University Professor Tells Audience
Social Changes Here Apparent
Professor Angelo Pelligrini told
a chamber of commerce audience
last week in the Shelton hotel that
the last 45 years have seen a
great change here both from an
industrial and social viewpoint.
PELLIGRINI, a professor of
English literature at the Univer-
dty of Washington, was the fea-
tured speaker at a chamber of
-:ommerce dinner given to honor
',,he Washington Wine and Grape
;rowers and Mason county's two
wineries, the St. Charles and Wer-
berger'a
A native of southern Italy, Pel-
:igrini told the crowd of life as he
knew it there compared with the
Pacific northwest. He came to
McCleary as a 10-year-old boy and
added at that time it was difficult
or a foreigner to be accepted by
native Americans. Pelligrini stat-
ed that he had to fight his way
otlt of many difficulties and suf-
fetrl frn the crucial ,ltuation ex-
by the Chamber at which Professor 'Pelligrini
was the featured =pesker. He Is employed as a
consultant fo the Washington Wine and Grape
Growers Council and is also the author of eev-
eral popular books. Profeslmr Pelligrini, who
was born in Italy, oame to MoCleary when he
was 10 years old. (Journal photo, Ziegler print.)

THE UNIVERSITY professor,
who has had three hooks publish-
ed, told his listeners that many of
the remarks made by Europeans
which are critical of Americans,
although containing some truth,
are in most cases highly exagger,
ated. Pelligrini compared the cul-
tural traditions of Europe with
the United States saying that
America is a much younger coun-

bert protested vigorously the re-
cent rowdy conduct of drag rac-

dent Dick Souliere was about to
introduce the guest speaker at the
chamber's monthly night meeting
in the Shelton hotel, Faubert ask-
ed for the floor.
"Anytime a group can come in-
to town and take it over it isn't
funny. This hotel will never llave
anything to do'with them tf they
ever hold a race here again," said
Faubert.
FAUBERT SAIl) that Joe Duf-
fey, who acts as a representative
between the Civil Air Patrol and
the Tacoma Timing Association,

lowed to race here again. The ho-

Moore said that Joe Duffy had
nothing to say about the arrange-
meats at. the airport race track.

THE COUNTY alh)tted $5000 in
the 1959 budget for the compre-
hensive plan and ho|e to be able
to spend another $2000 in 1960
for additional work.
Commissioner Roy Mitchell is
in favor of going ahead with the
comprehensive plan and said,
"recreation will be the big buM-
nesa here within 100 years," Mar-
garet Fritch of Harlan Nelson
felt that recreation would be the
main business here in a much
shorter time than that.
Dick Souliere, Chamber presi-
dent, was at the meeting and ex-
pressed interest in the tentative
plans of the group for the new
Olympia-Shelt(m highway. Pres-
ent plans submitted by Harlan
Nelsm call for the highway to
by.pass the city proper and come
in on the west end of town. Mar-
garet Fritsch said when an inter-
change from a freeway comes into
the downtown area it usually
causes traffic problems. It was
the opinion of the planning firm
that it would be better for the city
to have the lnterchage by-pass
the business district.
TH.E PLANNING company has
divided the county into 13 zones
and will give the county a detailed
map of each zone aLong with the
master map. The engineer's of-
rice has equipment to reproduce
these smaller maps at a small cost
for the benefit of the public.
THE ULTIMATE objective of
professionarl planning is to devel-
ope the maximum economic po-
tential of an area by providing a
plan for growth rather than al-
lowing an area to grow without
regnlations in a way which might
hurt its econonllc futnre.
County Sanitaria ns Gerhart
Ness and Harold Amundsen re-
ported to the commission that
many commercial firms in the
county have not paid their f'.s
for garbage dumping in the coun-
ty dumps. The locations mentioned
by the sanitarials included Bel-
fair, Union and thmdsport. The
corrmisslo told Ne and Amund-
sen hat the garbage problem Was
their responsibility and they
should see to it that commercial
firms pay for the right to use the
county garbage dumps. In the
past, the commission was respon-
sible for the garbage dumps but
turned them over to the health de-
partment since they felt the gar-
bage situation was a health prob-
lem.
BUILDING PERMITS approved
bv the county this w,ek were as
follows: Orin S. Brumhaugh,
Shelton, $6000, W. C. Buckley,
Shclton, $1000, R. J. Conca, Shel-
ton, $200, and Kenneth Zlllyette,
Shelton, $600.
The commission also O.K.'ed a
$50 budget for petty cash in the
county clerk' office.
Engineer Frank Porter told the
commission his office wants per-
mission to buy two new snow-
plows soon in order to be ready
for the snows this winter. They
will cost about $1000 each.

University Professor Tells Audience
Social Changes Here Apparent
Professor Angelo Pelligrini told
a chamber of commerce audience
last week in the Shelton hotel that
the last 45 years have seen a
great change here both from an
industrial and social viewpoint.
PELLIGRINI, a professor of
English literature at the Univer-
dty of Washington, was the fea-
tured speaker at a chamber of
-:ommerce dinner given to honor
',,he Washington Wine and Grape
;rowers and Mason county's two
wineries, the St. Charles and Wer-
berger'a
A native of southern Italy, Pel-
:igrini told the crowd of life as he
knew it there compared with the
Pacific northwest. He came to
McCleary as a 10-year-old boy and
added at that time it was difficult
or a foreigner to be accepted by
native Americans. Pelligrini stat-
ed that he had to fight his way
otlt of many difficulties and suf-
fetrl frn the crucial ,ltuation ex-
by the Chamber at which Professor 'Pelligrini
was the featured =pesker. He Is employed as a
consultant fo the Washington Wine and Grape
Growers Council and is also the author of eev-
eral popular books. Profeslmr Pelligrini, who
was born in Italy, oame to MoCleary when he
was 10 years old. (Journal photo, Ziegler print.)

THE UNIVERSITY professor,
who has had three hooks publish-
ed, told his listeners that many of
the remarks made by Europeans
which are critical of Americans,
although containing some truth,
are in most cases highly exagger,

tural traditions of Europe with
the United States saying that

chamber's monthly night meeting
in the Shelton hotel, Faubert ask-
ed for the floor.
"Anytime a group can come in-
to town and take it over it isn't
funny. This hotel will never llave
anything to do'with them tf they

fey, who acts as a representative

Moore said that Joe Duffy had
nothing to say about the arrange-
meats at. the airport race track.

Commissioner Roy Mitchell is
in favor of going ahead with the
comprehensive plan and said,
"recreation will be the big buM-
nesa here within 100 years," Mar-
garet Fritch of Harlan Nelson
felt that recreation would be the
main business here in a much
shorter time than that.
Dick Souliere, Chamber presi-
dent, was at the meeting and ex-
pressed interest in the tentative
plans of the group for the new
Olympia-Shelt(m highway. Pres-
ent plans submitted by Harlan
Nelsm call for the highway to
by.pass the city proper and come
in on the west end of town. Mar-
garet Fritsch said when an inter-
change from a freeway comes into
the downtown area it usually
causes traffic problems. It was
the opinion of the planning firm
that it would be better for the city
to have the lnterchage by-pass
the business district.
TH.E PLANNING company has
divided the county into 13 zones
and will give the county a detailed
map of each zone aLong with the
master map. The engineer's of-
rice has equipment to reproduce
these smaller maps at a small cost
for the benefit of the public.
THE ULTIMATE objective of
professionarl planning is to devel-
ope the maximum economic po-
tential of an area by providing a
plan for growth rather than al-
lowing an area to grow without
regnlations in a way which might
hurt its econonllc futnre.
County Sanitaria ns Gerhart
Ness and Harold Amundsen re-
ported to the commission that
many commercial firms in the
county have not paid their f'.s
for garbage dumping in the coun-
ty dumps. The locations mentioned
by the sanitarials included Bel-
fair, Union and thmdsport. The
corrmisslo told Ne and Amund-
sen hat the garbage problem Was
their responsibility and they
should see to it that commercial
firms pay for the right to use the
county garbage dumps. In the
past, the commission was respon-
sible for the garbage dumps but
turned them over to the health de-
partment since they felt the gar-
bage situation was a health prob-
lem.
BUILDING PERMITS approved
bv the county this w,ek were as
follows: Orin S. Brumhaugh,
Shelton, $6000, W. C. Buckley,
Shclton, $1000, R. J. Conca, Shel-
ton, $200, and Kenneth Zlllyette,
Shelton, $600.
The commission also O.K.'ed a
$50 budget for petty cash in the
county clerk' office.
Engineer Frank Porter told the
commission his office wants per-
mission to buy two new snow-
plows soon in order to be ready
for the snows this winter. They
will cost about $1000 each.
