The Maranatha Sounds
Union:
Club has newsletter
By THELMA FLOOR
The newsletter recently
circulated to South Shore
residents, regarding
accomplishnlents of the Hood
Canal Improvement Club, was
researched and put together by a
team of club members and
historical buffs of the Union
area. Responsible for conception,
production and distribution of
this letter were Helen Rudy,
Karen James McCullough, Sally
Fisher and Mary Margaret Beley.
The Hood Canal Improvement
Club, over the years, has been a
catalyst between local residents
and various government agencies
and many of the improvements
we enjoy in our community can
be traced to the efforts of a few
unselfish and dedicated persons
Tracks are first made by a
sighted skier, then each blind
person has a guide skiing beside
him as they race around a course
the size of a horse-race track.
They compete - not against
each other - but against the
clock and against their own
built-in inhibitions. One woman,
blind since birth, said, "1 have
not felt so free since my parents
took me as a little child to an
ocean beach and let me run and
run and run." It was like a
sermon to all of us
non-handicapped to see the
enthusiasm and pure joy the
participants showed in the
two-day event.
About 30 persons attended;
some were guides and some a
part of the support system such
participation. LaNae Munsell and
Rick Aho, two blind skiers, sang
solos and duets and delighted
everyone with their beautiful
voices and performances. Tony
Floor accompanied them on the
piano and also played for
community signing.
Sunday Craig Johnson and
Renee Miller of KING-TV and
the AI Wallace "How Come?"
show came to Trollhaugen and
filmed the ski race and the
presentation of trophies. Every
blind skier received one of the
trophies for their participation
and their delight was something
to behold. The program will be
aired on "How Come?" and
Johnston thought the date would
be March 12.

A big "Welcome to our

in the neighborhood, and whose
mother, Ethel Dalby, still lives
on the waterfront property
owned by the family, is
returning with his family to
spend his retirement years in old,
familiar surroundings. A new
double mobile home is being
moved in and positioned for a
full view of Hood Canal. These
folks will be a great asset to the
community and we welcome
them home.

the Sons of Norway, is a
program which teaches
cross-country skiing to blind and
otherwise handicapped persons.

Comments given on
traffic violations
By TROOPER VERN GIDDINGS
Mason County Detachment, Washington State Patrol
The following is extracted in part from the Motor Code section
of the Revised Code of Washington State, R.C.W. 46.61.190. Vehicle
Entering Stop or Yield Intersection.
(1) Preferential right-of-way may be indicated by stop signs or
yield signs as authorized in RCW 47.36.110.
(2) Except when directed to proceed by a duly authorized
flagman, or a police officer, or a fire fighter vested by law with
authority to direct, control, or regulate traffic, every driver of a
vehicle approaching a stop sign shall stop at a clearly marked stop
line, but if none, before entering a marked crosswalk on the near side
of the intersection or, if none, then at the point nearest the
intersecting roadway where the driver has a view of approaching
traffic on the intersecting roadway before entering the roadway, and
after having stopped shall yield the right-of-way to any vehicle in the
intersection or approaching on another roadway so closely as to
constitute an immediate hazard during the time when such driver is
moving across or within the intersection or junction of roadways.
(3) The driver of a vehicle approaching a yield sign shall in
obedience to such sign slow down to a speed reasonable for the
existing conditions and if required for safety to Stop, shall stop at a
clearly marked stop line, but if none, before entering a marked
crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or if none, then at a
point nearest the intersecting roadway where the driver has a view of
approaching traffic on the intersecting roadway before entering the
roadway, and then after slowing or stopping, the driver shall yield the
right-of-way to any vehicle in the intersection• or:, approaching.m
another roadway soeiosely as to constitute an immediate hazard
during the time such driver is moving across or within the
intersection or junction of roadways: PROVIDED, That if such a
driver is involved in a collision with a vehicle in the intersecton or
junction of roadways, after driving past a yield sign without stopping,
such collision shall be deemed prima facie evidence of his failure to
yield right-of-way.
Violations of the above statute have accounted for many accidents
in Mason County in the past, some of which have resulted in serious
injury to occupants and in some cases death.
When approaching such intersections it is necessary to exercise
extreme caution, not only for your own safety and those of other
motorists but because the law requires. This law, like the rest, was
developed to protect motorists by providing definite guidelines for
operation of vehicles in and around such intersections. By following
the law as intended you are provided with the necessary time to
evaluate the speed of any vehicles approaching on the roadway you
intend to cross or enter and so determine whether or not it would
present a dangerous situation if you were to enter the intersection at
that time.
A quick glance down the road indicates there is a vehicle
approaching but you feel there is sufficient distance for you to pull
out. Your experience from hundreds of other California stops at the
same intersection tells you to go. Unfortunately this time the vehicle
approaching is exceeding the speed limit and before you can clear the
intersection... He was wrong, you may have been right - dead
right. It only takes a second or two or three to stop and look and
yield.
How many of you have been victims of such an incident and
wished that you could relive those few seconds so you could do it
the right way? How many of our friends, neighbors or relatives have
been killed by those same few seconds? Is the saving of those
precious few seconds so important to you that you would jeopardize
life itself?. What's your hurry?
Driving can be hazardous to your health.

SOME BENEFITS OF AGE
If you want more house
for your dollar, you have
good cause to look over older
aouses. But there are other
good reasons for shopping the
old ones, too.
For one thing, there are
simply more old houses than
new ones. For every new
house that will go up this year
there are some 45 existing
homes already on the market.
Many older homes,
especially those built before
World War II, offer more
abundant space than new
homes do -- a special
attraction if you have a large
and growing family, but a
imited budget.
Most old homes are in
well-established,
well-developed neighborhoods.
There will be no waiting for
streets to be paved, sewers to
be connected or schools to be
built. All that is going to
grace the neighborhood is
probably already there, so
that worrying about the
future will have been done for
you already.
If there is anything we can
do to help you in the field of
real estate, please phone or
drop in at MASON COUNTY
REALTY, 724 Railroad
Avenue, Shelton, phone
426-4486. We're here to help.
