Board Resolution To Dismiss Hopper (Continued from page 1) commission deoaes that my services are no longer needed or wanted. I didn't feel that it was a legal matter, or that I needed an attorney to resign or be fired. The commission refused to meet with me unless their attorney was present, tip until that time 1 assumed that the commissioners were capable of and free to speak for themselves, and of taking action of their own. Up until now the commission has not presented me with a request that I resign.. . To my way of thinking to resign would be an admission of guilt of whatever it is I'm judged guilty of by the commission and their attorney. "Etowever, at this time it is quite obvious that my relations with the commission do indeed render my situation 'untenable,' and ! would at this time consider the customary 90 day notice of resignation. "When my attorney questioned me as to the alleged assault it, became apparenl that: my interpretation of the incident was based upon ttle apparent results of the incident, rather than on any clear cut recollection of the events that actually took place. ''i was violently alld unexpectedly attacked by an incoherent, irrational, wild woman who wax intent on heatint" m y b rains out. I had no opportunity to flee or to back away as the area is hemmed in by furniture and equipment and she had hold of my shirt. I can't see how a man can be expected to exercise any degree of prudent judgment at a time like that, or to carefully weigh the ultimate consequences of any actkm he might take to prevent himself from being killed or maimed...I received numerous bumps and lumps, scratches and bruises m the action as well as having my shirt and T shirt ripped to shreds. "File injuries were nothing ot any consequence but perhaps I shonld have gone to tile enlergeucy room and then called Dick Angle. Harstine , Bridge Accepted L  The Mason County Commis- sion this week accrpled as conr pleted the llarstinc Island Bridge. The acceptance was on the recommendation of County Engineer J. C. Bridger. Bridget stated that any claims in connection with the constructitm work must reach his office no later than Sept. 25 to be considered. "As for my being there in the first place on a Sunday evening, this is not at. all unusual, as ! have worked malay week ends and evenings. Several hospital personnel had been getting these obscene, anonymous phone calls the past few days and it looked like we were getting to the bottom of it. I had been told by another employee that they would wait for me in the store room, as they had more information on the phone calls....When 1 got there Lois Sollars was there by herself, much to my surprise. Mrs. Sollars had gone to two of the commissioners regarding stock room records, once on Salurday, Aug. 2, and again Sunday evening, after the incident. Neither of the ct)mmissioners apparently knew enough about the operation of tile hospital regarding these records to know that these records were quite incomplete, and of no particular or significant value to the hospital or anyone else, until they met with lhe Auditor the next morning." tlopper c()mntented this week on his work in connection with the establishment of the new Mason General Ilospital. lie said: "Running the old hospital was a full tinle joh. Since mid-sumnter 1964, I also did virtually all the pick and shovel work of forming the district conducting three political campaigns, programing, planning, equipping and setting up the new hospital. An outside consultant would have cost somewhere between $50,000 and $100,000 to do what I did. I did not receive one dinte over my regular salary for performing these services -. even lho' the attorney at one point suggested that some urrangement be made tt) do SO," Michael Zarana Is Promoted Michael W.

One block, which was originally included in tile project, was withdrawn after a petition was received from a majority of tile property owners asking the street be taken out. J. Paul Everett appeared at the conmission meeting to ask what had been done with tile petition from those opposing the improvement on the one block, Seventh St. between Wyandotte and l:.u clid. Everett was one of nine property owners who had signed a protest against the proposed slreet improvement after a public hearing Aug. 18.
