more if you want), musical en-
tertainment, a chance to see and
hear a sports celebrity, and a
chance to rub elbows with an ath-
letic team ?
You want to know, huh! Well,
it's at the Rotary Club's annual
post-season basketball dinner hon-
oring the 1963 Highclimber bas-
ketball players and their moth-
ers.
The time s next Thursday
night at 6:30. the place is Mt.
View school cafeteria.
THE TURKEY DINNER is one
of those famed feeds prepared by
the school kitchen crew and serv-
ed by the cute girls of the home
economics classes at Irene S.
Reed high school.
The celebrity is Bob Houbregs,
who only s short 10 years ago led
the University of Washington
Huskies to the Pacific Coast con ,
ference basketball championship
and to the semi-finals of the
NCAA tournament, in the process
of which he scored 43 points as
the Huskies swamped Seattle Un-
iversity led by the famous John-
ny and Eddie O'Brien twins in
the only meeting between the
Huskies and the Chieftains in
history.
THAT WAS THE YEAR Hou-
bregs set a Husky scoring record
nd became an All-Aberican along
with O'Brien, the only time two
players from Seattle ever made
All-American at the same time.
Houbregs followed that up with
five years of professional basket- BOB HOUBREGS
ball. He zs now supervisor of a All-American Coming
boys all-star sports camp near
Seattle. "Hoob" will be principal or from any Rotary Club mem-
speaker at the banquet, her.

She Submitted her resignation
o the board, effective at the end
Jf her current term in office which
ends with the reorganization

She says she has no particu-
lar plans for her retirement.
MRS. MURPHY has seen a lot
of changes in the school district
)potation since she first took ov-
er as clerk. At that time, the
mperintendent's office was in the
:Irene S. Reed building. It has
since been moved to new quart-
ers in the Evergreen School.

been built during her time in of-
rice, the Evergreen, Bordeaux, Mt.

City Mulls '
Water, Sewer
For Park
Development of Callanan Pm
ms progressed about as far as
.'an until water and sewer lines
::or r'st room facilities, and, for
ase in watering plants, the Shel-
:on City Commissmn was told
Tuesday night. "
A delegation of Jaycees ap-
peared at the commissic{n meeting
to ask if the city had funds av-
il.'ble to install" the water and
sewer lines.
City u)mr':isor Pat Byrne said
he h;d mi(te a rough estimate o:
!./n)nt $2.300 for just matvrials to
:11 the waLer and sewer 1.o where
',,e 1)}ms eaii for the permaneI
,.s room facilities.
MAYOR FRANK TRAVIS said
that there was no provision flz
the 1963 budget for the work and
it was doubtful if that amount
of funds could be squeezed out.
Arnold Fox, acting as spokes-
man for the Jaycees.-said the
, group had been working on the
park with the idea it could be
put into shape for use by the
public this summer.
Byrne suggested the possibility
of temporary restroom facilities
for this summer in a location clo-
ser to existing water and sewer
lines.
Travis said tills appeared to be
the best bet and suggested city
officials and Jaycee representa-
tives explore the possibility.
iF SUCH A PLAN could be
worked out, Travis said, the com-
mission would do its best to find
the money some place in the bud-
get to get the job done.
The Jaycees also asked the city
to establish the grade on E street
so the planned parking lot can
be graded off. Byrne said he would
get this done.
Byrne reported to the commis-
sion that the contractor's work
on the repair of the Angle Way
slide area was complete.
A letter was received from Con-
gresswoman Julia Butler Hansen
stating she had contacted the
Community Facilities Corporation
about the city's request for funds
under the Accelerated Public
Works Program and that a check
on the status of the request was
in progress.
Police Chief Paul Hinton said
1963 dog licenses are now avail-
able and that the 1962 licenses
expire June 30. Licenses purch-
by the board at the Monday re- ased now will be good until June
organization meeting. 30, 1964, he said.
