tie and his wife, Myrtle, who
shares his hobby, were camping at
Polly Drummond's Agate Beds, a
40-acre field i1: Oregon where for
a daily fec cnlhusiasts dig for
rocks in back-hoed trenches.
Although the average person
will dig from 150 to 200 pound~'
of agates in a day, most of them
-oun
run approximately eight ounces in
weight with a two inch diameter.
Occasionally a ten or 15 pound
stone is obtained, but a find like
Gasser's is ; most unusual. Only
one larger agate was ever taken
from the field, a rock weighing
109 pounds dug two years ago.
Accompanying the Gassers on
their week-long expedition were
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Grunert of
Shelton. Grunert scored with a 15
pound cornelian agate and
another weighing 12 pounds, both
dug approximately three feet

huge prize•
Ronald and Myrtle Gosser are
members of Shelton Rock and
Mineral Society, and the big agate
will be exhibited in the club's
booth at the fair. Gosser plans to
leave the stone intact except for
the slabbing and polishing of one
side.
The Gossers, whose interest in
rocks was instigated last October,
dig agates all summer and spend
the winter months fashioning
their finds into jewelry.

he said. They are the district's
enrollment during the coming
school year and whether or not
the state raises the amount per
square foot it will match.
Grinnell was instructed by the
board to ask the architect for the
new high school complex to
prepare his ideas on the football
field, track, grandstands and
fencing so he can discuss with the
board at its August meeting the
possibility of constructing these
facilities before the main school
complexis done.
Limerick Has
New Officers
Everett E. Kissler of Tacoma
is the new president of Lake
Limerick Country Club, Inc. His
election Saturday by the board of
trusttes followed the club's
annual membership meeting.
Four trustees, including
Kissler, were re-elected at the
membership meeting. Five new
trustees were elected. Retiring
President Fred A. Roswold of
Seattle is one of the five trustees
who did not seek re-election.
Anthony Paradise of Seattle
was elected vice-president to
succeed Kissler. Norman Schreck,
also of Seattle, is the new
secretary. Duane Damen of
Bellevue was elected treasurer.
A large turnout of
owner-members elected Kissler,
Leo "Doug" Redburn of Seattle,
At Hill of Lake Limerick and
Schreck trustees for three-year
terms. Chosen for two-year terms
on the board were Paradise, Frank
Petoski of Spanaway, Floyd Jones
of Lake Limerick and James
Latimer of Shelton. Roy J. Brown
of Lake Limerick was elected for
a one-year term.
Retiring trustees in addition
to Roswold are George Deleau
and George E. Olson of Seattle,
Edward Moon of Snohomish and
Duane "Jim" Ergen of Boulevard
Park.
Grinnell told the board this
could be done since the state does
not provide matching funds for
these facilities so the district
could go ahead with them on
their own if they want to.
The board voted to call for
bids, to be opened at the August
meeting, on fuel oil, bakery
products and dairy products for
the coming school year.
The board accepted the
resignations of Helen Huntley
who is retiring as a special
education teacher at Rogers
School, and David Dickinson,
history and psycology teacher at
Garrett Heyns High School at the
Washington Corrections Center.
The board, on the
recommendation of Grinnell,
voted to hire Janet Miller and
Katherine Foseide as elementary
teachers. Both were on leave of
absence the past school year. New
teachers hired include Vicki
Ownes, first grade; Calvin Waits,
vocation auto mechanics at
Garrett Heyns High School;
Laurel Vice, vocational welding at
Garrett Heyns; Johnny
German, vocational drafting at
Garrett Heyns and Court Lantz,
chemistry and photography at
Shelton High School.
Grinnell told the board that
most of the positions in the
district were filled now, but, the
exact number of teachers needed
in the elementary program would
depend on approval of federal
funds for a couple of projects and
the enrollment in the district
when school starts.
