dozens, family and friends
numbering 75 gathered together
in the home of Matt and Gloria
VanLaanen, April I l to celebrate
the 50th wedding anniversary of
Mr. and Mrs. Joe McKiel, Gloria's
parents. A buffet was served,
topped off by a lacy wedding
cake decorated with the
traditional Golden Wedding Bells,
also following the gold for fifty
theme was an eye catching center
piece of gold chrysanthemums
and yellow roses. Mr and Mrs.
McKiel were married in
Montesano, and moved to
Hoodsport in 1923. Now retired,
the couple at one time owned and
opeated the Aquarium and motel

and spouse Earl Moran. Two
other sisters and their husbands
drove from PeEll, Mr. and Mrs.
Gifford Luzader, and Mr. & Mrs.
Mullenix. Yvonne and Julie Jo
VanLaanen enjoyed watching
their grandparents opening the
numerous gifts they received,
which included linens, silver, and
just a little of everything the
happy couple need to continue on
for another 50.
In Hospital
Col. James Jeffries, retired from
U.S. Army in 1950, was taken to
Mason County General Hospital
At its March meeting the
Thurston-Mason Mental Health
and Mental Retardation Advisory
Board began action on the
development of the 1971 plan for
the provision of Mental Health
and Mental Retardation Services
in Thurston and Mason Counties.
By law such a plan must be
prepared and submitted to the
county commissioners as the
qualification for receiving county
money and state grants-in-aide
money for community Mental
Health and Mental Retardation
Services.
Agencies participating in this
program at the present time are
the Community Mental Health
Center (Thurston-Mason),
Morningside, Inc., and
Exceptional Foresters. The next
meeting of the Advisory Board
will be held on April 22 at which
time opportunity will be provided
for interested citizens to offer
suggestions and express their
views in regard to community
mental health and mental
retardation services.
Robert Kimbel of Mason
County is chairman of the
Advisory Board. Other members
are Mrs. Jessamine Sherman,
Keith Goldenbuerger, Jack C.
Martin, William Pickles, Leland
Blankenship, Sister Claire
Gagnon, J. V. Deshaye, M.D.,

Mr1. Gtl~ys ~ b act/roll, a8
part-time coordinator for the
Advisory Board.

Courthouse Annex, Olympia,

will be made by the Advisory
Board May 27 after which it will
be referred to the boards of
county commissioners in
Thurston and Mason Counties for
final approval and submission to
the Department of Institutions by

A record sum of $203,000 in
state money has been earmarked
by the Washington State Air
Pollution Control Board this year
to help support six regional air
pollution control programs, Dr.
Wallace Lane, State Director of
Health and Board chairman, said
today.
The Puget Sound Air
Pollution Control Agency leads
the list with $167,417 of state aid
scheduled for the 12-month
period beginning July I, 1970,
, reflecting a change in the ratio of
state participation to compensate
for declining federal funding.
This compares with a grant of
$60,900 frmff the state for the
current 1~cal year. The State
Board earlier granted five other
regional agencies, operating on a
calendar year basis, a total of
$35,640, up from $28,610 in
1969.
The Board is convening in
Spokane on April 17 to resume
public hearings on proposed
statewide air quality standards
which would establish limits of
sulfur dioxide gas, suspended
particulate (particles floating in
the air) and particle fallout (dirt
which falls to the ground).
