a leg injury, staying in the Tim-
bers Motel, Shelton. VChat a fix!
Nothin like being snowed out of
your own home instead of in
and at Christmas yet!
' Near z.ero temperatures and
snow caused hardships onHat''-
stine the past week. Pipes froze
and burst in several homes. Fa-
rallies who did not have chains
for their cars were stuck at home.
Luckily the power and phones
were in service. High north winds
keep the wires clear. If it had
not been for Larry Jerrells and
Bud Glaser, and many others who
were so lmlpful to everyone dur-
ing tlze bad weather, several peo-
l,e would have suffered more
than they did. The Ernie Bycrs
had no water at their house for
~ome time and Bud Glaser visited
them daily, bringing a milk can
full of water. Mrs. Josephine Nit-
~chek Mary Byers' twin sister
i'rom Seattle plans to spend
Christmas with the Byers. Let's
hope the weather clears so every-
one's plans materialize.
One day during the first of the
snow, our mail man got stuck
in the snow. Grandpa Glaser pull-
ed him out and the mail came
through on time.
.... ONLY THREE of the seven
pupils who a~end Harstine school
are in attendance, four are ill
with flu or nmmps. However, the
school Christmas program was
t~eld as usual Tuesday evening in
the school house.

Editor's Note: because of the

Coullty residents who have Ira-

Thnptmi, superintendent of the
Washhigton Corrections Center,

By LYLE BURT
One area of state government
where Governor-elect Dan Evans
is unlikely to make many major
changes is the Department of In-
stitutions.
Aside from appointing a new
director to replace Garrett Heyns
who, at 73, plans to retire, there
have been no indications that Ev-
ans plans any shake-ul)s in the
agency..
The main reason is that the de-
partment, under Heyns, has been
one of the bestq~n of all state ag-
encies.
INSTITUTIONS,, because it op-
erates the penitentiary and other
correctional institutions as well as
mental hospitals, has always been
a potential trouble spot for the
administration in power.
During the administration of
former Gov. Az~hur B. Langlie,
institutions was a real problem,
with riots at both the reformatory
at Monroe and the penitentiary
added to the normal irritations
such as escapes from the juv-
enile correctional sclmols.
Because of its history of being
a political embarrassment, Gov.
Rosellini gave special attention to
the Institutions Department after
he took office in 1957.
TItERE IS little doubt that
Heyns was one of Rosellini's best
appointments. And, in turn, Heyns
named competent men to head the
reformatory, penitentiary and oth-
er sensitive areas.
After initial upsets at Ihe two
major institutions (which gave
the appearance of being inmate
efforts to see how far they could
go) things settled down. The fir'~t
real trouble since then came a few
weeks ago when scwm inmates
tunneled out of the penitentia.ry.
Judged by past performance,
Heyns' operation of the agency
can be classified as one of the
nmjor accomplishments of the
Rosellini administration
And Evans is sufficiently astute
to let a good thing alone,.
TIIERE ARE indications Evans
Hugo Glasers and Vincent Glas-
ers all visited their respective rel-
atives on Tlmnksgiving, they plan
Christmas celebz-ations in their
Harstine homes.
Mr. and Mrs. Larry Jerrells will
go to Seattle and spend the
Christmas Holiday with relatives.
Happiness reigns in the Paul
Chaffce home at Point Wilson. In
spite of the snow, their daugi~ter
and family of Sparks, Nev. arrived
at the Chaffec home Friday. They
will be there until after Christ-
mas. The .visitors are Dr. amt
Mrs. Don Marble, and children,
Dawn, Bill and Jere.
Mi. Olive Lutheran
Church Plans
Christmas Services
Mt. Olive Lutheran church will
observe Christmas with two spec-
ial services this year.
Tl~e traditional Children's
Christmas Eve service will be held
Thursday evening at 7 p.m. The
service will feature recitations by
the children of the Mr. Olive Sun-
day School and the singing of
many of the traditional Christmas
songs by the congregation and the
children.
Christntas morning there will
also be a Festival Service at 10
, a.m. The Children's Choir and the
Senior Choir will both sing spec-
ial Christmas music. The sermon,
"God With Us;' will be delivered
by Rev. Gerald Herman, pastor
of Mr. Olive.
The public is cordially invited
to worship at Mr. Olive Lutheran
Church, Olympic Highway South
and Cascade, this holiday season
and to join in giving thanks to
God for the gift of His Son, our
Savior.
may appoint Ernest C. Timpani
to succeed Heyns.
Timpani. 43, st)wed as superin-
tendent of the reformatory from
1958 to 1963. made a good record,
then was transferred to the de-
partment's nmin office in Olym-
pia. After about a year he was
named by tleyns to head the new
Washington corrections center at
Shelton.
When he went to Olympia, it
was widely believed that Timpani
was being groomed to take over
the department. In fact, Heyns
privately praised Timpani and
said he was, in effect, the "heir
apparent."
SINCE TIlE general election
last month, Evans has received
numerous recommendations that
he elevate Timpani to director.
There are indications the gover-
nor-elect may follow those recom-
mendations.
One area related to institutions
in which Evans may move con-
cerns the professional staff of the
State Board of Prison Terms and
Paroles.
Evans has shown considerable
interest in recommendations of
the National Council on Crime
and Delinquency that the Parole
Board staff be transferred into
the Institutions Department.
This would leave the five-mem-
ber board as an independent ag-
ency to set minimum terms of
criminals, and leave to the Insti-
tutions Department the oversee-
ing of those persons once they
are paroled.
A proposal to accomplish this
change was introduced and passed
in the 1961 Legislature but was
vetoed by Rose]lint.
Evans voted for the 1961 bill
and may initiate another similar
attempt.
