In a space of five years Marylanders had seen one of their United States senators, their former governor, and then their sitting governor haled into federal court on criminal charges.3 Yet United States v.Mandel 4 is disturbing, not merely because it suggests that Marylanders again were victimized by one of their top 1. 18 U.S.C. § 1341 provides in pertinent part: Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises . for the purpose of executing

    History of MACo 5 Executive Secretaries & Executive Directors Robert Lovelace: June 1960 - November 1961 Bill Ratchford: November 1961 - October 1962 Thomas Kelly: October 1962 - January 1964 Bill Ratchford: January 1964 - November 1968 Joe Murnane: November 1968 - May 1978 Wallace “Wally” Hutton: October 1978 - July 1981 Althea “Tee” O'Connor: September 1981 - August 1985 Raquel Sanudo: June 1985 - June 1991 David Bliden: July 1991 - Present Since the first Executive Director was hired in 1960, the men and women who have held that position have come from varied career backgrounds. The responsibilities of the position have changed and duties have been expanded and diversified. Similarly, the MACo staff has grown, from the charter staff of Executive Secretary Lovelace and a stenographer, to the seven staff members who serve the organization today. Each Executive Director has not only redefined the position, but, along with his or her staff, has helped to shape and develop MACo itself. Robert Lovelace As discussed in the previous chapter, Robert Lovelace, a former city manager, began his duties with the Association upon the establishment of the Symons Hall office beginning June 1, 1960. Per the agreement with the University of Maryland, he joined their staff as a lecturer in American Government. As the first Executive Secretary, as it was then called, Lovelace set the pace and provided a basic structure for those that would come after him. As is the case today, in 1960 the SACCOM Board was made up of county officials for whom Association service was only one aspect of their responsibilities; Lovelace was the first person involved with the organization that could focus wholly on its development.

  • The Snake River Basin Adjudication the Future of Water in the West
    THE SNAKE RIVER BASIN ADJUDICATION THE FUTURE OF WATER IN THE WEST THE SNAKE RIVER BASIN ADJUDICATION THE FUTURE OF WATER IN THE WEST by Alvin M. Josephy III A Thesis Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Environmental Studies The Evergreen State College June 2006 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many people contributed to this thesis. All of them deserve mention here. Only a few can be: Adam Sowards, Assistant Professor of History introduced me to the writings of Mark Fiege and Richard White during a summer seminar, and showed me how to think of history in terms of environmental studies. Char Simons gave me the confidence to write more than emails. John Perkins re-introduced me in his patient way to the joys of scholarship. Cheri Lucas Jennings infused my work with enthusiasm and cause. John Peavey lent perspective. Randy Stapilus was actually there, and without his collection of notes and anecdotes there would have been little in the way of actual accounting here. Ellen Bishop took the magnificent cover picture, and lent it to me from her excellent book, In Search of Ancient Oregon. It is of course of Hells Canyon. Gary Snyder, although he doesn’t know it, for obvious reasons. (There’s just a lot of reasons for defending water that don’t fit into a legal brief.) Rebecca Miles, who reminded me at the end of the part the Nez Perce tribe has played in this story for the past ten thousand years. All the good folks in the MES office at the Evergreen State College who have put up with my meanderings for the past two years.
