Hospital will host class
on emergency response
Mason General Hospital will give a free class in cardiopulmo-
nary resuscitation, responding to heart attack and stroke recogni-
tion on Wednesday, September 19, from 6 to 9 p.m. in the Ellinor
Room at 901 Mountain View Drive in Shelton.
Persons attending the class are asked to wear comfortable
clothes. "We have added heart attack and stroke recognition to the
class because of the importance of getting patients to the emer-
gency room as soon as possible for treatment," said Tom DiDonna,
a registered nurse who is the education coordinator at Mason Gen-
eral Hospital. "The need to know how to perform CPR never goes
away, and recognizing the symptoms of a heart attack or stroke is
just as important."
Advance registration is required, as class size is limited. Res-
ervations must be made by Friday, September 14, by calling 427-
3609.

from Journal editions of Au-

month's Mason County Histori-
cal Society newsletter.)
Shelton's population dropped
25 from 1956. The population of
Shelton was 5,700, according to
the Washington State Census
Board.
Three weeks before the sched-
uled television broadcast by Ar-
thur Godfrey from the Simpson
Recreation Area on Mason Lake,
Pacific Telephone employees
were busy stringing lines and
making preparations for the link
to CBS. The program, featuring
the skills of Simpson Logging
Company loggers, was broadcast
August 7 and 8 on KTNT, Chan-
nel 11.
Superior Court Judge Charles
T. Wright administered the oath
of office to 26 members of the
newly organized Mason County
Sheriffs Reserve at a ceremony
in the courthouse. The men were
lauded for their public service.
The uniforms were purchased by
the men themselves.
A small group of public-mind-
ed residents who made up the lo-
cal post of the Ground Observer
Corps still manned the post 12
years after the end of World War
II. The Shelton GOC post frame
structure, known in the system
as Mike Charlie 5114, was lo-
cated at the extreme west end
of Ellinor Street in the Hillcrest
area. Key personnel were Ger-
ald Samples, supervisor; Mrs.
Samples, assistant supervisor;
David Turner, chief observer;
and Mrs. Greva Toby and Mrs.
Thelma Linn, assistant chiefs.
Volunteers included Irene Jack-
son and Beulah Helser and high-
school students.
The summer swim program,
the biggest ever, ended with a
splash at Lake Isabella's Delight
Park. Arthur Hazelquist, owner
of the swimming site, reported
that a total of 7,762 "child days"
was the record for 1957. Instruc-
tors for the swim program were
Sally Cowan, Virginia Wyatt,
Carol Somers, Carlita Durand
and Gordon Grant.
Joanne Stevens, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. John Stevens of
Grapeview, was named 1957 Ma-
son County Fair Queen. She was
a junior at Shelton High School
and a member of the Grapeview
4-H Club. Helping rule the ts-
tivities were princesses Nellie
Lou Bunnell and Diana Whit-
marsh. The 1957 Mason County
Fair was held in Shelton Valley.
The old Forbes School, lo-
cated on the McCleary cutoff
road, was razed. The one-room
school, built in the 1890s, once
held the future for the children
of Kamilche. With eight grades,
the school varied from six to 28
students in attendance before
consolidation with the Callow
and Oyster Bay districts. In the
early days, classes were held six
months out of the year with lack
of funding the reason for the
short year.
The pink salmon or "hump-
ies" had arrived at the salmon
hatchery at Hoodsport. The run
was expected to last for two to
three weeks. "Close to a million
eggs will be released as finger-
lings sometime in the spring,"
the story said.
William Maesner of Route
1, Shelton, received his second
Gold Star Herd Award by the
American Jersey Cattle Club for
another year on Official Herd
Improvement Registry testing.
The recognition is for unusually
high production over a four-year
period. Maesner had 16 regis-
tered Jersey cows.
A crash near Lilliwaup
claimed two Shelton youths.
Killed instantly in Mason Coun-
ty's worst traffic tragedy of the
year were William G. Pauley
and Winfield D. (Tiger) Miller.
A third youth, Ronald E. Goos,
was in critical condition in Shel-
ton General Hospital.

purchased two new Gillig school
buses, expanding its fleet to 15
