DAVIS CREEK ROAD BRIDGE TO BE REPLACED WITH MODULAR STEEL STRUCTURE By The Chronicle A prefabricated 120-foot modular steel bridge will be used to replace the Davis Creek Road Bridge near Randle, which was destroyed during a flood event in November 2006. The Lewis County Commission awarded the construction con- tract this week to the lone bidder, Big R Manufacturing, out of Gree- ley, Colo., for $387,315. The Federal Emergency Man- agement Agency will cover 87.5 percent of the cost. Washington State Emergency Management and Lewis County will each fund 12.5 percent. The engineer’s estimate for this project was $344,960, ac- cording to Lewis County Public The Chronicle / File Photo Works.

Weed

Continued from Main 1 Croy looked around, and saw that on the back deck of a nearby apartment, there were a few more marijuana plants sur- rounded by wire mesh and cov- ered with a clear piece of plastic, according to his police report he wrote about the incident. Right now local police deal with two separate and sometimes conflicting pot laws: One pertain- ing to medical marijuana and the other regarding recreational pot. While anyone over the age of 21 can possess less than 40 grams of marijuana, only those with a state license or a medical marijuana card can grow it. “Because it is now regulated by the state, you must have a li- cense to grow it, process it or sell it,” said Centralia Chief Bob Berg. Doing it on your own is still illegal, Berg said. Those who grow marijuana without a li- cense or a green card can still face cultivation or manufacture of marijuana charges. So on Saturday, Croy spent 2 ½ hours determining whether or not the pot plants in question be- longed to someone with a medi- cal marijuana card. He located a phone number for the woman who lived in the apartment with the pot plants on the deck and called her, accord- ing to his report.

Golf McIlroy Surges to Lead With 67 at Soggy PGA LEADING: McIlroy the Favorite; Tiger Disappoints Again By Paul Newberry The Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. — On a soggy day at Valhalla, Rory McIlroy put himself in a famil- iar position: leading the PGA Championship. For Tiger Woods, this is also becoming the norm. Another major disappoint- ment. McIlroy, the overwhelming favorite from Northern Ireland, started on the back nine after a 50-minute rain delay Friday, made a couple of early birdies, then claimed the outright lead for the first time when he rolled in a 30-foot eagle putt at the 18th hole. McIlroy picked up two more birdies in his final three holes for a 4-under 67, sending him to the clubhouse with a two-stroke lead over Ryan Palmer. Some of the other top con- tenders — including Lee West- wood and Kevin Chappell, who were tied with Palmer for the lead after the first round — were playing in the afternoon.

NFL NFL Dynasties Disappeared; Could Seahawks Be One? By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press The NFL does what it can via the draft, salary cap, free agency and, coming soon, expanded playoffs to engineer a sense of parity, making each team and each fan base believe it has a chance to win on any given Sun- day — and to reach any season's Super Bowl. Those efforts might finally have brought about the death of dynasties: It's been a decade since the won the 2003 and 2004 titles, the longest stretch without a repeat champion in nearly a half-centu- ry of Super Bowls. "The days of the dominant teams may be gone forever," said Ted Sundquist, a former general manager of the Denver Bron- cos and their director of college scouting when they won back- to-back Super Bowls in the late 1990s. "It's hard. It's beyond hard. There are different types of play- ers now, different types of sys- tems set up. The game's changed."

Lewis County HiStory of — est. 1845 —

Winlock Future Is Encouraging n 1886, the Lewis County Uncle Jack’s an Early Version of Today’s Popular Olympic Club IBee wrote that Winlock’s future was very bright. “This is the natural outlet for the Cowlitz river, Big Bottom and Toutle river communities and the upper Chehalis,” the newspaper wrote. “We have a road now from here to Boist- fort prairie and one from there to Mauermann prairie. And the Willapa country will some day come here to get to the railroad and if there is ever a railroad built through Cowlitz Pass it will come through Winlock as this is the nature course in Gray’s Harbor. Napavine may have the county seat or it may be taken to Little Falls, but Win- lock will, some day in the near future, be a great railroad town.”

Pay for Hay or Give Cow n 1890, Mr. Robinson had Ia deal for the owner of a stray cow. “A cow strayed away from pasture last night and wandered into L.J. Robinson’s barn and ate up all the hay,” The Centra- lia Weekly wrote. “In trying to get out she lost her bell and Mr. Robinson either wants the cow Submitted by Dan Duffy / for Our Hometowns back or the owner to come and “Uncle Jack’s Bar” is written on the back of this photo.
