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 If you like the Northwest the way it is please don't litter. 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.
