The PUD's two star award
program sets voluntary standards
for energy efficiency in new
residential dwellings. It has been
designed for home builders and
those contemplating construction
or purchase of a new home.
According to Blakemore,
several other such homes are in
planning or are under
construction.
Part of the Energy Efficient
Home Award program includes
standards and awards for existing
homes. Blakemore says there has
been considerable interest by
PUD customers in energy-saving
measures for existing homes even
though few have been upgraded
to qualify for the award to date.
The William H. Pierson home
at 1539 Turner Street in Shelton
was the first to qualify for the
existing home energy efficient
award. Each home which meets
the program specifications for
energy efficiency will be certified
by the PUD, and this could be a
valuable asset in resale,
Blakemore says.
The PUD has been
admonishing customers to
upgrade the energy efficiency of
their homes as a means of coping
with the rising prices of energy.
"We feel that developing
conservation features in both
new and existing homes is a cost
effective approach to our energy
problems that will help
customers save money," says
Blakemore.
He suggests that people
considering building or
remodeling contact the PUD,
where staff consultants can
review construction or
remodeling plans and advise on
ways to make a home energy
efficient. Moreover, the utility
has free energy-saving booklets
plus personnel who will, on
request, make free surveys of
homes to point out potentials
for conservation improvements.

Suspended sentence is revoked
I
A five-year suspended
sentence given Robert Wilson,
36, Shelton, in 1976 on a charge
of possession of a controlled
substance was revoked Friday by
Judge Frank Baker after a
hearing on a petition for the
revocation.
Wilson was committed to the
custody of the Department of
Social and Health Services.
The petition to revoke the
suspended sentence was brought
by the Mason County
prosecutor's office on the
grounds that Wilson had not
lived up to the conditions of his
probation.
Among other things, the
petition stated, Wilson had been
charged with second-degree
assault and had left the state and
gone to California without
authorization by his parole
officer.
Wilson was arrested earlier
this year in San Diego,
California, on a warrant which
had been issued for him by the
Mason County Superior Court
after he had failed to show up
for a prior parole revocation
hearing.
Parole Officer Jerry Meacham
testified that Wilson had left the
area and gone to San Diego
without notification to him. He
said he learned Wilson had left
the state through a letter which
he received from Wilson's mother
in which a copy of a note Wilson
had left for his mother was
enclosed.
He said Wilson had told him
he left the state because he was
fearful of being sent back to the
Pierce County jail to serve the
remainder of a one-year sentence
which he had received on a
charge of driving while
intoxicated
Juanita Meek, Shelton,
testified concerning the incident
which had resulted in Wilson
being charged with second-degree
assault, a charge which was never
pressed and on which he was
released after 30 days in the
Mason County jail where he was
held on a parole hold.
Ms. Meek testified she had
been at a party with Wilson the
evening of April 4 and had 'come
home and went to bed about
12:30 a.m.
She stated about ll: a.m. the
next morning Wilson entered her
apartment through the front
door, which was unlocked.

She stated he came into the
bedroom where she was in bed,
sat down on the bed and poked
her in the ribs.
She said she told Wilson to
get out, that she was tired and
wanted him to leave. She said he
took off his boots.
She said they argued whether
he was going to get into bed
with her or whether she was
going to get up. She said she got
out of bed and went into the
kitchen where she dressed.
She said they continued
arguing and that Wilson picked
her up and carried her into the
living room, where she was able
to get free from him and go
outside. She stated she came
back in and then went out again
with the intention of going to
her landlady's house to see if she
could help her get Wilson out of
her apartment.
She stated she met her
landlady on the sidewalk and
they went to her landlady's
home, where her landlady's
daughter called the police.
Under cross-examination by
Ben Settle, Shelton attorney who
represented Wilson, she stated
she had had sexual relations with
him a few days before. She said
she did not believe Wilson would
have forced her that morning.
She also said she was tired
and had a hangover that
morning.
She also stated she had been
with Wilson since the incident
and was not afraid of him.
Dorothy Lewis, Shelton,
testified she owned the
apartment where Ms. Meek was
living the morning of April 5 and
that she had gone toward the
apartment after her daughter had
heard screaming there.
She said she met Ms. Meek
outside the apartment and that
Wilson was there also. She said
she took Ms. Meek and her own
children and went into her
home.
Wilson, she said, banged on
the doors and windows and
appeared to be kissing the
window. Her daughter, she said,
called the Shelton police
department.
Wilson left after banging on
the doors and windows and
rattling the door knobs, she said.
Wilson testified that he had
been convicted for forgery in
1969, had served a deferred
sentence and then pleaded guilty
to possession of a controlled
substance in 1976 for which he
was given a suspended sentence.
He said at the time he
pleaded guilty he was employed
by Simpson Timber Company,
was married and had three
children. He has since been
divorced, he said.
Wilson stated drinking was a
problem with him and that he
had been through two alcohol
treatment programs.
He said he was given a
suspended sentence on the
charge and, after, completing an
alcohol treatment program, had
been put on work release from
the Mason County jail.
His work release had been
stopped, he said, after it was
reported to officers that he was
not returning to jail immediately
after getting off work.
He said at the time of the
incident with Ms. Meek he had
been laid off at Simpson and had
been working for another logging
outfit.
He stated he thought she had
told him to come in when he
came to the door that morning.
He would not have forced her,
he said.
Wilson said he struggled with
officers who came to his home
later in the day and that he was
arrested and charged with
assault.
He was never brought to trial
on the charge, he said, and was
released from jail after being
there 30 days.
Wilson said he had gone to
court in Pierce County on a
charge of driving while
intoxicated which had occurred
before he was sentenced on the
controlled substance charge.
lte said he spent 4½ months
in the Pierce County jail and, at
the time of his release, he was
told to maintain employment or
go back to jail.
Wilson said a job which he
had lined up did not work out
and that he left for California
rather than return to jail.
