Technically speaking the answer is yes. Eastern beat Boise Junior College four times between 1934 and 1950. Boise JC did not become a four-year school and known as Boise State University until the mid-1960s. Eastern played Boise Junior College 11 times through 1950, according to website "Boise Junior Football Records." The information listed on the site was compiled by Micah Cranney. Eastern was named Eastern Oregon Normal School and later Eastern Oregon College of Education when it played Boise Junior College. The Mountaineers' four wins include a 7-0 triumph on Oct. 4, 1941. Eastern's touchdown was set up by a Statue of Liberty play that resulted in a 40-yard run by Ted Wilson, according to a story in the Oct. 6, 1941, Observer. See Mason / Page 5A

Less than a decade later she learned firsthand. She said the Detroit ofher youth is fardifferent than itistoday. aWe never locked our doors," she said. "Itwas peaceful." The oldest of five girls, Gentle said her father died when she was 10. Her mother went to work and provided for the girls on her own. Gentle said she met her husband after World War II. He lived just down the street from her, but they didn't meet until they were adults. During the courseofhiscareer,thecouple lived in the Philippines, Maryland and California. When he retired they moved to Wallowa, where two ofhis brothers and an aunt and uncle lived. The "passel" of cousins grew up together and all graduated from Wallowa, she said. Gentle sewed a lotofherkids'clothes and some for the grandchildren. Now she mostly makes quilts for her family, which numbers five children, 14 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren and four great-great grandchildren. Her house is a regular "Rogue's Gallery" with family photos on nearly every wall. All of Gentle's children graduated

promotereading,"said one of Hansen's daughters, Karen Hansen of Portland, who attended Sunday's ceremony. Kathleen McCall of Hermiston, also a daughter of Hansen's, agreed that her mother would have been thrilled. "It would mean everything to her," McCall said."It is a wonderful tribute to her." The new Little Free Library stands in the southwest corner of the yard of Carol and Dale Lauritzen. Their son, Zachary Lauritzen, and a neighbor, Rod Sands, built the wooden box which houses the new library. Carol Lauritzen, areti red education professor at Eastern Oregon University, who specialized in reading education, said the new library is in a good place because many children will walk past it on their way to school. "Studies show that if children read six books in the summer they maintain their reading level," Lauritzen said.

ENTERPRISEStemming from a string of domesticviolence charges, a Joseph man agreed to stay out of Wallowa County for three years after a long history of domestic violence. During a plea hearing in Wallowa County Circuit Court July 2, Gregory Loren Myers pleaded guilty to charges of menacing and agreed to serve five days in jail. Judge Russell W est gave him creditfor time served following his county jail incarceration after his April arrest and the 29 days he spent in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction. Myers also agreed to reenroll in treatment after he serves his jail term. The original charges were three counts of menacing, strangulation, interference with making a report and harassment. Wallowa County Deputy District Attorney Becky Frolander said the charges stem from two incidences, Christmas Eve 2013 and Easter Eve 2014, in which Myers, while under the influence of alcohol, put his wife and daughters at risk of violence. Myers pulled a gun on his wife in one incident and said, "It would be good for your children to see you die." During the second incident in April Myers' family was able to get away from him and charges were filed. Frolander said Myers has a 10-year history of domestic violence.

The news that the La Grande School District intended to bring back a school resource oKcer has been around for a couple months. Still, we couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when the district,

Union County Sherirs OKce and La Grande Police

Union County Sherirs Deputy Cody Bowen will serveas the district's resourceoKcer in 2014-15. Bowen has been a deputy with the sherirs department for 3-1/2 years. He is a familiar face in local schools because he works with students in the Drug Abuse Resistance Education program. Bowen will work in all schools in the district, which last had a resource oKcer about four years ago before the position was cut because ofbudget problems. SROs are an important element to any school for a number of reasons but the real bright spot here is that these three agencies — all taxpayer funded — worked as a team to address an important issue. School safety is no longer one of those nebulous items we can all sort of take for granted. That kind of sentiment ended a long, long time ago. Public agencies — especially law enforcement — do not oken secure the limelight in a way that is clearly positive. Aker all, police work, by its very nature, oken highlights the negative aspects of the community. But these law enforcement agencies — and the

district — really did do something good and right for the community by working on and then inking an agreementtoprovide the pathway for an SRO in

school halls. All three of these agencies deserve kudos for their work.

Hibbert: Build the new justice centerand save the shelter To the Editor: Building a new justice center is paramount. No one knows this better than I. Several years ago, Judge West, Judge Wasley and myselfled the way in assessing the needs of the courts, other departments as well as the financial limitations of the county. This issue is very familiar to me. There is no doubt in mind that this must be a priority. However, it defies logic to see that this greatneed be accomplished attheex-

pense of destroying a $500,000 building that was built first and foremost to the specifications of the Shelter From the Storm. In addition, there will be the cost oftearingitdown before ajusticecenter is even begun. My question is: Does the county have so much money that it will destroy this half-million-dollar building and lookatspending even more money to either build or retrofit another one for the shelter? Yes, the county did receive a $2 million grant from the state to assist in building a new justice center. In my eyes, this amount is already diminished by at least half a million dollars for the loss of the existing building, the cost to destroyitand the costoftherelocation oftheshelter. When the shelter was built, it represented the commitment of county government to support those most in need. How has this need changed? It saddens the heart to know that there are people, primarily women, who desperately seek the services and safety of the shelter. To tear down the shelter in favor ofbuilding a new justice center sends the message that the needs of the unfortunate are inconsequential. It is not as though thereare no otheralternatives forthe location of the new justice center. I implore those who are making the decision toreconsider destroying the

Shelter From the Storm building. This does not have to be a divisive issue. Building a new justice center should be one of celebration. It should not be one of sadness and angst for those who are being evicted, and it should definitely not be an issue that divides our community. R.

opinion of a man many know of. I think it's unfortunate that many continue to be angry, resentful and judgmental in the case of Joel Rice, and I'd like to take this opportunity to set the record straight, at least from my point of view. We can all agree, Joel included, that what he did was wrong. I can attest that from the first day since the incident, I have witnessed him remorseful and holding himself accountable for his actions. He has followed through with everything that has been put to him with no resistance throughout the process. Those who feel that he was not duly judged need to put their feelings on the system, not the man. He has simply pled his case and put himself at the mercy of the system. The system gave the consequences. That being said, I have been humbled and blessed to work with such an amazing individual. His depth of caring and love for other people is such I aspire to. For well over 25 years he has shared this with our community, taking care of a population ofhumans that frankly most of us don't have time or passion or feeling to tolerate, and thank God for his compassion. How many of our lives has he touched in one form or another with his service? Icouldgo on forpagesabout the worth of Joel Rice, but I won't. Many view him and the situation with contempt. What truly are we to gain from this? We have a great opportunity as a community to reap the benefits of his service, not like he needed a legal motivatoranyway. But also,what ofourown opportunity to grow as a community and as a person? Forgiveness doesn't equal condonement, and acceptance does not equal approval. Joel has admitted his mistakes, and is making amends for them. How is it then that many continue to be bitter and hold another brother in contempt? And how long will some continue to hold resentment, justified or not, at the cost of our emotional well-being? There is no going back only moving forward. We couldn't ask for a better responsefrom a"criminal" excepttodo everything our system says he must do, which is exactly what is happening.

Traffic has at least slowed to the point where they aren't stopping people all the time, so they have to find other ways to entertain themselves.

FLAGGERS

Thomas said her favorite response came from a woman who asked if the road would be closed all day and whether she should take another route or wait. "It's going to be a while — October, November. Did you bring a lot of food," Thomas answered. Though some travelers have been difficult to work with and get turned around,many turn around beforethey arestopped by aflagger.Some people who live near the closure have taken it upon themselves to treat the flaggers to drinks. Trish McMichael of Pendleton has been filling in for flaggers, working various shifts. On one night shift, a nearby resident asked if she wanted

Beverly Lousignont, CEO of Certified Personnel, the company contracted with ODOT for flaggers, said the flaggers provide an important safety aspectto theroad closure and also bringa"human element." The fl aggers say they are dumbfounded with what people think they can do — like negotiate through a work zone into oncoming traffic. "Road closed means road closed," Lousignont said.

Windy conditions helped make the firedifficult to contain. 'The wind was blowing hard,"Wooldridge said."It pushed the fire through the house." The fire was also hard to control because of the house's metal roof, which contained the fire's heat, Wooldridge sald.

Djokovic wins Wimbledon LONDON (AP)Novak Dlokovic's large lead in the rollicking Wimbledon final was slipping away, due in no small part to Roger Federer's regal presence and resurgent play No manhas won tennis' oldest major tournament more often than Federer, and he was not about to let it go easily. Djokovic went from being a point from victory in the fourth set to suddenly caught in the crucible of a fifth, and knew all too well that he had come up short in recent Grand Slam title matches. Steeling himself when he so desperately needed to, Serbia's Djokovic held on for a 6-7 (7), 6-4, 7-6 (4), 5-7, 6-4 victory after nearly four hours of momentum shifts Sunday to win Wimbledon for the second time — and deny Switzerland's Federer what would have been a record eighth championship at the All England Club.

Argentina, Holland win RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — TheArgentines didn't need a late winner from Lionel Messi this time, settling in to protect a 1-0 margin against Belgium that earned them a first trip to the World Cup semifinals in 24 years. The Netherlands could have used a late goal from Robin van Persie or Wesley Sneijder or Arjen Robben later Saturday but didn't get one, only edging Costa Rica 4-3 on penalties to set up a semifinal against Argentina. The flood of goals from the group stage slowed to a trickle in the knockout rounds, with the four quarterfinals yielding just five goals. Brazil's 2-1 win over Colombia on Friday night was relatively highscoring compared with the 1-0 results by Germany against France and Argentina against Belgium.

LOSTINE — Less than a year after giving birth to her daughter Riley, Eastern Oregon graduate Alma Crow emerged as the winner at the Lostine River Run 5k Saturday with a time of 18 minutes, 49 seconds. "I was really nervous. I just wanted to place in the top 10," Crow said. Crow, a La Grande High School track coach, brought team members Elliott Jonnasson, who won the 10k in 35:21, and Todd Keniry was just

behind him finishing at 35:29. Tim Vandervlugt, also of La Grande, placed third in 36:19. "I was very excited," Crow said."I tried to stay with the kids, but I didn't know what to expect. I love the course, it's a greatrace.Iliked the driveout to the start and it went by fast. It's no wonder they've been doing this for 31 years." ''We had good competition most of the race." Jonasson said of the 10k. Crow said the La Grande High School team is running many miles to prepare for the upcoming cross country season. Crow said the first meet is in Hermiston after school starts. The

Plen of ways to beat the heat We were spoiled by a cool June. Daily temperatures ofhighs in the 80s will be a thing of the past for the next couple of months. The heat is here so we might as well enjoy it. How lucky we are to be surrounded by creeks, rivers, lakes and ponds, cool mountain trails and parks with lush green grass No matter the time of day there are ways to beat the heat that arefree,and fun forallages. Have you ever considered going to a park first thing in the morning? Not only does an early park outing allow you to avoid the heat, but also you are likely to have the park to yourself. Head on over right after breakfast when kids are usually cheery anyway. It's a great way to start the day. The chores and errands can wait until it startsto heatup.

AND SO IT GROWS

'Tis a season

tothink about trees As I've watched spring turn into summer in Baker City, trees have been on my mind. And with them, the song"All the Girls I've Loved Before."It'snotoneof my favorite tunes, in fact I think it's kind of sappy — pun intended — and maybe that's why my mind has incorporated the melody with my thoughts of trees. The song, popularized in a duet sung by Willie Nelson and Julio Iglesias in the '80s, contains lyrics about the women who have"come in and out their doors." I have turned the tune to my own theme:"All the Trees I've Loved Before." I would sing,"... that I've enjoyed in the great outdoors." SeeTrees/Ptrge 2B

Rules, and those who break them It felt like a Saturday as I drove down 12th Street, shifting over to Sixth Street via Gekeler Lane, with full views of Mount Emily directly ahead. It wasn't Saturday but only Wednesday and the Saturday feeling was not one like I had known in the past. My eyes poked into the tall evergreens on the far slope of the landmark mountain in search of snow — any m ound hidden beneath the tree branches — spotting none despite my probing. Time to plant early garden. How often the gardening theory had been pressed to my ears that you don't plant until all of the snow leaves Mount Emily. SeeDory /Ebge 2B

Summer treats are a great way to escape the heat! There is nothing more refreshing than healthy snacks made with the abundance of summ er fruit s. Who doesn't have memories of eating watermelon or ice cream in the summertime? I am sharing with you my two favorite recipes that combine them both: Watermelon Fruit Popsicles and Watermelon Sorbet. Theserecipes areeasy and delicious for kids of all ages. Please know that you can be creative with the popsicles using many different types of fruit. The pureed watermelon helps to hold the popsicle together.

Watermelon Fruit Po sicles 3 Cups watermelon puree (about 1/4 to 1/2); you can use honeydew or melon puree. 1/2 Cup fresh blueberries 1/2 Cup chopped strawberries 1/2 Cup blackberries 2 Kiwi, peeled and thinly sliced 1 Cup cherries, seeded and sliced 1 Dozen popsicle molds

I used fresh organic fruit. This is a great casein-free alternative to ice creams. Fill the popsicle molds with the freshly chopped fruit. Pour the watermelon puree into each mold filling to the top. Place in your freezer for 6-8 hours. Run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to release the popsicle.

Watermelon Sorbet 4-5 Cups watermelon The juice of one lime 1/4 Cup honey 1/8Teaspoon Guar Gum (optional) Finding healthy refreshing summertime deserts is one way to get through those hot summer days. Watermelon is full of antioxidants and offers high amounts of lycopene, which has been found to be protective against certain forms of cancer. This recipe of Watermelon Sorbet is sugar-free and simple to make. Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend until the honey is mixed and the watermelon is pureed. Freeze the watermelon for at least 6 hours. Return to the food processor and using the pulse button, pulse into a nice sorbet texture. Using an ice cream scoop serve and enjoy immediately.

etbn atasteo o ise — on oot One of my purposes in writing"Out and About"is toprovidesuggestions for those ofyou who wish to do some weekend traveling and want to know in advance what to expect without having to do a lot of research. Peoplehave begun to teaseme about making so many trips to Boise. In response to them I have to say that Boise is an easy weekend trip and has much to offer. Several weeks ago Dale and I made another trip to Boise. After all the other visits this one showed us something new and refreshingly different. Many times we have a particular mission to accomplish and this one was no different. We neededto have am ajorservicefor our car. Normally our lodging is not within walking distance of anything ofinterest so we spend a lot of time in the car driving fiom place to place. This time with no car, and than4 to some research done by Dale prior to the trip, we had a great time. He had located a wonderful place to stay — Hotel 43. The name comes from the fact that it is on the 43rd parallel in the 43rd state. Its location is on West Grove and is within walking distance

ing people and were swept up in the movement toward the Eighth Street Market. This covered at least six city blocks with booths on both sides of the street selling just about anything you could imagine. Plus there was music of some kind in every block. Eighth Street was blocked off and at each crossstreettherewas a guard to control the amoeba-like grouping so that neither the cars nor the people were inconvenienced. One ofthecrossstreetshosted a Gay PrideParade as partofaday-long festival. It had been nearly two hours since we had had any food, so what looked good? Well, to be truthful, nearly everything. So we sharedand tried severalthings. The Himalayan dumplings with cilantro curry sauce were pretty tasty, but the 16-inch crepe filled with turkey, artichoke pesto, Swiss cheese, spinach, and huckleberry balsamic sauce was my favorite. How does one eat this creation? It was very easy. The filled crepe was rolled and placed in a long narrow triangular box on a piece of paper that pulled out as you were ready to take the next bite. It was really quite efficient and not at all messy. SeeOut 4 About/Bge 2B

2B —THE OBSERVER a BAKER CITY HERALD

DORY Continued ~om Page 1B There was no problem crossingstreetsasIdrove,for the feeling of a sleepy town was supported by the lack of cross traffic. How often had I thought that we needed a traffic light or at least a fourway stop at Gekeler and 12th, N and Sixth. It belied the necessity on this sunny day. Funny howIhad told myself that it felt like Saturday when the ones I had known in my younger days had been full of a busy, noisy downtown. Even at the post office there was no traffic lined up to mail last-minute missiles before the truck would gather and leave town with its load of mail. I laid the absence of traffic to the feet of schools, now on summer vacation, but it couldn't account for it all. Parking was available wherever I chose in the business district. The men who had earlier hollered my name in a fiiendly fashion kom high on the Phoenix building scaffolding were missing at lunchtime, but I cast an eye up that way, admiring their continuing work to beautify the building. Only in La Grande, I had thought as I had called back to them. "I like it," I would have encouraged them this day. Workmen were busy at the city hall's west side steps, plastic sheeting protecting the sheared shrubbery on either side. That they were about ready to call it a day came by their activity of packing their rig with buckets kom which they had toiled and cleaning up the areas so that their presence would soon be unknown except for the yellow warning tape. Traffi cm oved up and down the main thoroughfare in polite passage; customers in placesofbusiness blended theirvoicesintothefabricof

the places they kequented; folks basked in the warmth of the sunshine. My lunch companion and I were unhurried. Things were being accomplished on this business day as usual, but I still felt a hushed silence penetrating my day.Iwasrelaxed overmy meal and last cup ofbrew. That is, until bicyclists pellmelled down the Adams Avenue sidewalk right outside the restaurant windowpane, bursting into the middle of myday. The hair bristled on the back of my neck. I don't have much hair left to bristle but I felt it bristle just the same. "How dast they ruin my

day," Daphne growled, popping up from nowhere. 'Tve been told that there are no longer any rules and we may as well get used to it," I whispered to her in confidence as another bicyclist rodeby going the opposite direction. A car turned around in the middle of the street to park on the other side, headingin thereverse direction. "I never will," she retorted. "Rules and laws are made for a specific reason to help us all. I've even seen skateboarders whizzing by on the downtown sidewalks and get away with itin spite of the law. They go so fast they could hurt someone seriously. Why doesn'teveryone have to obey the rules?" Just then we saw the lady police officer park her little white car, get out and begin her two-hour parking limit tire-marking warning job kom the sidewalk as she strolled along, enjoying the loveliness of the day, doing double-duty. Daphne and I looked at each other. Then she spoke again. "I guess it depends on who you are and which rules you choose to break," she said sadly."How much more time do we have left on our car?"

"We said goodbye acouple of summers ago to a

Continued ~om Page 1B The first tree that made a lasting impression on my life still grows in what was my grandparents' kont yard when I was a little kid. The gigantic weeping willow now shades the back side of my sister's home on the same property. When my little sister, my big brother and I were growing up in the early 1960s, the willow shaded my grandparents' yard through the heat of summer. And it providedthe fi rsttree-climbing lessons for my sister, my brother and me. We girls watched in awe as our champion tree-climbing brother made his way cleartothetop ofthewillow that already seemed humongous all those 50-some years ago. Granddad regaled us with the story ofhow the tree was not much more than a twig when he and Grandma planted it. For the past decade or so, the tree has been the anchor for a tire swing and a climbing rope for the next generations: my sister's kids and grandkids and their cousins. Not every memory of the treeispleasant.Forone thing, it always did — and still does — drip "honeydew," a product secreted by the aphids that thrive in the tree. And anyone familiar with aphids knows what a sticky mess the honeydew creates. Itcoversthelawn furniture, toys and any vehicles parked near the tree. Still, I'm glad it remains at my sister's home to commemorate the yard we traveledthrough toGrandma and Granddad's kont porch and the place where my brother, sisterand Iplayed

Although it is slightly tilted and kind of quirky looking, it's my latest tree to love. Not only is it shading our backyard this summer, it has welcomed a robin that I suspected was only interested in pilfering strawberries kom our backyard patch. Instead, the bird was scopingout the perfectnesting site. I was surprised one afternoon to look up into the tree to find only the bird's tail feathers hanging out of a well-hidden nest of grass and twigs it had built in the top halfofourtree.

M ost Caribbean coralreefs will disappear within the next 20 years unless action is taken to protect them, primarily due to the decline of grazers such as sea urchins and parrotfish, a new report has warned. A comprehensive analysis by 90 experts of more than 35,000 surveys conducted at nearly 100 Caribbean locations since 1970 shows thatthe region'scoralshave declined by more than 50 percent. But restoring key fish populations and improving protection from overfishing and pollution could help the reefs recover and make them more resilient to the impacts ofclimate change, according to the study from the Global Coral Reef Monitoring Network, the International Union for Conservation of Nature and the U.N.'s Environment Program. While climate change and the resulting ocean acidificationand coralbleaching does pose amajor threattothe region, the report — Status and Trends of Caribbean Coral Reefs: 1970-2012found that local pressures such as tourism, overfishing and pollution posed the biggest problems. And these factors have made the loss of the two m ain grazer species,the parrotfish and sea urchin, the key driver of coral decline in the Caribbean. Grazers are important fish in the marine ecosystem as they eat the algae that can

smother corals. An unidentiied disease led to a m ass f mortality of the sea urchin in 1983 and overfishing throughout the 20th century has brought the parrotfish population to the brink of extinction in some regions, accordingto the report. Reefs where parrotfish are notprotected have suffered significant declines, including Jamaica, the entire Florida reef tract from Miami to Key West, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. At the same time, the report showed that some of the healthiest Caribbean coralreefsare those that are home to big populations ofgrazing parrotfish.These include the U.S. Flower Garden Banks national marine sanctuary in the northern Gulf of Mexico, Bermuda and Bonaire — all of which have restricted or banned fishing practices that harm parrotfish.

to 9percent oftheworld's coral reefs, but only around one-sixth of the original coral cover remains. The reefs, which span 38 countries, are vital to the region's economy and support the more than 43 million people, generating more than $3 billion annually from tourism and fisheries and much more in other goods and services. According to the authors, restoringparrotfish populations and improving other management strategies could help the reefs recover."The rate at which the Caribbean corals have been declining is truly alarming," said Carl Gustaf Lundin, director of IUCN's global marine and polar program."But this study brings some very encouraging news: the fate of Caribbeancoralsisnot beyond our control and there are some very concrete steps that we can take to help them recover."
