A NEW 2,000 KVA voltage regulator is shown being set in place
in Mason County P.U.D. No. 3's Kneeland Sub adjacent to the
Bonneville Power Administration's Mason Sub in Shelton. The
new regulator will provide regulation for all circuits out of the
Sub Station and by a change in the main bus feeders allow
portions of the station to be de-energized for partial upgrading
and rebuilding.
lanning
very first grandchild arrived a
week ago Tuesday. Bryan Roger
weighed in at 61bs. and 7 oz. in a
San Diego, Calif., hospital. The
proud new parents are Roger and
Raquel Cruickshank. And the new
grandma, with buttons popping,
was in town for the big event,
having left here a couple of weeks
ago to visit with friends and
relatives while awaiting the new
baby's grand entrance.
The Island in general and the
Island Shores area in particular is
welcoming some new residents
here as of last week. Late last
August the Elwood Bragets
started construction on their new
Island home. At the time they
hoped to be able to move around
the end of the year or at least
right after the turn of the new
year. However, disposal of their
Puyallup home either by sale or
lease took a bit longer than
planned. So at last, with the
house leased, Kay and Elwood
were able to move to the Island,
lock, stock, and barrel last week,
into the home that has been
finished and awaiting their arrival
for a little over three months.
They are delighted to be here and
the bread winner says getting to
and from work is child's play now,
compared to traveling to his job
at the Supply Center of the Puget
Sound Naval Company in
Bremerton from their former
home in Puyallup, as he has been
doing for these past many
months. Two dogs, Fritz and Dec
and a calico cat, Little, complete
the Braget family. However, as far
as Little is concerned someone
can move that big puddle (Case
Inlet) in front of the Braget
home; fill it in, drain it, anything
just get rid of it, since it has done
nothing but kick up its heels and
terrify her since her arrival here.
Other news from Island
Shores is that Alvin Anderson
arrived here the end of last week
from his winter home in Santa
Barbara. He called on Johnnie and
Lucille Johnson and said he will
probably be here until about the
end of next month, at which time
he'll return to California for his
wife, Peggy and son, Mark so that
they can all spend the summer here
in the Northwest.
Accompanied by close
relatives Mi Brassfield headed for
the sunny, warm side of our state
a week ago this past weekend.
Mi's daughter, Rheba and her
husband, Elmon Christopher and
their son Buck and his wife,
Karen and their two girls, left
Olympia bright and early on
Saturday morning headed for
Walla Walla to pay a visit to Mi's
grandaughter, Linda Walker and
her husband and family and their
two children• They picked that
particular weekend so they could
all help Linda celebrate her April
4 birthday. On the way over they
encountered a snow storm going
across the pass, but enjoyed warm
shirt sleeve weather all during
their stay.
The Island's small-fry are
having a busy week this week.
Monday the Cub Scout Den Six
of which Rusty Yates is a
member, along with Den Three
traveled to Shelton to be the
guests of Fire Chief AI Nevitt and
his firemen for a tour of the Fire
Station.
Thursday evening Pam and
Johanna Bridges and Lisa Yates
will join with the rest of the
Mason County Robinettes to
perform for the Shelton, P.T.A.
Sincere sympathy this week is
extended to the Stan Yates on the
loss of his sister, Lena Coffman.
She died Monday in Snoqualmie.
Funeral services will be at 1 p.m.
in her home-town of Sultan,
today.
We also learned that Ben
Rigney shortly after recovering
from a bout with the flu bug
suffered a sprained ankle while on
a trek through the woods. Friends
report after several weeks of being
pretty well confined to solid and
level footing his ankle is better

slowly but surely.
We noted when traveling
down to Ballow early this week,
that Lloyd and Ruth Goodwin
had given their house a facelifting.
Ruth reported that they had
managed to get two coats on the
house and had planned to do the
trim after coming home
Wednesday, however, the
weather left a bit to be desired, so
that job along with a facelifting
for their cruiser will have to wait
a bit longer.
Ruth reported that news-wise,
things had been quiet since they
came home from their trip to
Oregon during Spring Vacation,
to visit their son, Dick and his
family. She said their trip down
was especially enjoyable this year
as the Columbia River Gorge had
just been attired in a new spring
outfit, which was enchantingly
becoming to her. Then while they
were there Dick and his family
took them on a drive across
Tollgate Pass in LaGrande.
They encountered a real snow
storm going across the summit to
give them a taste of winter they
missed at home this year.
This reporter had a
delightful visit while shopping in
Shelton with a former resident of
the Island, Florence Powell. She
was looking" very good following
recent surgery. Also she told of
the recent birth of a new
grandson to her step-daughter
Joan and her husband, Roger,
back on the east coast. And the
excitement around the Powell
home is, that same morning her
step-son, Harlan and his wife,
Patty had moved a mobile home
into the Powell backyard and
were busy getting it ready for the
young couple's occupancv.
