Nearly 50 years later, Rose compiled various stories he has written about Riffe into a book, “Stories of Riffe, Wash.,” which was recently published by Gor- ham Printing in Centralia. “There is a lot of people that drive by Riffe Lake with no un- derstanding that there were up- wards of 2,000 people that lived there that were forced to relo- cate,” Rose said. “It’s important to put down the history of what was there before, a thriving com- munity there.” In the book, Rose writes about how Riffe was founded courtesy image and how Tacoma City Light built The cover of Buddy Rose’s recent book includes a photo of the now submerged town of Rife. the dam.

Hunting, Fishing Outdoors Hiking, Birding Cavern on Oregon Coast is Worth Exploring By Zach Urness The Statesman Journal OTTER ROCK, Ore. — If a place can be judged based on the names of its landmarks, you'd have to conclude that the Devil is among the most influential citizens on the Oregon Coast. On a trip down Highway 101, above the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean, you'll encoun- ter a churn, an elbow, a lake, a staircase and a punch bowl all named for the Prince of Dark- ness. Which of course raises the question: What sort of deal was struck for the sandy beaches and dramatic cliffs that make the Oregon Coast one of the most beautiful places in the world? Food for thought. Or maybe not. A group of friends and I were considering this clearly rational question during a trip down the Central Coast when we arrived at the aforementioned Devils Punch Bowl State Natural Area, 17 miles south of Lincoln City (and eight miles north of New- port). While it's easy to have a bit of fun with the Oregon Coast's Zach Urness / Statesman Journal affinity for naming places in This July 2011 ile photo shows the view of Devils Punch Bowl on the Oregon Coast.

Delivered by Can Auburn’s magical ride continue? The UPS Team Performance Index (UPS TPI) meas- ures overall efficiency and teamwork based on six key components: offense, defense, miscues, special teams, winning percentage and quality of opponent. For more information and the full UPS TPI rankings, visit espn.com/UPS.

BUFFALO WILD WINGS BOWL: MICHIGAN (UPS TPI: 109) VS. KANSAS STATE (UPS TPI: 108) It was a strange season for Michigan. The Wolverines averaged over 6.0 yards per play in six of 12 games and under 3.0 yards in three games. That’s a huge swing. Kansas State rallied from a 2–4 start to finish 7–5. Michigan 28-24 ARMED FORCES BOWL: NAVY (UPS TPI: 106) VS. MIDDLE TENNESSEE (UPS TPI: 101) Navy quarterback Keenan Reynolds, one of five quarterbacks nationally with 1,000 yards rushing, leads college football with 29 rushing touchdowns. Middle Tennessee has forced 31 turnovers, which is tied for fifth-most in the nation. Navy 37–33 MUSIC CITY BOWL: OLE MISS (UPS TPI: 109) VS. GEORGIA TECH (UPS TPI: 104) Only two teams in the nation — Army and Navy — have completed fewer passes than Georgia Tech (87) in 2013. Good thing for Ole Miss that it excels against the run; the Rebels give up 4.0 yards per carry, third-fewest in the SEC. Ole Miss 34-24 ALAMO BOWL: OREGON (UPS TPI: 122) VS.

After hearing them scream, the nearby farmers saved the en- gineers after fighting the swift currents for two hours. “The rescue was accom- plished with the river at flood stage on the coldest day this year,” The Centralia Daily Chronicle reported. “The en- gineers, benumbed with cold and burdened with boots and heavy rain-proof clothing, un- able to gain the shore against the swirling current, saved them- selves by clinging in willows and small log jams out in the stream. They lost two boats and drilling equipment valued at more than $500, in addition to records of their work for the past two weeks. … “The engineers have been taking soundings in riffles along the river from Adna. Their study is relative to flood control.” The engineers remarked af- ter their rescue they thought they were “goners.” Submitted by L.J.
