Fundraiser seeks to establish a scholarship for veterans and their dependents

By WILL LOHRE Country Media

Before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, a veteran’s group at Southwestern Oregon Community College (SWOCC) was raising money for the SWOCC Fellowship to start a veteran’s scholarship. They raised about $5,000 of the necessary $10,000 to create a permanent 500$ yearly award, but this has stagnated through COVID. To get momentum going for the scholarship, Ryan Devore has kicked off a GoFundMe to get back on the right track.

“They raised about $5,000 dollars for it, but you need to get $10,000, and then it will basically put that forward for a $500 scholarship forever,” Devore said. “So I was sitting there trying to figure out how to restart the thing, and I was looking into GoFundMe, and so that way if we get the other $5,000, then this year, or the next year, we can give some veteran, or some veteran’s kid a scholarship.”

According to Devore, for every $10,000 they can get for the Southwestern Oregon Community College Foundation, Inc. (SWOCC Foundation), they can do a $500 scholarship for an individual. This works because the interest on the money in the foundation would accrue to make it self-sustaining. The scholarship would be available not only to veterans but also to their families.

“We don’t currently have, for SWOCC, a veteran’s scholarship, and so it’s just wanting to get it out,” Devore said. “Currently, you have the post-911 GI Bill, and those veterans go to school, and we also get a lot the dependents, either the spouse or the kids of disabled veterans, come to school here and get stuff, but you know, everybody needs a little help and a little bit of money to make ends meet.”

A winter wonderland on the Oregon Coast

Mother Nature brought a surprise to the Oregon Coast last week as a once-in-a-decade storm dropped inches of snow over all of Coos County, with three to four inches of snow recorded all the way to Oregon’s beaches. The snow and extreme low temperatures led to hazardous road conditions, which forced all local schools to close Thursday and Friday. The winter weather also caused havoc on local businesses with many closing and others opening late. Trash pickup in Coos Bay was delayed Thursday, and even the post office was unable to deliver mail due to road conditions. By Friday afternoon, much of the snow had melted, with only snowmen built by area children holding on as a reminder of the rare storm.

Liberty Theatre moves closer to historic designation

By WILL LOHRE Country Media

The State Advisory Committee on Historic Preservation (SACHP) traveled to North Bend Friday, Feb. 17, to tour the Liberty Theatre to see if it met the criteria for recognition in the National Register of historic buildings.

Committee members Stephen Dow Beckham (Chair), Mark Tveskov, Julie Osborne, Gwendolyn Trice, Stephen Mark, Heidi Slaybaugh, John Arroyo, and Jacqueline Cheung sat in consideration of the nomination. Robert Olguin, National Register Program Coordinator, was also present. The discussion took place on the stage at the Liberty Theatre. The four criteria by which

buildings are evaluated are:

Criterion A: Association with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history.

Criterion B: Association with the lives of persons significant in our past.

Criterion C: Embodiment of the distinctive characteristic of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction.

Criterion D: Properties that have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history.

After the North Bend City Council approved the Liberty Theatre for consideration for the National Register of Historic Places, the SACHP visited the location. After they toured the area, the committee members discussed if the nomination would be approved. The Liberty Theatre was evaluated on several of the criteria.

In consideration of Criteria A, the nomination asserts that the Liberty Theatre played a role in developing entertainment and recreation in North Bend. Its period of significance spanned from 1924 to 1959. From its opening in 1924 to 1955, it showed motion pictures and has housed the Little Theatre on the Bay since 1959. Little Theatre on the Bay is a community-

based nonprofit that offers live performances.

The nomination also makes a case for preservation under Criteria C for its distinctive Moorish architecture. A Portland office, Tourtellotte & Hummel, designed the theater.

The committee noted that there had been alterations to the building that included non-historic internal and external changes. However, beginning in 2015, the theater has worked on a multiphase restoration project to reinstate some of the original essence of the building.

George Kramer, who nominated the Liberty Theatre, spoke to the committee about the merits of the nomination and the processes of the multiphase renovation project.

“It has been, I believe, for both Little Theatre on the Bay and for the City of North Bend, the community of North Bend, an incredibly successful series of events,” Kramer said. “They are great clients, and they have really taken the history of this theater to heart.”

According to Kramer, it is the oldest standing theater in the South Coast region. It was one of the only places for entertainment in an isolated area at the time of its founding.

After back and forth between Kramer and the committee, a motion to approve the nomination to the National Register, with amendments to include more of the history of minority representation in the area, was adopted unanimously.

Coos Bay Fire Department completes focused fire safety campaign

In the wake the of a fire that occurred in the Shorepines Bay Village Mobile Home Park, the Coos Bay Fire Department was given the opportunity to perform a focused fire safety campaign to the residents of the longtime neighborhood.

The fire safety campaign consisted of a community meeting and a follow up home fire safety survey. The community meeting, which was held at the fire station was attended by over 65 residents and focused on home fire safety and allowed the residents to ask questions regarding the many aspects of being fire safe. Some main topics of discussion surrounded the use of extension cords and the installation and maintenance of smoke alarms.

After the meeting, many residents requested follow up surveys by the fire depart-

ment. Over the next week, approximately 20 contacts were made with the residents and over 40 smoke alarms were installed in the neighborhood.

The Coos Bay Fire Department was able to provide these smoke alarms through a community partnership with the American Red Cross that provides free smoke alarms through their Home Fire Campaign. The American Red Cross Home Fire Campaign was launched in 2014 and has installed 2.4 million smoke alarms in homes across the country.

As part of the fire safety survey, firefighters were able to test and inspect existing smoke alarms in the homes. If the alarm was older than 10 years or not functioning a new alarm was installed.

The new smoke alarms were installed in every bedroom, living area, and hallway of

the mobile homes visited.

In a multi-story home, it is also recommended to place an alarm on every level, near stairways to upper levels, and in basements. In addition to smoke alarm installations, firefighters had the opportunity to survey the home and give recommendations and answer questions regarding residents’ concerns.

The city of Coos Bay and the Coos Bay Fire Department are committed to keeping the community safe. Please check our website and watch for announcements for future opportunities on fire safety and disaster preparedness. If you have questions or would like to request a free fire safety survey, please call the Coos Bay Fire Department at 541-2691191or click the link on the fire department’s webpage at coosbayor.gov (under the Government tab).

STAFF REPORT

Country Media, Inc.

The Port of Brookings Harbor will receive $1.8M from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for disaster recovery efforts through its Public Assistance Program.

Oregon’s U.S. Senators Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden announced that the Port of Brookings Harbor and the Oregon Department of Forestry will share in a total of $5,417,255 FEMA funding.

“Oregon’s devastating winter storms and wildfire season take a heavy toll on many communities across the state, and we need to continue to do everything we can help them recover and rebuild,” Merkley said.

“I’m glad this federal funding is headed to the Port of Brookings Harbor and the Oregon Department of Forestry to help ease the expensive burden communities have taken on to recover and move forward following severe weather events. I will keep working

to ensure Oregon communities have the tools they need to recover and become more resilient in the face of future wildfires and winter storms while we take on the climate chaos that is intensifying these disasters.”

“The destructive punches from winter weather and wildfires in Oregon sometimes slam our state to the point that federal help is needed to assist with the rebound in communities large and small,” Wyden said. “I’m gratified the Port of Brookings Harbor and the state Department of Forestry have secured these much-needed federal funds, and I’ll keep battling to deliver similar resources for communities recovering from similar disasters across our state.”

The award amounts and information:

Port of Brookings Harbor

$1,835,304 for debris removal operations following severe winter storms and flooding, which caused excessive sediment to be deposited into the Port of Brookings Harbor. Oregon Department of Forestry $3,581,951 for management costs resulting from wildfires and straight-line winds.

Robert “Bob” Donald Shore

October 8, 1940 – December 6, 2022

After living a full life, Robert “Bob” Donald Shore passed away peacefully at home on December 6, 2022. His wife, Sally held his hand and whispered a prayer for him. He was born in Coquille, Oregon on October 8, 1940 to Donald and Margaret (Wallace) Shore, and was raised on the Wallace Ranch that his grandparents owned on Ross Inlet Road, east of Coos Bay. He attended Sumner Elementary School, Marshfield Jr. High School and graduated from Marshfield Senior High School in 1958.

Upon attending Oregon State University for one year in 1959, Bob enlisted in the United States Marine Corp. where he served four years in active duty and was honorably discharged as a Corporal. He spent another two years in the reserves.

When Bob returned to the Bay Area, he was employed by a local bank and later at the Cabinet Spot, owned by his brother, Terry and sisterin-law, Cheryl Shore.

In the late 1960s Bob earned his private and instrument pilot licenses and was employed by Coos Aviation and part time at Roseburg Regional Airport to fly commercially for them.

One was that while transporting some passengers from Portland back to North Bend, the

David Francis Brunsman

David Francis Brunsman peacefully left our world on January 22, 2023. He will be greatly missed by his family and many friends. David was born in San Francisco, but grew up in Vernonia, Oregon.

David was always adventurous and committed to his community. He served on the planning commission

for Coos County and later in Myrtle Point; coached his son’s young team of basketball players, rode a mountain bike, played a guitar and wooden spoons with friends’ bands; collected beer t-shirts from breweries, and amassed a huge collection of model cars. He loved traveling with his family, especially camping and rafting on the Illinois River.

airplane was “shot down” in a field alongside the freeway near Albany. He made an emergency landing, and upon examination, a bullet was found in the fuselage.

In the early 1970s, Bob was hired by Stalcup Trucking and Equipment Company where he worked in management and sales. He was also their company pilot. This is where he met Sally, who was employed there as well. After a time, they became “more than just acquaintances”. It was, also during this time, and since Bob still wanted to fly airplanes, that he purchased a Cessna for personal use. Sometimes he and Sally would “fly out for dinner” in a different town. He, later traded the Cessna in for a Super Cub, just for FUN!

He claimed that he could fly it under the North Bend McCullough Bridge! Sally was not fond of being a passenger in the backseat of this noisy little “trick” airplane!

Bob’s real ambition, though, was to begin his own timber operation. So, starting small, and quickly growing, he soon was able to purchase more supplies and equipment, then hire extra workers, including his stepsons, Darren and Brian Todd, who worked during weekends and school breaks. He named his new business, West Fork Timber Company. A logging and road building operation.

After a long courtship, Bob and Sally were married in 1983, and moved into their new house that they

built in a country setting surrounded by acres of trees and small hills. It is where they have lived for 40 years.

When Bob retired West Fork Timber Co., he remained in the timber industry, and worked as a timber and log buyer for several mills and timber operations and throughout Oregon. He retired from working outside of home in the middle 2000s.

Some of Bob’s interests were: flying airplanes, fishing, fly tying, hunting deer, elk and fowl. He brought a large bull elk home the day before undergoing a five-way heart bypass surgery! He, also, liked to build “things” (besides the house) that included: a boat, small boxes out of selected wood, a garage, horse barn, shop, sheds, greenhouse, chicken coop, that later was remodeled into a bunk house by him and stepgrandson, Dylan, who was raised by Bob and Sally, well house, decks, flower planters, fences, picnic tables, benches, pond, a full sized Frisbee golf course, attached garage and office, putting green made by Dylan’s father, Darren Todd, horseshoe pit and a small area known as “Bob’s Little Park’, with electricity, a water supply and a septic tank, etc. Many BBQs, hot dog and s’mores roasts were enjoyed there. According to Bob, building was “Fun Stuff!”

Bob and Sally hosted many events throughout the years that included: BBQs,

Lyle Layton Hartzell was born in Florence, Oregon on April 30, 1934, to Mildred Emma Harrington Hartzell and Lyle Layton Hartzell, Sr. on 327 Laurel Street in Florence and passed away February 12, 2023, in Florence. He attended school in the Siuslaw School District and later went on to college at Southern Oregon University and Linfield University, playing basketball and baseball. His initial desire was to be a teacher, but “The Sea” became his passion. He met his beloved wife, Arlene and returned to Florence to start a family and work on the ocean. Lyle was known to many as Ozzie or Ossie, and was a husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and a friend to countless others. He is survived by Arlene; sister, Marilyn Pogan; daughter, Gail Knabe; sons, Scott and Tristan; and his grandchildren, Cambrie, Zack, Madeleigh, Eva, Mykah, Jonathan, Caitlyn, and Emma.

Lyle was a Florence native with his ancestors being early settlers on the Siuslaw River and captaining boats along

the river. In his early days, he worked as a trapper and logger. He was on a Sause Bros. tugboat named the Klihyam, pulling a barge loaded with lumber when it ran aground on the Siuslaw River Bar on September 27, 1958. He was the last person rescued from the boat. Later, he became a successful commercial fisherman and businessman. His first commercial fishing boat was named the Gail Ann, a 32-foot wooden vessel that he fished alone on. Later, his commercial fishing boats ported out of Newport, Florence, Winchester Bay, and Coos Bay, hiring many local crews. He first partnered with his dad, Lyle, and later his son, Scott, and was one of the first commercial fishermen on the West Coast to harvest Dungeness crab. His fisheries over the years also included salmon, black cod, albacore, and shrimp. For business ventures he started with The Crab Stand on Highway 101 (now the Crab Kettle), and later went on to own restaurants in the Bay Area and establish 3 different seafood processing

plants in Oregon. He was known for his generosity, having established the Brittany Hartzell scholarship foundation, and giving to countless other charities, foundations, and churches as well as family and friends. Rarely was anyone turned down in a time of need. His humor was subtle with impeccable timing and indelible one liners. He gave everything to his employees, friends, and family. To know Ozzie was to love Ozzie. It is so hard for us to believe this mountain of a man is gone. He was so strong, enduring, and there for all of us. He was truly the most generous and thoughtful man we have ever known. Lyle was preceded in death by his treasured daughter, Brittany; sisters, Betty Lou Buss and Ardith Bernhardt; and parents. His service will be at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Florence on February 24, 2023 at 11 am. Donations in his memory can be given to the Brittany Hartzell scholarship fund managed by the Western Lane County Foundation.

and a Birthday Party for Jesus that was celebrated at the annual Christmas Eve Dinner and Gift Exchange for families. They also hosted two large Family Reunions.

Pets were a big part of Bob and Sally’s lives. They had 14 dogs, five cats, a horse and two sheep that their last dog, Border collie, Pearl, would herd freely all over the property.

When Bob could no longer maneuver very well outside without his walker, he could often be seen riding his lawnmower with a trailer attached that was filled with outdoor tools. This still enabled him to cut limbs, mow the acres of grass and work on other outside projects.

Some organizations

Bob belonged to were: Coalition of Commercial Airline Pilots Association, National Association of Flight Instructors, an OSU Fraternal Order, Elks, N.R.A, Association of Oregon Loggers, Inc., and N.R.P.

Bob leaves behind his wife, Sally; daughter, Kirstina Shore of Coos Bay, who he was very proud of for, upon graduating from college, served in the United States Navy and retired with the rank of Lieutenant Commander; his half-brothers and sister, Kirt Shore of Chicago, Illinois, Mark Shore of Concord, California and Donald Logan of Walnut Creek, California; stepbrother, Rocky Place of Coos Bay; step-sister, Peggy

Robinson of Coos Bay; step-grandchildren, Dylan “Cub” Todd of Canby, Oregon, Shane Todd of Eugene, Oregon, Nichole Todd of Eugene, Oregon, Matt Colton of Springfield, Oregon, and Maria Taylor of Early, Texas; eight great step-grandchildren; sister-inlaw, Cheryl Shore; nephew, Darin Shore; great-nephew, Tyler Shore, all of Maui, Hawaii; many step-nieces and nephews; some special people, Gary and Sarah (Dylan’s mom) Austin of Eugene, Oregon and best friend, Lee Webster of Coos

Bay, Oregon.

Preceding Bob in death were his parents; brother, Terry Shore; nephew, Corey Shore; and stepsons, Darren Todd and Brian Todd.

Donations in Bob’s memory would be appreciated to: the Coos County Humane Society or Doernbecher and Shriners Children’s Hospitals in Portland, Oregon; the American Tree Planting Assn.; or to other charities.

Thank you Coos Bay and North Bend

I am writing this letter to say “thank you” to the communities of North Bend and Coos Bay. The reason for writing this note as a letter to the editor has one simple reason: I have too many individuals to thank, and this was the only means to reach everybody. You see, a few weeks ago I was a stranger coming to town basically on an emergency errand: I had just about three weeks to clean my mom’s three-bedroom house and prepare it to become a rental, while at the same time, find a place for my mom to move to where she could find the kind of support she now needed. Anyone who has moved a parent or parents knows what this kind of project entails, and that it is a life-changing experience. When I first arrived in Coos Bay, I couldn’t even think about if this job was possible or not; it was necessary and there was no choice but success. But the odds of my accomplishing this task did not seem good, but I had to carry on each day. But that’s where the good citizens of North Bend and Coos Bay came into the picture. You see, each step I had to take involved locals. Everybody I met and worked with became part of my support team, and only together, was it possible to achieve success with this important task.

And thanks to your amazing community, all the goals were met by the deadline; my mom is moved, and even now, the community is still there for her.

So, I just have to say thanks, Coos Bay and North Bend! Thanks for helping a stranger take care of his mom. Thanks for showing that there is a place where people will band together to help. Thanks for being nice, supportive, and caring. Without you, I could not have succeeded. I will forever be grateful. Take pride! You are an amazing community.

Open Request to John Briggs and James Rose

Given that the airport reported no impact would be felt by North Bend ending its inter-governmental agreement with the airport, I’m wondering how you’ve changed your views on this, since you were vocal about big consequences for this action.

It would be great for the public, including myself, to be updated.

Here’s where Mr. Briggs stated his belief that the TSA would pull out 9-7-22 during a pitch for seeking the mayoral position:

Too many freeloaders

Look at the mess those free loaders leave when there kicked out of a camp. Over and over the volunteers go in and clean up drug leftovers ,human waste and trash scattered everywhere.

Those people making this reoccurring mess are nothing but free loaders . OK, your homeless and I wonder why? Somebody owes you something. Getting a job just isn’t for you? Can’t do drugs and work too? Gee maybe you need to get your act together and live like millions of people do living paycheck to paycheck.

Oregon has encouraged these people freeload far too long. A now Kotec want to pump millions more and build them houses so they can trash them, too.

Something disturbing was happening inside Occupied France in 1944. The Germans were rounding up France’s entire supply of thorium. And that had the Allies’ big brass scared down to their socks. While America was working on the atomic bomb, it was equally concerned the Nazis might be doing likewise. The fact that they were so suddenly and keenly obsessed with the radioactive element was troubling. Had Hitler devised a way to use thorium to refine the uranium needed to produce a Big Shiny One? Nightmares of London and New York disappearing beneath mushroom clouds danced in the Allies’ heads.

So, they set out to discover just what was going on. And the answer they got turned out to be hilarious.

But first, we must go back a bit to what historians call the Age of Radioactive Quackery. (Yes, that really is a thing.)

Radiation was all the rage in the late 19th century. X-rays were discovered in 1896 and radioactive decay came the next year. It seemed a door was suddenly flung open to a new world of scientific possibilities.

Unfortunately, a wave of hightech charlatanism came with it. It wasn’t so much outright fraud as it was naivety assisted by scruples-challenged entrepreneurs who didn’t bother to look before they leaped. An array of radioactive powders, creams and liquid concoctions hit the marketplace with few, if any, undergoing proper screening first. Consider the sad case of Pittsburgh millionaire industrialist, socialite, athlete and all-around bon vivant Ebenezer “Eben” Byers. After he injured his arm falling out of a railroad car sleeping berth in his late 40s, he heard about the mystical restorative powers of Ra-

dithor, a patent medicine pushed by a Harvard Medical School dropout.

Byers felt buoyed by the extra energy the liquid radioactivity provided. Until he started feeling tired. And his teeth began falling out. Then his hair went. Eventually, his lower jaw fell off.

It was an agonizing way to go. Some 1,400 doses of Radithor later, Byers was eventually planted in Allegheny Cemetery (inside a leadlined coffin to keep his radioactive remains from contaminating others).

Despite that and other cautionary tales, the public remained cautiously intrigued by radioactivity’s potential in daily life.

Fast forward to the summer of 1944. After successfully landing at Normandy in June, Allied forces were slogging their way through the heart of France. As they neared the capital, informants inside Paris reported their country’s entire thorium supply was being shipped to Germany. The Allies’ interest in what was going on with it was becoming an obsession.

Which was where Col. Boris Pash got involved.

A no-nonsense, take-charge guy, he led a special military team associated with the security branch of the Manhattan Project, the folks secretly working on the bomb. Pash’s men followed the Allied armies rounding up all the scientific material and information they came across.

When Paris was recaptured in August, Pash learned about a German company named AuerGessellschaft. Though it primarily made war-related equipment like gas masks, it was also involved in uranium projects. It had seized a small company that controlled all the thorium in France. And the entire supply had been whisked off to Germany ahead of the Allied arrival.

Pash learned Auer’s French

company had been run during the occupation by a German named Peterson, a real-life version of “Hogan’s Heroes” bumbling Col. Klink. His secretary, Fraulein Wessel, was the brains of the operation. Pash discovered she was in the Belgian border town of Eurpen, which the Allies had just seized. Without either authority or a minute to lose, he impulsively raced there. His audacious action paid off. Not only did he find Fraulein Wessel but he also bagged Herr Petersen who was visiting her.

They sang like canaries. Yes, they admitted, Auer had sent the thorium to Germany. But it wasn’t for a bomb. It was to make — toothpaste!

Auer’s honchos realized Germany would lose the war and were already looking for ways to make money afterward. They had been impressed by the profitability of Doramad, a popular pre-war brand that advertised itself as a radioactive toothpaste. And it did, indeed, contain trace amounts of the mildly radioactive element thorium. Doramad proudly boasted in its extensive advertising that it (supposedly) fought bacteria to protect teeth and gums. The bomb, it turned out, had never entered Auer’s thinking.

The Atomic Age arrived the next year, instantly obliterating both two cities and any remaining consumer interest in radioactive products. And Auer, it should be noted, went on to specialize in making supplies used in mining operations. Not toothpaste.

Opinion: The U.S. Hardware Kyiv Needs Most

By JOHN HARDIE InsideSources.com

Fresh off a surprise visit to Kyiv, President Biden vowed Tuesday that America “will not tire” in its support for Ukraine. To deliver on that commitment, Biden must hold together the bipartisan coalition that’s given Ukraine generous military assistance. Immediately granting Kyiv’s requests for ATACMS (Army Tactical Missile System) missiles could help Ukraine retake additional territory and show Congress that U.S. assistance is paying dividends.

Despite Russia’s battlefield failures, Putin remains determined. He has mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops and appointed a new commander tasked with taking the rest of Ukraine’s eastern Donbas region. The early stages of that offensive are underway. Kyiv is planning its own counteroffensive, widely expected to occur this spring. To help, the West has stepped up training for Ukrainian troops and pledged additional tanks, armored vehicles and materiel, while Kyiv is mobilizing more soldiers and building additional units.

The good news: Russia’s battered military, increasingly reliant on poorly trained troops, probably can’t pull off large-scale offensive operations — a fact perhaps lost on Putin, who seems impatient for success.

The bad news: That’s not the only way

Moscow could potentially salvage the war. Putin likely predicts that if Ukraine’s counteroffensive fails and the conflict grinds on with no end in sight, Western resolve will wane — and with it, the money and materiel on which Kyiv’s war effort depends.

Ukraine has solid prospects for success. Its military has proven it can achieve results when adequately resourced.

Ukraine’s previous counteroffensives in the country’s south and east capitalized on Russian manpower shortages. But Russia’s forces in Ukraine have roughly doubled, thanks to mobilization, and now have considerably less territory to defend following Russia’s retreats last year. Meanwhile, Russia has built fortified defensive lines stretching across the battlefield.

The war will likely drag on through 2023 and beyond. If so, Ukraine’s Western support will face two interrelated threats.

The first concerns the availability of military aid, particularly artillery ammunition. For all the attention on tanks and fighter jets, artillery remains central to this war. With its stocks of Soviet-made munitions largely exhausted and its defense industry decimated, Kyiv depends on Western supplies. But Western stockpiles are dwindling, and Ukrainian artillery shell consumption far outstrips Western production. All told, annual U.S. and European production would last Ukraine about three months.

Washington is working to increase output, and the EU is mulling similar measures. But production won’t increase significantly until next year, meaning the West must dig deep over the medium term. Although Moscow faces its challenges with ammunition stocks and production, Russia’s defense industrial base is running on a war footing and doesn’t face commercial and regulatory constraints that impede Western industry.

The Pentagon hopes that helping Ukraine’s military transition to a style of fighting that emphasizes maneuver rather than artillery-centric attritional warfare will reduce artillery consumption. Ukraine has conducted successful maneuvers only where Russian lines were weak. Kyiv will likely enjoy no such luxury going forward.

The second threat concerns political support. Most American lawmakers recognize that aid for Ukraine represents a cost-effective investment in U.S. security. Yet a small but vocal minority staunchly opposes further assistance. A growing number of voters, particularly conservatives, similarly question whether to continue aiding Kyiv.

Funding from the Ukraine aid bill Congress passed in December will run out as early as this summer, meaning lawmakers must agree on another one. As U.S. officials have warned Kyiv, that bill will be tougher to pass.

If Ukraine’s counteroffensive stalls,

these challenges could compound. Western policymakers may be reluctant to invest in what many will wrongly diagnose as a stalemate. In fact, the conflict will remain an intense war of attrition; Ukraine’s military will need a steady supply of aid lest Russia gradually grinds it down. Some will be tempted to push Kyiv toward peace talks, even though Putin has shown no interest in peace and would likely exploit a potential ceasefire to gather Russia’s strength for a follow-on war.

Biden can get ahead by immediately granting Kyiv’s repeated requests for ATACMS missiles. This system, whose range far exceeds Ukraine’s current Westernsupplied rocket artillery, can help blunt Moscow’s offensive and weaken Russia’s ability to resist Ukrainian advances. Also, ATACMS can help reduce Kyiv’s artillery shell consumption by facilitating maneuver while facilitating Ukrainian gains that inspire further Western support.

In Kyiv, Biden reiterated his pledge to support Ukraine “for as long as it takes.” What he does now will go a long way toward determining how long that is.

Clayburn is state wrestling champion for Myrtle Point

The World Myrtle Point’s Logan Clayburn was the lone Coos County champion at the state wrestling tournament, which became a one-day marathon Friday following the snow that hampered the Portland area.

The tournament for the Class 4A, Class 3A and Class 2A-1A boys and the Class 4A-3A-2A-1A girls was condensed into one long day when the Memorial Coliseum was closed due to the storm on Thursday when the event was supposed to start.

Clayburn, a runner-up as a sophomore last year, took the Class 2A-1A title at 220 pounds. He pinned his way through the tournament, with wins by fall over Noah Emch of Regis, Cade Cunningham of Heppner, Cody Vance of Toledo and Rhyne Nelson of Willamina in the championship match in 2:15.

Siuslaw had the best showing among the South Coast schools,

with a champion for both the boys and the girls and a number of placers.

The boys champion was Mason Buss, the winner at 195 pounds in Class 3A. He beat Bryce Chilgren of Harrisburg 9-2 in the championship match.

Dayne Muller was second at 220 pounds for Siuslaw after beating Coquille’s Tommy Vigue, a state champion last winter in the semifinals.

Muller pinned Vigue but was edged by Mishael Mauck of Banks 3-2 in the championship match.

Siuslaw also had a third-place finisher, Hunter Petterson at 132 pounds. Petterson won three straight matches after losing in the championship quarterfinals to the top seed. He pinned No. 2 seed Kaden Haugen of Santiam Christian in the third-place match.

The Vikings also had a fourthplace finisher, Joel Sissel, at 170 pounds.

Coquille had two placers. Vigue rebounded from his loss to Muller by pinning Cooper Clark of Harrisburg in the consolation semifinals and Kaison Smith of Warrenton in the third-place match.

Riley Jones also reached the semifinals, at 182 pounds, before losing. He ended up falling to Santiam Christian’s Jared Melschau 4-3 in the third-place match.

North Bend had a pair of placers and Marshfield one in the Class 4A meet.

Neal Walter, the top seed at 220 pounds, placed third for North Bend.

He lost 4-0 in the quarterfinals to Jesse Wood of Crook County, but avenged that loss in the thirdplace match when he pinned Wood. Walter had three straight consolation pins leading into the win over Wood.

North Bend’s Wyatt Smith placed fifth at 138 pounds, beating Estacada’s Tucker Jackson 8-1 in the

placing match.

Marshfield’s placer was Jonathan Calvert, who took fourth at 152 pounds after reaching the semifinals. Other boys who won matches but did not place in the tournament were Marshfield’s Leaonardo Pacheco (106 pounds), Reese Hite (113), Bailey Thompson (126), Ethan Flood (138) and Aryan Wright and Wyatt Petley (170); and North Bend’s Kevin Garcia (160).

Siuslaw was fifth and Coquille tied for 13th in the Class 3A team race.

Myrtle Point was 14th in Class 2A-1A while North Bend was 13th and Marshfield 15th in Class 4A.

GIRLS Siuslaw’s Macali Lade was the champion at 110 pounds, winning all three of her matches by pin, including taking down Taft’s Julia Towers in 3:36 in the final.

Jane Lacouture was third at 155

pounds for Siuslaw, reaching the semifinals before losing and then beating La Grande’s Kaitlin Brock in the third-place match.

Coquille’s Azalea Liles and Brookings-Harbor’s Lexie Newman also both placed third, each by winning three straight matches after losing in the first round.

Liles beat Serenity Moody of Banks 8-5 in the third-place match at 115 pounds. Newman pinned Elmira’s Katarina Jetnzch in the third-place match.

Marshfield’s Mariana Velasquez placed fourth at 235 pounds, losing both her first match and the thirdplace match to top seed Stephanie Romero of Irrigon.

North Bend’s Kayla Hayes won her first match at 115 pounds but did not place.

Siuslaw placed sixth in the girls team race, won by La Pine. Brookings-Harbor was 25th, Coquille 32nd, Marshfield 35th and North Bend 40th.

Amazing rally puts Bandon girls in state tournament

The World

Bandon’s girls are back in the Class 2A state tournament in Pendleton after the Tigers rallied from 16 points down in the fourth quarter and beat visiting Regis 60-56 in overtime Friday night.

Lizzy Stice made a 3-pointer at the buzzer to force the extra session and Bandon outscored the Rams 12-8 in overtime to win and make another trip to Pendleton. They have earned trophies their past three trips to the tournament.

“What a great team win,” Bandon coach Jordan Sammons said.

Makiah Vierck had three 3-pointers and 19 points to lead the Tigers. Olivia Thompson had 12, Stice 10, Makenna Vierck eight and Nyah Dimitruk six. It was Stice’s huge shot at the end of regulation (she scored all her points in the fourth quarter and OT) that kept

Bandon’s season alive. “If anyone knew how many hours and shots this girl put up this offseason, they wouldn’t be surprised at all she stepped up in one of the biggest moments,” Sammons said.

Adelle Otter had 19 points and Kenzid Schacher 14 for Regis, which held Bandon to two points in the first quarter and led 42-28 heading to the final quarter.

Bandon opens the state tournament at 6:30 p.m. Thursday against Stanfield at Pendleton High School.

The Tigers are one of three teams from the Valley Coast Conference to make the final site. Central Linn beat Weston-McEwen 50-29 and Monroe won at Knappa 36-26 in the playoffs.

Monroe plays top-ranked Salem Academy and Central Linn, the No. 2 seed, faces Colton in the quarterfinals. Stanfield is seeded third and Bandon sixth. The other

quarterfinal features No. 4 Gervais against No. 5 Western Christian.

COQUILLE POST-

Results were not available by press time.

State tournament begins Thursday at Marshfield and North Bend

The Class 3A state tournament begins Thursday at Marshfield and North Bend high schools, with the top teams in the state headed to the area for the three-day event.

The girls quarterfinals are Thursday at North Bend while the boys are at Marshfield.

The boys consolation games Friday morning are at North Bend and all the rest of the games are at Marshfield.

Marshfield’s girls also host a Class 4A playoff game Friday, which will alter somewhat when the semifinals are scheduled.

All the home teams won in the boys playoffs Saturday, most by wide margins.

Top-ranked Westside Christian beat Sisters 62-43 and will meet No. 8 Pleasant Hill at 1:30 p.m. Thursday. The Billies beat Burns 70-27.

The 3:15 p.m. game features No. 4 Banks against No. 5 Oregon Episcopal. The Braves beat St. Mary’s 61-41 and OES topped Santiam Christian 66-51.

The 6:30 p.m. game should be the best of the first day, with No. 3 Dayton against No. 6 Cascade Christian (they are ranked second and

third in the coaches poll behind De La Salle North Catholic). Dayton beat Umatillia 58-36 and the defending champion Challengers crushed Amity 85-36.

The final game of the first day, at 8:15, features No. 2 De La Salle North Catholic against No. 7 Creswell. The Knights beat Harrisburg 80-26 and Creswell beat Riverdale 68-16.

Two schools have both their boys and girls teams in the tournament — Banks and Pleasant Hill.

Meanwhile, three of the girls teams weren’t even in Class 3A last year.

The first game at North Bend at 1:30 p.m. Thursday features two of them.

Top-ranked Banks meets No. 9 Lakeview in a matchup of a team that dropped down from Class 4A and a squad that moved up from Class 2A.

Banks held off a tough challenge from Burns to win 45-37 and Lakeview easily beat host De La Salle North Catholic 58-43 to get to the Bay Area.

The other Class 3A newcomer will be either Corbett, which played for the Class 4A title last winter, or Co-

quille, which moved up from Class 2A. They played Monday night after press time.

MANNAHOUSE ACADEMY 56, BANDON 44:

The Tigers put up a good fight on the road against the top-ranked team in Class 2A, but weren’t able to overcome mistakes and missed a trip to the state tournament.

“We had numerous chances to take the lead and change the dynamic of the game, but turnovers was our enemy,” Bandon coach Vince Quattrocchi said.

Mannahouse Academy didn’t put the game away until outscoring the Tigers 19-11 in the fourth quarter.

Owen Brown had 14 points, Carter Brown nine and Eli Freitag seven for Bandon.

“I’m proud of how the season turned out and how far this team has come,” Quattrocchi said. “It’s a good group of kids and I’m sad to see it end.

“The boys battled to the very end. Mannahouse came up with big 3-pointers in the game when we were getting good momentum. We just

couldn’t get over the hump.”

Only one of the five teams from the Valley Coast Conference reached the state tournament, with East Linn Christian edging Willamina 51-47 in overtime.

Clackamas stops SWOCC win streak at five

Lakers sit alone in second as NWAC season nears

The Southwestern Oregon Community College men’s basketball team saw its five-game NWAC South Region win streak end when league-leading Clackamas topped the Lakers 81-76 in the home finale for SWOCC.

The Lakers still are in good shape for a spot in the NWAC tournament with road games remaining this week at Linn-Benton on Wednesday and Portland on Friday.

Clackamas wrapped up a share of the region title by improving to 11-2 with the win.

The Cougars have three games to go because their contest with Clark on Wednesday was postponed.

SWOCC is 9-5, while Linn-Benton is 8-6, Umpqua 7-6, Portland 7-7 and Mount Hood 6-6.

Umpqua and Mount Hood had their game postponed on Saturday and Mount

conclusion

Hood and Portland still have to make up their game from Wednesday.

The Lakers have been stellar on the road, winning their past five league games away from home.

Saturday’s game was close most of the way, but the Lakers had just 11 points in the last eight minutes and the Cougars put the game away with late free throws.

Zach Jefferson had 26 points and eight rebounds to lead the Lakers and O’shen Cazmiero added 12 points.

They both started on the bench as the Lakers honored their four sophomores — Cody Nixon, Joseph Schulkins, Onwaja Thomas and Coquille graduate Ean Smith, who all were in the starting lineup.

TJ Doman had 27 points and Wade Autenreith 26 for the Cougars.

WOMEN SWOCC suffered another

loss when the visiting Cougars beat the Lakers 79-46 on Saturday.

SWOCC led 13-11 through one quarter, but was outscored 68-33 the rest of the way.

Jaci Powers had 17 points to lead the Lakers and Skylar Willey added nine.

Callie Glenn had 15 for the Cougars.

The Lakers honored sophomores Kiana Quintero, Kaelynn Teagle and Gillian Roybal.

The four spots in the NWAC tournament for the women already have been decided, with Lane at 12-1, Clackamas at 11-2, Umpqua at 10-3 and Linn-Benton at 10-4.

The other five teams all have either three or four wins.

Oregon Legislature sees COVID-19 exposure, partisan wrangling

By GAry A. WArNer Oregon Capital Bureau

The COVID-19 pandemic may impact the legislative session, joining a political stew of items in Salem and Washington, D.C., that includes a trip to the Mexican border, an overstuffed legislative agenda, opposition to praise for county election officials and a new look at how rare the Democratic primary loss in Oregon’s 5th District - which includes Bend - was in

the national election landscape. COVID-19 returns to Capitol: Legislative officials confirmed Wednesday afternoon that they had received a report of at least one exposure to COVID-19 in the Oregon Capitol.

A press conference on a $200 million affordable housing package before the House Committee on Housing and Homelessness was revised to be virtual-only.

The announcement that the press event would be online only refer-

enced an “exposure” in the Capitol. An earlier unofficial comment referred to the COVID-19 report as an “outbreak.”

Hannah Kurowski, communications director for House Democrats, who was involved in the housing press event, confirmed that there was at least one known COVID-19 case reported at the Capitol.

Kurowski said she did not have additional information immediately on the extent of the exposure, or whether the infection was among

state lawmakers, staff, workers, or others.

During COVID-19 cases in recent years, the identity of who was infected was not released in keeping with medical privacy laws.

Some lawmakers, such as former Sen. Dallas Heard, R-Roseburg, previously confirmed they had tested positive.

Heard said he chose not to be vaccinated. Heard recovered, but for political reasons, opted to give up his seat in

the Senate prior to the beginning of the current session.

Heard was replaced by former Rep. David Brock Smith, R-Port Orford.

The omicron variants that dominated the pandemic during 2022 and continue to account for the largest share of cases are hyper-contagious and can infect those who have been vaccinated.

The vaccines and boosters have been shown to limit the severity of omicron cases.
