Goodwill To Sell
Collection Booths
Several hundred yellow and
blue collection- booths -- for
many years the popular Goodwill
Industries symbol for the deposit
of reusable and repairable mater-
ials -- are going on sale to the
Public.
These booths are rapidly fall-
ing victim to Goodwill's major
changeover in its method of col-
lecting donated articles for use
in its on-the-job training program
for the handicapped.
They ar e gradually being
Phased out by the non-profit or-
ganization and replaced by new
Attended Collection Centers, ac-
cording to Marion C. Smith, ex-
ecutive director. The new centers
are semi-trailer units placed in
neighborhood shopping centers
with an attendant on duty seven
days a week to accept donations
of materials.
The booths, measuring five-
feet square and six feet in height,
Will sell for $50 each. They are
of Wood construction and can be
Put to a variety of uses including
Playhot~es for youngsters, caba-
nfis alongside swimming pools,
Outdoor tool and garden sheds,
Workshops, and even dog houses.
They can be purchased at Good-
Will's main store, 1925 SE Sixth
Ave., Portland. Delivery is avail,
able for a small extra charge.
Funds derived from the sales
provide wages and services for
GOodwilrs handicapped workers.
Area Rail System
Study Completed
State Rep. Stan Bunn (R-Day-
ton) has announced this week the
completion of a study of passen-
ger rail service from Portland to
McMinnville. The study was done
by the Oregon Public Utility
Commissioner's office.
A light rail train system from
Portland t h r o u g h Washington
County and into Newberg and
McMinnville would cost about 60
million dollars. This would allow
development of an extensive rail
service in the populated areas
around Portland in addition to
the Newberg and McMinnville ex-
tension.
The PUC reports in the study
that once major routes around
Portland were completed, service
could be extended rather easily
over existing rail lines to include
Newberg and McMinnville.
An official of the PUC indicat-
ed that the cost of building a line
from Tualatin to McMinnville, a
distance of 29.1 miles, would be
about 11 million dollars. This is
a relatively inexpensive cost
when compared to the cost of de-
veloping the Portland area por-
tion of the system.
Rep. Bunn said he requested
the PUC to extend their study of
rail service to McMinnville and
Newberg because he is convinced
we must find more efficient me-
thods of transportation to deal
with fuel shortages.

Area Officials
Receive Word Of
Additional Funds
Yamhill County and city repre-
sentatives learned about the pos-
sibility of additional federal rev-
enue to the area at the regular
session Tuesday evening of the
City-County Officials meeting at
the Courthouse.
Charles Freese, representing
the Mid-Willamette Valley Coun-
cil of Governments, explained
the proposed Manpower Revenue
Sharing Act, which is in the pro-
cess of passage by the U. S. Sen-
ate and House of Representatives.
First allocation of the funds is
due for July 1 of this year with
funding for fiscal year 1975 due
in October.
The funds under Title II, Pub-
lic Employment, will be used by
local governments to add employ-
es in such fields as recreation,
social services, public works, and
public protection. It is expected
that each city in Yamhill County
will be eligible for enough funds
to hire one additional employe
if they wish.
Other funding under the Man-
power Training Act covers young
people's summer employment, on-
t b e job-training, institutional
training and Operation Main-
~ream for older, unemployed
persons.
In other business the local of-
ficials discussed reactivation of
the county Economical Develop-
ment Administration committee.
EDA funds cannot be allocated
for area projects without the rec-
ommendation of such a commit-
tee which had been disbanded
when federal funds became un-
available. With more federal mon-
ey becoming available, a commit-
tee to study projects at the local
level is necessary. EDA funds
were given to the county for the
Willamette River Bridge, water
developmnt in Dundee and the
Mid-Valley workshop.
Commissioner Morris Majors
appointed a committee composed
of Sheridan Mayor Charles Jor-
dan, Newberg mayor Jack Nulsen,
MeMinnviUe mayor Norm Scott
and county administrato Ken Wil-
liams to explore possible plans
for supplying the county with ad-
ditional public transit systems.
