Chaos engulfs Operation Rebuild Hope By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

Chaos has engulfed Operation Rebuild Hope, a North Bend nonprofit that works to provide housing to homeless veterans, After the founder and executive director of the nonprofit, Patrick Wright, was arrested following an incident with Coos Bay police, the board of directors met June

16 and voted to ask Wright too voluntarily step down for 60 days. Rather than comply, it appears Wright terminated several employees who also serve as board members, changed the locks at the organization’s office to keep those employees out and is attempting to maintain control of the operation. The conflict began when Wright was involved in an

altercation at Front Street Provisioners near downtown Coos Bay when he attempted to stop a fight. The altercation escalated after police arrived, and officers took Wright into custody. He was transported to the county jail on charges of assault IV, disorderly conduct II and resisting arrest before being released. As of June 20, no official charges have been filed by the

district attorney's office. According to information released to The World, the board of directors at Operation Rebuild Hope called an emergency board meeting June 16 to discuss the issue. According to the board documents, the organization had been contacted by members of the media. The board members also were concerned that if something was not done about Wright, Operation

Rebuild Hope could be in danger of losing grants it needs to operate. At the meeting, the board's attorney said it was in danger of losing "all" grant funding if nothing was done. The board then voted 7-0 with two members abstaining to ask Wright to step down for 60 days. In addition, Wright was asked to undergo counseling for alPlease see ARREST, Page A3

settling here, the judge, who was presiding over the case and staying at the hotel of the man who pressed the charges, sentenced Jacob Vanderpool to be exiled from the state of Oregon. Jacob Vanderpool was then forced to leave behind his life in Oregon City, never again returning to the state of Oregon." Stewart wrote that the Juneteenth celebration in 2021 was the impetus for similar efforts in other communities, such as Oregon City.

Children 6 months and older are the latest group to become eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine after the state granted its approval over the weekend. The Office of Oregon Gov. Kate Brown reported Sunday, June 12, that the Western States Scientific Safety Review Workgroup had completed its review of the federal process and unanimously concluded that the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines are safe and effective for children as young as 6 months old. The Moderna two-dose vaccine series and the Pfizer three-dose vaccine series are now available to children 6 months to 5 years old, according to a press release from the Oregon Health Authority (OHA). The OHA informed healthcare providers that they could begin administering the vaccines as soon as Monday, June 13. The news comes after State Epidemiologist Dr. Dean Sidelinger, joined by OHSU School of Medicine Professor of Pediatrics Dr. Dawn Nolt, announced the FDA’s approval of pediatric doses for the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines at a press conference held Friday, June 17.

Coos Bay celebrates Juneteenth for the second time By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

One year ago, the Coos History Museum started a new tradition by celebrating Juneteenth for the first time. During that first celebration in 2021, the museum partnered with the Equal Justice Initiative to place a memorial marker at the museum that remembers the lynching of Alonzo Tucker. One of the reasons for placing the marker was to face a checkered past. But during the second Juneteenth celebration last weekend,

the museum learned the impact of staring down racism in the history of Coos Bay may have had an impact statewide. In 2021, Taylor Stewart, the founder of the Oregon Remembrance Project, joined more than 200 people at the museum to help place the memorial marker for Tucker. This year, he was in Oregon City, but he sent a message to the volunteers who started it all a year ago. :I am currently in Oregon City, continuing our tradition of Juneteenth as not just a day of reflection, but a day of action," Stewart

wrote. "Similar to last year’s Coos Bay Juneteenth celebration, Oregon City will be honoring the memory of a man named Jacob Vanderpool, the only known person expelled from Oregon under the state’s Black exclusionary laws. Located in Oregon City, Jacob Vanderpool was a business owner and was forced to leave Oregon in 1851 after a competing white business owner reported him to authorities. Even though Oregon’s Black exclusionary laws were not meant to expel African Americans from the state, just prevent them from

Volunteers help clean up yard for veteran By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

After cleaning up local parks, land for a nonprofit agency and Marshfield Pioneer Cemetery, volunteers with Oregon Bay Area Beautification went a little smaller last weekend when volunteers cleaned up the yard of a military veteran. Penny Moloso, a council member for the organization, said they are always looking for new ways to give back to the community and to make it a little cleaner. "The need here came from Krystal Hopper, and she kind of put the word out here to help John and his wife, Diane," Moloso said. "We've helped them weed and clean up the trees and plant some trees." John Thomas joined the Air Force in 1962 while 17 years old. He served as a ground radio operator, spending 13 months in South Korea, watching the DMZ at the border and North and South Korea. Her served four years before being honorably discharged in 1966. Thomas and his wife have a home with a large yard on the outskirts of Coos Bay, but as

Commission adopts Coquille Tribe agreement The Fish and Wildlife Commission recently voted at its meeting in Salem to adopt a new Cooperative Management Agreement between the Coquille Indian Tribe and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. The agreement establishes a voluntary cooperative partnership between ODFW and the Tribe to collaborate, share resources and work as partners to develop and implement plans to protect, restore and enhance fish and wildlife populations and their habitat within a five county area of southwest Oregon (Coos, Curry, Douglas, Lane, and Jackson counties, including the associated nearshore marine areas), an area defined as the Tribe’s service area by the federal government. The agreement will enhance tribal sovereignty and give the tribe a stronger voice in protecting and enhancing fish, wildlife, and their habitats. It will also set up a framework under which Coquille tribal members will participate in subsistence and ceremonial harvest of fish and wildlife resources licensed and managed by the tribal government in partnership with ODFW and the Oregon State Police. Within those counties, enrolled members of the Coquille Indian Tribe will participate in hunting, fishing,

shellfishing, and trapping licensed by the Coquille Indian Tribe. Annual harvest limits and areas for harvest by tribal members will be set by mutual consent between the Tribe and ODFW. In other business, the commission: Approved 2023-25 Agency Request Budget: ODFW's requested budget requests a number of new investments in water planning and flow restoration, habitat protection, fish research and restoration, fish passage, and other actions related to climate resiliency. The budget now goes to the Governor’s office for consideration. The Governor will submit a state budget for the Legislature to consider during the 2023 session. Adopted commercial coastal pelagic species (CPS) regulations: The Commission approved federal harvest specifications and management measures that continue closure of the directed Pacific sardine fishery for the next year due to depressed stock status while providing for very low harvest allowances in other fishing sectors across West Coast.

“Today is a monumental step forward in our nation’s fight against the virus, with virtually every American now eligible for the protections that COVID-19 vaccines provide,” President Joe Biden said. “For parents all over the country, this is a day of relief and celebration.” Children aged 6 months to 5 years are the last subgroup to become eligible for the vaccine. The pediatric vaccine rollout will expand eligibility to 230,000 Oregon children and 20 million children in the United States. Pandemic outlook At the June 17 media briefing, Sidelinger touched on several points, including the downward trend of COVID-19 hospitalizations and Oregon’s still high level of community spread. According to Sidelinger, COVID-19 test positivity rose slightly from 11.4% on May 16 to 11.7% on June 14, and during the last month, daily reported case counts have leveled, from

"Coos Bay’s efforts to reconcile the lynching of Alonzo Tucker has inspired Oregon City to memorialize and continue the story of Jacob Vanderpool," Stewart wrote. "We will attempt to place a historical marker where his business once stood and develop a recruitment and retention plan for people of color in the community as our way to honor the memory and experience of Jacob Vanderpool. His story will live on long after 1851 and will be used as an impetus for improving the lived experience of people of color in his community today. Oregon City will follow in the footsteps of Coos Bay by adding these new chapters and just ending to the story of Jacob Vanderpool." But.

According to the terms the board approved, during the 60 days he was supposed to be away from the organization, Wright would have no access to the agency’s properties, work email, computers, cannot contact clients and must abstain from Operation Rebuild Hope's social media accounts. In addition, he will be required to check in with the board bi-weekly, and cannot retaliate against any employee, clients or family members. Failure to comply with the terms will results in the immediate termination, the report reads. But it appears Wright rejected the terms. A social media posting released on Operation Rebuild Hope’s Facebook page Tuesday reads, “Operation Rebuild Hope is aware there are individuals currently acting as employees and on the behalf of ORH. These individuals have been terminated as of last week. Patrick Wright is the current executive director. Secondly, board members have been asked to adhere to their signed non disclosure agreement. Thirdly and most importantly, please know all grant funding is secure and above all so is the safety of our veteran clients.” Operation Rebuild Hope was started by Wright as a nonprofit helping homeless veterans find housing. Through the years, it has successfully

a rolling seven-day average of 1,401 cases reported on May 16, to 1,487 on June 14. “We assume these numbers are a dramatic undercount of the actual number of cases because we know many people are using at-home tests and not reporting the results,” Sidelinger said. “We also know many others are not getting tested. Trends in this state and around the country tell us there are higher levels of transmission.” As of Friday, June 17, there were 1,596 new COVID cases and six hospitalizations (309 overall). Vaccine efficacy According to a CDC report on the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine efficacy for children aged 6 months to 4 years, vaccines were 41.5% effective against COVID-19 infection up to 2.5 months after receiving a second dose. The CDC reported similar findings with vaccine effectiveness for adults aged 18-64 years at the height of Omicron. The CDC’s COVID-19 Data Tracker shows that the Omicron

Back to masks? On Thursday, May 12, Multnomah County officials urged residents to consider readopting face coverings in public indoor spaces after the COVID-19 daily case count more than tripled from April to May. While the recommendation fell short of a mandate, after conducting interviews with OHA officials, The Chronicle learned that the possibility of reimposing mandates is not out of the picture. In an email correspondence, OHA Public Affairs Specialist Rudy Peter answered a question from The Chronicle as to whether there is a potential for mask mandates to come back in the fall should case numbers rise. “The Oregon Health Authority monitors communicable disease outbreaks, including COVID-19 case rates and hospital capacity,”

been the only community to be inspired by Coos Bay since last year’s Juneteenth ceremony," Stewart wrote. "The community of Grants Pass has begun their own historical reconciliation on their history as a sundown town. Sundown towns were communities that purposefully excluded African Americans from living in, and sometimes simply passing through, their community through a culture of fear, violence, and intimidation. The goal in Grants Pass is to rewrite the ending to the story of a sundown town and create an ending where a formally exclusionary community can become one of the communities most committed to inclusivity because of its history." Stewart praised the museum and the volunteer Juneteenth Committee that faced its future a year ago and continues to celebrate the impact Black community members have had and still have in Coos Bay. "By simply asking the

question, 'How do you reconcile a lynching,' I’ve learned alongside you that there are three r words within this idea of reconciliation—remembrance, repair, and redemption—and, that in order for us to get to that last r word of redemption, we need to have the courage it takes to undertake the first two," Stewart wrote. "The unveiling of the Alonzo Tucker historical marker was more than just a retelling of history, it was also the making of history as over 600 people, double that who were at the 1902 lynching, gathered in-person and virtually at the ceremony to add this new chapter to Alonzo Tucker’s story." While placing the Tucker marker was an important step for the Coos History Museum, it was only the first Juneteenth celebration that promises to continue into the future. Over the weekend, the museum hosted a two-day celebration. On Saturday, the museum partnered with Oregon

Peter responded. “If hospital capacity is strained, unable to care for the public, OHA will take steps to ensure hospital care is accessible to those in need.” According to Peter, keeping a close eye on COVID-19 caseloads and hospital admission rates in service areas will be critical in determining whether hospital capacity is at risk. “New COVID-19 admissions and the percent of staffed inpatient beds occupied represent the current potential for strain on the health system,” he said. “Data on new cases acts as an early warning indicator of potential increases in health system strain in the event of a COVID-19 surge.” On Dec. 27, 2021, The Chronicle reported that the OHA filed a proposed rulemaking notice with the Oregon Secretary of State’s Office, requesting changes to the current rule requiring the adoption of the indoor masks in Oregon, that would have expired on Feb. 8, 2022. In February, the OHA’s Public Health Division filed a Permanent Administrative Order repealing the temporary order.

Zachary Stocks, executive director of the Oregon Black Pioneers, said the Beaver Hill site shows the impact the Black community had during early Oregon. “At Oregon Black Pioneers, we are especially interested in illuminating the experience of Black Oregonians who made a life for themselves and their families in remote parts of our state," Stocks said. "The Beaver Hill story illustrates how people of African descent have made every corner of Oregon their home, in spite of

you live, you can always clean up," Moloso said. "The more we as a community see what a small amount of people can do and what a difference it makes, it will help. I would love to see the neighborhoods clean up." Oregon Bay Area Beautification will return to clean up John Topits Park during its Second Saturday Cleanup in July.

The order reads in part as follows. “The Authority gives the Oregon State Public Health Director or the Oregon State Health Officer the authority to rescind and reinstate all or parts of the rule taking into consideration, at a minimum, information and data related to COVID-19 transmission, hospitalizations and deaths, disparate effects on communities of color and tribal communities, guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and rates of vaccination for COVID-19.” CDC data shows Columbia County as in the medium-risk category for COVID-19 transmission, meaning recommendations are as follows: • If you are at high risk for severe illness, talk to your healthcare provider about whether you need to wear a mask and take other precautions. • Stay up to date with COVID-19 vaccines. • Get tested if you have symptoms. See covid.cdc.gov for more data, resources, and updates about COVID-19.

legal and social exclusion. A single reference to a handful of Black miners at Beaver Hill inspired us to learn more. In the process, we learned that in time, Beaver Hill likely had the second largest Black population in Oregon, behind only Portland, and was home to some of Oregon’s earliest Black Masonic lodges, Black baseball teams and integrated schools. We celebrate the diversity of this mining community and the courage of all its residents.” On Sunday, officially Juneteenth, the museum hosted a ceremony remembering the histor-

ic moment on June 19, 1865, when Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced the freedom of all slaves thanks to the Emancipation Proclamation signed by Pres. Abraham Lincoln. Annis Cassells read sections of the book "On Juneteenth," by Annette Gordon-Reed, and Jamar Ruff read the Emancipation Proclamation during the ceremony. That was followed by music, food and fun as the Coos Bay continued a new tradition and honoring and remembering the current and past impact of Black community members.

OBITUARIES Donald Hanly Sweet

Dorothy Mae Miller

Feb. 2, 1924 - May 12, 2022

June 5, 1933 – June 14, 2022

Donald Hanly Sweet passed away peacefully at age 98 on May 12, 2022 after suffering a stroke; less than three months after the passing of Beth Sweet, his beloved wife of 73 years. Don will be remembered for his kindness, integrity, and intellect, and for being a loving husband and father. He will also be remembered for his warm smile, for organizing memorable family trips, for beautifully playing Gershwin pieces on the piano, and for the annual summer bounty of produce from his vegetable gardens. Don was the last of the five children of William John Sweet and Teresa Emily Sweet (nee Hanly) to pass away. In addition, he was the last of the twenty-two grandchildren of John Benoni Sweet and Susan Anne Sweet (nee Gormley) to pass away. His passing represents the end of a significant chapter in the history of the Sweet family. Don was born in Bandon, Oregon. His family lived in a house overlooking Bandon Beach until September 26, 1936 when the entire town burned down in a fire. Even in his final years, Don never forgot this date.

After the fire, his family moved to their ranch south of Bandon. In the spring of 1942, Don graduated from Port Orford High School. There were nine students in his graduating class. In the fall, he enrolled at Stanford. A big change in his life! World War II disrupted his college years. At the end of his freshman year at Stanford, Don enrolled in the Navy V-12 program and was sent to Cal Tech along with several other Stanford classmates. He completed his undergraduate education on an accelerated basis, earning a degree in Electrical Engineering within two years. He was then sent to Midshipman’s School at Cornell. Don was there when the war ended on V-J Day. After Midshipman’s School, he was assigned to the Naval Repair Base in New Orleans. There he met Beth Greenwald at a Naval Officers’ ball, where she was serving as a hostess, and shortly thereafter they started dating. When he was sent to the Navy’s radar school in Georgia, Don continued to court Beth by letter and longdistance phone calls.

After radar school he was assigned to serve in Pearl Harbor for the remainder of his time in the Navy. While there, he applied for admission to Stanford Business School. He returned to Stanford in the fall of 1946 and earned his MBA in June of 1948. Don and Beth were married in New Orleans on June 26, 1948. After their wedding, they moved to Coos Bay, Oregon – to live near Don’s family. For the next decade they lived in Coos Bay and Bandon where Don worked in several family businesses in timber and banking. During these years, they made many lifelong friends as a young couple. There was no television, and their lives were full with picnics, potluck dinners, dances at the Elks Club, and bridge games with their friends.

A memorial service to celebrate the life of Dorothy M. Miller, 89, of Coos Bay, will be held on Saturday, June 25, 2022 at 11:00 a.m. at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church, 1290 Thompson Road in Coos Bay, with Pastor Alyssa Augustson presiding. Private cremation rites were held at Ocean View Memory Gardens in Coos Bay with a private inurnment to take place at a later date at Willamette National Cemetery in Portland. Dorothy was born Dorothy Mae Clark on June 5, 1933 in the Village of Walker, near Benedict, Minnesota. Her parents were Harold and Annie, and she had four siblings, Maxine, Haroldine, Lyle and Al. Dorothy graduated from Laporte High School, class of 1951 and later earned a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education at Marylhurst University. Dorothy met her husband Bob when they were both teenagers in Kabekona

Corner, Minnesota. Dorothy and Bob were married on December 17, 1955. They had two children, Marla and Roger. Dorothy worked as an elementary school teacher and substitute teacher. Dorothy and her family moved to Oregon in 1961. Dorothy and Bob owned and ran a Western Auto store for 5 years. After that, she was the Director of the Bandon Community Child Care Center for many years. She loved working with children and helping them develop. She also did extensive volunteer work with Habitat for Humanity and worked as a mediator for the municipal courts. Dorothy is survived by her children, Marla and her husband, Jimmy and Roger and his wife, Sherry; grandchildren, David, Geoffrey, and Sarah and her husband Celso; great-grandson Leobardo; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, in-laws and stepfamily. Dorothy was a deeply caring person who

was loved and treasured by all who knew her. Dorothy was preceded in death by her parents, Harold and Annie Clark; her husband, Bob; her sister, Maxine; her granddaughter, Amy; and her great granddaughter, Guadalupe. Friends and family are encouraged to sign the online guestbook at www. coosbayareafunerals.com and www.theworldlink. com. Arrangements are under the care of the North Bend Chapel, 541-7560440.

DEAR ABBY

COUPLE'S 'GOLDEN YEARS' LOOK INCREASINGLY DARK

DEAR ABBY: My husband, who is 81 and in excellent health, has just suggested that when we feel we can no longer live independent lives (I am 72), we should move closer to his daughter in another state so she and her husband can help us. Abby, I don't LIKE her husband, and I don't want to be reliant on him, beholden to him or even socialize with him. In the 15 years I have known him, we have never had a conversation. In the beginning, I tried, but he cannot relate to older women. Apparently, he didn't have a good relationship with his mother. His only topics of conversation are his dogs, guns or sports. I have no interest in any of those things. It breaks my heart that my husband and I may not be spending the last years of our lives together. I'm sure my husband would tell me to "get over" my dislike of his daughter's husband. Do I have to agree to be around someone I have nothing in common with? I don't like the part of the country they live in either. -- NERVOUS IN NEW MEXICO DEAR NERVOUS: My late mother once told me that parents who count on their adult children "taking care of them" in their old age are

often in for a rude awakening. You and your husband are supposed to be equal partners in this marriage. If you dislike not only the man his daughter is married to but also the area of the country in which they live, no law says you are obligated to relocate. I recommend you have that difficult discussion with your spouse soon, preferably in the office of a licensed marriage and family therapist. DEAR ABBY: I have been in an on-and-off relationship with a woman for three years. We live about two hours apart. In the beginning, our relationship was wonderful. We would see each other on a regular basis and would text and video chat almost daily. We even talked about marriage. But as time went on, she became more and more distant. She would either take forever to respond back to me or not respond at all. Her excuse was work. She was always working and always had something going on. I then found out she was dealing with a couple of personal things. When I explained to her that relationships are all about communication, she kind of disagreed. At one point, I was so upset, angry and frustrated that I said some horrible

things to her. I even used foul language because of her not communicating. Also, she didn't even bother to take two minutes out of her time to wish me a happy birthday. I always remember her on her birthday. She is making me out to be the bad guy. I'm so hurt and angry at her because of her refusal to communicate. Abby, what else can I do? Am I really the bad person here? -- UNCERTAIN IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR UNCERTAIN: Although you refuse to recognize it, this woman HAS been communicating with you. Her behavior indicates that she is nowhere as interested in you as you are in her, which should have become apparent as she became more and more distant. You are not a bad person, and neither is she. She's just afraid to give you the bad news verbally. In cases like this, there is nothing you can do besides tell her it's apparent she isn't as invested in the relationship as you are and make a graceful exit. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Guest Opinion

We need every tool to fight today’s wildfires By STEVE PYNE We know now that the largest recorded fire in New Mexico history was started by an escaped “prescribed burn,” or rather by two. The Hermit’s Peak fire bolted away on April 6 when unexpectedly gusty winds blew sparks beyond control lines. Then the Calf Canyon fire raced off on April 9 when similar winds fanned embers in burn piles first kindled in January. The two fires soon merged. Together, as of June 12, they have scorched 320,333 acres, with two-thirds of the fire perimeter regarded as contained. New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s reaction was to insist that federal agencies reconsider their policy on spring burns. The chief of the U.S. Forest Service, Randy Moore, responded by announcing a halt on prescribed burning for a 90-day review period. Inevitably, the blowups invited comparison to the 2000 Cerro Grande fire in New Mexico that began as a prescribed burn, then blew out of Bandelier National Monument and into Los Alamos. It was the largest chronicled fire in the state’s history — until now. Prescribed fire is not likely to be challenged in principle. Recognition seems widespread that controlled burning is a legitimate source of good fire that can reduce the threat from areas likely to burn. States from Florida to California have even reformed liability law to encourage burning on private lands. The real threat to fire management is death by a thousand cuts, each breakdown leading to shutdowns, each partisan group extracting a concession, that together so encumber the practice that it can’t be implemented. There is always something that can cause a prescribed burn to be shuttered. There is no equivalent mechanism to make up the loss. It’s not news that the Western fire scene has become complicated. The early 20th century days, when one response — extinguish by 10 am the next morning — was adequate are long past. It was a marvelous administrative stroke: No confusion, no compromise, one size fits all. But it made the fire scene worse by encouraging ecological rot and an incendiary buildup of fuels. The change in policy was clear and necessary: Fire is inevitable, and we need to manage it. Today, all aspects of landscape fire are plural. Fire control does not mean one thing; it em-

braces many strategies. It might refer to protecting towns or sage grouse habitat. It can resemble urban firefighting, or for reasons of safety, cost and environmental health, it could mean containing fires within broad borders. It varies from extinguishing an abandoned campfire to herding mega-fires rolling over the Continental Divide. It might involve bulldozing around municipal watersheds, or working-with-nature firelines in wilderness. It might mean setting emergency backfires that can resemble a prescribed fire done under urgent conditions.. So, also, with prescribed burning. It might mean burning logging slash or piled cuttings from thinning operations. Or it might refer to broadcast burns that range freely over areas from an acre to a landscape. It can mean burning to improve forage in tallgrass prairie, to prune pine savannas, or to promote habitat for Karner blue butterflies. Wildfire acts as an all-spectrum ecological catalyst. Good prescribed burns will do the same thing. The choice isn’t between one strategy or the other; it’s selecting from a variety of techniques that work in particular settings and seasons. We need them all, not least because each strategy by itself can fail. Fires escape initial suppression at a rate of 2-3 percent. Prescribed fires escape at a rate of 1.5 percent for the National Park Service, or less than 1 percent according to Forest Service records. Managing naturally caused fires has a similar rate of failure. When an escape occurs, however, its destructiveness makes news. Those figures are not likely to drop. We can’t control the setting of a wildland fire as we can a blowtorch. All we can do is juggle strategies so that each strategy’s strengths fill the others’ weaknesses. The 2000 blowout in New Mexico made prescribed burning more difficult but led to a National Fire Plan. Twenty years later, the fire scene has grown bigger, meaner, tougher. The Hermits Peak fire will likely end up an order of magnitude larger than Cerro Grande. Inevitably, our future holds a lot of fire. The goal is always to find and employ the right mix of fire for the land. Steve Pyne is a contributor to Writers on the Range, a nonprofit dedicated to spurring lively conversation about the West. He is a fire historian, urban farmer and author of The Pyrocene.

Letters to the Editor Deal with it

Re: Terry Moore. In response to your letter about " gun huggers." That is as much a derogatory term to me as " gun-control crazy, leftist nut job" is to you so let's drop it OK? Any law concerning guns is simply a crowbar to work its way into banning all guns and the possesion thereof. That is why we get upset about it. In all of the mass shootings that have taken place in the last 20 years (which I believe has been planned to this end of taking away your rights as a gun owner)... if one person had had a weapon to stop what was happening...no one would have died. If you are afraid that's your problem but do not think you have the right to stop me from exercising my right as an American to own a gun. I don't appreciate the immature "rolling coal" people either. It's not right to act that way. You get treated that way because you put yourself in that position. Deal with it. Toni Griffin Coos Bay

Supply chain issues impacting Central Lincoln P.U.D.

Like utilities nationwide, Central Lincoln is being greatly challenged by supply chain delays, material shortages and massive cost increases for materials delivered. Demand for electrical supplies is robust, while transportation bottlenecks and raw material constraints are causing us significant concern over our ability to

meet construction timelines. As we address these issues, Central Lincoln will strive to maintain supply levels to meet customer needs, while still maintaining emergency inventories. We’ve all seen supply chain issues impact many aspects of life today. In some cases, lead times for Central Lincoln have increased six fold in the last two years when we’ve placed orders for materials. For example, new residential transformers typically took four months for delivery prior to the pandemic, and now they take between one year to 20 months to arrive. Costs for materials are also soaring—transformers that were $2,500 two years ago are now $15,000 each and is continuing to increase. This is not an exaggeration. We were pleased to learn recently that the Defense Production Act has been invoked to boost the production of transformers. That’s an important step, but the material shortages also extend to equipment beyond transformers and we don’t anticipate the situation to be fixed quickly. We appreciate our customers’ patience and understanding, and we will do our best to continue to meet their needs in a timely fashion, however, many of these delays are beyond our control. We will continue to be clear about our challenges with regard to supplies, and will work closely with our customers and suppliers to handle these difficult times together. We ask that builders and construction companies give us as much advance notice as possible about their upcoming projects, and for their consideration in this unprecedented time. Ty Hillebrand, P.E., General Manager Central Lincoln P.U.D.

Guest Opinion

A Word, Please: Apostrophe errors By JUNE CASAGRANDE If you have a good grasp of apostrophes, you probably notice that a lot of other people don’t. You could be forgiven for rolling your eyes at sentences like “The dog wagged it’s tail,” which incorrectly uses “it’s” instead of “its.” You might also notice people incorrectly using apostrophes to form plurals, like “I love mango’s.” But that doesn’t mean you’re immune to apostrophe errors. Sometimes apostrophes are tough. Really tough. Here are six advanced apostrophe uses you’re probably getting wrong. Attorneys general’s. Word-savvy people know the plural of “attorney general” is “attorneys general.” But if you wanted to make that possessive, where would you put the apostrophe? You might guess that because the first word takes the plural S, that’s where your possessive apostrophe should go. But you would be wrong. The correct form is “All the attorneys general’s cars are parked outside.” As the Associated Press Stylebook explains it, that’s because apostrophe and the S should come closest to the thing possessed, which in this case means the cars. Two weeks’ notice. Technically, you can omit the apostrophe from this if you want. But in some styles, notably AP, that would be an error. Terms like two weeks’ notice, one day’s pay and five years’ probation are considered “quasi possessives.”

That’s why they usually take possessive apostrophes. The 1980s. It’s not uncommon to see people use apostrophes in decades: “the 1980’s.” But in the world of professional writing, that’s a no-no. The ’80s. Besides showing possession, an apostrophe has a second job: standing in for omitted letters or numbers. Unfortunately, your word processing software doesn’t really get it. When you type an apostrophe before a word or number, Microsoft Word and other programs usually assume you wanted not an apostrophe, which curves almost like a backward letter C, but an opening single quotation mark, which curves with its opening to the right like the letter C. An easy fix: Type the apostrophe twice. Word will make the first one a single quotation mark but it will make the second one a proper apostrophe. Then just delete the first mark. Farmers market. To the apostrophe-savvy, the lack of punctuation in “farmers market” looks wrong. But it’s not. The idea is that “farmers” is essentially an adjective in this construction. You can choose a different interpretation if you want, opting for “farmers’ market,” but you’ll be out of sync with professional writing. Whenever you’re wondering whether a term like “teachers college” or “homeowners insurance” takes an apostrophe, consider AP’s advice: “The apostrophe usually is not used if ‘for’ or ‘by’ rather than ‘of’ would be appropriate in the longer form: a

radio band for citizens, a college for teachers, a guide for writers, a request by the Teamsters.” So no apostrophe in “teachers college,” “writers guide” or “homeowners insurance.” Charles’, Charles’s. You already know that to make most regular singular nouns possessive you add an apostrophe plus an S: the cook’s preference. And you know that to make most plural nouns possessive you just add an apostrophe after the possessive S: the cooks’ preference. But when the singular noun ends with an S or when the noun is a proper name, all hell breaks loose. You can see “the boss’s hat,” “the boss’ seat,” “Charles’ job” or “Charles’s job” and, confusingly, these can all be correct. Different editing styles have different rules for forming possessives of singular nouns that end in S. For example, AP style says it’s Charles’ job but Chicago says it’s Charles’s job. AP piles on more complicated rules. For example, it has different rules for proper nouns like Charles, which take only an apostrophe (Charles’ job) and generic nouns like virus, which take an apostrophe plus an S (the virus’s effect). Want a simple method? Just include the S with all these singular possessives. — June Casagrande is the author of “The Joy of Syntax: A Simple Guide to All the Grammar You Know You Should Know.” She can be reached at JuneTCN@aol.com

In addition, the Port received unanticipated funds to cover additional legislative support in the External Affairs department. The increase in expenditure created in Debt Service and External Affairs is offset by the increase of these unanticipated revenues. To cover the cost of unanticipated repairs and maintenance needed in both Charleston Operations and Railroad Operations the contingency line has been reallocated to cover these additional anticipated expenses.

Season underway for American Legion’s North Coos Waterfront The North Coos Waterfront has had an up-anddown start to the American Legion season, including a split with visiting Churchill of Eugene on Monday. The Waterfront lost the first game 5-1, the North Coos run coming on a home run by Sam Mickelson. In the nightcap, the Waterfront won 11-5. Jalen Riddle and Luke Wheeling both went 2-for-3 with a double.

Hunter Wheeling threw a complete game and Caden Hunt had a single and two doubles. Earlier North Coos had also split a doubleheader with Roseburg Pepsi in its league opener, split a nonleague twin bill with Brookings and dropped a pair of games to league newcomer Eugene Ole’s. North Coos nearly swept the doubleheader with Roseburg, but a bad final

inning cost the Waterfront a sweep. The North Coos win came by a score of 3-2. Knoll Gederos, Luke Wheeling and Aiden Nelson scored the runs and the Wheeling brothers combined to give up just two runs, both in the second inning. Roseburg won the second game 7-6, scoring six runs in the seventh inning, including a home run by

Jairrus Coleman. North Coos had taken a 5-1 lead to the seventh after scoring three runs in the fifth inning. Payton Forrester had two runs and Carter Brock, Mickelson and the two Wheelings also scored. Bryant Wicks was stellar pitching into the seventh inning before Roseburg rallied. Against Brookings, North Coos fell 2-1 and

won 11-1. Against Eugene, the scores were 15-1 and 18-0. North Coos has a busy schedule over the next few weeks, with the ultimate goal qualifying for the Legion A State Tournament, this year hosted by North Marion.

This week in Coos County history: June 24-June 27 100 YEARS — 1922 Bandit robs a Coquille café and gets away Holds up Jack Guyton, Marshal Parrott and Manager Foster of restaurant Ate meal before he pulled gun on house Coolly collected $19 from till and about $3 each from newspaperman and cop Said he hated to do it Good description given of young stranger who pulled off daring holdup at 11:30 last night COQUILLE — Very poor judgment was exercised on the part of a holdup man last night when he selected a newspaper man and night policeman as victims. The stranger held up the Foster Bros. Restaurant in Coquille about 11:30 p.m. Sunday evening. He got $19 from the restaurant till but was satisfied with a $2.50 contribution from the newspaper man and two or three dollars in silver handed out by the policeman. He did not attempt to search anyone and took only what was produced and made his escape. The robber was probably 23 to 24 years old, nearly six feet tall and apparently of strong build. He had black hair, a florid complexion and made a good appearance. He was cleanly dressed, wearing a gray suit, dark colored jacket and black soft hat. Ate before robbing The whole proceeding was rather unusual as the fellow did not make any attempt to conceal himself. William Foster and his wife were on duty in the restaurant at the time. The stranger came in and ordered a sandwich and coffee and seated himself between the two customers and remained quite a while. Night Policeman Parrott and Jack Guyton of the Coos Bay Times had tarried over their coffee discussing with Mr. Foster the excessive price of bacon and the high cost of living. Cleans the till The stranger finally got off the stool and walked toward the cash register, apparently to pay. Instead he pulled a .38 automatic and leveling it at Mr. Foster told him to hand over the money in the register. This was not noticed by the other two customers who were still talking. The fellow walked back and told Guyton to hand over what he had and leveled the revolver. The action was so unexpected that a line of argument was attempted but the robber did not seem inclined to discuss the details of the matter and with a jab of the revolver suggested there be no time wasted. Mr. Guyton explained that a very poor victim had been selected but the robber said he wanted what was available.

Need more fire equipment here Chief Davis asks council to provide for department Fire Chief J.W. Davis last evening asked the Marshfield city council to consider ordering additional equipment for the fire department. He said that he was bringing it up now because the recent fire had demonstrated it was needed. Among the needs he suggested were: Fitting up quarters in the city hall so that at least six men could sleep there and be available for immediate response to fire calls. Hood and ladder equipment and additional hose. Horse wagon, gas masks or smoke helmets and a tower. Mr. Davis said that he did not consider it advisable to go to the $4000 expense to mount the old fire engine on motor-driven apparatus. However, Mr. Davis thought that the council could provide in the new budget for some of the other needs or even consider issuing some of the bonds which the voters approved at a special election.

Curry County dances famous Chief amusement of people of that locality Events generally last most of the night and are enjoyed by the patrons GOLD BEACH — When it comes to dancing Curry county has the world beat. Dancing must have originated in Curry county. Baseball may be the great American game but in Curry dancing surely takes its place. The firemen’s hall at Marshfield is not in it compared to Curry county dances. The attendance in number may be greater in the cities but regardless of the numerical qualifications patrons of dances in this section surely enjoy themselves. Going good at twelve In the cities there are ordinances which require that dances close at 12 o’clock. No such nonsense in Curry county. By midnight down here the dances are just getting well under way and 3 a.m. is not regarded as late. Four o’clock as breaking up time is not unusual and in the rural districts daylight usually deadens the coal oil illumination before the music stops. Everybody has a good time. The young people never seem to tire of dancing and the music keeps up as long as anyone wants to stay and the boys go home and change clothes to do their milking or go about their work without a wink of sleep. Old-time fiddlers Some of the towns have very good orchestras but in the country districts the old-time fiddlers come into play and some of these old fellows can surely fiddle. They may not have the modern jazz but

for the old-time dance music they are right there.

Coquille masons lay corner stone Exercises held at county seat today Many from Marshfield, Bandon and Myrtle Point are in attendance at ceremony A large number of Masons went to Coquille from Coos Bay today to attend the exercises attending the laying of the corner stone of the new building which is being erected by Chadwick Lodge No. 68, A.F & A.M. of Coquille. Besides the members of the Blue Lodge the Knights Templar of Marshfield attended in uniform. Many others from Bandon and Myrtle Point were in attendance. Radio school to be started A school to teach radio and telegraphy will be started by L.L. Thomas, who is fitting a large room for the purpose over his store. A broadcasting radio set has been ordered. The school will be in charge of Mason Mears, formerly of Marshfield, who has wide experience. Mr. Mears began as operator on the steamer Redondo in 1911. He was on the flagship of the Pacific mail line between San Francisco and Panama. He was on a vessel running to the South Sea Islands and also on the Geo. W. Elder and a number of other vessels on the coast and going to the orient, and on a vessel running to France during the submarine warfare.

50 YEARS — 1972 Broadbent lass chosen 1972 Coos Fair Queen MYRTLE POINT — Rosemary Edwards, a poised and pretty 18-year-old of Broadbent was crowned 1972 Coos County Fair Queen Saturday night as part of the 16th annual Coos County Mounted Sheriff’s Posse Shodeo and Queen’s Coronation Ball. Two 16-year-old Bay Area girls were selected earlier by judges for the 1972 Fair Queen Court and given titles of 1972 Coos County Fair Princesses. Pledging “to make the Coos County Fair as well-known as it ought to be,” Queen Rosemary accepted her Queen’s Scepter from 1971 Fair Queen Robin Laird. Sandy Easley, Coos Bay, and Cheryl Seiwald, North Bend, were named to reign with Queen Rosemary over this year’s 57th annual Coos County Fair. Bridge artist pens nationwide comic strip Mary Worth takes shape, and life is breathed into her form in a secluded valley near Bridge, where drawing is done for the daily and weekly comic strip by that name. Mary Worth is the central character of

the strip, a matron who enters the troubled waters of other persons’ lives and helps resolve many perplexing programs. Ken Ernst, who is building a new home on Big Creek Road, is the artist who brings her to life at the direction of the writer, Allen Saunders, who lives nearly across the continent. CB-NB Athletics drop season opener LEWISTON, Ida. — If the season opener between Lewiston and Coos BayNorth Bend is any indication of what is in store for Northwest League fans this season, be prepared for the unexpected. Most anything may happen. This is exactly what took place Thursday night in Lewiston as the Broncos dealt visiting CB-NB an 11-5 set back in the league opener for both clubs. One Northwest League record was tied as CB-NB’s John Brownlee uncorked six wild pitches in 2 ½ innings to tie a record set by William Vandever of Medford in 1968 while pitching against Eugene. Two other bits of action — back-toback homeruns by Lewiston in the first inning and a triple play by CB-NB in the eighth — kept the 949 fans on the edge of their chairs during the wild and wooley contest.

20 YEARS — 2002 Looney finishes sixth in national decathlon Marshfield’s Ben Looney was unable to move up in the standings on Wednesday, finishing sixth in the junior nationals decathlon in Berkeley, Calif. Looney’s two-day total for the event was 6,326 points, a personal best by more than 200 points, but well below his goal of 6,700 points. Looney, 17, as among the youngest competitors, who could be up to 19 years old and included several college students. “I’m real proud of him,” said Hunter Fales, Looney’s coach with the Pre Track Club. “Several coaches there commented about the way he focused and the way he handled the competition for his first competition at this type of level. Certainly, this is a national-level competition and he handled it very, very well.” Looney finished third in the 1,500 with a time of 4:38.83, was fifth in both the high hurdles (16.57) and pole vault (12-9 ½) and took sixth in the javelin (146-9). These stories were found in the Marshfield Sun Printing Museum newspaper repository stored in Marshfield High School.

Wesley Bell Ringers visit Bandon

Contributed photos

Southern Coos Hospital names Leah Hyman as Clinical Employee of the Month Leah Hyman, Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center’s lead mammography technologist, knows how to make people feel at ease, often using her sense of humor. That’s almost required in a position where patients can sometimes feel vulnerable during an appointment. Leah’s patient-centered care is one reason she was chosen as SCHHC clinical Employee of the Month for May. Leah joined SCHHC in October 2017 in the hospital’s medical imaging department. She has held various positions as she received additional certifications. In addition to lead mammography technologist, Leah is also one of the radiology technologist IV staff members. “Leah consistently exhibits core values such as teamwork by coming together to help others in time of need, boosting morale during challenging times and providing compassionate,

patient-centered care,” stated her nomination. “She is always respectful and very responsive to patients’ needs. Leah shows such dedication to the Medical Imaging team by her day-to-day quality of work. She is a shining example of a great technologist offering the best care for our patients at SCHHC.” Leah is kind of an overachiever. She works two full-time jobs - three days at SCHHC and two-to-three days at Santiam Hospital near Albany, where she lives. She is also working on her master’s degree in educational psychology. At a previous job she worked as radiology program director, where she became interested in educational psychology. “I wanted to understand how people learn,” she said. “It really did help.” Leah graduated in 2007 with an associate’s degree in radiol-

ogy and earned her bachelor’s degree in 2008 in business management with an emphasis on radiographic science. She then worked at Whitman Hospital in Colfax, Wash., for four years, then decided to pursue her master’s degree. She has also taught human development as a teaching assistant at Washington State University. From there, she moved to Oregon and worked as a clinical coordinator at a college, then worked remotely for SCHHC before coming on site. “I like everything that goes along with the position, not just mammography, but working on policy and doing numbers – a whole bunch of things that feed into it that keep me interested and engaged,” Leah said. “I enjoy the fact that it’s a smaller hospital where there is less red tape when I need to talk to a doctor,” she added. “I work with Dr. (Philip) Keizer, who I

really like.” Leah also added that medical imaging department manager Deb Backman is “an amazing person to work with. There’s a lot of communication back and forth to get things accomplished.” “It’s a good place. A really good place,” she said of SCHHC. Leah grew up in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and moved to the United States to be with her partner of now 20 years, Victoria, who she met at WSU when Victoria was a graduate student working on her PhD in Sociology. In her spare time, Leah and Victoria do animal rescue, “but we fail every time because we keep the animals,” Leah said. They have four dogs, one cat and three birds. “Our latest dog rescue was a bulldog named after my mother Lucy.” She said. Leah said their most relaxing moments are spent watching TV or movies. They are currently

watching “Shining Girls.” “We have every streaming service,” she said. Leah is also a Star Wars and Star Trek fan and loves the royals, recently enjoying Queen Elizabeth II’s Jubilee celebrations. “It’s a big part of Canada so a big part of me and means a lot,” she said of the Queen.

Alicia Coffey named Non-Clinical Employee of the Month at SCHHC Patient health records are not something people usually think about – until they need them. Then, there’s a team of employees at Southern Coos Hospital & Health Center ready to help. One of those people is Alicia Coffey, who works as a health information management specialist II. Alicia was chosen as the SCHHC non-clinical Employee of the Month for May. Alicia joined the HIM department in December 2017 as a health information technician. Since then, she has progressed her knowledge and positions in the department. In December 2020, she was promoted to HIM specialist I, then in September 2021, promoted to her current position. “Alicia is the heart of our HIM team,” stated her nomination. “She is patient, kind and always willing to teach others. When the HIM department is shortstaffed, Alicia rises to the occasion and consistently chooses to take on more, en-

suring that patient care is always first and that each employee and/or patient feels that they received professional, quality assistance at SCHHC.” In addition, Alicia is knowledgeable about processes, workflows and best practices, sharing her knowledge when asked as well as providing input for changes to update workflow practices for more efficiency. “Alicia is the calm in the storm, always polite, a great problem-solver. She is a valuable asset to our HIM team,” the nomination concluded. Some of Alicia’s duties include discharge analysis (making sure all the records that need to be in a patient’s file are there, signed and dated), working with the coding team to make sure everything is listed on a patient’s chart so the hospital can bill correctly, and processing provider and patient requests for records, among other duties.

“We tend to get a lot of things dropped on our desks that no one else knows what to do with,” Alicia said of her job. “I like that aspect of it because it requires investigation. I also like talking to patients.” “I like the people I work with,” she added. Alicia is originally from Portland and has lived on the South Coast for about 25 years. Her family moved to the Port Orford area when she was a teenager and she graduated from Pacific High School. Her previous jobs include working at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort for 13 years and following that at Umpqua Bank in Port Orford before it closed. Alicia has a significant other who works as a commercial fisherman out of Port Orford and a 14-year-old son, Tirian, who was just promoted from eighth grade to high school, then immediately left on a much-anticipated trip to Washington, D.C. In her spare time, Alicia likes to be

outdoors – camping, hiking and going to the beach. She also enjoys road trips and is looking forward to camping in the Redwoods over Labor Day.

FRIDAY, JUNE 24, 2022 |

AS I SEE IT: Cranberry harvest By MARY SCHAMEHORN gift shop, had been sold The cranberry industry has been an important part of Bandon's economy for many years, not only for the growers but for once providing hundreds of seasonal jobs during the harvest. An article on the front page of the Oct. 5, 1939, Western World tells that story. The subhead reads: "Between 400 and 500 pickers ready but rains causing delay." "The cranberry harvest is now in full swing, or at least it will be as soon as the weather man makes up his mind to shut off his overhead sprinkling system. It is estimated between 400 and 500 pickers will be employed in the flush of the season. The glades near the bogs are dotted with tents and trailer houses harboring pickers who have come from interior points to take part in the harvest. Some of these have followed the various fruit harvests and have contemplated making more money per day on cranberry picking than on any of the other harvests this fall. "Picking at the L.M. Kranick bog has been practically completed, the crop being up to expectations although about 20 percent less than last year. The crop last year was characterized as a 'bumper' crop and two such fortunes as a rule don't follow each other. Harvesting on some of the smaller bogs has also been completed, while on most of the larger bogs, it has just begun. "Generally the berries so far this season have not been 'up to color,' ...as the result of warm weather, according to one grower, who said it takes cool nights at the finishing season to put the desired touch of color on the cheeks of the berries. "Nearly all the growers are members of the Coos Cranberry Cooperative, which organization has contracted to sell the entire crop through the Safeway Stores distribution agency this year." The second picture I am sharing is the launching of the Daisy, a steam propelled ship built in the J.H. Price shipyard in Bandon. The Daisy was launched April 30, 1908, at noon and christened by Miss Erma Crane (who was my grandmother's best friend and who we knew as Auntie Erma). The schools were closed and residents came from the entire area to witness the launching, according to Ernie Osborne in his book "Wooden Ships and Master Craftsmen." While under the ownership of a California firm, Hammond Lumber Company, the Daisy had its third name change, this time it was renamed Redwood. In the Sept. 21, 1939, Western World, I found an article headlined "Bandon-Built Boat Blows Up at Sea." "News dispatches Tuesday told of the S.S. Redwood, operating between Eureka and southern California points, suffering an explosion and burning at sea a few miles south of Eureka. "She was waiting for the fog to lift to enter the Humboldt harbor when a fire was discovered among the 400-odd ton of freight. Soon an explosion occurred and the crew of 18 took to life boats when the vessel started burning and the pumps were unable to stem the flames." I chose the third photo to honor a man, Bob Elliott, who was in business over 50 years ago as owner of Bob's Shell Service and who recently celebrated his 90th birthday. The picture was taken in 1973. A full page ad in the 1966 Western World heralded the opening of Elliott's new Shell station, with a July 15-16 weekend celebration. Service station attendants were Jim Knox, Joe Hiteshew and George MacDonald. I have other photos of the renovations taking place in 1979, as the property, then owned by Charlie Redmon and used as a myrtlewood

to Bob Vining and his family, who remodeled the building for a restaurant/ coffee shop, later named the Station Restaurant. Today, the Station Restaurant, located on the corner of Fillmore and Highway 101, is owned and operated by Jamie Gallagher, who recently increased her hours to be open for dinner five nights a week. --------------------------------The Port of Bandon is aware of false information spreading through the community about the Port of Bandon Farmers Market dissolving or not continuing past the 2022 season. A spokesman said "we would like to clarify that these rumors are false. The Port did decide to make changes to the market organization this season. The former market manager retired, and the Port appointed a new manager. The hours to the market were changed to conform with City permit requirements, and size of the market was reduced to help alleviate the heavy parking constraints in the Old Town area. These changes do not affect the continuation of the market or the location. The Port has never stated that the Farmers Market would not continue in the Bandon Fisheries building. At this time the Port anticipates there will be a 2023 market held in the Bandon Fisheries Building. There is a group comprised of some of the current and previous vendors who are in the process of self-organizing to establish a NEW market of their own for the Bandon area. This market is not associated with the Port of Bandon and would not necessarily replace the Port of Bandon's Farmers Market. All questions, comments and concerns can be directed to the Market Manager at info@portofbandon.com. --------------------------------Long-time Bandon resident Jean (Mrs. Clayton) Duval died June 7 at the age of 95 in Coos Bay. She and Clayton had 11 children, including nine who survive: Charles, David, Ron, Larry, Douglas, Diane, Rich, Roger, Christina and a son-in-law, Patrick Strain. Also surviving are a sister, Doris Erickson and a brother, Ed McMahon. Memorial services will be held at 10 a.m. Friday, July 8, at Holy Trinity Catholic Church. I learned this week that long-time Coos County attorney Thomas F. Burke of Coquille had died in May at the age of 80. He practiced in his office across from the courthouse in Coquille for many year before opening an office in Pony Village Mall. Burke was a member of Bandon Masonic Lodge No. 130 AF&AM. --------------------------------Several members of the Bandon City Council, Peter Braun and Geri Procetto, along with County Commissioner John Sweet, joined me at the flag retirement ceremony on Flag Day 2022, sponsored by American Legion Post 26, Veterans of Foreign

Wars Frank C. High Medal of Honor Post 3440 and Auxiliary and the Bandon Veterans Honor Guard, and held in the cemetery at the VFW Hall. A number of dignitaries were there from other posts as well as members of the local post. There was an impressive ceremonial presentation of the flag that was being retired, accompanied by a narrative by Gary Sands of what it represented. After the Pledge of Allegiance, the old flag was properly disposed of by burning, and the new flag was presented and raised. It was a moving ceremony. --------------------------------Realizing how important the transient occupancy tax (TOT) is to the financial health of the City of Bandon, the council recently approved going to the voters at a special election Aug. 23 to raise the TOT from 6 cents to 9.5, which would bring Bandon in line with neighboring tourist communities including Coos Bay, North Bend and the Coquille Indian Tribe, all at 9.5 percent. The TOT is 10 percent in both Seaside and Tillamook. An increase to 9.5 percent would yield an additional $400,000 to $500,000 per year for Bandon. By law 70 percent of those additional funds must be devoted to tourism promotion and tourism related facilities. Only 30 percent of the new money can go to general government purposes. The current 6 percent tax does not come under the state 70-30 restrictions that came about after Bandon first instituted its TOT many years ago. Of the money collected with the 6 percent, 20.7 percent goes to the Chamber of Commerce. It is important to point out that because of Bandon's very low property tax (.46 cents a thousand), the city receives only about $200,000 in property tax revenue, but more than $600,000 in TOT dollars... none of which is paid by our local residents. This is just one opportunity for our visitors to help defray the costs to maintain tourist facilities, including the tourist information center. --------------------------------It's beginning to get very busy in town as visitors come to enjoy what we have all year around. And sometimes they see things that we don't see because we are so used it. I would urge all of us to do what we can to clean up our properties, especially the rights of way in front of our homes and businesses, many of which could use a weed eater or a lawn mower. The amount of rainfall we've had this spring could account for the lush green grass, but it will soon turn brown and it needs to be cut... not only for aesthetics but for fire safety. I'm thanking you in advance .... --------------------------------Speaking of weather, May 2022 was the wettest May in 18 years, with 6.53 inches of rain, second only to May 2005 when we recorded 8.45 inches. Last May we had less than an inch (0.83) of rain.

I mentioned in my column that he had celebrated his 100th birthday. He said both he and his wife, Ruth, who is in her late 90s, are

doing OK, and "still have all our marbles." He was my civics teacher in 1957, and we've kept in contact all these years.

DeFazio delivers letter to White House requesting federal funding for Pacific Coast intermodal port in Coos Bay Last week, Representative Peter DeFazio (OR-04) personally delivered a bipartisan, bicameral letter to President Biden requesting that federal funds from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) be allocated towards a proposal to create a major new west coast container port in Coos Bay. The project presents a tremendous opportunity to transform the West Coast port infrastructure and increase American competitiveness in the global economy. “We write in strong bipartisan and bicameral support of the federal funding request for the Pacific Coast Intermodal Port, located at the Port of Coos Bay, Oregon. As our nation faces serious supply chain disruptions, this project offers a blinding light at the end of the tunnel. Establishing a container port in Coos Bay would immediately increase West Coast port capacity by up to 10 percent, create an estimated 7,000 jobs, and, as the West Coast’s first ship-to-rail ecoport, dramatically lower greenhouse gas emissions. Put simply, this project meets the moment,” said the Members of Congress. As chair of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, DeFazio has fought for legislation to bolster resiliency and strengthen port investment. Chair DeFazio also successfully unlocked funding to ensure ports receive the resources they need for the dredging and maintenance that is key to the safety and economic vitality of Oregon’s coastal ports. Co-signing the letter with DeFazio are Sen. Wyden (D-OR), Sen. Merkley (D-OR), Rep. Sam Graves (MO-06), Rep. Blume-

nauer (OR-03), Rep. Bonamici (OR-01), Rep. Schrader (OR05), Rep. Bentz (OR-02), Rep. Herrera Beutler (WA-03), Rep. McMorris Rodgers (WA-05), Rep. Simpson (ID-02), Rep. Newhouse (WA-04), Rep. LaMalfa (CA-01), and Rep. Payne (NJ-10). The full text of the letter follows below: Dear President Biden, We write in strong bipartisan and bicameral support of the federal funding request for the Pacific Coast Intermodal Port, located at the Port of Coos Bay, Oregon. As our nation faces serious supply chain disruptions, this project offers a blinding light at the end of the tunnel. Establishing a container port in Coos Bay would immediately increase West Coast port capacity by up to 10 percent, create an estimated 7,000 jobs, and, as the West Coast’s first ship-to-rail ecoport, dramatically lower greenhouse gas emissions. Put simply, this project meets the moment. The Pacific Coast Intermodal Port (PCIP) grant application has been submitted through the Multimodal Project Discretionary Grant (MPDG) combined application process, which includes the National Infrastructure Project Assistance program (MEGA), the Nationally Significant Multimodal Freight and Highways Projects grants program (INFRA) and the Rural Surface Transportation Grant program (RURAL). We stress that this project is a tremendous opportunity for federal funding, with the ability to transform West Coast port infrastructure and increase American competitiveness in the global economy. Furthermore, the INFRA, MEGA and

RURAL programs were designed for projects like the Pacific Coast Intermodal Port project, which are large and nationally significant. The significant disruptions to the U.S. supply chain have exposed longstanding challenges to our capacity to ship American goods around the globe, particularly from our western ports. The effects have been felt across the country, and have caused problems for imports and exports alike, including the export of agriculture and forest products. Congestion at our nation’s ports is partly to blame, and serious investment and increased capacity are needed to both recover and meet future demand. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) includes tens of billions of dollars that can be utilized for modernizing our nation’s port infrastructure. As your administration works to identify investments that will have both immediate and longterm impact, we encourage you to invest in our America's future by dedicating significant funding to projects that can make a lasting difference, like the Pacific Coast Intermodal Port. The Port of Coos Bay has partnered with Northpoint Development, the largest private developer in the U.S. This public-private partnership provides resources necessary to both match the federal investment and provide assurances of a full project buildout. The Port of Coos Bay has been underutilized for decades, despite an existing federal channel that is regularly maintained by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), a rail line that connects to the Class I rail system, and hundreds of acres of

undeveloped industrial land with quick and easy access to open ocean and international markets in Asia and beyond. While the opportunity to expand port capacity in Coos Bay surpasses all other options, upgrades to existing infrastructure are needed to capitalize on this location, including deepening and widening the federal channel and modernizing the rail line. The INFRA, MEGA and RURAL programs are intended to support multi-modal, multi-jurisdictional projects of regional or national significance, and White House guidance stipulates that MEGA funding in particular is intended for critical large projects that would otherwise be unachievable without assistance. Establishing a container port in Coos Bay would immediately increase West Coast port capacity by up to 10 percent, including imports into the U.S. and exports of agriculture and forest products to international markets. There is simply no other place on the West Coast where that level of additional capacity can be achieved. Furthermore, establishing a worldclass port in Coos Bay will create approximately 7,000 jobs: 3,000 direct construction jobs and, once operating, an additional 4,000 direct permanent, full-time family-wage jobs in the greater Coos Bay and Eugene areas. The Port has the ability to generate tax revenue and economically energize a region of the country that has fought to remain prosperous in the face of steep timber revenue decline in recent decades. Moreover, the Coos Bay intermodal facility

will have a dramatic national impact, allowing for increased trade with foreign partners and a surge of activity across the nation’s freight rail network. This project also has significant environmental benefits. While other ports in the U.S. will continue to rely heavily on truck transportation, the Coos Bay intermodal facility will be the first ship-to-rail port facility on the West Coast, translating to additional port capacity. Additionally, green electricity produced by renewable energy sources will facilitate the use of electric-powered cargo handling equipment, vehicle charging and on-shore power. The port will be fitted with cold ironing at the berth that will power ships rather than running diesel engines offshore. All of this will result in a 90 percent improved power efficiency and at least a 50 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The IIJA provides the funding necessary for your administration to position the entire West Coast to be more successful for generations to come. The Pacific Coast Intermodal Port is key to that success. We hope that you will embrace this opportunity to make critical investments at the Port of Coos Bay that will prime our nation for future growth. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, CC: Pete Buttigieg, Secretary of Department of Transportation Shalanda Young, Director of White House Office of Management and Budget Retired General Stephen Lyons, Port Envoy to Supply Chain Disruptions Task Force Mitch Landrieu, White House Senior Advisor and Infrastructure Coordinator.

Millington, Sumner fire districts to merge The challenges facing the American fire service are at an all time high and climbing. Standards for service have increased, the need for all hazard approaches have grown, call volumes have increased, challenges in staffing, and the need for continued required training

now greet the fire service. Because of these challenges, the board of directors for Millington and Sumner Rural Fire Protection Districts have held several public meetings to discuss combining services. On June 20, the boards approved the consolidation

of the two departments via an Inter-governmental agreement until a public vote can take place. The consolidated fire authority will be known as Central Coos Fire & Rescue. This consolidation is based on eliminating the duplication of efforts in all

Fire season begins June 24 The Coos Forest Protective Association announced Tuesday that fire season will officially begin at 12:01 a.m. Friday, June 24. The start of fire season activates restrictions for both public and industrial forest use on all public, private, county, state, and Bureau of Land Management lands within CFPA’s District boundaries. The start of fire season means the end of unregulated, outside burning for rural Coos, Curry and western Douglas counties. The outside burning of debris piles and the use of burn barrels will be prohibited until fire season is terminated. Residents living within an incorporated city need to contact their local fire department for burning restrictions and permit details. Under Oregon law, the use of tracer ammunition and exploding targets is prohibited during fire season,

and the use of sky lanterns is prohibited year round. Regulated use restrictions will also be implemented, putting restrictions on public activities based on daily fire danger levels for specific activities. Industrial fire regulations will also go into effect. In-

dustrial Fire Precaution Level (IFPL) 1 prohibits smoking while working on or traveling through an industrial operation. Specified fire tools and suppression equipment must be maintained on all operations. A fire watch is also required on all industrial operation sites.

program areas, including personnel at all levels. A consolidated fire district will likely create efficiencies and effectiveness of fire protection and EMS throughout the communities allowing CCF&R to provide better fire and EMS services. CCF&R will cover 31

square miles of Coos County with a combined personnel roster of 38 members. There will be four fire stations located throughout the districts where equipment to respond to emergencies will be located. Members of both departments are proud of their histories of

serving the public in their respective districts. As such, traditional Millington and Sumner Fire District boundaries will continue to maintain their identities by retaining their names on station locations. This change is scheduled to take effect July 1.

Timbers from 17th century vessel recovered at Oregon coast By JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net

Researchers believe they have found timbers from a 300-year old Spanish galleon along Oregon's north coast, according to the National Geographic. "The extraordinarily rare hull remains were removed from sea caves near Manzanita earlier this week in a risky emergency recovery mission involving archaeologists, law enforcement personnel, and search-and-rescue teams from multiple state and local agencies," National Geographic states in an online article. The discovery was first made in 2019 after a beachgoer spotted the remains, but the pandemic and permitting requirements slowed retrieval of the timbers. "The dozen timbers are believed to be pieces of the Santo Cristo de Burgos, a Spanish galleon that was sailing from the Philippines to Mexico in 1693 when it veered off course and vanished, most likely wrecking on what’s now Oregon’s coast. Its cargo included costly Chinese silk, porcelain, and blocks of beeswax for making candles," the National Geographic online report states. On June 14, state geologists traveled to the site to begin the recovery. Nehalem Bay Fire & Rescue

(NBFR) Chief Chris Beswick said he and a NBFR crew of four assisted state geologists in retrieving the timbers. "There are a couple of caves where some artifacts had washed up, primary the wood pieces," he said. "The main piece that we brought in looks like a main timber from the ship. It is about 6-feet long. It was very heavy." Beswick said his crew using jet skis navigated the large timber from the cave through the water to the beach, about 200feet, then carried it to a waiting trailer on shore. "We also helped bring in several other smaller pieces of wood," he said. "The state geologist were very excited about them." Beswick said the timber recovery was a unique experience and a first-time event for him and the fire crew. "I never expected in my career as a firefighter that I would be recovering artifacts from a ship wreck," he said. National Geographic reports that the timbers are now at the Columbia Maritime Museum to be documented and conserved. Oregon State Parks spokesman Chris Havel said this can be a significant discovery that underscores the importance of Oregon's history.

"Hands down, this is an exciting development," Havel said. "It may well be true that it wouldn’t have been possible if the ocean shore wasn’t protected by the 1967 Beach Bill, so thank Os West and Tom McCall and all the people who worked in the past to make the ocean shore a public place, and who work dayin and day-out right now to keep protecting it. We look forward to learning what researchers can tell us about the recovered timbers, so we can share that news with the people who visit.” According to Havel, state parks protect lands that tell many human stories, starting with the tribes that have lived here for thousands of years, right up to today. "It’s important to recognize the full breadth and depth of that experience and implore everyone to do their part to protect these places," he said. "As a visitor, that means respecting each other and any signs or warnings you may see and refraining from searching for artifacts or taking anything from the park other than the memories of a fun, safe visit. It’s not just the law, it’s the right thing to do." Havel urges anyone visiting the state parks who may find a suspected cultural resource, either on the beach or the

Bastendorff Beach cove full of surprises By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World

It’s been a while since I’ve been out exploring someplace new, but over Father’s Day weekend, my wife insisted I go with her and the kids to Bastendorff Beach to see “The Cove.” Now, I’ve been to Bastendorff Beach many times and even wrote about it here once, but every time I went, I got out of the car and went to the right, toward the jetty. To the left was always off limits to me because, to be honest, I didn’t want to walk through the water flowing into the ocean. But my wife insisted, so I joined the family and waded through to see this mysterious cove. We went during extremely low tide, always my favorite time to visit any beach. After walking about half a mile, we found the cove, and, to be honest, it’s a good name for the spot. During low tide, it is easy to access. When the tide is higher, you have climb over some rocks to get in. When you reach the cove, it’s like a hidden gem. Tucked away behind rocks on both sides, there’s a little paradise perfect for swimming and exploring. The water coming into the cove is well beyond the point of waves breaking, so the water is smooth and calm. And for some reason that I don’t fully understand, it is much warmer. My two youngest kids jumped right in and swam for almost an hour. My wife and I kept an eye on them while looking around. And the area was full of surprises. The first thing I saw when I reached the rocks protecting the cove was a single, large Dungeness crab. Having never seen a full-size one before, my wife and I decided to catch it. And, it let us. We walked right up to it in the water, used a bucket my kids had and picked it up. Only then could we see why it was so easy. The large crab was actually mating with a smaller female, so he was in no hurry to let go. We took a couple of pictures and put both crabs back in the water, where they continued what they were doing. On the far side of the rock, there were even more surprises.

Photos by David Rupkalvis/The World

A group of colorful starfish cling to a rock at a cove we explored on Bastendorff Beach. Below, while at the beach we saw a Dungeness crab, and when we caught the crab it turned out to be a pair. Like many areas around here, the rock was lined with life, even after the water receded. But the one I enjoyed the most, and always enjoy, were the starfish. Orange and purple starfish clung to the rock, only exposed us to the low tide. Then we saw something else in the water. At first, I had no idea what it was, but as the water rolled in, these little creatures moved in with the water and immediately began digging into the sand. My wife immediately said, “Oh, sand fleas.” Sure enough, she was right. Hundreds and hundreds of sand fleas or mole crabs were seemingly everywhere. We caught a bunch just to see what the heck they were and to watch them disappear into the sand as soon as we let them go. It didn’t take long before more than an hour had passed and the tide was starting to rise, so we called it a day. But I will go back. And next time, I won’t wear my good shoes.

Rescued dogs from suspected puppy mill arrive in Oregon STAFF REPORT Dozens of French bulldogs and other bulldog mix breeds from a suspected puppy mill have been transferred to Oregon Humane Society (OHS), Panda Paws Rescue and several other shelters and rescues in Northern California, Oregon, and Washington. The dogs were discovered in a home in Stanislaus County, California on May 22 when a search warrant was being served during another criminal investigation. More than 150 dogs were found living in cramped crates, filled with waste, and many needed medical attention, according to a release from OHS. The staff at Stanislaus Animal

Services Agency cared for the dogs until they were legally able to be transferred. Rescue groups from around the region mobilized quickly to help move the dogs out to begin a new life. OHS’ Second Chance vehicle hit the road early Sunday morning, June 11 and arrived back in Portland Monday night, June 13 carrying more than 30 of the dogs. “We are so grateful to Stanislaus Animal Services Agency for their work on this case, and to all the other rescues and shelters who have stepped up to help,” says OHS Chief Operating Officer Brian August said. “These dogs will get great care at OHS

The Chamber Minute: Today’s kids are fine Another school year has ended in these times when promoting education has been a challenge for teachers, parents and children. Can you imagine having to face all the needed changes at school to simply be able to learn? Kids are resilient. One rainy Saturday afternoon my wife was standing in line at a local grocery store with three little, blonde haired, blue lipped girls behind her. They were very concerned about how much their gro-

ceries were going to cost. They had two packs of hot dogs and a half gallon of chocolate mint ice cream. They continued to ask the checker how much this would be. He said, “Girls, I believe you’ll get eighteen cents back.” My wife asked, “Girls, are you having a party?” “Nope,” replied the oldest. “Our mom’s been sick so we decided to make her supper. We’ll have hot dogs and ice cream.” They had spent the after-

noon washing windows and picking up cans to pay for their dinner. Despite what you read or hear, there is nothing wrong with the basic fiber of today’s kids. It’s our responsibility to help that spirit grow and blossom. We do that by providing them guidance. They face many more pathways in life than we did and we need to help them understand where each path leads. We can spur our children’s growth by

providing an example, an example of service. When we volunteer in whatever capacity we chose to serve, it shows them that caring for others is important, simply because it’s the right thing to do. Also we can love them. As they grow up they then will return that love to their families and community. We are blessed to live in this place at this time. We all have different talents which, when used, make this an even better place.

I invite you to join your friends and neighbors at the Chamber working the many opportunities that will continue to make this the best place to live and grow a future. Remember our business is helping your business. And like us on Facebook. (Timm Slater is executive director of the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce. For more information on your Chamber, email timmslater@oregonsbayarea.org.)

and begin a new chapter in their lives as beloved pets.” August said It may take up to several months for some of the dogs to be ready for adoption. Most of the dogs need medical care and will need time in a foster home to recover and learn how to be a pet. The dogs are currently in foster homes and not at OHS’ shelter on NE Columbia in Portland. Updates on the dog’s adoption status at OHS will be posted on www. oregonhumane.org. It is important to keep in mind that these dogs may have ongoing special needs given their history, according the release. OHS has a Humane Law Enforcement division that investigates reports of animal cruelty and neglect throughout the state. If you suspect and animal is being abused or suffering from neglect, call 503- 802-6707 or submit a tip online.

Illegal marijuana Car lovers show off in Lakeside sites eradicated in Douglas County Over the course of the past week, the Douglas Interagency Narcotics Team (DINT) has addressed several illegal marijuana sites in Douglas County. In total, DINT has eradicated illegal marijuana from 5 sites, and made several arrests. DINT eradicated two sites on Raleigh Drive, outside of Winston. In the 600 block of Raleigh Drive, DINT located a property that had 18 greenhouses containing illegal marijuana plants. DINT eradicated 3,832 marijuana plants from the property, and seized several other items of evidence of criminal activity. In this case, DINT arrested 25-year-old Jesus Manuel Martinez-Munguia, and 42-year-old Ezequiel Martinez-Garcia, both lodged at the Douglas County Jail. In the 500 block of Raleigh Drive, DINT detectives located another illegal marijuana grow operation consisting of approximately 1,330 marijuana plants. In this case, detectives arrested the property owner, 43 year old Jackie Willis, who was lodged at the Douglas County Jail. Detectives located another illegal marijuana growing operation in the 1600 block of Weaver Road, Myrtle Creek. In this case, detectives eradicated 757 marijuana plants, and approximately 311 pounds of processed marijuana. Detectives discovered the suspects had been diverting large amounts of water from the adjacent BLM land. They discovered an area on the BLM land where a creek had been impounded to collect water, and that water was run through pipes a great distance to the marijuana growing operation. Detectives also

seized a Bushmaster AR-15 rifle from the residence. A check of the serial number revealed the rifle had been reported stolen out of San Joaquin County, California. 35 year-old Arturo Perez-Aguilar was arrested and lodged at the Douglas County Jail. Detectives eradicated approximately 1,765 plants from a location in the 1200 block of N. Old Pacific Hwy. in Myrtle Creek. Again, all of these plants were illegal marijuana. At a residence in the 700 block of Buckhorn Road, Roseburg, detectives located and eradicated 1,103 illegal marijuana plants. In many of these cases, the investigations are continuing and more arrests are anticipated. Southern Oregon has been inundated with large scale illegal marijuana grows during the last couple of years, including Douglas County. The scale of the operations is unlike anything seen before and they are destructive to communities. The operations are most often run and controlled by multinational criminal organizations with only profit in mind. They pay no regard to local resources, rules, laws or ethics. They often do vast amounts of damage to natural resources, and damage streams and rivers by dumping garbage, toxic chemicals (fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides) and human feces. Water diversion is another concern as they often illegally take water from wells and rivers. It is common to see them illegally damming small streams to impound water for their own use. Douglas County is committed to pushing back against these illegal activities and restoring its long held standards.

With warm weather here, Lakeside has become a city on the go with a variety of activities for tourists and local residents alike. Last weekend, Lakeside hosted a car show that attracted antique cars from the region. Car lovers moved around Lakeside to get a close look at their favorite vehicles.
