching question: What is La Grande going to do without Charlie Mitchell? City Manager Robert Strope presented some viable options to the council on replacing the former community and economic developmentdirector. "It truly is a full-time positio n,"Strope said. The issue Strope mentioned is hiring someone at Mitchell's experience level — the cost is much higher. "If we hire someone, make sure it's not at the same level as a director," Strope said. The choice is between hiring an economic director professional and hiring a partner to do the work, Strope said.

"That'll be a $60,000 to $80,000 a year job," City Councilman John Bozarth said."It won't save money. You get what you paid for." City Councilman Gary

Lillard agreed with Bozarth. ''Weneed aprofessional who knows what he's doing," Lillard said. Strope said listing a salary will attract a certain skill set. He said requiring a bachelor of arts degree in a relevant field of study with some experience may attract someone who won't require the high salary, but will still be successful in the position. The council also discussed where this future employee should focus their efforts. Clements said perhaps movingaway from purchasing vacant lots is the way to start. ''We can't keep buying property and assume peoplewant to move toit," Clements said.'We can't expect doing the same thing over and over again and expect diferent results." The council discussed having the focus of the position on the Urban Renewal District. ''We should get more education to the public about Urban Renewal," said City Councilman Justin Rock."I had a lot of questions about it during election season."

"The council will refer it to a work session or begin workingtogetitadopted," Patterson said. The City of Union does not have a noise ordinance now after repealing its old one about six months ago. The old ordinance was repealed because, at one paragraph in length, it was too short to effecti vely be enforced. "Itwas not enforceable," Patterson said. The new proposed noise ordinance is 10 pages long. It has the legal terminology needed to make it possible to enforce it, Union's city administrator said.

Should the city council decideto pursue adopting the ordinance, a public hearing will be scheduled to collect public input. Patterson said it is not clear how the council feels about the proposed new noise ordinance since its makeup has changed significantly since the old ordinance was repealed.

DST was first used by Germany during World War I as a way to conserve energy. The goalwas totake advantage of the daylight hours in spring by moving an additional hour of daylight from the morning to the evening and not letting people sleep through the first few hours of sunshine. America didn't adopt a policy on DST until 1966. Daylight Saving Time will end Nov. 1, when we "fall back" one hour.

LEGISLATURE

Commissionassroves Chief Clean fuels bill passes in josenhstatueatUSCanitol house, heads to Gov. Brown By Sheila V Kumar The Associated Press

SALEM — Nez Perce leader Chief Joseph and pioneering woman rights activist Abigail Scott Duniway should replace two other symbols of Oregon among the statues on display at the U.S. Capitol, a panel recommended on Wednesday. The Statuary Hall Study Commission decided it was time to update Oregon's contributions to the National Statuary Hall Collection in Washington, D.C., where each statehas two fi guresto serve as symbols. The final decision on which statues will be representing Oregon still rests with state lawmakers. Since 1953, Oregon's two figures have been pioneer Jason Lee, a 19th century missionary who founded what became Willamette University, and John McLoughlin, a fur trader known as the father of Oregon. "Much more Oregon history has been written, and it was time to send statues of two equally worthy individuals who represent diferent chapters in Oregon's history," said Jerry Hudson, chair of the commission. So the commission decided to recommend that the McLoughlin and Lee statues come back to Oregon,

and that they be replaced by Chief Joseph and Duniway. Chief Joseph lived from 1840-1904 and was leader of a band of the Nez Perce that was forcibly removed from the Wallowa Valley by the U.S. government. Joseph's band was among those that resistedremoval during the 1877 Nez Perce War. Chief Joseph is "Oregon's only truly mythical heroic figure," said Amy Platt, a project manager at the Oregon Historical Society. "I would say that most schoolchildren in the country know his name, which is extraordinary," Platt said. Duniway, who lived from 1834-1915, was known as "the pioneer woman suffragist of the great Northwest." She and her family moved to Oregonin a wagon train,and she wrote about that experience in novels. For 16 years, she was editor and publisher of'The New Northwest," a newspaper devoted to women's rights. She also wrote the Oregon Woman Suffrage Proclamation in 1912, said Eliza Canty-Jones, a public outreach manager at Oregon Historical Society. There au. 90 men and 10 womenin the National Statuary Hall Collection. Itwasn't until 2000 that Conyess decided states could switch

outtheirstatues.Seven states have aheadydone so,induding Ohio, whichis in the process ofreplacing Governor William Allen, a 19th centurycongressman who supported the rights of southern slave owners, with the inventor Thomas Edison. Californiareplaced Civil War abolitionistThomas Starr King with a bronze statue of Ronald Reganin 2006. Oregon's nine-member commission, created by former Gov. John Kitzhaber last August, was initially tasked with deciding whether Lee's statueshould be replaced with that of the late Mark Hatfield, World War II veteran and the longest-serving senator in Oregon's history. It instead recommended both Lee and McLoughlin shouldbe returned to"places of honor" in Oregon. Though the commission had already endorsed removal of the two statues, severalpeople spoke in favor of keeping them in their current homes during a public hearing preceding the commission's vote, including one man who testified as though he were McLoughlin himself. The commission has been gathering input fiom scholars and the public about who best represents Oregon, and it narrowed alistof10candidates down to four in December.

SALEM — Oregon moved closer to becoming the second state in the nation to allow its agencies to combat climate change by changing its fuel supply or requiring companies to buy carboncreditsaftertheHouse voted to let the program go forward Wednesday. Senate Bill 324, which lifts a sunseton the programcreatedin 2009,passedthe Democratic -contmlled House 31-29.Itnow headsfor the desk of Gov. Kate Brown, who is expected to sign the bill. The vote was the tightest this sessionin the House, with four Democrats joining all Republicans voting against the bill. The bill's passage has also created aroadblockin a transportation bill thatwould indude tax hikes to pay forroad maintenance and building. Lawmakers held a five-hour debate that culminated with House Republican Leader Mike McLane, R-Powell Butte, shoutingon the floor. ''We are about to spend the money of Oregonians when they go to the gas pump. Not one dime for a road. Not one dime for a bridge. And to what end?" McLane said. 'The decision is iBrown'sl," McLane said later, referring to whether the governor would sign the bill. She said when asked last month that she supportsthebillbutrefrained from saying whether she would sign it. "For me, clean fuels translates into cleaner air for Oregonians. I think that's a good thing," Brown said last month.

Senate Bill 324 would allow the state to require fuel suppliers to decrease carbon intensity for most fuel sold in Oregon by10 percent in a decade. Sponsors:Sen. Lee Beyer, D-Eugene; Sen. Michael Dembrow, D-Portland; Sen. Sara Gelser, D-Corvallis; Sen. Chris Edwards, D-Eugene History:The standards are modeled on those in California, which has put its program in place and studied some of the costs.

''We should do what we're capable of doing to address it every chance we have," said Rep. Peter Buckley, D-Ashland.

It's OK to change your mind. Even when the decision based on new facts may not be popular with a majority of your constituents. That's the lesson from the La Grande City Council meeting Wednesday night. The council removed a condition imposed on Eagle Cap Dispensary, one of two medical marijuana dispensaries in town along with Hwy 30 Cannabis. The condition, imposed during a marathon January meeting, would have forced Eagle Cap Dispensary toshut down for 1-1/2 hours each day during prime business hours because of the proximity of a school bus stop. When new information arises, it's important to use that and make informed decisions. Saving face, then, is not important. Neither is standing stubbornly by a decision that no longer makes sense. City Planner Mike Boquist, testifying before the council Wednesday, said there is no line of sight from the dispensary to the buses unloading. Based on that information, the majority of the councilvoted to remove the restriction on Eagle Cap Dispensary that would have imposed an unfair business playing field. The facts are, while Oregon as a whole enthusiastically embraced recreational marijuana in the November election, voters in Northeast Oregon soundly defeated it. Many people in town are adamantlyopposed to notjustrecreational marijuana but medical marijuana. Starting July 1, Measure91 allows thepersonaluseand possession of recreational marijuana under Oregon law. Oregon is moving ahead, regardless ofhow the local area voted. Still, whatever their feelings about marijuana, m ost people would say it'sim portant forbusinesses to be on a level playing field. Putting restrictions on Eagle Cap Dispensary would give it an unfair disadvantage when going up against its competition, Hwy 30 Cannabis. Rarely in life do people have a chance to make things fair,and this was one of those rare opportunities, and the council took action to make things right. Mayor Steve Clements said in Wednesday's meeting that he regretted that the La Grande City Council had imposed restrictions on Eagle Cap Dispensary. He said perhaps fatigue of a five-hour meeting had factored into the decision and that it was time to make things right. No matter how we feel about them, medical m arijuana dispensaries are here to stay.It' s best that the city lets them compete with each other on a fair playing field.

Lamar Alexander of Tennessee and chairman of the committee on health, education, labor and pensions overseeingthisreview,said recently that he wanted to "put the responsibility back with states and local school districts" to oversee public schools with as few mandates as possible from Washington.

It enticed state and schooldistrictsto go after the'free" money thereafter offered by the federal government. The original purpose of the 1965 law was to distribute federal aidtoschoolsand districtsthatenrolled large numbers of poor children. To get the"6ee" money, however, schools had to conform to federal government standardsand allow federalreview oftheir programs. Very quickly, districts and schools accepting the 'free" money became very dependent upon it and thus became strongadvocatesforit. In 2002,ESEA was modified and renamed by President George W.

EASTERN Continued from Page1A To date, Eastern has received atleast 13 applications for admission kom Micronesian students. This means EOU is well on its way to substantially boosting its number of Micronesian students. Eastern presently has 15 full-time and part-time students kom Micronesia. For much of the mid to late 1970s and 1980s,Eastern had atleast40 M icronesian students each year. For two years in the mid-1980s, Eastern also had a branch campus in Micronesia. Students kom Micronesian community colleges attended the EOU branch campus to complete the final two years of credits needed for a college degree. "About 100 students graduated with Eastern degrees kom the campus," said Lee Insko of Elgin, a former EOU dean w ho served asdirectorofthebranch campus. The branch campus, which was loc ated on the island country of ~ n o w named Chuuk, closed in 1986 but not before it helped strengthen ties between EOU and Micronesia. These ties remain strong.

The proposal, though, evoked a number of concerns from citizens and members of the council. Mayor Steve Clements called the proposal "a shell game," a term that was picked up by others during the hearing. Clements said the county can meet parking requirements in its current proposal without vacating additional right of ways. County Planner Hanley Jenkins testified that the new proposaloffersa number of benefits not only to the county but to the entire community. Under the new proposal, Our Lady of the Valley Catholic Church will take possession of its sidewalks and lawns. Additionally, the county would

Jenkins concluded,"The county does not believe a tratttc study is necessary."

Eastern Oregon Analytical, reminded the city council of the lack of testimony against the dispensary. Ducote also mentioned several scientific journals statingthereisnoevidence that the presence of a medical marijuana dispensary affects youth. "Even if we assumed the children would pass by

The Observer

The La Grande City Council voted Wednesday to remove a condition kom the conditional use permit ofthe city'ssecond medical marijuana facility. The council voted 5-2 to remove a requirement it imposed during January's meeting that Eagle Cap Dispensary would have to close down for an hour and a half each day because of the potential for children to congregatenear thefacility. Justin Rock and John Bozarthvoted against removing the condition. The council in January had added the condition that the dispensary would close between 3 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. to allow school buses in the area to drop otf children. However, City Planner Michael Boquist said the buses are not dropping otf children near the dispensary — the nearest bus stop requires adults to be present when the students are dropped oK During January's meeting, the council had a trial by fi re,swearing in new members of the council and immediately holding two major public hearingsincluding the one for the dispensary. The January meeting lasted well over four hours and by the time the public hearing for the dispensary came around, many were watching the clock. Mayor Steve Clements admitted as much at Wednesday's meeting, saying it was late when they heard testimony and he regrettedthevote hecast. "I don't want to impose or limit the hours of operation of any legitimate business," Clements said."I may or may not agree to the use of medical marijuana, but the law states this is a legitimate business. Until voters tell us otherwise, this is a legal business." There was no testimony offeredagainstremoving the condition. In fact, in both meetings, nothing was said against the dispensary during the public hearings. Nicholas Ducote, of

Clements responded that the county can build with the current site plan, though would not be able to use the Joseph Building. 'You've got to be stewards of your assets," Bozarth said. Bozarth went on to say thatthe proposalwillbegood for the church. "Speaking for the Catholic church, I know it's a benefit for us," he said. Lillard then brought up tratttc concerns again and made a motion to require a trattt cstudy beforethevacation process could continue. Only he and Clements voted in favor of the motion. Davidson on Thursday saidpeople can term the county's proposal however they want to, but the idea came as county and city stafF worked toward "a solution to fully utilize our building and our assets.

However, there was no decision made about reaching out to ask for assistance paying for the system. Brocksaidthe scope ofthem essages has not been determined. He said a car accident occurring within the county would not necessarily mean a message would be sent out. "A message would probably come from a large impacting-type emergency," Brock said."Something that we would need to givedirections." Decisions about the system are still in the preliminary stages, Brock said, but he would like to implement the system during this fiscal year.

ment. The grant was for the purpose ofhiring counselors who specialized in working with Micronesian students, Edvalson said. Today EOU has few, if any, peers among mainland universities when it comes to successfully educating Micronesian students, Edvalson said. He credits this to the efforts faculty have made to reach out to Micronesians. "Ourfaculty have done agoodjob developing an understanding of their background and culture," Edvalson said. The strong Micronesian community in the La Grande area provides a support system that helps EOU recruit and retain students kom the Western Pacific region. "It is an extended family," Romano sald. Edvalson said many have stayed in the La Grande area because the people here have made them feel comfortable. 'The community is very accepting of them," Edvalson said. Northeast Oregon is of course far different than the islands of Micronesia. Its rural setting makes it attractive to students kom the Western Pacific, but not much else is similar. "It is a cultural transition," Moses-Mesubed said."Even though this is a rural environment, itisfast-paced."'

Eastern," said Terry Edvalson, a volunteer adjunct professor at Eastern who helped start the university's Micronesian program in the mid-1970s. The governments of Micronesia have taken note of the success enjoyed by EOU graduates, said Romano. He said this is the reason why many Micronesian governmentsaresteppingforward to provide students with much of the financial support they need to attend EOU. 'They see the long term. They are investing in the future," Romano said. An average of four to six Micronesian students graduate kom EOU each year. Many return to Micronesia, but others have stayed in Union County to raise families. Today, La Grande has 165 people of Micronesian heritage. This is the largest Micronesian population of any city in Oregon outside of the Portland, Salem and Eugene metro areas, said Charles Rynearson of the population research center at Portland State. U.S. Census data kom 2010 indicated that Union County had 180 Micronesians. This ranked Union County seventh in the state behind Multnomah, Marion, Washington, Clackamas, Lane and Jackson counties.

"Whether you support it or not is irrelevant to the facts of the situation. Children won't see the kont of this dispensary. The concern is the children will see the patients going in and out," Ducote said."Most patients are over 40 or 50 years old.

Atter the meeting, Eagle Cap co-owner Jeff Durnmg commended the city council for its decision, saying the potential negative ramifications to limit Eagle Cap's hours of operation would have been huge. 'They were setting a dangerous precedent to close a business if they didn't like it" Durning said.'They knew they were in between a rock and a hard place. iClementsl understood that the condition iwould havel setabad precedent,notjust forus,buta lotofbusinesses out there."

Keys said the fact the suicide rates for older adults continue to be high despite the economic recovery shows that while the economic downturn may have been a contributing factor to increase in suicide rates between 2005 and 2010, it probably wasn't the only cause.

Hall has tried to live up to that pledge since he became president of the YMCA of Columbia-Willamette in 2003. It was under his direction that branches in Beaverton, Vancouver and Sherwood added Christian programs, including faith-basedfi tnessactivities such as Holy Yoga. "One of my favorite quotes is fiom Edmund Burke All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing,"' Hall said."I didn't want to be one of those good men who do nothing." A movement to revitalize the"C" in the YMCA began around 2000 with annual adhoc conferences, and Hall said he"grieved"when momentum diedatthestartoftherecession.

SPIRITUAL LIFE

Neighbors express reservations over feeding the homeless MailTnbune

MEDFORD — Findinga placetofeed the homeless has been an issue that has troubled Medford otfrcials for years. Recently, the City Council

agreed to support a proposal that would provide up to

$25,000 to the Salvation Army to fence otf a vacant lot next to the organization's store on Central Avenue as afooddistribution area for

homeless people. "This is one of the best suggestions we've seen," said Rich Hansen, a member of both the Medford Parks and Recreation Commission and the Homeless Task

Force. The council agreed unanimously to begin an application that would use federal dollarsthat are earmarked for community improvement projects.

The money would pay for a concrete pad, fencing and portablebathrooms. But some neighbors voiced reservationsabout the idea because they've already faced issues stemming from

some of the homeless people. "Ever since we began dealing with these homelesspeople,we'vehad a lot of problems," said Paula Morales, who lives near the proposed feeding area.

reetings, La Grande. Iam notgreat at introductions, so I'm going to go about this the best way I know how to. Hi. My name is Ronald Bond. I am a sports junkie. I am the newest addition to The Observer sports staf. I have moved here from Eugene. And Iam looking forward to the challenge and opportunity in front of me. In mid-February, Editor Andrew Cutler and Sports Editor Josh Benham put the offer on the table for me to become the next sports writer for The Observer. It was an opportunity that, one month ago, never would have seemedpossible.Ihave a degree from the University of Oregon in journalism and ample experience under my belt, but it had been more than four years since I had written an article, and I had all but concluded that being in the newspaper industry again was probably off the table. I was actually OK with m y perceived reality before this new possibility was placed in front of me. It was an opportunity to get back into what I love SeeBond/Page 10A

Avery Albrecht's impact was a key component to La Grande's success as the Tigers ran roughshod over their opponents, clinching the Greater Oregon League title and completing the regular season with a 17-5 record. The rest of the league noticed, and the junior was given the nod as GOL player of the year. "I can't explain how much it means to me, just that my teammates stuck behind us all season and played hard,"Albrecht said Thursday as the team prepared for its Saturday playoff game with Banks."I give them the credit." Head coach Doug Girdner called her a leader who serves her teammates, saying, "She's there to make the rest of the team better. "As coaches, the thing that we really love about Avery is she could come out and score 30 points a night if she wanted to," Girdner said."That is the last thing on her mind. She wants to be a team player. She understands that for a team to be the best they can be, you have to have all five players on the floor contributing. She facilitates really well."

history this fall. Gianandrea, a current Eastern student, said he was ecstatic when he heard the news last summer. Jessy Watson played a vital role in getting the trio to Eastern. The players have a history with him from their days being coached by Watson at La Grande. "Jessy was my high school coach and he was my first contact," Ridder, a 2013 La Grande graduate, said."He really kind of got the ball rolling for me." Watson is assisting the recently hired head coach Stan Rodrigues, who is finishing his coaching duties for the Westside Timbers, a youth club program, in being the point-man for recruits on visits to the campus and connecting potential student-athletes with the new program. "At this point in time, I'm really just a liaison. There's no oflIciai titles yet. I'm not reallyin charge of anything," Watson said.'Tm licensed to coach professional players, but Fm lending a hand becauseFm investedin soccer in the community and these kids.

Eastern Oregon University couldn't have asked for a better home opening. After beating Walla Walla University in the first game of adoubleheader,theMountaineers exploded for nine runs in the first inning and ran away for a 20-0 victory in the second game in the first games of the season at Peggy Anderson Softball Field on the Eastern campus Wednesday afternoon. Eastern collected 21 hits in the second game and had six players with two hits or more. 'That's what we expect from everybody in our lineup, one through nine, is making sure that everybody's making goodcontactand being able to drive through the ball," head coach Betsy Westermann said. Second baseman Gracie Flyg and shortstop Haley Hess led the offensive fireworks with four hits apiece, with both players driving in four runs and scoring twice.

"It's fun when everybody is hitting like that and the pitchers are on their game," Flyg said."It takes a lot of pressure off the defense. We can just field the ball like we know how to, and the pitchers can just be relaxed out there." CeCe Pratt also had four RBI and two hits, McKenna Michelsen had three hits and two runs scored and Cassie Wendt drove in three runs for Eastern, which quickly put Walla Walla in a big hole. After scoring the first run off an error, Pratt lined a two-run single over the shortstop's head with the basesloaded. Michelsen made it 4-0 off on infield RBI single, and with the bases still juiced, Hess blooped a hit into left field for two more

''We are working on scoring runs in the first inning and continuing to put pressure on them throughout the game, so that was good to see," Westermann said. Eastern tacked on a run in the second inning, and put the game away with eight more runs in the third inning. Seven Mounties had run-scoring hits in the frame, with Flyg collecting a pair of RBI knocks and Pratt adding a two-run single.

program is recruiting in the area as much as he can. "I know there are a handful of players in the areathatcould play collegiate soccer every year," Rodrigues said.'There's definitely talent. I think now with a college program in the area, it will be great for the youth players. I would love to bring someone in from La Grande and have them win a player of the year award." Watson believed that one of the selling points for Rodrigues being hired was his connections with Westside Timbers, which could possibly lead to an even bigger club presence in the area. "I know that all areas have really grown in soccer strength," Rodrigues said. 'The Redmond/Bend area grew a club team there, and now they're one of the top clubs in the state. I'm hoping to do the same here." The Mounties' goal is that the high school team continues to feed kids to Eastern as theprogram startsgaining steam. "I'd like to think we could put at least one kid a year into that program "Watson said."Eastern sports, historically, hasn't had a lot oflocals. That's not because they don't want them. It's that they're not ready. In every sport, we have not preparedthese kidsforthis level. One day I'm hoping to fix that." The new signees are just excitedtobe a partofa groundbreaking venture for Eastern. "It'll be interesting to see how it pans out, but I'm excitedtobe apartofiton the ground floor," Ridder said. "I'mvery pumped tobeable to play for the town I went to school in." Gianandrea shared those sentiments.

He enjoyed his first seasonthere butdecided to leave the school and did an extension semester in Ashland after transferring. 'This is my first term at Eastern, and theyjust happened to be having a soccer team the same year," Ridder said."I wasn'treally anticipatingit. I had kind of given up the ideaofplayingsoccer again, so I was pretty pumped when it all worked out." Watson hopes the time at George Fox will prepare Ridder to step in and compete immediately. "He's a good goalkeeper but a great kid,"Watson said.'We need him to come in and help compete forthe goalkeeper job. Competition breeds excellence. I've known Stan for several years, and I know he demands a lot from his players, like I did when I was coaching them at La Grande. Stan wants them to excel, and he doesn't accept mediocrity. All three understand that well." Gianandrea played a season at Southwestern Oregon Community College in Coos Bay. He said he enjoyed the experience but decided the school wasn't a right fit. "I came home and decided to work," he said."Last winter,Itook a couple ofcourses but couldn't be a full-time student quite yet, because I had to finish paying off what I owed for school. When I finished I decided to enroll full-time last fall." Gianandrea said he's m ost comfortable as am idfielder or a striker but can play a number of positions on the field.

Supreme Court was sharply divided Wednesdayin the latest challenge to President Barack Obama's health overhaul, this time over the tax subsidies that m ake insurance affordablefor millions ofAmericans. The justices aggressively questioned lawyers on both sides of what Justice Elena Kagan called "this neverending saga," the latest politically charged fight over the Affordable Care Act. Chief Justice John Roberts said almost nothingin nearly 90 minutes ofback-and-forth, and Justice Anthony Kennedy's questions did not make clear how he will come out. Roberts was the decisivevote to uphold the law in 2012. Otherwise, the same liberal-conservative divide thatcharacterized theearlier case was evident. Opponents of the law say thatonlyresidents ofstates that set up their own insurance marketscan getfederal subsidies to help pay their premiums. The administrationsaysthe law provides for subsidies in all 50 states. The liberal justices peppered lawyer Michael Carvin almost fiom the outset ofhis argument to limit the subsidies. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said the law set up flexibility for states to either set up their own markets or rely on the federal healthcare. gov. Giving subsidies only to people in some states would be"disastt uus,"Ginsburg said. When Solicitor General

ODFW offer s advice forshed antlerhunters SALEM — This time of year isn't just for Easter egg hunting. Many Oregonians are in the outdoors looking for another seasonal treat — shed antlers. Oregon's male deer and elk naturally shed their antlers at this time of year (only to regrow them in spring and summer). Buck deer usually shed theirs from late December through March, and bull elk from late February through early April. RobTanner, co-founder of Oregon Shed Hunters, believes more people are enjoying the sport of shed hunting. "We are noticing more people getting out, but the clientele has changed a bit," Tanner said. "It's no longer just hardcore hunters; nowadays it's more of a family eventwith mom, dad,kidsand even

In case you are just tuning in, steelhead season is well underway on the Grande Ronde and Wallowa rivers with creel reports hovering somewhere between"great"and"I've already had to buy another catch card." As overheard last week at Goebel's in Wallowa,"It seems like there's a fish behind every rock." Standing at the checkout I kept my mouth shut in agreement, having just limited out, although I also wanted toadd,"yeah, and a fisherman behind everyrock,besides." With fishing so good and pressure on the rise I found myself for the first time since October contemplating taking a weekend off from fishing. Why now, I wondered to myself as I got back in my truck and headed home. Now was the glory time. The time I wait for all year long. The time of plenty. As I rely on garnishing most of my yearly income as a fishing guide during four short months of the summer I have become nostranger to crowded rivers. I'm grateful for the crowds. It means a healthy local economy and paying clients.

But the peak of shed hunting season in late winter/early spring also coincides with tougher weather and less forage availability for big game, making it a vulnerable time for wildlife. Shed hunters can take the following steps to protect big game while still enjoying their sport: • Don't disturb big game animals: Don't approach animals or follow the same oneson adaily basis. • Respect road and area closures. These are in place to protect winter range and wintering big game.

ANTLERS

Forest officials worry about'mudding' U.S. Forest Service managers in the Blue Mountains are concerned that the mild winter and early access to forestroads and trailscould result in vehicles, horses, bicycles and hikers digging ruts and leaving scars in soft, muddy ground. Mud bogging or "mudding" can increase erosion, according to a press release from the Forest Service. Wallowa-Whitman Forest Supervisor Tom Montoya isencouraging people to minimize impacts to natural resources kom travel on roadsthat are susceptibleto rutting due to warm weather and melting snowpack. ''With the warmer weather we understand that the public wants to explore their national forest; however, some roadshave not fi rm ed up and traveling on them is causing damage to the roadbed," Montoya said. Kevin Martin, supervisor on the Umatilla National Forest, reminds forestusers that some roads remain seasonally closed for wildlife or resource concerns in spite of early access. "Motor Vehicle Use Maps

More about antlers

•

Antlers are the fastest-growing bone thatisn't cancerous or prenatal. Antlers on deer can grow at a rate up to seven times that of skeletal growth. Elk antlers can weigh 30 to 40 pounds. Elk antlers begin re-growing soon after they are shed, with most growth happening in spring and summer months. The antlers are covered by"velvet" throughout this growth period, before hardening to bone in late July-earlyAugust for elk and late August-early September for deer. This makes antlers readyin time forbreeding season iin September for elk and November for deer), when male deer or elk will fight for dominance using their antlers. Oregon Big Game Regulations ipage 22l state that"No person shall possess or transport any game mammal or part thereof which has been illegally killed, found or killed for humane reasons, except shed antlers, unless they have notified and received permission kom personnel of the Oregon State Police or ODFW prior to transporting." So people may pick up naturally shed antlers in the outdoors, but may not pick up skulls with antlers attached without permission. People who collect shed antlers are allowed to sell or exchange them, but certain rules apply. Only naturally shed antlers, antlers detached kom the skull, or a skull split apart can be sold or exchanged. For antlers detached kom the skull or skulls split apart, the seller must have legally taken the game part ion a big game tag or after receiving permission kom OSP or ODFW to remove skull and antlers kom the wild in the first place.) Past poaching problems led to the regulations. Skulls that arespli thavelessvalue and arenoteligibleforrecord books. These regulations reduce the incentive for someone to kill animals on winter range or out of season, hide the skull, and go back months later and'find it."A Hide/Antler Dealer permit i$17l is needed to purchase antlers for use in the manufacture ofhandcrafted items.

U.S. Forest Service photo

U.S. Forest Service officials are worried about this kind of damage on soft ground with the early arrival of spring conditions. This photo was taken Feb. 27 near Five Points Creek northwest of La Grande. "MVUMs are free and can be picked up at any Umatilla National Forest office or downloaded from the forest website. Sean Chambers, Union County coordinator of the Mount Emily Recreation Area iMERAl north of La Grande also encourages users of the MERA to be aware that many non-motorized trails are muddy and to de-

fer or choose more hardened trails until ground conditions change. MERA has recently developed 17 miles of new trails that are especially sensitive as they have not fully set up. Horse, bike,and foottraffic during muddy conditions can causeareas oftraildamage including rutting and potholes that will require costly maintenance.

Not only is mud bogging extremely damaging to the land, it's illegal. It is unlawfulto operate avehicle on or off-road in a manner which damages or unreasonably disturbs land and vegetation. There's also the risk of getting stuck. If you come across deep mud or snow, forestoffi cialsadvise you to turn around.

IMMUNIZATIONS

Vl I WI By Sandhya Somashekhar, Jason Millman and Lena H. Sun The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Officials in several Republican stateswho balked atparticipating in President Barack Obama's health care initiative are now revisiting the issue amid mounting panic over a possible Supreme Court decision that would revoke federal insurance subsidies for millions. The discussions taking place in state capitals around the country are part of afl urry ofplanning and lobbying by oScials, insurance and hospital executives, and healthcare advocates to bluntthe possibleim pactofa court ruling. The justices hear arguments about the matter this week. If the court sides with the plaintiffs, who argue that subsidies are not allowed in the34 statesthatopted against setting up their own insurance marketplaces,the ruling could spark an immediate crisis. People could see their insurance bills skyrocket orbeforced tocanceltheir insurance. At least six states where Republican leaders had previouslyrefused to setup state marketplaces are now considering what steps they might take to preserve the subsidies. Efforts to try to hold on to thesubsidiesareeven under consideration in South Carolina, which supported the challenge now before the Supreme Court. South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, a Republican, said in an interview that her state may consider setting up a marketplace, though it is unclear how such a proposal would fare in the staunchly conservative state. nWe're going to start in this next week working on some

How muchsugaris in that? 7foodswith added sugar Health officials say people should eat less sugar. But that's easier said than done. Anyone who has tried cutting down on sugar knows to avoid cookies, sodas and candy. But sugar can be hidden in lots of other common packaged foods.

TheWorld Health Organization finalized guideli nesWednesday saying people should keep intake of added sugars to just 5 to 10 percent of overall calories, which translates to about 25 to 50 grams of sugar a day for most people. The guidelines don't apply to naturally

occurring sugars in fruits, vegetables and milk, since they come with essential nutrients. Here are seven examples of foods that might have added sugar or another sweetener like high-fructose corn syrup as an ingredient:

SALAD DRESSING Picking a salad over a ham sandwich seems like a virtuous choice. But the amount of sugar it comes with can vary dependingon the dressing you puton top of it. Wish-Bone's Deluxe French salad dressing, for instance, lists 4 grams (about1 teaspoon) of sugar per serving (2 tablespoons). SOUP A cup of soup of soup is a comforting thought, but even savory varieties can have sugar. A can of Progresso's Rich Itt Hearty Beef Pot Roast has 4 grams (about1 teaspoon) of sugar per serving, with a can containing two servings. YOGURT Another seemingly healthful choice that can come with lots of sugar. Some of

the sugar is naturally occurring from the dairy, but companies add sweeteners too. A container of Chobani's 0% fat Greekyogurt in black cherry flavor lists 17 grams (about 4 teaspoons) of sugar. BREAD That toast you're about to smother with Iam might've already been a little sweetened. A store brand of enriched white bread at the convenience store chain Duane Reade listed 2 grams (about half a teaspoon) of sugar for per serving (2 slices) PEANUT BUTTER It depends on the variety you pick, but peanut butter can come with added sugar too. Skippy's Super Chunk variety lists 7 grams (almost 2 teaspoons) of sugar per serving (2 tablespoons).

CEREAL Most people know that cereal has sugar, especially the varieties for kids. In some cases, you might be surprised that there isn't much difference between options. Special K with Red Berries, for instance, has 9 grams (more than 2 teaspoons) per serving (1 cupj, while Frosted Flakes has 10 grams (more than 2 teaspoons) of sugar per serving (3/4cupj. FROZEN MEALS In case it wasn't clear by now, just because it's not dessert doesn't mean it doesn't have added sugar. California Kitchen's BBQ Chicken microwavable pizza has 7 grams (almost 2 teaspoons) of sugar in a single-serving pie.

as artificial flavors. Last year, the U.S. proposed new nutrition labels that would be required to list any sugars added by manufacturers. Sugar is just one of a number of ingredients that have come under attack, such as salt and trans fat. However, WHO pointed out that when it comes to sugar, m ost people don'trealizehow much they're eating because it's often hidden in processed foodsnotconsidered sweet. For example, one tablespoon of ketchup has about 4 grams i1 teaspoon) of sugar and a single can of soda has up to 40 grams i10 teaspoons).

sugar bordered on an addiction."Even if you are not just eating lollies and candy, you areprobablyeating afair amount of sugar." Clarke noted that there's added sugar even in pasta sauces and bran cereals. She saidfruitjuices and smoothies were common dietary offenders, because they have very concentrated amounts ofsugarwithoutthe fiber benefits that come with eating the actual fiuit. Clarke welcomed the new WHO guidelines but said peopleshould also consider gettingmore exercise to balance out their sweet tooths. "If you do enough exercise, you can eat almost anything," she said."But it's very hard to avoidlarge amounts of sugar unless all you're eating is fiuits and vegetables."

Health officials

perplexed by vaccination skeptics The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Certain that they are right, struggling to find ways to gettheirmessage across, public health officials are exasperated by their inability to persuade more U.S. parentsto vaccinate their children. "I think we're all kind of &ustrated,n said Stephen Morse, a Columbia Universityinfectious disease expert. "As scientists, we're probably the least equipped to know how to do this." They say they are contending with a small minority of parents who are misinformed — or merely obstinate— about the risks of inoculations. The parents say they have done their own research and they believetherisks aregreater than health authorities acknowledge; they are merely making their own medical choices, they say.

The survey also showed that 72 percent ofhealth fair participants are willing to pay out-of-pocket to have bloodtestsperformed even though they have insurance. Eighty-nine percent said they would like even more tests offered during a health fair. nWe feel that our customers are becoming more aware of monitoring their own health, and we're encouraging people to be more proactive," Kennedy said.nWe've opened it up to the general public to get some basic, routine-type tests that they can order themselves as allowed by the stateto beable to m onitor their own health."

Experts aren't even sure the ranks of families who don't vaccinate are growing to any significant degree. But in some states, the number of parents seeking exemptions &om school attendance vaccination requirements has been inching up. In some communities, large proportions of household skip or delay shots. The rise has come despite unsettling outbreaks ofsome vaccine-preventable diseases that had nearly disappeared &om the United States. "Part of the reason everyone is so concerned about this is because they don't know whether things will getworse,"said Dr.W alter Orenstein of Emory University, considered one of the nation's leading experts on vaccines.

Facebook fiiend posted a thing that was supposed to bea food product — it looked like a pink donut hole with a sugary cream center coveredin sprinklesoffered by a well-marketed fast food "restaurant." It looked awful. It is easy to pick out most ofthefood thathaslittle nutritional value, lots of fat,calori es,preservatives. If something is the color of Pepto Bismol and covered in candy sprinkles, it's pretty obvious that eating an apple is a healthier choice. Some foods' downside are not that obvious. My first real experience with"health food" was as a child when people with long hair, long beards and long skirtsprofessed thewonders of vegetarian diets. Living in Western Oregon outside of Eugene, alfalfa sprouts were all the rage. My father made honey whole wheat bread and we grew sprouts in a Mason jar on the kitchen counter. Later, I dabbled in a low-meat diet in college and became a label reader. When I lived in College Park, Maryland, I was introduced to a tempeh sandwich at alocalhealth food market and cafe and I fell in love. I started buying my own veggie burgers and sausage as a break from pork sausage and hamburgers. They are easy to reheat and serve. Part of the Complete Health Improvement Program sponsored by the Wallowa Memorial Hospital is to be carefulofpackaged food and read labels. I hadn't eaten veggie sausage or burgers in a while, and after purchasing a couple packages I dug out the readingglassesto seewhat was in them. Wow. I'd missed that label.

Interpath Laboratory will host its first community health fair in La Grande to make it convenient for peopleto take aproactive approach to their health care. The four-day fair runs from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Bloodtests arecompara-

Severide (Taylor Kinney) of the Tuesday "Fire" series. Wolf recalls that many years ago, "Law 8' O r d er" did crossovers with NBC's "Hom i cide: Life on the Street," noting "they were the highest-rated episodes for each show that season, so it's always been in the back of my mind that whenever you can do this on a rational basis, it's synergistic.

She maintains doing multiple shows simultaneously isn't that much extra work : "Every once in a while in that case, we work a Saturday. When our two shows are together,

it's kind of like being in a f'ra<ernity house. We're having a pretty good time. I think I<'s worth a sixth day here and there."
