Winter Wind Damages Arthur Godfrey Tree A t Mason Lake I l%cent winter winds tore a huge arm off a lofty maple tree dedicated to radio-television per- sonality Arthur Godfrey by tim Simpson Titular Company in 1957. The tree was dedicated when the "Arthur Godfrey Time" tele- vision show was filmed at Simp- sma's Mason Lake Recreation Area. In August of i957 more than 50 television people from New York and Hollywood camped in tents at the Recreation Area. Two television shows originated from lason Lake, featuring a logging show and the story of Pacific Northwest reforestation, in addition to performances by members of the Godfrey troupe. At the time the Arthur God- frey Tree was dedicated, God- frey was made an honorary member of the Simpson Recrea- tion Association. The tree still stands, but a huge hole now gapes on the side where the arm was torn off. iiii :,iii!ii!iiiiiiiii+:: [ ll(tN PIECEI of the Arthur n Godfrey Tree lie on the ground benea,.h ding portion of the maple in this 1967 picture. , H.., ......... in the who four .tn. teaches a teach. of the at. similar their and at the the after parlor.
