Volunteers work on trails for Earth Day

BY BREE LAUGHLIN The World

A group of volunteers lined up along the Bog Trail, tools in hand, just outside Sunset Bay Campground on Saturday, April 22. They clipped and trimmed plants spreading onto the walkway, raked

up leaves and branches and threw debris away from the trail.

The volunteers were taking place in a Trailkeepers of Oregon Earth Day event. It’s just one of many trail events the organization puts on during the Spring and Sum-

mer seasons in Coos Bay and throughout the State of Oregon.

“It’s nice to do something good for the earth on Earth Day,” said Marty O’Brien-Sheldon, as volunteers gathered for the event.

“Why don’t we all say what

is our favorite thing that the earth offers us?”

Volunteers didn’t bat an eyelash before sharing what they appreciated about the earth. Their answers varied from the ocean, deer, and wildflowers to “all of the amazing fruits and vegetables

that the earth provides,” as well as trails for hiking and hearing the birds sing.

Trailkeepers of Oregon is a nonprofit who's mission is to protect and enhance the Oregon hiking experience Trail continued on page 3

Relay racers run from Roseburg to Coos Bay

Winning team: South Coast running Club members Kevin Brightbill, Brad Harbart and Derek McGargil won the Roseburg to Coos Bay Relay with a time of 8 hours and 5 minutes.

By BREE LAUGHLIN The World Exhausted runners wore big smiles as they crossed through the Roseburg to Coos Bay Relay Race finish line.

Spectators and race organizers cheered and rang cowbells in support of the athletes who finished the relay at the Coos Bay History Museum on Saturday evening, April 22.

Many of the relay race participants spent the bulk of the day running the course situated on quiet country roads along a river. The course features waterfalls, big trees and serious hills.

The relay race included a 68-mile course for 5 person running teams, and a 24-mile course for 4 person walking teams.

The teams staggered their starts depending on the predicted finishing time.

“The countryside is gorgeous,” said Amarissa Wooden – president of the South Coast Run-

through stewardship, advocacy, outreach, and education. At the heart of this work are people who love trails and want to be a part of the community that cares for them.

Before embarking on the trail work, Trailkeeper volunteer organizer O’Brien-Sheldon went over tool and trail safety.

She also acknowledged that it is Native American’s land that volunteers were treading on.

The volunteer coordinator also made efforts to make everyone feel safe and included.

Once they were out on the trail, volunteers quickly got to work with their clippers, loppers, rakes and pitch forks.

They spread out along the trail as they worked, communicating with

ning Club and the race director.

“We often take for granted what a beautiful area we live in … but in this case you are never bored running, and the communities welcome us. Everybody is really supportive along the way. So the course in itself is really special,” Wooden said.

Runners started at the KPIC-TV parking lot in Roseburg as early as 6 a.m., while walkers began in Laverne Park, Coquille. Relay race participants celebrated at the end of the day in Coos Bay with dinner, drinks and an awards ceremony. Many racers’ families and friends were there to congratulate them – some even running with them across the finish line.

While the course is 68-miles total, when you break it down, the most anyone is running at time is 14 miles.

“So, it’s something that is achievable,” Wooden said. “It’s

each other about what they were doing and getting to know each other.

Randy and Denice Bradbury are not strangers to volunteer work. In fact, they were near the end of a two-month stint as volunteer hosts at Shore Acres.

The couple said they saw a flier about the Trailkeepers of Oregon and wanted to contribute.

“Rangers and the paid staff can’t do it all on their own. All of the natural areas in Oregon rely on volunteers – so we have to help them out. It’s a huge job,” Denice said.

“And, we are big hikers,” Randy said.

“We hike at least twice a week, and we love it when the trails are kept in good shape.

So it’s nice to contrib-

friendly for runners of all levels.”

29 relay teams participated in the Roseburg to Coos Bay Relay Race this year.

The winning team was Hole 3 who completed the course in 8 hours 5 minutes. The winners are also South Coast Running Club members – Kevin Brightbill, Brad Harbart, and Derek McGargil.

The Directors Award goes to team who finished the race closest to their predicted time.

Photos by Bree Laughlin Scurvy Dogs finished Teams of runners covered either a 68-mile course or a 24-mile course during the annual Roseburg to Coos within 27 seconds of Bay Relay Race.

Stone promoted to communications supervisor

North Bend gives grant to SAFE Project The SAFE Project was recently awarded a $750 grant for community services. SAFE is an acronym for Safety, Advocacy, Freedom, and Empowerment.

It is a non-profit organization that provides emergency services to women, men, and children throughout the community who have

been victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. The North Bend City Council annually awards limited funds via grants to community groups and projects.

This is done in connection with North Bend’s budget process. The funds are, in essence, state funds the City receives as its portion

of the Oregon revenue sharing to cities. Part of the Council’s criteria in considering grant applications is whether a particular community group or project helps cut the need for public assistance or aids one of our municipal departments.

Book sale coming to North Bend library The Friends of the North Bend Public Library will be holding their annual used book sale on Saturday, May 20, from 11 a.m.-4 p.m.

The sale will include hundreds of gently used hardback and paperback books, DVDs, and CDs and will be located in the Meeting Room at the North Bend Public

Library.

The Friends’ Book Sale opens to the public starting at 11. Paid members of the Friends of the North Bend Public Library will be admitted to the presale, which will run from 1011 a.m. Members will also be treated to a free selection of tea, coffee, and baked goods

during the presale event. Friends’ memberships can be purchased at the book sale or in advance at the North Bend Public Library for an annual membership of $15.

For more information about this event, contact the library at (541) 756-0400 or email

Bees flock to clearcut areas but numbers decline as forest canopy regrows, OSU research shows

By STEVE LUNDEBERG Guest Article

Native bees in the Oregon Coast Range are diverse and abundant in clearcut areas within a few years of timber harvest but their numbers drop sharply as planted trees grow and the forest canopy closes,

research by Oregon State University shows.

The findings are important for understanding the roles forest management might play in the conservation of a crucial pollinator group, the researchers said.

The study, led by graduate student Rachel

Zitomer and Jim Rivers, an animal ecologist in the OSU College of Forestry, was published in Ecological Applications.

“The research demonstrates that Douglas-fir plantations develop diverse communities of Bees continued on page 7

This Week in History from all sections of the United States.

----------------------------Two smallpox cases reported

ONE AT DAVIS SLOUGH CAMP AND ONE AT LAKESIDE HEALTH OFFICER TAKES ACTION AND PRECAUTIONS TO PREVENT SPREAD OF DISEASE A smallpox patient was taken out of the Davis slough camp on Monday and confined in the pest house at Marshfield by Dr. Dix. Dr. Irwin went up to the camp with Charles Hudson on Tuesday and vaccinated all who were not already protected by having had smallpox or by having had successful vaccination within the last seven years. Four who refused vaccination will remain in camp for eighteen days; the others are now free to go and come.

Dr. Keizer has reported a case of smallpox in Lakeside. The county health officer went up by train to establish quarantine and vaccinate all persons who had been exposed.

The school children were to be vaccinated if they had written permission from their parents.

1973 BAHD asks public to help name hospital

Bay Area Hospital District directors okayed a lease-purchase arrange-

ment for hospital equipment Tuesday and called on the public for help in naming the new hospital.

The board authorized execution of a basic lease agreement subject to review of specific conditions by the hospital administrator, board and accountant.

The point has reached in construction where the contractor must know the name to install over the main door, directors were told.

After considerable discussion about names and general agreement that they were not ready to make a final decision now, the board asked the public to suggest names.

The decision must be made at the next board meeting, May 8, and “we want public input,” said Dr. Richard West, director.

----------------------------Mel Counts’ found home It looks like Coos Bay’s gypsy professional basketball player has found himself a home finally with the World Champion Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA. Mel Counts has had his ups and downs in the pro ranks, but he’s been consistent for the Lakers and coach Bill Sharman appreciates what the big seven-footer has done for him.

Big Mel is a nice guy, whom “everybody likes,” according to Laker publicist Jeff Temkin.

“It’s a real pleasure to work with Mel,” Temkin

commented recently.

“He’s truly a great person, in my estimation."

Counts was originally drafted by the Boston Celtics after his senior year at Oregon State, where he was an All-American, and there he stayed, mostly on the bench, for several years.

The Celtics then traded Counts, still mostly an unknown entity, to the Baltimore Bullets. Mel stayed there for a couple of years, before he was again traded.

This time, he went to the Los Angeles Lakers, where he had a few shots at playing, but then only as a reserve behind Wilt Chamberlain at center.

In 1969, Mel had his biggest night ever, against Lew Alcindor and company at Milwaukee and the Bay native rose to the occasion scoring 31 points and dragging down 20 rebounds against the highly publicized Alcindor.

In 1970, Counts was traded to Phoenix for Gail Goodrich.

Early in the season this year, Counts was traded by the Suns to Philadelphia, for a draft choice, but the Lakers didn’t like that idea.

Counts came back to the West Coast after only two weeks with the 76ers, in a trade which also netted Bill Bridges for LA. 2003 The college’s caretaker FRIENDLY FACES KEEP

JANITOR SWEEPING THE FLOORS AND MOPPING THE HALLS Twenty-eight years ago, custodian Vijay Murhram cleaned his first hallway at Southwestern Oregon Community College.

The campus was a lot smaller in 1975.

Southwestern’s Empire, Stensland, Sumner and Eden halls hadn’t been built yet. The student count was only a quarter of today’s 16,000. And Southwestern’s founder, Henry Hansen, was still alive.

Since then, Mukhram has worked under three different college presidents and watched faculty members, custodians and thousands of students come and go.

Through it all, however, Southwestern has retained what keeps Muhkram working night after night: faces both new and familiar, and a quiet place to work.

“I think he’s a pretty great guy,” Southwestern library technician Dawn Jones said. “He’s not seen very much. There’s probably just a core group that know Vijay is around — people that have been around for a while and see him in the evening.”

Muhkram holds in high regard this core group of library workers, custodians, instructors and students who see him cleaning Empire and Tioga halls.

“The teachers are real

friendly. The students are real friendly. It works out really good, this shift,” Muhkram said in a thick accent that has remained with him since he emigrated 33 years ago from Fiji to Modesto, Calif., with his mother and three brothers.

----------------------------Local team races to relay win

Go Hard or Go Home, a team of runners from Coquille and Myrtle Point, topped the field in the 26th edition of the Roseburg to Coos Bay Relay.

The team, consisting of Ken Young, John Gunther, Rosie Sweetman, Adam Cole and Bruce Kupersmith, completed the 67-mile course on the Coos Bay Wagon Road in 7:52:39. In the closest finish in the last seven years, two teams from Southern Oregon finished within two mintues of the winning time — Beatin’ Cheeks (7:53:43) and 2 Wrights, 3 Wrongs, which set a mixed team (coed) division record with a time of 7:54:44.

Go Hard or Go Home became the first team consisting entirely of South Coast runners to win the event since it was revived seven years ago.

The race took five-member teams from Roseburg to Coos Bay on the Coos Bay Wagon Road, crossing the Coast Range in the process. Each team member ran three legs ranging from 3.3 to 6.2 miles during the event.

films so it may get a little loud, and some may even shed a tear due to the nature of some of the meaningful films.

“We tried to make it really diverse. So it’s a nice variety of films,” said Dave Lacey, South Coast Tours owner and Oregon Coast Visitors Association representative.

The World Tour Paddling Film Festival has been showcasing the very best paddling films since 2006. It is designed to inspire those who watch the films to explore rivers, lakes and oceans, push extremes, appreciate wild places

paddle will start at the Port of Gold Beach near the boat launch and restrooms at 10 a.m.

“It’s a cool way for people who may have just moved here, or don’t know many people, to make some new friends. Then they have paddle buddies,” Lacey said.

“It can also help people become more confident when they paddle in places where they haven’t been before,” he said.

After the community paddle, a portion of the Port of Gold Beach parking lot will be designated for a gear swap.

“Anybody who wants to sell or trade gear will have a place to set up.

People can do some

trades, or find some good deals on stuff,” Lacey said.

After that, doors open at the public library at 5:30. There will be catered food, and Arch Rock beer. The movies start at 6 p.m. and will feature two and a half hours of short films.

They range from five minutes to twenty-some minutes.

The World Tour theatre screenings are happening in more than 135 cities around the world.

Halfway through the film festival in Gold Beach, everyone will take a short break to participate in a raffle.

“We have some amazing raffle prizes this year, from $1,000 worth

of heavy equipment work to stays at lodges to a ride on Jerry’s Jet Boats,” Lacey said.

“We are giving away a kayak and life jackets and safety kits. And giving out free stuff between every movie.

It’s going to be a lot of fun,” he said.

Proceeds from ticket sales and raffles will go to The Ascend Program – a school enrichment program in Curry County.

“They do really fun stuff with kids, from surfing to going to the park.

They also have junior lifeguard program with Curry County Aquatic Safety,” Lacey said.

The Film Festival Screening is $10 and will take place at the

Curry Public Library, 94341 3rd St. in Gold Beach.

Tickets for the Paddling Film Festival World Tour are available through EventBrite.

Paper tickets will also be available at Chetco Brewing in Brookings, First Chapter Coffee House in Gold Beach and Pineapple Express in Port Orford.

There is no cost to participate in the morning community paddle on the Rogue River at the new paddle launch in the harbor of the Port of Gold Beach (10 a.m. to noon) or the Gear Swap (12:30 to 2 p.m.)

Friday, May 5, 2023 stands of varying ages across a time frame representative of a typical 40-year harvest rotation.

The authors found that the total number of bees and the number of different bee species declined markedly with stand age, falling an average of 61% and 48%, respectively, for each five-year increment after harvest.

“Our results are important for forest managers because they indicate that bees do use intensively harvested stands, and that the window for bee conservation measures is restricted to a relatively short time period,” Zitomer said. “Our research is one of the first attempts to quantify how native bee communities change over time after one of the dominant forest disturbances that take place in the Oregon Coast Range.”

Animal pollinators enhance the reproduction of nearly 90% of the Earth’s flowering plants, including many food crops,

wild bees shortly after harvest,” Rivers said. “Management activities that promote open conditions and enhance floral resources in the initial years following harvest are likely to promote bee diversity in intensively managed forest landscapes.”

Despite widespread concern about how human activity may be driving global declines in pollinator species, little is known about the impacts of land management practices on wild bees outside of agricultural systems, the scientists note.

Closing that knowledge gap is critical, they say, because bees pollinate many of the flowering plants that make up ecosystems and support food webs.

In the spring and summer of 2018 and 2019, the scientists looked at native bee communities in 60 Douglas-fir

and are an essential component of insect and plant biodiversity. Native insect pollinators, primarily bees, are estimated to contribute more than $3 billion per year in commercial pollination services in the United States, Zitomer said, and are essential for the functioning of natural ecosystems and food chains. Oregon is home to more than 600 species of native bees, and nearly a quarter of them are found in recently harvested forests.

“Wild bees are the top pollinators in most temperate regions, and widespread declines have prompted worries about food security as well as ecosystem function,” Rivers said. “Understanding bees’ habitat requirements and how they respond to human activity is imperative if we want to take effective conservation measures.”

Recent studies have indicated that moderately

Raymond E. “Ray” Smith passed away at his home in North Bend on April 19, 2023. His wife, Jean had preceded him in death last December.

He is survived by his son, Dennis Smith; and his daughter, Carlin Woodall both of North Bend. His firstborn, Edward had preceded him in death.

Ray and Jean had three children, six grandchildren and six great grandchildren. Ray was a loving spouse, having been married to Jean for 76 years at the time of her death. His Christian faith was central to his identity. He was an active member of First Presbyterian Church in North Bend, having served for years as part of their Food Cupboard ministry. He was also a master gardener.

Ray was born in Marquand, Missouri on Dec 12, 1923. He moved to St. Louis in search of work in 1941. There he first became an active church goer and met Jean, the love of his life.

training in electronics so that he could be more useful in military service.

He was drafted in March of 1943 and assigned to the Army Air Corps charged with installing and repairing electronic equipment on bombers. He served in North Africa and Italy through the end of the war and achieved the rank of Sergeant.

Ray and Jean were married on March 10, 1946, at their home church in St. Louis. Ray then took advantage of the GI Bill to study Electrical Engineering at Washington University.

He graduated in June 1950 and later that year took a job with IBM. In 1957 he was offered a promotion to move to the IBM plant in San Jose, California. That was followed by moves to Boca Raton, Florida in 1968 and Rochester, Minnesota in 1975.

In 1979, Ray took an early retirement from IBM at age 55 after completing a major project as one of the senior engineers on the System

Ray and Jean decided to retire to a small farm in his ancestral home of Marquand, Missouri. This allowed him to return to his roots and cultivate his passions for gardening and fishing. He even kept bees on his farm!

He also gave back to his community by serving on the Board of the local hospital and helping to provide an ambulance and establish a volunteer EMT program. Ray served both as an EMT and as ambulance driver.

In 1989, Ray and Jean packed up one more time and moved to Coquille, Oregon so that they could be closer to grandchildren. The passions for gardening and fishing continued and his grandchildren were deeply influenced by time spent in rural Oregon with grandma and grandpa.

As Ray entered his mid-80s, the time came to seek a less challenging regimen. In 2008 they moved to Simpson Heights in North Bend.

Family, church, and

gardening commitments did not waver in this less rigorous setting. “In all our travels,” commented Ray, “we haven’t found a better place to live than the Oregon coast.”

Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 PM on Sunday, May 7, 2023 at the North Bend First Presbyterian Church, 2238 Pony Creek Road.

Burial is at the Coquille Pioneer Cemetery.

reducing the application of herbicides in the initial years after harvest can enhance pollinator species richness, in some cases without compromising revenue potential, the authors say.

“That could be a win-win for timber production and biodiversity conservation,” Zitomer said.

Including bee-pollinated plant species in the seed mixes used for revegetation along roadsides and at log landings is another way to help ensure maximum bee presence after timber harvesting, the researchers note.

OF OREGON, as trustee, in favor of MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC., AS NOMINEE FOR ADVANCED FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC., ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, as Beneficiary, dated 9/14/2005, recorded 9/21/2005, in official records of COOS County, Oregon as fee/file/instrument/microfilm/reception number 2005-14423 and subsequently assigned or transferred by operation of law to MCLP ASSET COMPANY, INC. covering the following described real property situated in said County, and State. APN: 6967200 25S1334DA 11600 LOTS 31, 32 AND 33, BLOCK 49, RAILROAD ADDITION TO MARSHFIELD, COOS COUNTY, OREGON. Commonly known as: 1041 S 7TH STREET, COOS BAY, OR 97420 The undersigned hereby certifies that based upon business records there are no known written assignments of the trust deed by the trustee or by the beneficiary, except as recorded in the records of the county or counties in which the above described real property is situated.

Further, no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS 86.752(7). Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and notice has been recorded pursuant to Section 86.752(3) of Oregon Revised Statutes.

There is a default by grantor or other person owing an obligation, performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to provisions therein which authorize sale in the event of such provision. The default for which foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED TO REINSTATE: $30,696.92 TOTAL REQUIRED TO PAYOFF: $91,893.85 Because of interest, late charges, and other charges that may vary from day-to-day, the amount due on the day you pay may be greater. It will be necessary for you to contact the Trustee before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so that you may be advised of the exact amount you will be required to pay. By reason of the default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those sums being the following, to- wit: The installments of principal and interest which became due on 12/1/2019, and all subsequent installments of principal and interest through the date of this Notice, plus amounts that are due for late charges, delinquent property taxes, insurance premiums, advances made on senior liens, taxes and/or insurance, trustee’s fees,

and any attorney fees and court costs arising from or associated with the beneficiaries efforts to protect and preserve its security, all of which must be paid as a condition of reinstatement, including all sums that shall accrue through reinstatement or pay-off.

Nothing in this notice shall be construed as a waiver of any fees owing to the Beneficiary under the Deed of Trust pursuant to the terms of the loan documents. Whereof, notice hereby is given that QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION F/K/A QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION OF WASHINGTON, the undersigned trustee will on 8/15/2023 at the hour of 11:00 AM, Standard of Time, as established by section 187.110, Oregon Revised Statues, At the Main Entrance to the Coos County Courthouse, located at 250 North Baxter Street, Coquille, OR 97423 County of COOS, State of Oregon, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash the interest in the said described real property which the grantor had or had power to convey at the time of the execution by him of the said trust deed, together with any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest acquired after the execution of said trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee.

Notice is further given that any person named in Section 86.778 of Oregon Revised Statutes has the right to have the foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of said principal as would not then be due had no default occurred), together with the costs, trustee’s and attorney’s fees and curing any other default complained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for sale. Other than as shown of record, neither the beneficiary nor the trustee has any actual notice of any person having or claiming to have any lien upon or interest in the real property hereinabove described subsequent to the interest of the trustee in the trust deed, or of any successor in interest to grantor or of any lessee or other person in possession of or occupying the property, except: Name and Last Known Address and Nature of Right, Lien or Interest SAMUAL HANNAH 1041 S 7TH STREET COOS BAY, OR 97420 Original Borrower ALTA HANNAH 1041 S 7TH STREET COOS BAY, OR 97420 For Sale Information Call: 800-280-2832 or Login to: www.auction. com In construing this notice, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to this grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by the trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any.

The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations.

The Chamber Minute:

Know how to change course I love stories so let me share a special one with you.

After several days of maneuvers in bad weather, a US Navy battleship confronted problems in the dark.

A lookout reported to the bridge, describing a Calendar of Events continued from page 5

16th and 23rd from 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM at the Coos History Museum; doors open at 5:30 pm.

Advanced registration for all three sessions is recommended but not required. Guests do not have to sign up for all three sessions, but those that do will receive the best overall experience. Annis Cassells, accomplished writer, poet and teacher, will be the instructor for the Memoir Wiring Workshop. Join us at the Coos History Museum for a three-part series teaching others about writing their life stories down on paper. This program will be hosted in-person and is open to the public with an admission price of $15 per session for non-members and $10 per session for CHM members. Those who wish to save time and be admitted directly to the program can pre-register and pay in advance by contacting the museum.

Reservations can be made by phone at 541-756-6320 or register in person at the museum’s front desk.

Walk-ins are welcome for all Coos History Museum programs! Established in 1891, The Coos County Historical Society is an

light he saw off the starboard bow. When the captain realized the two vessels were cutting a collision course, he sent a message, “we are on a collision course. Advise you change course 20 degrees.” The distant light flashed a return message, “advisable for you to change course 20 degrees.” The battleship captain sent, “I am a captain! Change course

20 degrees”. “I am a seaman second class, you had better change course 20 degrees.” The enraged captain sent, “I am a battleship, change course 20 degrees.”

Came the reply, “I am a lighthouse.” The battleship immediately changed course. Effective leaders know how to change course in the face of those lighthouse realities.

You are all leaders, whether it is in the family, business or community. Leaders who were faced with more change and opportunity this past couple years and will see more challenges in 2023.

The main opportunity is the mutual support of our friends and neighbors. In the Chamber we call that networking. So as we face lighthouse realities together, how

can you help? What is your unique talent? Your Chamber has a spot where you, and only you, have the ability to make things happen. If it’s not to be you, then whom are you willing to let determine our community’s future? Personally, I’d rather be part of the solution and I believe you would too.

Letters to the Editor

Opportunity not chaos

I would like to address the concerns Mr. Mike Powter expressed regarding our Container Port opportunity. Mr. Powter expressed fear that a successful effort to site a Container Port in Coos Bay will turn our home into a cesspool.

This cesspool will include smuggling of drugs, goods, and human beings. Our streets will become another Beirut. Mr. Powter sees heavy traffic, increased housing and infrastructure costs. I see a revival of when Coos Bay was the largest exporter of lumber in the world. I see a modern railroad that will connect us to the rest of the world. I see increased tax revenue from the business community that will fund modern infrastructure and public safety that will do away with "catch and release."

I see many, many new family wage jobs that will allow a better standard of living. President Franklin D Roosevelt said "we have nothing to fear but fear itself". Let us move forward with this Container Port project with enthusiasm and not let fear blind us.

Dick Leshley Coos Bay

“Is this OK, Hauser?”

Is it ok for Jack Hoffman to provide half-truths, misinformation, and false allegations in attempt to mislead the community regarding Hauser RFPD. In his letter printed on 3/17/2023 he made numerous allegations regarding surplus monies, no spending plans, and no improvement in community protections which are far from the truth. I have attended many of the same monthly Hauser Fire Board meetings as Mr. Hoffman, including the Budget committee, annual audit, and Fire/EMS trainings over the past couple years, and the reports and minutes of said meetings disclose quite the opposite of Mr. Hoffman’s portrayals. Their plans, money obligations, and improvements in Fire, Medical and Disaster Planning are all well documented. I have seen nothing but selfless acts and altruistic contributions made to and for the community of Hauser by their Fire Department, the Budget Committee, and its Board Members.

I can only assume that Jack Hoffman is intentionally attempting to mislead the Hauser Community in his letter to the editor as an attempt to secure a seat on the Hauser RFPD Board. Please talk with your Fire Board Members, your Budget Committee, your Fire Chief, and the volunteer members of your fire department for the truth in accounting and the direction of your fire department. Show up for the monthly board meetings to hear and be a part of the Hauser’s RFPD future. With the upcoming election for the Hauser RFPD Board of Directors, I encourage Hauser RFPD residents to factually and objectively choose your representatives.

A great success

The event for rock aficionados and beach lovers sponsored by the Lions Club and known as" Rockin' in Langlois" was a phenomenal success.

The number of attendees, the enthusiasm and engagement was extraordinary. More than 50 people attended Geoff Ogle's talk on identification of rocks. All 50 planned lunches were sold out. The rock tumblers were sold out. People were lined up to get the " name" of their mystery rocks.

Children had great fun inspecting all the rocks, picking their own agates , stacking rocks, etc. All of this could not have happened without the generous support of the community.

First, our gratitude for our businesses that donated towards our raffle basket: River View Gems and Gifts, Old Soul Studios, Octopus Herbal Garden, Sally Weymouth Photography, K Thomas Myers, G. Ogle, M.

Vegar, Vital Current Yoga and Massage Heather Carpenter, Ocean Harvest Tuna ,Dragonfly Farm & Nursery, Nicki's Knick-Knack's ,Wooden Nickel, Floras Creek Coffee Co, Langlois Market, Art by the Sea Gallery, Wild Rivers Wool Factory, Heidi Foss, Inge's Studio, Coastal Crafts, and B & B Farm Supply.

Next, many thanks go to to our wonderful rock experts: Geoff Ogle, Matt Vegar, & K. T. Thomas, to Dale Lee for a great exhibit of geology and to the vendors: Spirit Creations, Patti Curran, Cody Easom, Art by the Sea Gallery, the Mueller family, Coastal Crafts, Inge's Studio 2, and Heidi's zen stone stacking with demonstrations. Other cool features: Lola's Sweets who donated the best tasting cookies ever and the air plants on shells and drift wood by Bandon Home-grown Plants & Succulents. The effect of the vendor wares had been described as beautiful by many.

So it appears that people want this fair to be repeated as it generated so much interest and so please look for the "second annual Rockin' in Langlois" event coming up next year.

In memory of Helen Keller who was so instrumental in making the Lions Club the organization that it is today.

The real headline

It seems the headline for one of your front page stories is wrong. It should read, "House Republicans vote to repeal taxes on the wealthy forcing the middle class to pay more in taxes" Joy Newhart Coos Bay

We should all care

Anyone who values what First Amendment rights we have should be concerned about the ultimate fate of Julian Assange. This journalist is among the few who holds a flawless track record for having shared information that is accurate and truthful.

Assange remains under threat of extradition from the UK to the U.S., to be subjected to more torture and abuse for having committed the “crime” of real journalism, rather than the corporate drivel we’ve grown accustomed to, passing for "news" these days. If this man goes down, journalism as a profession goes down with him, leaving us all in darkness.

Corporate media’s airbrushed pundits will continue lying to us from their ivory towers regardless of what happens to Julian Assange.

Publishing facts that keep the public informed is not a crime. It is a public service. Exposing government misdeeds & corruption to the light of day is essential if we are to make informed choices as the electorate. This man should be getting a Nobel prize, not a prison sentence. He has broken no laws, therefore the case against him is completely bogus.

Without an informed electorate, we have no democracy. It’s that simple.

They should have listened

Recent house fire and death could of been avoided...house on Virginia ave between Ash and oak streets owned by Judy Burke of North Bend, Oregon... fire was caused by mentally ill son David burke....I had called and talked to case workers at hospital and S.D.S case workers and explained the home life and what was going to happen yet no one helped her.... yes David is now dead and Judy is alive but two lives were almost lost because of their oversight...they should of listened...

HOLY COW! HISTORY: Pink Parker’s Bizarre Monument to John Wilkes Booth

By J. MARK POWELL InsideSources.com

One day in June 1921, the editor of the Herald newspaper in Troy, Alabama, finally had enough. A clipping from the previous Sunday’s Brooklyn Daily Eagle lay on his desk. “An Assassin’s Monument,” the headline said. It had been reprinted in papers nationally.

The editor angrily banged out his reply on a typewriter. “The people of our city do not appreciate the publicity we are getting out of this thing,” he fumed.

You couldn’t blame them. After all, for 15 years, the tiny town of Troy had been stuck with a notoriety not of its own making. It was home to the only monument honoring a presidential assassin. And not just any president-killer, either, but the most despised villain of them all: John Wilkes Booth.

Blame it on Pink Parker.

It’s important to understand at the outset that Pink wasn’t a backwoods redneck. He was educated, a law officer, a devout Christian, a loving husband and father, a man well-liked by his neighbors.

With one huge exception. He had a burning hatred of Abraham Lincoln that grew into a psychotic obsession.

Because he simply was unable to let go of the terrible things that had happened to his family.

His story began quietly enough. Joseph Pinkney Parker was born into a respectable family in Coffee County, Alabama, in 1839. He had just finished his education when the Civil War broke out. Pink put on a gray uniform and marched off with the Confederate Army.

Returning home in 1865, he was trapped in the nightmare that was Reconstruction. The family farm was overrun by weeds, livestock gone, personal property stolen, his sister deeply embittered by the treatment she had received from Union soldiers. The county soon took his home for unpaid taxes.

He tried being a

schoolteacher but gave it up when his pupils’ parents couldn’t pay him. He got a job as a railroad “walker” carrying a sledgehammer and bag of iron spikes to keep rails in order. It was grueling, exhausting, low-paying work.

Pink Parker married and started a family.

(Relatives remembered he never called his wife anything but “Darling.”)

He was a dedicated Baptist, became a police officer, and eventually built a comfortable home in Troy.

But somewhere in his heart was a hurt too painful to heal, a cut so deep no scar could ever cover it.

Pink Parker simply never got over what the Yankees had done to his home, family and future.

And in his mind, the blame lay entirely at one man’s feet: Abraham Lincoln.

This otherwise friendly, likable man would erupt in a volcano of hatred whenever Lincoln’s name was mentioned. In fact, the only time he ever swore was when he heard Lincoln’s name, and the torrent of obscenity was so profane he was eventually kicked out of the Baptist Church because of it.

His family and neighbors tried to overlook this single glaring flaw.

But that grew harder and harder to do.

Then he devised a scheme in 1906. He would put up a marker honoring the man who took Lincoln’s life — assassin John Wilkes Booth.

The people of Troy were horrified one day when Pink displayed a 4-foot-tall stone marker inscribed, “Erected by PINK PARKER in honor of John Wilks (sic) Booth for killing Old Abe Lincoln.”

Pink offered to erect it on the courthouse lawn or in a city park. But nobody touched it with the proverbial 10-foot pole.

So, Pink put it in his front yard. He even sent a postcard to President Theodore Roosevelt, inviting him to come and see the monument for himself. (The White House never replied.)

J. Mark Powell With Pink’s house in a quiet residential neighborhood, few people saw the marker. Every so often, a newspaper reporter from a Northern state would write a story about it, causing great mortification to the people of Troy. But it had been bought with private money and placed on private property, so there wasn’t much they could do about it.

By 1921, Lincoln had been dead for 56 years.

To many people, the Civil War seemed as remote as the Vietnam War seems today. Pink was 82 then, nearly blind, and in rapidly failing health. Boys tipped over the monument as a Halloween prank. Pink’s family didn’t put it back up.

It was still lying in the dirt when he died that December.

His sons hauled the monument to the local stone carver. The writing was wiped away, replaced by Pink’s name and birth and death dates. What had started as a tribute to a murderer was turned into his tombstone.

And so it stands today in Oakwood Cemetery, tilting to one side like the leaning Tower of Pisa. No trace remains of the words that once reminded the world of Pink Parker’s inability to forgive and forget, to heal and move on.

Jury service is more than an obligation — it changes lives

By THE HONORABLE MARTIN E. STONE

Each week in Coos and Curry County, juries make decisions that change lives. They provide justice for victims and families, ensure that businesses honor their obligations, award damages to people injured through the negligence of others, and determine whether an individual is guilty of a crime.

This fundamental pillar of our democracy — the right to a trial by a jury of our peers — depends entirely on those who answer the call to service.

I know it can be tempting to see a jury summons as an inconvenience, particularly during a pandemic, but jury service is one of the most important civic duties you can participate in. When you report for jury duty, you are helping our courts ensure that everyone in our community receives the rights they are guaranteed by the Constitution.

The first week of May is Juror Appreciation Week, and your local judges and court staff would like to extend their gratitude to those who have responded for jury duty. In Coos County, that is nearly 2,000 jurors and in Curry County that is nearly 850 jurors who report for jury service each year.

Beyond serving out of obligation,

many who answer their jury summons also see the opportunity as an interesting learning experience.

Jury service is a unique opportunity to witness firsthand the inside of our courthouses and how court proceedings work.

Additionally, jury service is not a long commitment for most people.

For most of those who do serve, trials typically last one to two days. The vast majority of those who report for service do not actually serve on a jury.

However, just their presence in the jury assembly room helps move many cases to resolution. The prospect of a trial becomes very real when parties know that jurors are ready and waiting.

Also, Oregon law protects workers by barring employers from firing, threatening to fire, intimidating, or coercing employees because of their jury service. We would like to thank the many private companies, government agencies, small businesses, school districts, and all those who encourage and support their employees when they are called to jury service.

Your local courts - and your fellow community members - depend on your service. Thank you for doing your duty!

The Honorable Martin E. Stone is the presiding judge for the Coos and Curry County Circuit Court.

PHOTO COURTESY OF MARY SCHAMEHORN

By MARY SCHAMEHORN

I had read several articles over the years that indicated federal officials had, on several occasions, talked about moving the lighthouse (first photo) across the river, and one article mentioned it being on top of the hill overlooking the jetty.

In an article in December of 1915, I found a reference to that move, which as we know today, never took place.

"Milo Headley, superintendent of the seventeenth lighthouse district, was in Bandon on his first trip of inspection today. In company with Captain Wiren of the local station he went over the ground in the

As I See It: Moving the lighthouse Breakwater addition to which the lighthouse is to be moved and made final arrangements.

The work will probably commence in the near future."

But according to an article a found a few weeks later, in the January 6, 1916, Western World, they them changed their plans.

The article is headlined "Electric Power to Operate Lighthouse."

The article said "practically the only change made in removing the local plant to the south side of the river is from oil to electricity. An electric light will replace the present gas lamp and the foghorn will be operated by electricity.

Juice will be obtained from the local power company, but a small individual plant for generating electricity will be maintained for emergency. The gasoline engine now used in the lighthouse will be kept to produce the power for the auxiliary equipment. Mr. Headley also said that he believed it would be impossible for one man to handle the plant on this side (of the river); therefore in all probability the present (work) force will remain the same."

"Plank Roadway on Chicago Ave. Again Made Safe" is the headline on the front page of the July 6, 1956, Western World, talking about the elevated plank roadway extending from the north side of First street on Chicago avenue to the end of the wharf (second photo) and floating dock at the foot of the avenue."

The area discussed in the article is property on which now sits the Port of Bandon's Loft building.

"The project was initiated by George Dow of the Bandon Seafood & Cold Storage, who as fish buyer from outside trollers, had a boat unloading place at the end of the wharf.

The roadway had been condemned to vehicle traffic; it will again be safe for cars and trucks.

"Cooperation between the City of Bandon, the Port of Bandon, and Dow made the improvement possible."

At one time, in 1915, there was a discussion in Bandon about moving the lighthouse across the river. The move never took place. picture for two reasons, one because it's a great story about one of my all-time favorite Bandon High School coaches and two because on Tuesday (April 25), a sign honoring him will be dedicated at 4 p.m. just before the start of a high school track meet.

The article honoring long-time BHS football and baseball coach Dick Sutherland (third picture) appeared on the front page of the Feb. 11, 1981, Western World.

"Long-time Bandon high school football coach Dick Sutherland, who gave up his coaching duties in November after guiding the varsity Tigers for 27 years, was honored recently in Portland at the annual Hayward Banquet of Champions held at the Hilton Hotel.

"Mr. Sutherland, who has coached for 39 years, received one of four special merit awards, which went to people in the state who had made outstanding contributions to sports.

"Oregon State University basketball coach Ralph Miller was honored as the Man of the Year."

Sutherland was three times named Oregon 3A high school Coach of the Year; his teams earned two football state championships, in The Dalles in 1947 and in Bandon in 1968, and he coached two state runner-up football teams, in Bandon in 1965 and 1967. As the baseball coach at Bandon, he won the Sunset League championship 10 times, and coached the state champion runner-up Tiger team in 1962.

-------------------------I was sad to learn of the death of Kathy Coombe Hubbard, a long-time resident of Bandon, who died recently at the age of 85. Kathy and her late husband, Al, settled in Bandon in the Spring of 1989. Al died in 2008 at the age of 79.

Kathy was a longtime member of First Presbyterian Church in

Bandon, where John Hubbard was Pastor.

Kathy later became elder and deacon at the church. In 2010, Cheron, Pastor Hubbard's wife of 51 years died, and two years later on Aug. 12, 2012, Kathy and John married at the Presbyterian Church. John died in 2018.

One of my fondest memories of Kathy was when she performed on the Sprague Theater stage in My Fair Lady. I put together a book of photos from that Bandon Playhouse performance, and Kathy was thrilled to receive a copy of the book.

There will be a Celebration of Life for Kathy this Saturday, April 29, at 1 p.m. at the First Presbyterian Church.

------------------------I recently read an account on line of a head-on collision in Canyon county, Idaho, which claimed the life of a 67-year-old Bandon woman; unfortunately she was never identified. I learned later that before moving from Bandon she may have burned out in a house fire, but that is pretty much all I know.

------------------------In an update from City Manager Dan Chandler this week, the council learned that the Grocery Outlet project "is moving forward as of earlier this month, though they are having challenges with cost and financing."

As far as the 48-unit apartment project off Seabird, he said "the project is on hold because of construction costs. The owner may be looking at other options for the property, including a possible high-end RV park. Nothing has been finalized."

In commenting on a joint housing project between the school district and the city, Chandler said they will be getting a memo soon from their advisers Tom Kemper and Bruce Wood detailing how best to move forward. "Kemper and

Wood have done more housing than probably anyone in the state," said the city manager.

"We have commissioned a geotechnical study as well, which will inform the various options for the property.

Options include modular or prefab options, possibly including modular multi-family," Chandler said.

-------------------------I was recently taken on a tour of Bandon Dunes Golf Resort by Resort manager Don Crowe and Wild Rivers Coast Alliance Executive Director Marie Simonds. It was exciting to see the beautiful new 10,000 square foot restaurant/ steak house near the Old MacDonald course, which will seat 180 people, and is expected to be completed sometime in August.

Excavation work is also being done on a new 19-hole par-3 course, the proceeds from which will go to Wild Rivers Coast Alliance, much like the net proceeds from the 13hole Bandon Preserve course. WRCA, founded

by Dunes owner Mike Keiser, helps support projects that will bring lasting conservation, economic and community benefits to the South Coast. The new course is expected to open in October 2024.

------------------------People have been expressing concern, and rightfully so, about the unfinished ODOT project along the highway and at the entrance to Old Town, which is blighted with orange cones and other markers.

I contacted the state, and Chris Hunter, PE, southwest area manager for ODOT, said: "The delays we are experiencing are partially due to weather and also delays in getting materials.

that the city requested to be added to the project, and then finish up everything. Unfortunately, the parts are still out about 12 weeks, so this puts us to mid-July.

"In the meantime, our construction crew will look at getting the orange cones off the road where appropriate," said Hunter. I am assuming the RRFB parts have something to do with the pedestrian crossing requested by the City to link a new parking area

on the southeast side of the highway, with Old Town.

------------------------The Bandon Historical Society Museum will be hosting a program, "Ask The Experts - Your Local History Questions," to be held at the museum on Saturday, May 20, beginning at 1 p.m.

In a press release, museum spokesman Jim Proehl, said, "The freewheeling program will feature Bandon Mayor Mary Schamehorn and archaeologist Reg Pullen." Proehl, the radio voice of "A little history

from the museum in Bandon," will moderate.

The audience will be invited to ask local history questions. Admission to the program and to the museum May 20 will be free all-day, courtesy of Chas. Waldrop Real Estate.

------------------------City of Bandon voters are reminded of the three ballot measures which will be voted on in the May 16 primary election, concerning increases in the city's three utilities, water, sewer and electric. The city is asking voters to

increase the base rate for residential in-city water use by $4 a month; for sewer the increase will be $4 a month, plus a 25-cent charge for additional 1,000 gallons of water used.

The electric increase will be $5 a month on the base rate for inside city customers and $10 for outside city, plus an increase in the per kilowatt charge of 1.2 cents per kilowatt hour, which will bring the residential cost to 8.75 per kilowatt hour for the first 650 kwh per month both inside and outside

the city, and 9.46 for other residential usage.

Commercial and other accounts will see a pro-rated increase.

Bandon is believed to be the only electric utility in the country that must go to the voters to increase rates because of an initiative petition which changed the city's charter to require rate increases be voted on. At a recent council meeting, we learned of the huge increases faced by the utility company for infrastructure, including a 344% increase in 15kva trans-

formers, 308% increase in 25kva transformers, and a 322 percent increase in the cost of utility poles.

This is the reality of the cost to run an electric department. It transcends politics, opinions and comes down to keeping the lights on.

We urge the voters of Bandon to support these rate increases. I personally hate to think of the downside, which ultimately could mean we are forced to sell our utilities. Our utilities belong to all of us. Let's keep them in local hands.

Musical quartet returning to Bandon The community is invited to an encore performance May 7 from 2 to 3 p.m.., at Holy Trinity Catholic Church, 355 Oregon Ave, Bandon. Back by popular demand wiil be cellist and Langlois resident Dace Sultanov, accompanied by local concert pianist Crystal Landucci, violinist Sara Mautner and Coquille resident, artist, and cellist-Kimberly Wurster. A reception

and art showing by Kimberly Wurster follows the concert. The four of them will dazzle and inspire their audience with pieces by Vivaldi, Strauss, Haydn, Brahms, Paganini and more.

Dace (Dot-she), born in Latvia and trained at the Moscow Conservatory, moved to Langlois in June 2022.

She transformed her audience into a standing room only crowd at the an-

nual Bach Birthday party in March and will be sure to thrill audiences again.

During this concert Dace honors her parents; her mother, Dace’s first music teacher, and father, who passed on his love of flora and gardening. To learn more about Dace please look her up on You Tube.

Kimberly Wurster’s Fine Art is a wonderful gift to the Coquille/Coos

County area. Kimberly enjoys painting a variety of subjects but has a fondness for birds and wildlife. Her artwork has earned numerous awards for excellence in domestic and international competition.

Please join us as we gather in community to embrace the beauty of classical music and fine art. Suggested donation at the door.

Circles in the Sand season begins

BY BREE LAUGHLIN The World

Circles in the Sand have been appearing at Bandon Beaches. That’s right - the season has officially begun.

Artist Denny Dyke and his team have been creating walkable labyrinths for about a decade at the Face Rock Viewpoint in Bandon. The artists said they are excited to continue the journey and share their love of the labyrinth and art with the world.

“Whether you are looking for a peaceful way to connect with nature or seeking a meditative practice to calm your mind, Circles in the Sand offers a unique and beautiful experience to help you feel refreshed and rejuvenated,” said Bethe Patrick, Circles in the sand artist and administrative director.

The first labyrinth draw series of the summer season was dedicated to an “ocean of love.” Volunteer artists created intricate paths and designs to reflect their value of the ocean environment and to honor the life of a close friend. The team even brought bubble wands to celebrate the occasion.

Upcoming draws are scheduled for the mornings of May 6 through 8 and again May 20 through 23. A full schedule can be found on the Circles in the Sand website: www. sandypathbandon.com.

Dear Abby By

Abigail Van Buren

Dear Abby:

I'm in love with a man I met online. We have been together three years, and I want us to start talking about our future. He has never been married, but he has been in long-term relationships before.

When would be a good time to discuss this with my boyfriend? How would I approach this discussion? Is there anything else we could do like have a commitment ceremony? He's afraid of being hurt, which is understandable. His ex used him and led him on for eight years. She would say she loved him but never spent any time with him. She'd also go on trips with other men and wouldn't invite him. I feel horrible that he was treated that way. What can I do to show him I am not her, and that I'm here for the long haul?

I have asked him to marry me twice. I'm having plastic surgery next month, and I told him that when I'm healed I am going to ask him once more. I'm excited but scared at the same time because I'm afraid he's going to let his fear get the best of him. How can I put his mind at ease? He's amazing. He has turned my entire life around, and he's the one I want to spend my life with. He truly is my one and only.

— NERVOUS IN CALIFORNIA

DEAR NERVOUS: This man's previous girlfriend may have led him on for eight years, but he allowed it. After three years with you, he should know what kind of person you are -- the drawbacks as well as your singular attributes. Please do not allow him to do to you what she did to him, which is take up your precious time with no intention of making your relationship permanent.

I see no reason to wait until after your cosmetic surgery unless you are counting on him to take care of you during recovery. As I see it, you have two choices: Tell him you need a commitment and be prepared for him to run, or tolerate the status quo. If he loves you as much as you love him, he shouldn't run away from the idea of spending his life with you. If he does run, you are better off without him.

Dear Abby: I gave a newlywed couple a picnic basket filled with everything you would need for a picnic, including a quilt I had made for them to celebrate their wedding. My husband delivered it to the new husband, and when asked what it was, my husband replied that it was something for HIM. Well, I have heard nothing more about the gift, especially the quilt! I don't think the young man ever opened the basket. I did mention something to the wife once about what was inside the basket, and her expression was blank. It has been over a year. Should I forget about it or be bold and ask?

— GIFT-GIVER IN NEW YORK

DEAR GIFT-GIVER: Be bold and ask. If the wife looked blank, it was probably because she knew nothing about the gift your husband had told her husband was for "him" instead of for "them."

Fishermen-developed “banger bar” helps reduce risk of injury on crab boats, OSU study finds

BY MOLLY ROSBACH Guest Article

Dungeness crab fishermen are at high risk for on-the-job injury, but having a metal bar to bang crab pots against as they harvest can help them prevent injury, an Oregon State University study found.

The study sought to determine whether the fishermen-designed “banger bar” actually improves worker safety aboard crab vessels. The metal bar is installed atop the crab-sorting table and makes it easier for fishermen to empty the crab pots they haul up from the ocean floor, but there is no industry standard on whether crabbers install one or how they configure it.

It wasn’t feasible to record precise measurements on the deck of a commercial crab boat, so to capture fishermen’s movement, muscle exertion and injury potential, researchers recreated the deck setting within OSU’s Occupational Ergonomics and Biomechanics Laboratory.

The process of lifting and dumping crab pots puts fishermen at risk for repetitive motion injuries, said OSU associate professor Jay Kim, who leads the lab in the College of Public Health and Human Sciences. “This was our very first attempt to quantify those injuries in this fishery using biomechanical measures,” Kim said.

Dungeness crab is

one of the most valuable commercial fisheries on the West Coast, producing around 26% of all annual fishing revenue, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

In Oregon, the 2019-20 season brought in $72.7 million, the state Department of Fish and Wildlife reported.

The OSU study came about thanks in part to the Fishermen Led Injury Prevention Program, through which OSU researchers connect with fishermen to work together to improve safety in the industry, said Laurel Kincl, co-author on the paper and an associate professor of environmental and occupational health.

“We think that bringing science and evidence about interventions helps inform those deckhands, captains, owners and fabricators to quantify the benefit or the risk,” she said. In surveys and outreach to the crabbing community, researchers learned that whether a vessel had a banger bar installed was based on individual preference, but the fishermen who used a bar felt it worked well to prevent injury, Kincl said.

For the study, the research team used electrodes and reflective markers placed on the participants’ bodies along with 3D motion-capture cameras and force plates in the lab to record muscle

movement, force and torque data. They tested five conditions for the banger bar, simulating the variation observed on commercial crabbing vessels: no bar, a flat bar at three different heights, and a triangular bar.

Participants had to tilt the crab pot and hit it against the bar or against the surface of the table, repeating the task three times for each of the five conditions, with rests in between. Their muscle activity data was then analyzed to determine which banger bar position required the

least exertion.

Researchers found that the highest flat-bar setting and the triangular bar were the best for participants’ bodies, showing reduced strain on the shoulders and lower back, specifically the trapezius, deltoid and erector spinae muscles, compared with no bar or a low bar. The biceps and triceps also showed less strain with higher bar height.

While the participants were not fishermen, researchers had two commercial Dungeness crab fishermen and a fabrica-

WITH A HOME STANDBY GENERATOR

The work is also asymmetrical, placing a greater strain on one side of the body. For this reason, Kia said, the researchers recommend that fishermen rotate tasks — though, Kincl noted, switching sides on the crab sorting table requires being trained on other tasks on the vessel.

Future research will also look at the “block,” the crane mechanism that hauls crab pots up from the water, and how to minimize the risk of injury from pulling in the crab-pot line.

tor verify the accuracy of the study setup and pot-handling methods prior to collecting data.

“Even though the crab pot was empty and lighter than typical in the field, we still observed significantly high muscle activity and joint moment,” said Kiana Kia, lead author on the study and a postdoctoral researcher in Kim’s lab.

“We can say that the activity could be even higher in the field. This task is really demanding and can increase the risk of injury in the low back and shoulders.”

Family and friends are invited to sign the online guestbook at www.coosbayareafunerals.com

Harold “Harry” Wayne Caughell January 22, 1939 – March 30, 2023

A Celebration of Life will be held for Harry W. Caughell, 84, of Langlois, on Saturday, May 6, 2023 at 1:00 p.m. at the Langlois Cheese Factory, 94179 Allen Boice Drive. A potluck will follow. A private inurnment will take place at Denmark Cemetery.

Harold “Harry”, “Hank”, “Bucket” Wayne Caughell was born on January 22, 1939 to Charlie and Gladys Caughell in Langlois, Oregon. He died on March 30, 2023 at Bay Area Hospital in Coos Bay, with his wife, Peggy, at his bedside.

Harry was raised in Langlois with older brother, Clint and younger brother, Jerry. He graduated from Langlois school in 1957, where he got the nickname “Bucket”, then went on to earn a certificate in welding from SWOCC. His first job was at the Langlois Cheese Factory where his father was the head cheese maker, his mother was the bookkeeper, and all three brothers were doing various jobs, including building boxes used to ship the cheese all over the world. In 1963, he married a local girl named Tamara Miller,

who brought a lovely daughter named Cheri into the marriage. Happily on May 24, 1965, Tamara gave birth to a son named David. Harry was very family oriented and loved taking them hunting, camping and riding out on the dunes. In about 1980, Harry took David on a flight in a Bell 47 helicopter which was the inspiration for David to have a career flying helicopters and jets.

In 1975, Harry went to work driving chip trucks for Stalcup Trucking where he worked for 26 years, retiring in 2000.

In 1983, he married a special woman named Peggy, who brought three children named Esther, Andrea and Victor into the marriage. After retiring, Harry and Peggy had many wonderful years of travel with their trailer, going around the U.S. and flying to Hawaii three times. For the last 16 months, he resided at the Townhouse in Coquille, Oregon. The family would like to express their sincere appreciation to the owners, Cobus and Jolynn Best. With Tammy and Jennifer, they provided outstanding care for Harry. He passed away due to complications

A Celebration of Life will be held for Helen “Susie” Marcy, 88, of Coos Bay, on Friday, June 2, 2023 from 12:00 – 3:00 p.m. at Bastendorff Beach county park pavilion.

Susie was born on June 2, 1934 in Oakland, California to Carl Frederick Yahr and Helen Hazel (Gretler) Yahr. She passed away peacefully on March 11, 2023 in Coos Bay with her family by her side.

Susie went to school at Redeemer Lutheran in Oakland and moved to Crescent City when she was 15 where she finished high school. She moved to Oregon later on and lived in Brookings and Eugene. She moved to Coos Bay in 1970 to be near her father and there she met L. Dale Marcy who was a pharmacist at Bi-Mart. They married in

October of 1971 and enjoyed 27 wonderful years together until his passing in 1998.

Susie touched so many lives with her generously donated time at the Bay Area Hospital in Coos Bay, Oregon. She was a life member of the Bay Area Hospital Auxiliary, where she dedicated a large part of the last 35 plus years helping and working with others there. Most notable were her years with the junior volunteers, infusion outpatient services and the Auxiliary Vice President.

participating in a bowling league during her younger days until her wrist said no more. She also walked the local beaches for shells, driftwood and other finds. Many are still at her home where she lived for over 50 years.

Wanda L. Williford, age 87, passed away on Monday, April 17, 2023, after a battle with dementia and other health conditions. She was born Wanda Louise Hughes in North Bend, Oregon, on May 4, 1935, daughter of Eugene T. Hughes and Florence M. Lambert. Wanda graduated from North Bend High School, class of 1953, and attended business school in Oakland, California.

She met her husband, John Williford, in 1955 at the North Bend Air Force Station (Oregon), and they were married at her mother’s home in December 1955. Soon after their marriage, John was transferred to California, and for the remainder of John’s time in the U.S. Air Force Wanda followed and supported him as they lived at many, mostly small, Air Force radar sites throughout the U.S., including two years in Colorado Springs and four years in the Philippines. During their travels, Wanda worked various jobs, eventually beginning a career in banking in Slidell, Louisiana. After moving to Bethel, Alaska, in 1985, Wanda began working for Alaska USA Credit Union, where she was bank manager.

Upon John’s second retirement in 1994, he and Wanda returned to Oregon. They bought a small Victorian house built in 1908 in North Bend, which they renovated and made their forever home, a home that Wanda loved and was immensely proud of.

In 1995, Wanda founded Native American Technology Corporation (NATECH), a small business dedicated to finding highly qualified employ-

ees to staff government contracts. Today, NATECH is a thriving small business with contracts with Northop Grumman, LEIDOS, CSSI, and the Smithsonian, to name a few. Wanda was proud of NATECH’s success, especially when it was awarded the Portland District Small Family-Owned Business of the Year in 2019 and the Pacific Northwest Region Small Business Subcontractor of the Year in 2022. With Wanda’s passing, the company will continue the strong foundation she and John built, with their family at the helm.

Wanda was also very proud of her Coos Indian heritage. She was an Elder of the Confederate Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians (CTCLUSI). She was descended from Caroline Evans, who received an allotment from the federal government for land that is now part of Shore Acres State Park. In April 1998, Wanda was elected to the CTCLUSI Tribal Council.

She was the first woman elected as Tribal Council Chairperson for the tribe, a position she held from January 2000 until she left Tribal Council in February 2001. Under her leadership, tribal housing was built, administration and health care facilities were established, culturally important Tribal land was re-acquired from the Federal government, and she helped launch the Tribe’s first casino. She was also a strong proponent for the education of our Tribal youth, and she contributed money for scholarships for Tribal members to attend college.

Wanda is survived by three daughters and their husbands, Vicki and

Kerwin Faciane of North Bend, OR, Wendy and Bob Garcia of Westlake, OR, and Jacquie and Larry Armstrong of Yuma, AZ; four grandchildren, Cori Kelly of Aldie, VA, Ashley Faciane of San Diego, CA, Amanda Craig of Bend, OR and John Faciane of San Francisco, CA; and one great granddaughter, Samantha Kelly, of Aldie, VA. Wanda was preceded in death by her husband of 65 years, John W. Williford; and her parents, Eugene and Florence Hughes.

Following her cremation, her ashes will be placed beside John at Sunset Memorial Park Cemetery in Coos Bay. A memorial service is planned tentatively for June 11, 2023 at the CTCLUSI Tribal Hall in Coos Bay. Details to follow. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the following: Confederate Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians Education Scholarship Fund, 1245 Fulton Avenue, Coos Bay, OR 97420.
