Bridge Opening Set For Sunday Afternoon
By CARMEN YATES started his employment with Mo- the Jack Tedders from Centra-
. ltARSTINE Just a note
al×mt the bridge opening cere-
monies Sunday. I)u(, to the park-
ing situation on the mainland
side, it has been suggesled that
as many as [)ossible leave their
cars on the Island and walk
across the bridge prior to the
Dedication C(,remony which is to
commence at 2 p.ln. However,
if you fe(,l it necessary to take
a (:ill' over it nlay be done on
the 1 p.m. ferry. Following the
rihbon cutting a procession will
then head for the tlall for the
Open House. llere again parking
will pose ;t problem so some
may prefer k) take a short ri(le
around the Ishmd before going
to the I/all. I{el'reshmenls will
be served for two hours, from
3 p.m. to 5 p,m. and you may
rest assured the Island gals have
planned for lois of people so there
shouldn't be much danger of
them running out of either cook-
ies or coffee before some of you
folks get there.
Grangers will meet' this Fri-
day night at the Ilalt. The busi-
ness meeting to be preceded
I)y a pot luck supper to start at
6:30 p.m.
Oh yes, another date to keep
in mind. Cleanup after the Open
House and just prior to the Soc-
tars Club 4th of July dance is
scheduled for June 26, a Thurs-
day. The dance incidently will
be July 5 and will feature the
four members of the Group call-
ed the Little Blue Echoes. Their
music, we are told, is in the
western flavor. A midnight sup-
per during the dance will be
served in the kitchen.
Up from Portland this past
weekend were Dixie Arata and
her two youngsters, each accom-
panied by a friend, to vlsit Dix-
ie's folks, the Gordon Simmons.
Saturday tim womenfolk and
children all headed north up the
Olympic Peninsula. Their desti-
nation was to the Forest Theater
to spend a delightful afternoon.
Prior to the play everyone brings
a picnic lunch. Then the gate
opens and everyone proceeds up
an enchanting forest trail to the
open air Theater. This e '
y ar s pro-
duction performed by the Moun-
taineer Players was Calico Ca
go.
ARer more than 35 years with
the same company, Wayne
Browning quietly walked out of
his office, returned home from
work in Seattle for the last time
last Friday evening. Last March
marked 35 years since Wayne

Olympia Brewing Company
Tumwater, Washington
bil Oil Company. And for the
enlire time he was with the com-
pany he worked mainly in the
lhree Iowns of Seattle, Tac.oma,
and Aberdeen. The celebration
and dinner in his honor will, no
doubt, take place sometime in
July.
l,ast week two g(xxt friends
took a week's jaunt down to Can-
non Beach in Ore. They were
Grace Williams and Dot Smith.
They had a leisurely time rela.x-
ing and takirkg it e,'Luy from Mon-
day until Friday when they re-
turntl to the Island.
Two young boys from Olympia
were out playing a Robinson
Crusoe one clay last week. They
had matte themselves a make-
shift raft. But besides being
equiped with the usual oar or
paddle and rigged for a sail to
take advantage of the breeze it
had one other modern conveni-
ence that those sailors of old
lacked - a small outboard motor!
They also had another ace in
the hole when they discovered
they didn't have the necessary
funds to camp at the State Park
an(t it was too late to sail home,
even with a motor; they located
a telephone at the Marina and
called mon and dad.
Our neighbors the Steig Gabriel-
sons reported seeing an otter
swimming in the bay in front of
their home on Speneer's Cove one
evening last week, This is the
first one that's been reported
sighted so far this summer. How-
ever, last summer several were
seen around the Island.
Alvin Anderson and his family
arrived a little over a week ago
to spend the summer here in the
Pacific Northwest. During the
winter they've been down in sun-
ny Santa Barbara, Calif. where
son, Mark, attended school.
On an especially pretty day
the latter part of last week Har-
old Seibring and his sixteen year-
old grandson, Stormy decided to
go for a drive. And it was Har-
stine Island where hey ended
up. Their first stop was at the
stine Island where they ended
ed other friends here on the Is-
land. Nothing too unusual, you
say, only that they live at Pine-
hurst, Calif., located in the moun-
tains somewhere in the Redding
vicinity. Just a bit of a longer
drive than most of us would take
on a summer afternoon.
Other visitors at the MaNna
this past weekend included the
Nesses son, Glen and his wife,
Sally and their two girl,. Also
dropping in were Sally's louts,
lia.
Sid and Mary Baunsgard took
a drive up to Lakewood tiffs past
weekend. They were anxious o
see their daughter and family
as the Barry Burkhalters had just
had their backyard completely
revamped. When they returned
home they brought their grand-
son, Rick to stay for a couple
of weeks.
For the youngsters of Mason
County school at long- hmg last
came to an end for the summer
last Friday. Shelton students at-
tended school only long enough
to pick ut) their report cards.
However, for the Pioneer stu-
dents it was picnic day for the
whole school. The picnic was held
at the Simpson Recreation area
on Mason Lake. After everyone
had played the usual picnic ype
of games everyone enjoyed a pic-
nic lunch. After that report cards
were passed out and hey all
hopped on the buses o riump-
hantly head home for the sum-
mer.
Army Needs Communications
lib The nervous system of an
Army is its communications net-
'. work. Through the air and
through wire go the multitude of
messages required to plan, fight
and resupply the line of battle.
At the center of this network
is the U. S. Army communica-
tions specialist. Trained to get
the message through, whether
carried by courier or transmitted
on complex communications de-
vices, the comm center specialist
is a kingpin of command.
Trained at the U. S. Army
Signal Training Center, Fort Gor-
don, Ga., the new soldier under-
goes nine weeks of fast-paced
training before he is ready to
take up his new duties. During
automatic, semiautomatic and
the nine-week course, he studies
manual teletypewriter equipment,
cryptographic procedures and the
t)asics of communications center
operations and procedures.
This course is one of many
which he may undertake during
his career. Other courses prepare
him to supervise communica-
tions operations or to specialize
in the fascinating field of cryp-
tography, the science of encoding
or decoding messages to prevent
them being intercepted by an
enemy.
