Friends, family help start county’s first brewpub It happens all the time: Families gather around the table during the holidays and get to talking – sometimes saving the world’s problems, other times coming up with can’t-miss get-rich-quick schemes. Chances are you’ve been a part of one of these conversations. Chances are, for most people anyway, you haven’t followed through on what came up in the discussion. With the help of countless friends and family in the community, one local family is doing just that. On Thanksgiving in 2012, Kelly and Trent Dolyniuk were enjoying their Turkey Day with their daughter Sam and her husband Ed Rosenlund. The conversation turned to creating a brewery in Columbia County. Fast-forward 18 months and the foursome will officially open the tasting room at Columbia County Brewing on May 16. Each of the four owns 25 percent of the company and each one has assigned tasks: Kelly runs the books, Trent handles sales, Sam’s in charge of marketing and Ed is the brewer – or Production Czar. Ed had spent several years brewing beer at home before. A few weeks after their Thanksgiving conversation, he started jotting down the recipes that would eventually become Columbia County Brewing’s first four beers: Hard Hat IPA, Westy Wheat, Irish Red and Aldern. The first three of those choices, Ed says, are “straight down the middle beers.” The Aldern, however, is different. It’s a smoked lager with alder-smoked barley. “There’s only a few smoked beers out there. See BREWPUB, Page A2

Facing staff layoffs and closing the jail, Sheriff Jeff Dickerson contemplates what life would be like, should the jail levy fail.
“It has been a humbling experience” BY DON PATTERSON dpatterson@countrymedia.net
“It’s been a humbling experience,” Columbia County Sheriff Jeff Dickerson told citizens who attended a forum on the upcoming jail-operating levy, May 7. The St. Helens City Council hosted the forum at city hall, where several local officials provided information or advocated for a yes vote on the upcoming election. Dickerson told the audience he was working on a plan to close the jail if the levy is defeated on May 20. Those plans, he said, include transporting prisoners to Polk County and maintaining the facility after the prisoners have been transferred or released. County Commissioner
Henry Heimuller, who spoke after Dickerson, said even closing three or four other county departments would not save enough money to keep the jail going. He also promised to keep the jail facility “well maintained, oiled up and ready to go,” should the county find additional funding in the future. Heimuller also assured the audience the county would “follow the will of the people.” “There are a lot of eyes on Columbia County right now,” St. Helens Police Chief, Terry Moss told those in attendance. Five counties in Oregon are going through a similar situation, Moss said. The Oregon State Police had absorbed some of the law enforcement duties local agencies could no longer do, but that the head of OSP did not have an answer
should all five counties “go down at the same time.” Moss expressed his concern, should the jail close, “People are not going to be held accountable, not going to be sanctioned, and it will be left for us to deal with.” St. Helens resident, Brady Preheim, took issue with those comments. He questioned some of the dire predictions and the costs the sheriff and county officials quoted to run the jail. He also disputed the value of renting beds to the federal government, saying to the council, “I don’t want to be lied to, I want to be told the truth.” “Multnomah County is hoping they’ll get our guys,” Dickerson said, referring to the Federal bed rentals Columbia County gets. Dickerson also noted the number of Federal pris-
oners had gone up, because we have such a low rate. The Federal Government pays Columbia County $78 per night, a rate that has not changed since 2009 and a rate far below the $128 Multnomah County gets. Dickerson countered that argument, saying our costs to run the jail are lower. City Councilor, Doug Morten, asked Sheriff Dickerson if the county could house prisoners from other counties that are struggling. Dickerson replied most of those counties were in southern Oregon and too far away to practically transport prisoners back and forth. For Dickerson, the situation is dire. “I’m worried about what I’m going to do May 21st. “What are we going to do right now?” The voters will decide May 20.
$11k raised for high school technology BY AMANDA FRINK amandaf@thechronicleonline.com
SCAPPOOSE — Classroom instruction is getting a boost in efficiency thanks to recent tech equipment purchases funded by the Scappoose Parents Association (SPA). For the English classes at Scappoose High School, the SPA provided $10,000 to purchase 25 tablets. According to SPA vicepresident Candy Cole, students can use the tablets
and their wireless keyboards for research, essays, quizzes, reading e-books, record their speeches, and to even print documents with a cloud printing option. SPA also provided $1,000 to the high school’s Future Business Leaders of America club to build three document cameras and two smart boards for Scappoose Middle School. A smart board is somewhat of a cross between an overhead projector and a large, touch See TECH, Page A3

ST. HELENS — In the final days leading up to the May 20 election, Columbia County Commissioners used their May 7 meeting as an opportunity to address misconceptions regarding operation of the county jail and the proposed levy to keep the jail open. Commissioner Tony Hyde addressed the allegations he has heard regarding how much it costs to operate the county jail. “You have a set cost, roughly $4.5 million for operation of the jail,” he stated. “If you have one inmate, and by the way, it takes the same amount of sheriff’s deputies to run that jail whether you have one inmate or are at full capacity at 250. If you have one inmate for the year, you take the $4.5 million and you divide that by 365 days, and that’s the cost for that one inmate. Pretty high.” He continued, “If you have 250 inmates, you divide $4.5 million by 250 and you divide that number by 365. And that’s a significantly different number than if you have one. So if you say it costs $97 a day, you’re not wrong. If you say it costs $40 a day, you’re not wrong. If you say it costs $3,000 a day, you’re not wrong. It’s only interpreted by the amount of inmates. But given that scenario, the more federal inmates that we put in the jail, the lower that fixed cost gets and the lower the cost for the inmates within the county that we have. That’s as simple as you can put it.” Hyde explained that when the U.S. Marshals audited the jail’s operation, it was determined that the facility’s operating costs are $78 per inmate per day and that is why the Marshal’s bed rental See JAIL, Page A3
Bystander’s action saves fisherman Quick reactions of a bystander, Rainier police officer and city employees saved a man from drowning on Friday. About 1:45 p.m., May 9 emergency personnel received a call there was a man in the Columbia River at Rainier Boat Launch. Authorities say a 72-yearold man was walking his boat up the ramp when he apparently fell in the water. When he emerged, he was clinging to the bow of his boat that was now adrift. A nearby fisherman cast his line and was able to snag the boat and keep it from drifting any farther. City of Rainier public works employees were able to improvise a makeshift floatation device by tying a rope to a water cooler. A Rainier police officer cast the device to the man in the water who was losing his grip on the boat from fatigue. Rescuers then pulled the man to the dock and safety. The man was in the water about 20 minutes. He was transported to the hospital with non-lifethreatening injuries.

BREWPUB: County’s first brewpub set to open for business in St. Helens From PAGE A1 We’re all biased toward smoke,” Ed said. “We tried to keep it tame.” The first try produced an overpowering smoky taste that has since been refined. In order to calm the flavor, they had to learn how to create their own alder charcoal. After transforming a few Lawrence Oil drums into charcoal cookers, they started making the charcoal and then the beer.

The desire to represent the whole county is clear in the company’s name. When one steps into the tasting room, the décor further shows CCB’s dedication to representing the hard-working folks of Columbia County. The room is illuminated through yellow hard hats. Wood chips adorn the walls. And, perhaps most importantly, they want their No. 1 product to be a representation of its clientele. “We really want it to be
to stock a variety of craft, small-batch whiskeys for people to sample. In addition, there will be a chalkboard-style food menu of rotating barbecue and pub-style food. Footlong hot dogs, brisket sandwiches, ribs and macaroni and cheese are some items that should populate the menu at various times. Trent said CCB will also stock any and all products made down the road at Ye Ol’ Grog Distillery. Without planning to yet, Ed has found himself giving brewery tours to several passersby who have noticed the building’s open door. These will continue as the company moves forward. With as much support as CCB has received from the community thus far, and given the chosen name, the group feels it owes it to the area to produce a high-quality product. “When we chose the name Columbia County Brewing, we set a higher bar. We have to have a beer that is acceptable by friends and neighbors,” Trent said. “We owe it to people to have beer that’s embraced by the community.” After nearly a year-and-ahalf of planning, the community will be able to begin embracing it this weekend, one pint at a time.
e really want it to be Columbia County’s beer” – Trent Dolyniuk
That makes Aldern a longer process than the other beers. It takes at least a day to make the charcoal, then an additional two to five hours of smoking the barley over the charcoal. “It’s three days prepping the grain before you hit the brewery,” Trent said. So far the results have been mixed. “It’s a love-it or hate-it beer,” Ed explained. Even though the CCB tasting room opens for the first time on May 16, Columbia County residents have been able to sample the local craft brew on tap at the Dockside and at Skinny’s growler fill station. The brewery held a small open house on May 10 and had nearly twice as many attendees as anticipated. The Hard Hat IPA was a clear favorite at the open house. As CCB grows from a nanobrewery into a microbrewery, the plan is to make Columbia County Brews available elsewhere throughout the county. (Currently Ed brews on a system that makes one full barrel [two kegs] at a time. In the near future, CCB will brew on a seven-barrel system [14 kegs]. As Sam puts it, “Right now we’re literally always brewing.”)
Columbia County’s beer,” Trent said. So far, the county’s residents have shown a want to take ownership. “We had a friend call and ask if they could make us picnic tables for our outdoor seating,” Sam said. “We’re only where we’re at because of the community support.” Nearly all of the parts are either handmade by the family or purchased from somewhere in Oregon, and more than likely in Columbia County. That includes the tasting room décor from Habitat for Humanity, the rolled steel for the tanks from SolaGen, and several pieces of brewery equipment from Pacific Stainless. “We’re not a rich Portland brewery – we’re doing it the Columbia County way,” Trent said. It’s a point of pride for the family to build their brewery with materials produced locally, rather than importing equipment from China like some breweries in the metropolitan area do. That means a lot of elbow grease from the company’s four creators. It helps that Ed is a pipefitter by trade. Not only has the group been hands-on in creating the brewery and tasting room – much of it from scratch – they’ll also be the ones behind the bar when

the tasting room is open. After the official opening on May 16, the location at 164 S. 15th St. in St. Helens will be open Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 4-9 p.m., although those hours are not
set in stone. Trent said the main group of employees “either has been a Dolyniuk or is married to one,” although Sam added there will be a handful of guest pourers making their way behind the
bar. Folks stopping by after work can expect to pay $4 for a pint. They’ll be able to taste flights of the different beers as well as whiskeys. Trent said the group plans
Columbia County Brewing’s Ed Rosenlund describes each of his four creations. Hard Hat IPA – “It’s a single hop, dry-hopped IPA. It’s not too out of control.” Westy Wheat – “Full American ingredient, oldstyle German yeast. It’s one you can have a few pints of after work and still do yardwork.” Irish Red – “A deep malty flavor.” Aldern – “Made with homemade alder-smoked barley. It tastes like sitting around a campfire.”

It’s that simple.” In other business, the board appointed Carol Brandt, Michael Carter, Woody Davis, Joyce Ervin, Earl Fisher, Jill Hult, Cynthia Jaeger, Jan Kenna, Robin Loper, Roland Migchielsen, Diana Nish, Holly Pennock, Pam Ruddell and Joan Youngbern to the Columbia County Commission on Children and Families.
Hyde also reported that area officials met with a company that is interested in siting a methanol plant at Port Westward. He said the “very encouraging project” would bring $2 billion in capital improvements, 200 high paying jobs at $90,000 per year, and 1,000 construction jobs for six years. The commissioners also read a document proclaiming May 18-24 as EMS Week.
Tyler Kehoe, of Metro West Ambulance, thanked the board for trusting them to serve the county and for the proclamation. Fisher said he appreciates EMS employees’ hard work and dedication. Hyde agreed, describing their services as “high quality.” Commissioner Henry Heimuller briefed the board on several meetings he had attended, including present-
ing jail levy information with the sheriff at St. Helens City Council meeting. Fisher expressed appreciation for the candidate forum that was held last month. He reported that changes being considered to improve safety and efficiency on Highway 30 at the Millard and Bennett intersections. He also noted that volunteer responders are needed for the Red Cross team in county.

screen computer. SHS junior and Future Business Leaders of America national officer Parker Snook says the smart boards are a great tool for classrooms because they allow teachers post classroom notes online easily, they can be used on any surface, and one can be used by more than one person at a time. “The teachers are very excited, because we don’t have any smart boards here and we are kind of hurting for technology,” said SMS Principal Pam Reynolds, who was grateful for the work done by SPA and Snook. Seventh grade math teacher DJ Crawford confirmed, “A lot of teachers are excited. We’ve been wanting smart boards for a while.” Crawford said he is looking forward to a simpler process for teachers to send class notes to students and parents. Reynolds is looking forward to see how teachers integrate the new tools into
classroom instruction. She also feels that the new tools will positively influence students’ academic success by fostering independence and putting students in charge of their own education. The timing couldn’t be better for SMS, as two of the school’s document cameras broke recently and Reynolds would be faced with finding funds in the budget in order to replace them. Earlier in the school year, SPA provided $3,000 to purchase an architecture software program for SHS. An educational foundation for the Scappoose School District, SPA is a 501c3 dedicated to raising supplemental educational funds for the Sauvie Island, Scappoose and Warren communities. Since its formation in 2003, the SPA has provided over $75,000 in technology, software, textbooks, filmmaking equipment, phone systems, a driver’s education vehicle, and other items. The organization has also provided over $100,000 for
in-district athletic and educational scholarships. SPA’s Rose Quarter fundraising group raises funds by operating concessions at the Rose Quarter, Memorial Coliseum and Portland International Raceway. SPA projects are funded through grants from the Autzen Foundation, Portland General Electric EVG Program, Figaro’s Pizza, donations through the Fred Meyer Rewards Program (use code 8852), and fundraisers such as the holiday bazaar in November, the SPA booth at Sauerkraut Festival and the Highway 30 Cruise-In held each June. The 11th annual Cruise-In will be held Saturday, June 14 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the SHS parking lot. The event will feature approximately 100 car, truck and motorcycle entries in 13 categories, music, food and raffles. The SPA is searching for new members, board members and endowment board members.

Letters No Connections. Just Contempt. I, for one, like Clatskanie. I like what our town is about, and what our community stands for. I am proud to have raised a family here. So it really bothers me when some Portland attorney moves to Columbia County barely three years ago, decides to run for judge, and insults our community! In an interview with the South County Spotlight (“Appointed Judge Draws Challengers in Three-Way Race” February 14, 2014), Jason Heym, candidate for the Columbia County Circuit Court, said “I just happen to be an excellent lawyer, and so I work at one of the best law firms in the state….My clients expect much more. The caliber of law is much higher, frankly. When people out in Columbia County have a very complicated case, they don’t run down to the local strip mall to hire their lawyer. They come to me.” Never mind that that’s incredibly conceited. It’s also highly condescending. Do we not have sophisticatedenough lawyers here? Are our professionals not smart enough to handle complex issues? Jason Heym, how are you going to be a good judge if you look down on all of our attorneys? How will any Columbia County Attorney be able to appear in front of you and feel that their client will be heard? Let’s get respectful elected officials, not those who are nasty while asking for our vote! Please join me in voting for Cathleen Callahan for circuit court judge. Shelli Brown Clatskanie, Oregon Candidate voting records As a Vet, the right to vote is one of things we have fought for
Speedbump
in this country. Voting is one of our most important civil liberties. It is interesting that Ms. Martwick’s political signs all have the word VOTE on them, because she herself cannot be bothered to vote. Since 1999, Oregon voters have been given 38 opportunities to vote. Ms. Martwick only voted 8 times in the last 15 years and not at all since 2008. That means that in the last 15 years, 38 ballots were sent to her and she could not be bothered to mail in her ballot. Voters in other states have challenging voter ID laws, bad weather and hours upon hours standing in line in order to cast their vote. Ms. Martwick simply has to, vote, stamp, and mail, it’s that easy and yet this is too much for her. Furthermore, public records show out of all the candidates, regardless of position running for election this May, the only candidate that has a worse voting record than Ms. Martwick is Jason Heym. These two are asking for your vote for circuit court judge, yet neither one can be bothered to vote. I for one will be looking at the records of each candidate; I will choose the candidate that has a proven track record in Columbia County and cares enough about our Country and our County to vote. Daniel Adams Rainier Why We Should Vote For The Jail Levy There are a number of reasons for all of us to support the jail levy request that is currently before us. Having a functioning jail facility will make our communities safer, it is good for economic development, it is the most cost effective way to deal with the criminal element in our communities, it is essential for other parts of the justice system, plus it helps maintain our property values,
But, most importantly it is good public policy. The county is in the midst of completing it’s budget for next year and it is being based on not having the jail in operation because there is money to operate it. Passing the levy will allow the jail to continue operations. A lack of trust by the electorate seems to be the biggest hurdle facing the levy. In an attempt to address that issue the Commissioners have created a citizens oversight committee to ensure that all funds collected for the jail will be spent only on the jail and nothing more. This levy is not about whether we like the Sheriff or the county Commissioners or any other elected government official, it is about keeping our community sage. If we do not like the Sheriff or one or all of the elected official we have the opportunity to get rid of them at election time. This levy is fundamental question of public policy that the community needs to decide. It is a straight forward question: Do the citizens of our county want people who rob, steal or beat their spouses to be kept off our streets and are the citizens willing to pay on average less than .50 cent a day to do that? With out a functioning jail who will be roaming our neighborhoods. Earl Fisher Columbia County resident and Commissioner. Support the jail levy A few years ago, actually many, I was seated in a sociology class at OSU and we were discussing criminal justice and some of the variables related to unlawful behaviors. In essence, we learned that there are really only two interventions which are effective in changing criminal behavior. The first is aging. Older people do not commit nearly as many crimes as younger
individuals. Of course, we do not have much control over this factor. The second is rapid and suitable consequences or punishment by the justice system. This we can impact. Forget about the numbers being tossed at us and the tired history lessons regarding the construction of the Columbia County facility. Without a jail to house these convicted criminals, we place ourselves, our friends, and our neighbors in jeopardy every day of the week and year. Without a jail, we will bear the consequences and they do not look good, regardless of the alternatives being suggested. Without a jail, we make
on the ballot. But Agnes Petersen knows the law, and as all the people that she has helped over the years know, a high-handed, bureaucratic, roadblock will not stop her.

Voters should support the jail levy Voters in Columbia County have one last opportunity to pass a levy funding day to day operations at the jail. After previous attempts failed, the Columbia County Commissioners said any further votes to fund the jail would need to come by way of citizen initiative. Apparently the commissioners have seen enough grassroots support to give the levy one final shot. Taxpayers should give the levy a yes vote. Consequences of failing to pass the levy are
dire. Without the levy, the Columbia County jail will likely close. Closing the jail would put the county in a position of renting beds somewhere else and transporting prisoners to another county for incarceration. That is only going to happen to the very worst of the worst. Commissioner Fisher estimates the county will only be able to rent “ten beds or a few more.” Burglars, smalltime drug traffickers, parole violators, shoplifters, and drunk drivers would likely see no incarceration when arrested. This is one decision we
don’t want to get wrong. Once closed, the jail would be far more expensive and difficult to re-open. The county will lose its contract to house federal prisoners. With no bed rental offsetting part of the operating cost, the county would foot the entire bill. The sheriff would also need to assemble and train a new staff. The cost to the county in lost economic opportunities shouldn’t be ignored either. Prospective employers considering a move here would find a county with crumbling infrastructure, no higher education campus, no hospital and now, no jail.
It’s easy to be skeptical when politicians and government bureaucrats threaten harsh consequences unless taxpayers cough up more money. Government doesn’t always spend our money in the best way it could, or should. And when it comes to allocating tax dollars, the safety of citizens should be Columbia County’s top priority. In this case, we don’t think those predictions are exaggerated. Closing the Columbia County jail would have a substantial and longterm negative impact on our safety, economic vitality and general well being. We urge voters to support the levy.

County hopefuls take campaign message to the public BY AMANDA FRINK amandaf@thechronicleonline.com
COLUMBIA COUNTY — As the remaining days wind down in anticipation for the May 20 election day, area candidates are knocking on their last few doorsteps and reflecting on their experiences over the past few months. County Commissioner #2 incumbent Henry Heimuller, along with his friends and family, has been out “pounding in signs” and meeting with people after work and on the weekends. “It’s time consuming on one hand,” he explained. “But oftentimes, that face to face meeting is how people get to understand an issue.” “For the most part, people have been very gracious and very open,” said Heimuller, who was appreciative of citizens’ patience and tolerance during his campaign. “They are concerned about the post-recession time, job growth, of course the jail seems to be the number one topic and I understand that. But I have found people to be — as I typically do — very warm, very understanding of many things, and, of course, wanting information.” He said constituents are concerned about jobs, the economic downturn, and the services provided for veterans, the elderly, the unemployed and the homeless. “Overwhelmingly, the people I had dialogue with were warm, friendly and gracious,” he praised. County Commissioner #2 candidate Wayne Mayo, who has been taken advantage of the nice weather recently, said he has met a lot of people and “had the best time ever in Clatskanie.” In one weekend in April, he reported he and volunteers had reached close to 1,000 doors in Rainier. On Monday, they visited 250 doorsteps. Mayo said the most common questions he has received were in regard to the jail levy and where the hospital district funds went.
He explained that he has encouraged voters to support the levy, and told him about his plans to impose a depletion fee on loads of gravel to pay for the jail. Overall, he felt the response was “really positive”. He said voters remember him from his commissioner campaign 18 months ago, as well as remember him for an illegal alien employment measure he wrote six years ago and his involvement in the PUD switch over. “I had one lady say, ‘Oh, I voted for you. You have the best signs!’” he added. Circuit Court Judge #3 incumbent Jenefer Grant said that despite being busy with trials, she spent much of her campaign energy on educating voters about the jail levy. “Last Monday, I went with Earl Fisher to talk to the Rainier City Council about the potential consequences of the jail levy failing. However, I do love to meet voters, so I have gone door-to-door on several weekends, and appeared when invited to campaign forums. … And I had a great time last Tuesday doing a ‘walk-through’ to meet voters at Pacific Stainless, after Jeff Kemp very generously invited me there for that purpose. I have also attended various community events in the last few weeks, such as volunteering with my 9-year-old daughter to serve lunch to soldiers at the Elks club last Sunday, but these are things I do whether or not I’m campaigning, so they don’t really ‘count.’” At last month’s forum, Circuit Court position #3 write-in candidate Agnes Petersen said she had received great reception from voters by sending out post cards and going door to door. Petersen’s memorable campaign approach included a cheerleading routine that she performed at the candidate meet and greet. Circuit Court Judge #1 incumbent Jean Martwick said she took every opportunity to speak with voters. Perhaps the most unique
part of Martwick’s campaign was her participation in a motorcycle parade from Scappoose to Clatskanie one weekend. “The reception has been wonderful for me, I’m meeting a lot of great people,” she said at a candidate forum last month. Daniel Lewkow, campaign manager for Circuit Court #1 candidate Cathleen Callahan, said, “It’s going really well, Cathy’s out knocking on doors. People like the opportunity to talk to someone who is running for judge, and her giving them the answers herself.” “One thing that’s real important is Cathy has spent so much time in the community and she is gaining an understanding of how people feel and she’s using that for motivation for her campaign.” “Everybody seems really positive,” says Callahan. “They seem very appreciative of me coming to them. It’s been interesting. People are always a bit suspicious at fist, but they’re always pleasant, and they’re very grateful people.” Lewkow joked that the one challenge during the campaign has been that Callahan also takes time to talk to every dog she meets. Callahan agreed, “I would get more done if I didn’t talk as much!” For Circuit Court #1 candidate Jason Heym, campaigning was a family affair. “My campaign is me and my 9-year-old son in the front seat in our Dodge pickup. When people ask me about my campaign manager, I just point to my 9-year-old and say ‘Just ask him’.” Heym said he “learned so much from talking to voters” at forums, meetings and while knocking on doors. “One thing I’m trying to do is rather than just go hawk my message, I’ve been trying to just have conversations with people and find out what their issues are with lawyers and judges. And I think it’s more beneficial for both
one wants to waste money, community safety is something that most of us are willing to pay for. Anyone who has attended a public forum on the levy has heard Mr Preheim’s faulty math debated by many county officials. The cost is not a simple division problem, but more a flexible figure which will change depending on the prison population. The lower charge for the federal prisoners is based on actual cost to the county and not some whimsy of the commissioners. It is, at this point, what the Feds are willing to pay to house their prisoners with us. On the advisory committee issue I have to correct Mr Preheim’s assertion that the committee is useless because it was stated that the levy is the only answer. What commissioner Heimuller and I said, along with countless others in different forums, is that the passage of the jail levy must come first and the committee will have time to come up with alternate funding sources while keeping the jail open. It appears that Mr Preheim’s has some residual resentment regarding the county that goes back several years and I am sorry to hear that. I am just not prepared to sacrifice public safety for a “get back”. Carroll Sweet Scappoose
be a strong advocate for her clients; she is fair and evenhanded in negotiations. Agnes would bring to the bench an open mind, the strongest legal background, the ability to make decisions and to follow the law. For these reasons, Agnes would make an excellent Judge for the Columbia County Circuit Court. Agnes has practiced as an attorney in Columbia County for her entire career and is well respected by her peers and Judges. To the citizens of Columbia County, please write in Agnes Petersen as Circuit Court Judge in the election for Circuit Court Judge against Jenefer Stenzel Grant. Gregory B. Soriano Beaverton
AMANDA FRINK / The Chronicle Circuit Court Judge Jean Martwick literally took her campaign to the streets last month when she hopped on the back of a bike for a motorcycle parade across the county (above). Meanwhile, circuit court judge candidate Cathleen Callahan (below) speaks with St. Helens resident Tammy Mathison while knocking on doors and meeting with voters last month.
sides. I think it’s been informative for both sides.” Heym said he received a lot of feedback regarding the local court process. “They’re upset they have to wait so long at court and then when they get there they feel like they aren’t getting a full fair hearing,” he explained.
As for strategies, Heym stated he has been avoiding negative campaigning. “I decided long ago, win or lose, I’m going to be myself,” he explained. “I’m going to do things that I’m going to be proud to tell my kids about.” He added that his kids have learned a bit about de-
mocracy during the process, as well. “Win, lose or draw, the best thing I’ve got out of it is I’ve made more lifelong friends. It’s been the most positive thing for me … I think I’ve met a lot of people that will be my lifelong friends, and you can’t put a price on that.”
Let’s elect Wayne Mayo I’ve known Wayne Mayo for a good portion of my life. He’s energetic and responsible. As a Father he raised 7 kids, as a Pastor of a church I attended for 15 years, I’ve watched him speak into the lives of numerous others. As a citizen he’s served the community in many nonpaid roles; worthy of mention was as Chairman of the takeover of Enron by the CRPUD saving the taxpayers in the county in excess of $40 million. Wayne Mayo’s Idea of a depletion tax ear marked for the jail is a smart one. Consider Alaska, where much of the infrastructure is paid for by State resources like oil. Our county resources should be thought of as belonging to the people and the community should be the benefactor. At 65 cents per ton of rock leaving the community. We could take into Columbia County an additional $1.92 million per year without being a burden on our residents. Let’s elect Wayne and get it done. Todd Gregory St. Helens

Letters From PAGE A4 Supports Wayne Mayo Good leaders need to be innovative and resourceful in finding viable solutions to issues and concerns. They communicate clearly and are forthright in how they present information, solutions and concerns. They take full responsibility as stewards of the taxpayers’ money whether directly or indirectly responsible. The major responsibility of voters is to elect individuals who will work in the best interest of the people. When those elected fail to do so than voters need to replace them with individuals willing to do so. Wayne Mayo is one of those willing to do so. His proposal of increasing the depletion fee will not immediately generate funds for the jail. If the levy passes it won’t go into effect immediately either. Mr. Mayo is aware of this and the fee is for road repairs. However, by properly collecting the fee combined with the proposed increase it can cover the cost to repair roads and provide support for the jail. The difference is the burden falls on those, who purchase and profit from the rock, instead of homeowners who cannot afford As a business owner, Wayne Mayo, understands you cannot wait until you have lost the revenue to look for replacement funds. You must always be generating new revenue sources. So many times people state that government needs to operate like a business. We have the opportunity to vote someone into office that knows how to operate government like a profitable business. Let’s do it! Carmen Kulp Scappoose Mr. Preheim has faulty math I am writing in response to Brady Preheim’s jail levy article. First, I have to stress that the jail is a public service not a business and while no
To the citizens of Columbia County The citizens of Columbia County have a unique opportunity to write in the name of Agnes M. Petersen for Circuit Court Judge. Agnes Petersen has been an attorney for the State of Oregon since 1960. I have personally known Agnes for almost 40 years. In my opinion, Agnes Petersen is one of the most highly qualified candidates in the State of Oregon to be elected to the bench as a Circuit Court Judge. Over the years, I have had many cases with Agnes and have always found her to stand for honesty, integrity and to
A bubble worth filling in Election ballots have extra bubbles and blank lines on them because sometimes the best candidate is a write-in candidate. That is the case with Circuit Court Judge Position 3. Agnes Petersen is a principled, intelligent woman who has served this county as a lawyer for over 5 decades. She has years of experience in both civil and criminal law. She helped found the Oregon Women Lawyers and has served at the highest levels of leadership and governance in the Oregon State Bar. All that aside, she deserves your vote for one simple reason: she cares. And she can kick over her head. Her enthusiasm, which she demonstrated at the “Meet the Candidate” night is exactly what has made her such an effective advocate for her clients. She revels in a challenge and rises to meet it. She care about Columbia County and its residents. She will devote all that considerable energy and caring to the job of judge. Write in Agnes Petersen and fill in the bubble next to it for Columbia County Circuit Court Judge Position 3. Paul Tessar, MD Columbia City
Judge Martwick is best choice. I worked as a legal assistant for the Columbia County Consortium while Jean Martwick was an attorney there. Jean Martwick was a dedicated, hard worker. Whenever the administrator needed help with difficult clients or complex cases, Jean was available. When she worked at the consortium, she averaged 250 cases a year representing children and adults who couldn’t afford an attorney. Those cases required that she work with many local agencies; such as, Columbia County Mental Health, CASA for Kids, Women’s Resource Center, Parole and Probation and the Citizen Review Board. No other candidate has represented more people of Columbia County than
Disputes Martwick’s claims Political advertising can be deceiving. It is up to us as voters to dig deeper for the truth. In her ads, Ms. Martwick says she is dedicated to equal access to justice. Ms . Martwick was a criminal defense attorney and was paid with funds from the state of Oregon to defend those who could not afford an attorney. The point is she was paid for her public service. It was not volunteer work. Ms. Martwick was volunteered for Animal Aid Inc, in Portland, which she stopped in 2008. The teen court and mock court competitions she mentions were over 10 years ago and not in Columbia County. Her claim of thousands of hours in the courtroom in the courtroom is ambiguous as an average of 99% of ALL criminal cases plea out and there is no trial. Many if most of the local attorneys spend thousands of hours in the courtroom. She is talking about starting a Veterans Court if she gets elected. Ms. Marwick’s voting record shows a lack of honoring veterans who have been protecting our freedoms by voting only 8 times out of the last 38 times in the last 15 years, she has not voted at all since 2008. Ms. Martwick is an experienced criminal defense attorney, but is overstating her courtroom experience and her community activities. Her disconnection from the community is obvious by her
Vote for Wayne Mayo I’m writing to encourage you to vote for Wayne Mayo. Wayne is a long time business owner in our community who has spoken up many times, sharing his ideas to bring living wage jobs to Columbia County. He has also indicated that he plans to encourage prudence in the management of County funds available and prudence in working to lower costs for the residents of our County. I believe it is a time to give him a chance to act on his ideas. I believe Wayne May is truly honest and outspoken. I also believe he will bring true transparency to the Columbia County Commission. Nancy Reed Scappoose Voting for Cathleen Callahan It makes me nervous when a candidate wants me to vote for them just because they were appointed by the Governor. This is the same Governor that has allowed a quarter of a billion dollars down the drain on the only heath care exchange in the country yet to be able to sign up even one applicant online. Oregon is now the laughingstock of the country and this fiasco has become the butt of many jokes, and rightfully so. The level of incompetence is incredible. The bridge to Washington was another of this Governor’s projects and $200 million dollars later, there is nothing to show for it. I mention this because people make mistakes. The Governor got it wrong, I will be voting for Cathleen Callahan. We need a judge for Columbia County, we cannot risk another mistake from the Governor’s office. Mary Liesegang St. Helens

Habitat for Humanity ReStore celebrates one year It was a day of happy, smiling faces as Habitat for Humanity ReStore volunteers and custmers celebrated the first anniversary of the popular store located on Little Street in St. Helens, just behind The Bike Shop on Hwy 30. Formerly a thrift store known as Norma’s, the store re-opened its doors last May as a new Habitat ReStore, serving Columbia County with everything from quality, used, or new furniture, appliances, build-

ing materials, paint, and more for the bargain seeking homeowner or renter, or landlord. Since its opening, the store has been a popular fixture for the public looking for everything from a “hardto-find anywhere else part, to a vintage dining room set”, according to Dave Marble, store manager. Revenues go to help the nonprofit, local Habitat affiliate raise funds for building new, affordable homes for selected homebuyers, who otherwise may not be able to afford their own home. On Saturday, May 10, the store opened to waiting customers anxious to get deals like new plants and trees donated by Means Nursery at low, blow out prices; free delivery for all purchases on Saturday; buy unclaimed bicycles donated by the St. Helens Police Department; enter hourly drawings; silent auctions; and get specials on selected items in the store. In addition, the volunteers offered refreshments, and enjoyed live entertainment
by popular entertainers Guy Live and Miz Mary. The success of this event is very encouraging to those hardworking volunteers and staff members. “We set a record day, which make it even more special,” said Boyd Ruby, president of the Columbia County Habitat for Humanity board of directors. “We have worked hard this past year and it has paid off.” And while the store was busy with customers, volunteers at the warehouse next door were also busy accepting donations throughout the day at their intake operation. “We accept donations during the week, during our normal operating hours from generous donors. We are open Wednesday through Saturday, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Those donations are in turn prepared and then placed on the retail floor for sale. The money we raise goes to helping us build homes. It is really a very simple business plan. The more we get, the more we sell, the more we sell. The
more we make to help build homes with,” said Bill Blank, executive director. “A lot of people who follow us on Facebook, or saw our ads, came just to be part of this special first anniversary event. Their support means a lot to all us here at the store,” said Dave. “We are supplying something unique to Columbia County. The people are finding out about us and coming in to check us out. Once here, they usually become returning customers. They become like family to us. We look forward to seeing their smiling faces, and hearing how they put something they bought at the store to use, often in a unique and totally different way than it was designed for. We have a lot of creative people here.” The Habitat ReStore is located at 164 Little Street in St. Helens, just off Hwy 30. To learn more about what the store accepts, or arrange for a donation, call 503-366-1400. The store is also an official PaintCare collection site.

‘In Memoriam’ concert to honor veterans Public Meetings
ST. HELENS — The Columbia Chorale of Oregon will be performing a concert entitled “In Memoriam.” The concert is being held in honor of our country’s veterans, and consists of patriotic choral music. The performance will be held on Memorial Day Weekend, Sunday, May 25, at 3 p.m., at the First United Methodist Church, 560 Columbia Boulevard, St. Helens. The concert is
free to attend. Donations are being accepted. The program brings honor to our nation’s soldiers and war veterans through songs that include “Land of the Free” by Michael and Angela Souders, and “O Captain! My Captain!” from Walt Whitman’s poem with music by John Purifoy. Praise and encouragement for our nation is sung in songs such as “God Bless the U.S.A.,” by
Lee Greenwood, and “Lift Every Voice For Freedom,” arranged by Moses Hogan in response to the Sept. 11, 2001, attack on the U.S. Columbia Choral’s AJ Wong, who holds degrees from St. Olaf College, Pacific University, and the University of Montana, will conduct the concert. He is currently Principal Director of Blueprint Ensemble Arts, Artistic Director of the Liedertafel Harmonie, and
Music Director at Parkrose Community United Church of Christ. On keyboard is Christopher Wilson, who currently plays for numerous choral ensembles. The Columbia Chorale of Oregon has had more than 12 years of experience and is proud to be Columbia County’s only classical music group. For further information, contact Angie Misumi, 503875-4611.

Gedlich resigns from Scappoose council BY AMANDA FRINK amandaf@thechronicleonline.com
SCAPPOOSE — At their May 5 meeting, the Scappoose City Council was faced with two more absences in the wake of the city’s dismissal of their police chief and city manager. Mayor Scott Burge read a resignation letter from councilwoman Donna Gedlich, who had served the city
30 years as city employee and then on the council. Gedlich has been out for a few months due to medical issues. “I want to thank Councilor Gedlich for all her service,” Burge said. “… I pray for her.” The city plans to declare her seat vacant and start advertising for a new council member at the next city council meeting. Also departing Scappoose was City Planner Brian Var-
ricchione, requiring the city to find an interim planner. Varricchione and interim city administrator Don Otterman interviewed Rich Faith, former community development director for the city of Troutdale, and Stacey Goldstein, of Siegel Planning Services. At a special meeting on May 12, interim city administrator Don Otterman recommended the city hire Goldstein, as she has experience with small towns and has
worked with DKS, the city’s consultant on the current Transportation System Plan. The council authorized Otterman to enter into a contract with Siegel Planning Services to provide interim city planner services at an hourly rate of $80. Otterman estimated that Goldstein would work about 12 hours a week in Scappoose. The city is still in the process of recruiting a permanent city manager. Also on May 5, Burge
announced the “If I were mayor” contest winners, Tori Head and Jintana Happala. Head was presented with a $50 iTunes gift card for the slideshow she created with ideas to improve Scappoose, including covered sports bleachers, a community pool and more animal rights involvement. Happala submitted a poster illustrating the public pool she would build in honor of her friend, Fred Burnett. Burge said her entry would
be sent to the Oregon Mayors Association to compete in the statewide contest. The council approved an ordinance to rename Casey Street — the block between Highway 30 and First Street — to JP West Road. The mayor read proclamations for the distribution of VFW Buddy Poppies on May 16 and 17, and National Law Enforcement Week May 11 through 17. Happala presented a gift to Lt. Norm Miller for the occasion.
Spelling bee winners headed to state competition BY AMANDA FRINK amandaf@thechronicleonline.com
COLUMBIA COUNTY — Three students from Clatskanie and Vernonia school districts will represent the county at state competition after winning the Columbia County Spelling Contest held by the Northwest Regional Education Service District on May 7. The contest, which was proctored by David Cook, posed 20 words to each of the three divisions, as well as five tie-breaker words as needed. Winners were determined by the amount of words they had spelled correctly. Each Columbia County school district sent their top two district spelling bee winners in each of the three age divisions: Division 1 for first through fifth grades; Division 2 for sixth through eighth grades; and Division 3 for ninth through 12th grades. Competing in Division 1 were Molly Hagen and Toby Hickman from Scappoose; Anne Marie Davis and Macy Newton from
Clatskanie; Lucille Ontiveras and Jake Sorensen from Rainier; Gabriella McAdams and Cassidy McLaughlin from Vernonia; and Calvin Habel from St. Helens. Newton took first place, Habel took second and Davis was third. In Division 2 were Alia Alshamsi and Elise Winkel from Scappoose; Levi McDonald and Krysta Lovegren from Clatskanie; Ethan Buss and Emily Sanchez from Rainier; Kailia Jackson and Ben Fleck from Vernonia; and Natalie Caton from St. Helens. McDonald was first place, Jackson took second and Fleck was third. Division 3 was a bit smaller with five competitors: Connor Thorud from Clatskanie; Jeremiah Kramberg and Laura Lefebvre from Rainier; and Jacob Eyrrick and Dylan Taylor from Vernonia. Taylor took first place, Eyrrick was second and Thorud took third. All of the first place winners will go on to compete at the state competition at the Oregon State Fair on Aug. 30.
AMANDA FRINK / The Chronicle In Division 3, Clatskanie’s Connor Thorud took third place, and Vernonia students Jacob Eyrrick and Dylan Taylor took second and first, respectively, at the Columbia County spelling contest last week.
Local World War II veteran granted an Honor Flight BY AMANDA FRINK amandaf@thechronicleonline.com
ST. HELENS — A World War II veteran and his daughter have the opportunity to travel to the National WWII Memorial thanks to some help from the local Veterans of Foreign Wars posts, the American Legion and the Elks Lodge. Next month, the Honor Flight Network will fly Clarence “Mac” McDonnell, of St. Helens, and 24 other area veterans to Washington, D.C. to see the memorial that has been dedicated to them but they haven’t yet had a chance to see. Part of the non-profit organization The Bend Heroes Foundation, the Honor Flight Network provides all-expenses paid trips for WWII veterans who have never seen the memorial and are physically able to travel. Participating veterans travel with guardians, people who assist them throughout the trip. McDonnell’s guardian was to be his daughter, Beth Bjork. But when McDonnell was granted with an Honor Flight sooner than anticipated, Bjork hadn’t had enough time to raise enough funds for her expenses, which are usually $1,200 to $1,300. That’s when local VFW, American Legion and Elks Club members stepped up to help. On Friday, they presented the father and daughter with a check to take care of the rest of Bjork’s expenses for the trip. The pair will fly out June 12, stay in Alexandria, Va., and return on June 15. The Honor Flight itinerary includes stops at the nation’s capitol, Tomb of the Unknowns, and numerous other memorials and monuments. McDonnell had been working in the shipyards at Swan Island when he enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1944 at the age of 18. After boot camp, he was assigned aboard a cruiser stationed out of San Diego, Calif. “That was a cushy job, all we did was take the Marines out and shoot the big guns at the islands out there,” he stated. McDonnell then served on a destroyer to escort and defend larger vessels in the fleet. “It was a good job there,
we got to take a different group every week,” he remembered. “I met a lot of nice people there.” When McDonnell got out of the Navy two years later, he worked for his brother’s tile business and then in the shipping and receiving department at Crown-Zellerbach for 42 years. In the coming weeks, McDonnell will likely be preparing himself for one particular part of the adventure — his flight. “I’m not hot on flying, but I guess that’s the only way to get there!” he quipped. According to Honor Flight of Portland, there are only about 10 percent, or 1.6 mil-
lion, WWII veterans alive today; approximately 32,000 of them live in Oregon. Only 115 WWII veterans have traveled with Honor Flight, and there are more than 40 on the waiting list. Walt Thompson, who was a member of the St. Helens Elks and VFW Post 4362, passed away before he could take his honor flight. Honor Flight of Portland serves veterans in Columbia, Clatsop, Washington, Multnomah and Hood River counties. To sign up a WWII veteran for an Honor Flight, volunteer with the organization, or to donate to the effort, call 971264-0814 or log onto portlandhonorflight.org.
AMANDA FRINK / The Chronicle Back row: Tom Ford of VFW 4362, Roger Trudeau of American Legion Post 42, Alta Lynch of the St. Helens Elks Lodge and VFW Ladies Auxiliary, Lyle King of American Legion Post 42, and Dave Nelsen of VFW 1440 and fellow members donated funds so that Beth Bjork (front right) could accompany her father, Mac McDonnell (front left) on his Honor Flight to Washington, D.C.

She started the team’s first scoring rally with a one-out single in the top of the fourth inning. Sass followed with a single of her own, advancing Giesbers to second base. An RBI double from Leal brought Giesbers in for the Lions’ first run. Two innings later, Giesbers got things started with a one-out walk. This time Sass moved her to second with a sacrifice bunt.

The St. Helens Lions and Scappoose Indians will head to their respective district track and field championships this week with different goals in mind. For the Scappoose boys, a fourth straight Cowapa League championship could be on the horizon. SHS head coach David Harley doesn’t think it will come easily. “Boys should see us and Seaside in a close team competition,” Harley said. The girls meet could feature a bit more intrigue. “The Banks girls are very good in the field events and have enough on the track to make them one of the favorites, but Seaside has a lot of depth and should also challenge. We can compete with them both if we have a strong two days and get a break here or there,” he said. The Cowapa League Championships are at Yamhill-Carlton High School May 15-16. Field events start at 2 p.m. on May 15, with the track events starting at 3:30 p.m. that day. On May 16, field events again start at 2 p.m. and the running events get underway at 4 p.m. The NWOC Championships will be at Sandy High School May 15-16. On Thursday, field events are set to start at 3 p.m. and running events at 4 p.m. On Friday, field events will begin at 3:30 p.m. and track events start at 5 p.m. Lion coach Gerry Tinkle said top-four finishes are the goals for both the SHHS boys and girls. “Liberty, Sandy and Wilsonville will battle it out for the boys title. Liberty and Sherwood look good in the girls,” Tinkle said. “We hope to finish in the upper half in both.” There are several events in which both the Lions and Indians will be chasing individual titles. Below is a list of student-athletes who rank in the upper tier of their events, as found on athletic.net. St. Helens Boys 110-meter hurdles SHHS senior Thomas Hughes has the fastest time in this event. His mark of 15.19 seconds is ahead of Liberty junior Nick Bonat’s mark of 15.51. Hughes ranks fourth in 5A. He is the reigning NWOC champ. 300-meter hurdles Hughes has the second-fastest mark in this event. His mark of 40.98 trails only Sandy junior Robert Bierly’s time of 40.56. It is seventh in the state at the 5A level this season. Hughes was See preview, Page B7

Indians blast Braves, sweep Seagulls A four-run fifth inning helped the eighth-ranked Scappoose Indians (14-7, 8-4) help close the door on Banks’ run of domination in the Cowapa League. The Indians beat the secondranked Braves (16-3, 9-3) 7-1 on May 6, giving Banks its third straight loss. Banks had won eight straight games against Scappoose dating to 2011. Following the win over Banks, Scappoose swept the hapless Seaside Seagulls (5-17, 0-12) in a May 12 doubleheader by a combined score of 34-3. Both games were called in the fifth inning because of the 10-run mercy rule. Scappoose used a team effort to take the win. Eight different Indians either had a base hit, scored a run or had an RBI. The Indians got an early lead when senior leadoff Lacey Updike scored in the bottom of the first

With 12 top-five finishes spread across eight events, the Scappoose High School boys track and field team showed it will be one of the teams contending for a state title in a couple of weeks. Facing off against some of the most talented 4A teams in Oregon on May 9, the Indians racked up 99 team points to handily win the Wally Ciochetti Invitational. “You hope that they didn’t peak too soon with such a great performance, but I don’t think that is the case with this group. They are definitely ready and will hopefully have their best meets this week and next,” said Scappoose coach David Harley. That win came on the heels of the Tribe’s boys and girls teams sweeping a double dual meet at home on May 7. The SHS boys beat the Tillamook Cheesemakers 90-55 and the Astoria Fishermen 101-44. The girls beat Tillamook 80-65 and Astoria 84-61. At the invitational in Cottage Grove, the Indian boys won five events, including both relays. For the third straight week, the Tribe’s 4x100 relay team lowered the school record. Sophomore Jarrett White, senior Nick Rust, senior Matt Shoun and senior Justice Oman improved their time to 43.04 seconds. Shoun, Rust, Oman and senior Mychal Hortert won the 4x400 relay with a time of 3:24.

Lions shake up school’s top 10 lists by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com
HILLSBORO — Senior Kylie Reinholdt improved her own St. Helens High School record in the triple jump on May 7. The triple jump was the prime event for the Lions, as they won both the boys’ and girls’ competitions. Those equated to two of the three St. Helens wins on the day during what amounted to a league preview meet between St. Helens, Sherwood, Sandy and Liberty at Liberty High School. Reinholdt won the triple jump with a mark of 36-2.75. It betters her previous SHHS record, set in 2012, by threequarters of an inch. Reinholdt wasn’t the only Lion shaking up the school’s top-10 lists at the meet. Senior Thomas Hughes emerged victorious from a pack of talented hurdlers in the 110-meter high hurdles with a time of 15.19 seconds. That time places him sixth on the all-time SHHS list. Three of the Northwest Oregon Conference’s top four high hurdlers competed in the meet at Liberty, with Hughes

had the Lions’ other victory. He won the triple jump by a half-inch with a leap of
39-6.5. Senior Jacob Zartman’s season-long winning streak in the shot put came to an end on May 7. He finished second place in that event with a throw of 46-7, coming in behind Liberty senior Jon Horn’s throw of 50-0.5. Junior Jesse Vanderwall added another second-place finish for St. Helens. He was the runner-up in the pole vault, clearing 12-6. Hughes, Reinholdt, senior Tanner Long and senior Chris Gray added a handful of third-place finishes. Hughes took third in the 200 meters with a time of 23.43 seconds. Reinholdt was third in the high jump, clearing 4-10. Long ran the 100-meter dash in a personal-best time of 11.73 seconds to take third. Gray went 193.5 in the long jump, good for third. The St. Helens relay team of freshman Richard Sass, sophomore Bryce Bumgardner, Long and Hughes took second behind Sandy in the 4x400. The Lions will be at Sandy High School May 1516 for the NWOC Championship Meet. See pages B1 and B7 for a full preview.

career game for most pitchers. For her, it’s another notch in the belt. She tossed her sixth one-hit shutout of the season, this time striking out 15 Wildcats without walking any. She added a 2-for-3 day at the plate for good measure. St. Helens got its lone score in the bottom of the third inning. Giesbers walked, stole second base, stole third base and scored on a single from Leal. Giesbers finished the game with four stolen bases. With three more wins this week, the Lions can wrap up
their first league title since leaving the Cowapa League. St. Helens hosted Milwaukie (2-19, 1-10) on May 13. The Lions’ biggest game of the week is on May 14. St. Helens travels to Putnam High School to play the No. 6 Kingsmen (16-6, 9-2) in a 5 p.m. game. Putnam can force a tie for the league lead with a win.

KYLE BOGGS / The Chronicle St. Helens junior Ryne Poorman, left, and sophomore Bryce Mulcahy return to the dugout following Poorman’s two-run home run against Liberty last week.
Lions are on the outside looking in After going 1-2 during a three-game series against the Liberty Falcons (9-15, 7-8), the St. Helens Lions (7-15, 5-10) find themselves two spots out of the final 5A play-in spot with two games left in the regular season. Both of those games are against the Milwaukie Mustangs (6-17, 3-12), who sit behind the Lions in the OSAA Power Rankings. St. Helens is ranked 26th and Milwaukie is 30th. The top 24 teams advance to the play-in round. St. Helens put itself in a position to win the series against Liberty, taking a late lead in the third game of the series on May 12. That lead, however, turned out to be short-lived. The Lions capitalized on three Falcon errors to push a pair of runs across in the top of the fifth inning. That put St. Helens ahead 3-2 in the third game of their threegame series. The teams split the first two games. Liberty strung together three base hits, a walk and an error in the bottom of the fifth to take a two-run lead. The Falcons held on the rest of the way for a 5-3 win. The Falcons took a quick
2-0 lead in the first inning before the Lions cut that lead in half in the top of the second. St. Helens got its first run on an RBI single from junior Ryne Poorman. Lion junior Bryce Winnier went 2-for-3 at the plate. St. Helens sophomore Bryce Mulcahy was 2-for-4 and scored once. Poorman also scored a run. Poorman gave the team some breathing room in the second game of the series. His two-run home run in the bottom of the sixth gave the Lions a 4-1 lead that they held onto for the rest of the game. In his previous at-bat, Poorman extended a twoout rally and moved junior Bryson Takemoto from first base to third base. Bryson’s twin brother Brody drove him in with a single that tied the game at 1-1. Liberty won the first game of the series 8-0 during a game in which St. Helens managed only three hits. Milwaukie and St. Helens started their two-game series in St. Helens on May 13. The teams conclude the regular season with a 4:30 p.m. game on May 16 at Lake Road Field.

Beers wins 2nd springers tourney WARREN — Columbia County resident Tina Beers won the Second annual Scappoose Bay Springers Tournament. Beers brought in a spring chinook salmon that measured out at 31 inches long and weighed 17.25 pounds. The fishing competition is sponsored by Scappoose Bay Kayaking, who rewarded Beers with a prize package valuing more than $400. It included a Stohlquist fisherman’s life jacket, a Gore-Tex rain jacket and a number of other pieces of equipment. The contest ran for the entire month of April and was open to all anglers who launched their boats from Scappoose Bay Marina and returned there. Prizes were awarded for both the longest fish and heaviest fish checked in at Scappoose
Bay. Beers’ salmon was the longest and heaviest one entered into the competition. Beers joins fellow Columbia County resident Rhonda Johnston in the club of tournament champions. Johnston won the inaugural event last year with a 37.25inch catch that weighed 21.5 pounds. Scappoose Bay Kayaking general manager Bru Benoist said the shop opens at 5 a.m. Friday through Sunday when the salmon season is in full swing. Scappoose Bay is a registered ODFW license agent. In addition to fishing licenses, Scappoose Bay also stocks bait, ice, coffee, snacks and gear for most marine activities. Benoist said the Scappoose Bay Springers Tournament will be back in 2015. – By Kyle Boggs

Evangelista presses on with more records MEDFORD — Undergoing foot surgery in November forced him to take a hiatus. But now Columbia City’s Freddie Evangelista is back to doing what he does best: Bench-pressing record-setting amounts of weight. Evangelista set his 45th world record recently at the World Association of Benchers and Deadlifters competition at the Ramada Hotel and Convention Center. Competing in the 165-pound weight class, the 59-year-old Evangelista benched an astounding 485 pounds. The lift easily won the competition for the 54- to 60-year-old division and shattered the previous record in that division. The old world record, which had stood since 1997, was 345 pounds. Evangelista’s opening lift in Medford was 444 pounds. He followed that up by benching 463, then 485. He tried for a 501-pound lift, but narrowly missed. Perhaps coincidentally, the 17-yearold record was set in the same year

Evangelista set the first of his now-45 world records. The lift also registers as an Oregon state record in the 165-pound division for any age group. This lift earned Evangelista the Most Outstanding Lifter Award at the

competition. It’s the 46th time he has won such an award. Evangelista set another record in the deadlift, despite not being completely satisfied with his lift. He said his foot is still sore from the surgery he underwent in November, which made deadlifting more of a challenge than benchpressing. Still, Evangelista won the 54-60 division with a lift of 485 pounds, which establishes a new Oregon state record in that age and weight class. Evangelista’s performance at this event qualifies him for the 2014 World Championships in Las Vegas, where he can try for his 17th world championship. He plans on competing in Portland in July, where he will drop back down to his preferred weight class of 148 pounds. The record in the 148-pound division for his age stands at 343 pounds, so there’s a good chance Evangelista will add another record to his collection in July.

The matchups are right in line with how the regular season ended. Grant finished as the No. 1 team with an 8-0. The Lady Barbarians were second at 7-1, followed by Columbia County with a 6-2 mark and Battle Ground at 5-2-1. – By Kyle Boggs

Cowapa could be decided Friday The top spot in the Cowapa League could be determined in a one-game, winner-take-all regular season finale on May 16. That’s when the seventh-ranked Scappoose Indians (17-5, 10-2) will hit the road to take on the Astoria Fishermen (12-5, 9-2). As of The Chronicle’s press deadline (3 p.m., May 13), the teams shared the Cowapa League lead with two losses apiece. Astoria gave Scappoose its second loss of the league campaign on May 6, an 8-0 Fishermen win. The Indians bounced back from the defeat with a 6-2 win over the Banks Braves (9-10, 5-7) on May 7 and a 12-2 rout of the Y-C Tigers (4-15, 3-9) on May 12. A first-place finish buys the league champ extra rest, as that squad does not have to play in the OSAA Play-In Round, and instead receives a bye to the first round of the 16-team OSAA state playoffs. The Indians hit the ball

hard against the Fishermen, but more often than not the ball found the glove of Astoria’s center fielder. The Tribe was able to get some hits to fall against the Braves. Senior Hunter Hoyt
went 3-for-3 with a double and an RBI. Junior leadoff hitter Jake Ford was 2-for-3 and scored a pair of runs. Hoyt pitched a complete game, allowing only four hits and striking out six.
Hoyt again threw a complete game with six strikeouts against the Tigers, this time allowing five hits. He again got the job done at the plate as well, finishing 2-for-4 with a triple and three RBIs. Ford was 3-for-4, driving in a run and scoring twice. Senior Will Sprute and junior Justin Hering had two hits each. Sprute had two RBIs and Hering scored three runs. Before getting another crack at Astoria, Scappoose had two other opponents. The Indians played in Tillamook (10-6, 7-4) on May 13. Scappoose hosts Seaside (2-17, 1-11) at 5 p.m. on May 15. Astoria, meanwhile, had games scheduled against Seaside on May 13, Banks on May 14 and Tillamook on May 15. If both teams can win out against the other schools, they set up a de facto league championship game at AHS on May 16 at 5 p.m. – By Kyle Boggs
INDIANS: have hot bats against ’Gulls From PAGE B1 The Indians simply overpowered the Seagulls. Courtney ripped two home runs in the second inning of the first game – a solo home run and a grand slam. The second homer put Scappoose ahead 15-0. Courtney finished game one 2-for-2 with five RBIs. She followed that with a 2-for-3, three-RBI outing in the second game. The Indians had massive outings up and down the lineup. Updike, the team’s senior leadoff hitter, combined to go 6-for-7 on Senior Night at SHS. She had a double, scored five runs and drove in two. Sophomore Sage Harrison hit safely in all four of her at-bats across the two games. Bailey and senior Shelbie Butler both had two-run singles in the first game and Butler added two more RBIs in the second game. Dykes and freshman Julia Ferguson each had two base hits in the second game. Ferguson drove in two runs and scored twice; Dykes scored three runs. Updike and Reser com-

bined on a two-hit shutout in the first game. Ferguson allowed four hits and three unearned runs in the nightcap. Scappoose closes out the regular season with three road games. The Indians played the No. 1 Yamhill-
Carlton Tigers (15-1, 9-1) on May 13. They go to Astoria (11-12, 5-7) for a doubleheader starting at 4 p.m. on May 15. Visit thechronicleonline. com to see complete box scores from these games. – By Kyle Boggs

Raya was the runner-up in the long jump, going 15-9.75. In the home meet, Klippel won the shot and discus, and was second in the javelin. “Kenny made some adjustments to his technique this week and it obviously showed. He is getting more and more confident each week,” Harley said. Oman won the 100 and the long jump. Shoun, senior Carson Davison and junior Scott Toenjes went 1-2-3 in the 200. Shoun and sophomore Braden Clark took the top two spots in the 400. Junior David Krupsky won the 300-meter hurdles and his brother, junior Joey Krupsky, won the triple jump. Raya came in first in all three of her events to pace the girls. She won the long jump with a leap that measured out at 15-10. She won the 100-meter dash in 13.51 and helped the 4x100 relay team take first. Davidson won the 400 with a time of 59.82 — a mere five-hundredths of a second off the school record set by none other than Davidson herself a season ago. She has broken the one-minute mark in that event twice now; no other SHS girl has ever done so. Next up for Scappoose is the Cowapa League Championship Meet on May 15-16 at Yamhill-Carlton High School. See the article on pages B1 and B7 for more information on the district meet.
