Stan Bunn Dayton Announces For Attorney Rep. Stan Bunn, a Dayton area resident, has announced his can- didacy for the position of state attorney general. Born June 25, 1946, Rap. Bunn is a graduate of Dayton High School, a graduate of Willam- ette University with a B. A. de- gree in Economics, and graduat- ed cum hude with a Doctor of Jurisprudence degree from Wll- lamette University Law School. He is a member of the Oregon State Bar and is a pratcicing at- torney in Newberg. His wife is a teacher of the deaf and has taught at the Ore- gon S~te School for the Deaf. They have a son, Michael, one year old. Rep. Bunn stated: "Today I am announcing my candidacy for the office of At- torney General. It is my opinion that as the primary legal officer of the State of Oregon, ,the At- torney General and his staff should be non, political in ,their activities. I will ask the 1977 leg- islature to pass legislation mak- ing the office non-partisan. "One of ,the greatest frustra- tions of citizens is the bureaucrat- ic red tape they face in working with ,a state agency. This is nat ,intentional on the agency's parL ,Red tape can be reduced by strongly advising~ the agencies to follow more completely the leg- isi'ative intent in making their rules and regulations. This can be done most effectively if the attorneys in the Attorney Gener- al's office con,tinue to answer to the Attorney General rather than .to the various state agency heads. "During the course of my two terms in the legislature, I have developed a good working rela- tionship with the various state agencies. This experience will be significant in my role as an ad- visor to these agencies as Attor- ney General. "I will seek to retain the ex- cellent staff now assembled in the Attorney General's office. As Attorney General, I will continue my past efforts in the field of strong traffic safety leg- islation. As a Representative, l was proud to sponsor the I-~bit- ual Traffic Offender Act and to chair the House hearings on the 1975 Traffic Code Revision which resulted in many new traffic safe- ty provisions. "I am prepared to devote my full time and effort to develop a winning campaign and one in which every Oregonian can be proud to participate." A Busy Family- A Happy Family By Earle Coburn, Publicity The little country village on the banks of the Yamhi11 River -~Dayton--has a very busy Ma- sonic family. Jacob Mayer No. 108--the father -- glecta Chap- ter No. 29, OES -- the mother-- and ,the kids k Rainbow Assem- bly No. 72 -- all have been do- ing things together and separate- ly. The '76 officers of Jacob May- er Lodge No. 108 were ~ed during the STATED, on Dec. 4, by a very fine team from Union Lodge No. 43, McMinnville, con- sisting of R. W. Bro. Bill Old- ham, Dist. Deputy, Bros. Clarke Morton and Floyd tiartzelL all proud holders of proficient cards. Bro. Larry Delaney, Worshipful Master for 1976 and other oHi- cers were seated and plans re- veaied for the coming year. It would seem we will have an in- tresting program on the trestle- board. FAecta Clmpter No. 29, OR% had a guest speaker from Silverton Sister Mary Ann Gro- dian, pleading the case of ES- TARL, a worthy cause. W. M. Vi Mattox honored several officers and then remembered those who had birthdays with c 1 e v e r :thoughts taken from their horo- scopes. But Sunday, the 14th of December, was the day to be long recalled. Many hurried away f r o m their respective church services to form a cara- van headed to the Masonic & Eastern Star Home in Forest Grove to present a special reli- gions program for some 90 guests living there. There was group singing, vocal solos by Lesley Pomeroy, a special feature by Brad Gill who strummed his gui. tar and sang a couple of spirit- ual songs. Then this large crowd from the Dayton family scurried home to attend a St. John's Day Service arranged at the Christian Church. By so doing Rev. Gerald Carter had two or three chances to address this Masonic family, since he also brought the splen- did message to an unusually large group at the Home. Christ- mas parties and other me~tings will clese out the year. Services Held For Clarence Launer Memorial services for Clarence J. Launer, 66, Dayton, were held Wednesday, Dec. 17 at 2 pm in the Unionvaie Church. Private interment was in Hopewell Ceme- tery. Mr. Launer died Dec. 11 at his Dayton home.
