100 YEARS AGO

Sept. 28, 1916

• A new school district, number 86, was created by the district boundary board at its last meeting. This includes the East Oregon logging camp where more than 200 men, women and children now live. School was begun without waiting for the formal orga-nization, as there are many children. A building belong-ing to the company is used at present.

• District 42, or Fairview, in Grouse, is building a new school house to replace that which was burned last spring. It will be ready for school about the first of November.

• Two of the well known residents of the county who have been thought immune to the automobile fever are showing strong symptoms this week of contracting the disease. They are Jack John-son and W.C. Dorrance.

• After Fred Falconer had reported 80-pound spring lambs, and E. F. Johnson had beaten him by producing a band that weighed 82 pounds, R.F. Stubblefield came to the front last week with some record breakers. The lambs weighed an average of 90 pounds each, lacking a frac-tion of an ounce.

• One feature advertised for the Wallowa county fair, the balloon ascension and para-chute drop, is lacking because of the death of the performer last week at the Washington State fair at North Yakima. The performer had gone to a great height and had dropped from two parachutes without accident. The third parachute failed to open, however ... so there was nothing to prevent him shooting to the earth.

• Final preparations are be-ing made today for Friday and Saturday when Enterprise will be host at the Wallowa county fair. The committee in charge of the rodeo and races reports that a lively interest among contestants has been shown in the bronc riding, bulldogging and racing events and a good show is in prospect.

• The Wallowa Cougars dedicated their new turf field with an impressive 33 to 0 win over the Joseph Eagles last Friday afternoon before a fine crowd.

• All of the school districts in the county, except district 38, Promise, now have teach-ers. There are 24 districts, em-ploying 72 teachers this year in the county, compared with a high of 62 districts operating in the county at one time with a total of about 120 teachers.

• The mobile X-ray unit which visited the county last year and took x-rays of 1173 persons will visit the coun-ty again in two weeks. Free chest x-rays will be taken at the rate of about 400 a day.

• W.J. Ortman has been appointed Wallowa coun-ty chairman of the Oregon chest which supports or helps support eight Oregon agen-cies including the Boys’ and Girls’ Aid society, the Oregon Protective society, the Chil-dren’s Farm home, and Wa-verly baby home, as well as four national agencies… The committee will appreciate it very much if the county quo-ta, approximately $2000, can be contributed during the two days (of the county fair).

50 YEARS AGO

Sept. 29, 1966

• It now appears that there is a good chance that the town of Wallowa will have its own dam about three miles south of Wallowa on Bear Creek.

The possibility came to life as the result of a letter to U.S. Congressman Al Ullman from Vern Mason of Wallowa.

• Photo: Dan Kooch of En-terprise was the exhibitor of the champion stallion at the horse show held at the Fair-grounds over the weekend.

• Mrs. Jim Best announced this week that she has sold her Ford-Mercury dealership in Enterprise to the Moffit Brothers of Lostine. The deal-ership, known for many years as Best Ford Sales, will now be called Moffit Ford Sales.

• Wallowa County resi-dents will have the opportu-nity to get their first glimpse of the new 1967 automobiles this weekend as nearly all of the local dealers will be hold-ing open house to show off their new models. Free coffee, donuts and door prizes will be offered by all car dealers during their respective open houses.

• For sale: 1965 Detroiter house trailer, 50 ft., furnished. Price $3500. Will take cattle, etc.

• Vale struck for three first quarter TD’s and then

rolled to a commanding 49-18 Greater Oregon Conference grid victory over Enterprise last Friday night on Ortman Memorial Field. The lopsided Vale victory didn’t out-shine the outstanding individual performance given by EHS quarterback Wayne Field who completed 20 of 33 passes for 225 yards and 3 touchdowns.

25 YEARS AGO

Sept. 26, 1991

• Photo: Among those riding the “HELP, Inc.” bus in Wallowa on Friday were Howard Kiser, Erma Land-ers, bus driver Sharlet Doud, Wanda Evans, Millie Larkin and Hilmer Murphey.

• A 3-day dedication of the new Imnaha Christian Fel-lowship Church building just outside Imnaha is planned Friday through Sunday, Sept. 27-29. Everyone is invited to share in this special Imnaha community event.

• The Wallowa Cougars moved the football well but came up short of points at Cove last Friday, losing to the Leopards, 42-12. Wallowa got yet another standout pass-

ing performance out of Lynn Jackson, who completed 11 of 22 passes for 176 yards. James Hayes was Jackson’s primary target, snaring 8 throws for 130 yards.

• Photo: All five students of the Deer Creek school on Rye Ridge in Wallowa County’s North End held a 10-year reunion August 18 on Lost Prairie, as did the one-room school’s teacher, Brenda Sullivan. The top pho-tograph shows the students in 1981 (Simon Habegger, Eli-za Habegger, Amy Jackman, Sarah Jackman and Becky Morrey), while the bottom photo was taken at the 1991 reunion (Amy, Eliza, Simon, Sarah and Becky).

Last week’s photo

A reader called to say that the photo of the Brownies troop that ran with last week’s column was taken in front of the Enter-prise Post Office and identified some of those in the photo as, back row, from left: Troop lead-er Jeanie Van Maren, Carl Ann Parker, Nancy Lombardi and Markell Victor; and front row: Carrie Van Maren, Carol Ann Kirby and Janet Wells.

THE SCENEOUT OF THE PAST

Compiled by Cheryl Jenkins

The Wallowa Valley Mu-sic Alliance is set to kick off its 10th season of Tunesmith Night, a monthly showcase of original music.

The series opener takes place Saturday, Oct. 8 at Stockman’s Lounge, 111 W. Main St. Enterprise and features Tara K Howe, Tom Drake and Mike Mallory.

Tara K Howe is a sing-er-songwriter from in Mos-cow, Idaho. Originating from folk and crossing genres, Tara has a powerful voice backed by a strong rhythmic guitar.

Tom Drake of Moscow, Idaho, crafts songs to leap the canyon between the heart and head, the poet and roadhouse, the grapes of wrath, the red mud Mississippi back roads and the old West.

For Mike Mallory, the song is the thing. Mallory has been playing music profes-sionally since age 15. Early on, he discovered the songs of Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zan-dt, Mississippi John Hurt and realized the songs were what spoke to him. He is comfort-able strapping on his Telecast-er and turning up to 11 or fin-ger picking his acoustic trying to imitate Mississippi John.

“That is the beauty of the players my age, we did not realize there was a division between acoustic and electric music,” said Mallory, who is a member of the La Grande alt-country/Americana band The Wasteland Kings, along with son Kris Mallory, who is lead vocalist and main song-writer for the group. This is Mallory’s third appearance at Tunesmith Night.

Tunesmith Night is pre-sented in a round-robin for-mat, with each musician play-ing a song, then the next taking a turn, creating an interesting and varied performance. Ad-mission is $10 at the door or by season pass. Doors open at 6 p.m. and music begins at 7. All ages welcome.

Tunesmith Night set to return Oct. 8
