great prizes. This year more
than 300 derby tickets sold.
There were 79 fish weighed in,
which is a huge jump over the
22 weighed in during last year's
derby.
There is a steering committee
in our area looking at the feasi-
bility of a Boys and Girls Club.
We have two local experts who
have extensive experience with
the organization. Mike Bigley
was raised in Seattle and has
resided in Stetson Cove for over
42 years. Bill Braddock has
maintained his home at Ayock
Beach for the past 18 years.
Both are familiar with the need
to establish a program for our
youth here on Hood Canal. Mr.
Bigley will contact the vice
president of the Pacific region
of the organization and request
support and guidance for the
community onhow to proceed.
THE LEATHER OPTION
These days, leather upholstery is no longer considered to be
a luxury option.Thirty percent of the cars now sold in North
America have leather interiors, which is up from only 10% two
decades ago. Interestingly, in the first automobiles, leather came
standard.There was no cloth Upholstery, which was considered
to be the luxury material.Then, in the early 1920s, as automo-
biles at moderate prices became closed to the elements, mohair
upholstery, which mimicked sofa upholstery, began to be offered.
In limousines that were produced between the 1920s and 1970s,
durable leather seats were largely reserved for the chauffeur com-
partment. Cars such as Rolls-Royce retained leather throughout,
and the material began to be associated with luxury.
I I II
Whether you own a luxury car with leather interior, or an
economy car that just serves your transportation needs, we know
that it is one of your most important possessions.That's why you
should have it regularly serviced by the experts atTRANSMISSIONS
PLUS AUTOMOTIVE SERVICES.We inspect every system: brakes,
electrical, A/C, transmission_everything! We'll keep it running in
tip-top shape so you will always be able to get where you need to
go. Call 360-426-9637, or visit the shop at 31 E. Vance Ct. "We like
our job...you will too!"
HINT: In the 1980s, the comeback
of leather upholstery can be
attributed to new manufacturing
methods that reduced its cost.
