CARS, CARS, and MORE CARS Northwest’s Premier Car Enthusiast’s Show Sept. 18 The Oregon Festival of Cars has been showcasing beautiful automobiles on the lawn of the Deschutes Historical Museum since 2018. After a lost year, the cars are back in 2021, better than before. Drop by the museum Saturday September 18, between 10:00 am and 3:00 pm to wander among some very attractive examples of automotive technology. The show is free and the public is encouraged to vote for their favorite auto in a number of categories. Voting closes at 2:00 pm. While you are here, come into the Deschutes Historical Museum to visit Bosco, a 1907 Model 3 Holsman motor buggy, brought to Bend by H.C. Ellis for use as a service vehicle by the Deschutes Telephone Company. Discover the car’s story and uncover more history about Deschutes County. General Admission is $5 and kids 17 years and under and members are free. THE HOMESTEADER 3 Bill and Jan This Month It’s a Couple’s Corner. Lewis Jan and Bill Lewis have been volunteering at the museum since 2007. They arrive together, but generally they work By Sue Fountain on different floors. Though Jan has done some work on the third floor, she now enjoys working the admissions desk and greeting people. She says she has performed many jobs at DCHS, from filing documents to sewing buttons on an old dress. Bill likes to work on the third floor where the archives and donations reside. He has identified and organized all the guns that have been donated. Jan was born and raised in Bend, and can claim to have been born in the old hospital on Franklin Avenue. She started her education at COCC, then transferred to Southern Oregon College in Ashland. When she returned to Bend with her teaching degree she was hired at Kenwood School. Later she moved to Juniper Elementary where she taught first and second grades for 30 years before retiring. An activity that she really enjoyed before retirement was participating in a clogging class.

Payne, Salem, Oregon post office clerk, stamp and cover collector who said, "my stamp and cover collecting hobby led to old covers (envelopes) postmarked from post offices in Oregon that no longer exist. In order to know where these places were I started a list of dead post offices. Others gave me help and I made research in old postal guides in various libraries, but such directories gave no dates of establishment or discontinuation of offices. I interested Lewis McArthur in the subject and through him and a close friend in Washington, D.C., we hired girls to copy the Oregon post office ledgers, about 4000 work sheets, in the National Archives! From those sheets I have compiled the Oregon post office list of all offices! They could be obtained in no other way and from no other source. All of this information will be in the third edition of Lewis A. McArthur's OREGON GEOGRAPHIC NAMES which will be off the Binford & Mort press in Portland November 1952. It is a must for history lovers and collectors." From Mr. Payne's list of Oregon post offices we have compiled two lists of Wasco county post offices. The first list are the 55 offices within the present boundary of Wasco county. The distances indicated from The Dalles are by the original roads, not our longer highways.

April 1969 Portland, Ore. 97201 THE AGES OF SOME HOLOCENE VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS IN THE NEWBERRY VOLCANO AREA, OREGON By N. V. Peterson* and E. A. Groh** Several episodes of volcanism of Holocene age {since the last 11,000 years} are well recorded within Newberry Crater and on the flanks of Newberry Volcano in central Oregon. Newberry Volcano is a huge shield volcano which rises from the basalt plateau south of Bend and east of the Cascade Range. At the summit of the shield is a large caldera with two lakes and a variety of fresh volcanic features. On its flanks are lava flows that post­ date the volcano. Of particular interest are the flows that erupted from a rift zone which extends northwest for 20 miles from the crater to Lava Butte and beyond (plate 1). How old are these rocks? How long ago did all this happen? These are the questions most frequently asked by visitors who view the shiny black obsidian domes in Newberry Crater, the spiny black lava flows by the Lava Cast Forest campground, or those by Lava Butte. There has been much speculation by geologists and others on the age of these events, and their guesses range from a few hundred years to a few thousand years. We are never completely satisfied with guesses, so are continually looking for ways to establish the exact sequence and timing of the volcanic eruptions. For the past several years, as a secondary project whi Ie studying the extensive and varied volcanic features of central Oregon {Oregon Dept.

Bristol, Rogue River, Chairman R. W. deWeese, Portland Harold Banta, Baker STATE GEOLOGIST R. E. Corcoran FOREWORD Oregon probably has the greatest diversity of volcanic rock types and landforms of any region in the conterminous United States. The area centering around Bend has come to be known as Oregon's "moon country" because the very young volcanic rocks in this vicinity show features similar to what have been photographed on the lunar surface. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has, therefore, spent considerable time studying various aspects of the terrain in central Oregon because its scientists have interpreted certain lunar forms, such as the sinuous rilles, as volcanic structures. Mr. Ronald Greeley, the author of this report, believes that some of the smaller lunar rilles probably resulted from lava-tube collapse. Up to the present time, there has been relatively little study of lava tubes in the western United States to determine their origin, nor have these unusual structures been described in sufficient detail to be classified into different types. Mr. Greeley has selected several lava tubes in the Bend area for such a study because of their excellent development and relative ease of access.

It is, of course, the name of a drainage which arises partly in Idaho, flows in a northerly direction along the state line in Malheur County, Oregon, and finally crosses into Owyhee County, Idaho, where it empties into the Snake River (figure 1). The name Succor Creek also carries with it the associ- ation of other names such as Rockville School, McKenzie Ranch, Specimen Ridge, Fenwick Ranch, and Owyhee Reservoir, which in the past have been landmarks for the important fossil beds. The Succor Creek Formation The areas mentioned above are located within Miocene lake-bed sedi- ments which crop out all along Succor Creek and are wide spread H the general area.

A. Hanna Company, Cleveland, Ohio, for the produotion of nickel from the Nickel Mountain deposit neal' the town of Riddle, Douglas County, Oregon. In addition, signing of the contracts marked the opening of an important ehapter in the domestic mining in­ dustry 8ince no nickel has ever been produced in this country on a commercial scale from ore mined in continental United States (a total of a few hundred tons 1s reoorded as a by-product in smelting copper or8s). We have always depended on Canada for our nickel. Start of nickel production at Riddle w111 make the United States partly inde­ pendent of outside sources of this very strategio metal. Beoause of the importanoe of the Nickel Mountain project, it seems desirable to assemble background desoriptive material as a record. Geography Nickel Yountain 1s about 5 miles northwest of Riddle, an incorporated town in Douglas County, as shown on the aocompanying index map. Elevation of the summit of the mountain is '533 feet. The nickel deposit, occupying much of the upper part of the mountain, may best be reaohed from the Hanna plant site which is about 3i miles west of Riddle.
