In regard -to animals, AHA staff members traveled nearly 200,000 miles last year to all parts of the USA and abroad, conducting 134 seminars workshops and participating in local and national meetings, in cooperating in ecological and wildlife research projects, assisting 175 agencies and groups, and inspecting 836 motionpicture and television productions, zoos, circuses, exhibitions and rodeos.

Now that the excitement of the Penn Valley Rodeo is over we can get on with our calm summer schedules. ‘School Days’ is the theme this’ year of the Malakoff. Diggins’ State Historic Park Homecoming Day on Sunday June 10. Last Sunday the Citizens Advisory Committee for the Malakoff met at the Park as guests of the Park Supervisor Eric Leffingwell, to complete plans for the big day. It will be Family Picnic style. There are no groceries or cafes at North Bloomfield. On this one day the Nevada County Horsemen usually have a Chuckwagon e. Its a marvelous place to spend any day. It’s particularly interesting on Homecoming Day. Be sure and put it on your calendar. Of course, I could be prejudiced. As a member of your Committee I have an extra interest. Thanks to Mrs. Louise Dudley of French Corral and Mr. Frank Cardoza of No. San Juan and his son Robert of Oakland the North Bloomfield School will have a proper teachers desk. It’s to be from the old North San Juan School. The pupils desks came from someplace down south. It seems to me it’s particularly clever how the Diggins’ is being developed. Three years ago Homecoming Day was a Cabin Raising Day and Ranger Leffingwell got several new vacation rental cabins. Last year it was Sunday in the Park and thanks to Babe Pinaglia and Ranger Leffingwell the Park got St. Columcilles lovely old pioneer Church from out French Corral way. This year thanks to the Washington School District and Mrs. Stella Tracy they have the old North Bloomfield School. Eric Leffingwell has a_ real ability for getting things together on a shoestring. That’s what the Malakoff seems to be operating on. At least it keeps it a really simple quaint old pioneer town. The Park is 26 miles from Nevada City first out Hwy. 49 to Tyler Road then off Tyler Road onto the Park Road. The Park road is not paved but the scenery, the Malakoff, and the quaint old town of Humbug (North Bloomfield) is worth every bump in the last 7 miles. a et Following Homecoming Day, on Sunday June 24, we will celebrate Secession Day in Rough and Ready. I have been asked to tell you about the Flag of the Great ‘Republic the Grange ladies raised on April 7. That particular Flag was made in 1969 by Mmes Doris Bradley, Lucille McCrea, Bea Mackey, Mary O’Neal, and myself. We worked together in the old School House and put several together for our celebration that year. It flies over Rough and Ready throughout the Secession \ period, April 7 to July 4. It was copied from an_ original presented tothe Rough and: Ready Chamber of Commerce on November 1, 1965 by Robert Stabler Production Manager of Death Valley Days. It was used in that TV series in the episode titled ‘Birthright’. Birthright was part of a series presented by the American Broadcasting Company, Channel 13 locally. Rough and Ready received National attention with this historical presentation of its short but spirited secession from the United States. The original Flag used was presented to the community in a program at the Chamber _ of Commerce flagpole in front of the old IOOF Hall, now the home of the Rough and Ready Grange. Mr. Elza Kilroy gave a brief history of The Great Republic and Charles Deardorf, then Vice President of the Chamber, accepted the Flag. Ready Springs students sang the Star Spangled Banner. Old timers Maud Calvert, Manuel Frank, and Manuel Alameda were Guests of Honor. The program was televised and shown on Channel 13 on Nov. 4, 1965. The Flag was raised and flew again over the little town on November 10, 1969 when Miss Betty Jean Wills, Promotion Manager for TV Channel 13 returned to the Community to become Mrs. John Cail at the -Little Wedding Chapel. Each year it flies throughout the Secession period, April 7 to July 4. There is some question as to its authenticity. The original was lost in the hubub of returning to the Union in 1850. Some authorities claim the original contained an Oak Leaf Cluster. Others claim the original colors were brown, orange, and green. We prefer to accept the design used for the National presentation of Birthright. Anyway it has now become historic. anEPLER rae Before I give you the May birthdays we have a belated one for April. Mrs. Max. (Lavinia) Wolf became another year wiser on April 29. The Wolfs live on Burkard Lane in a veritable garden. They have lilacs in that garden whose spikes of blossoms are twice as thick as mine. I had been kind of proud of mine this year. Mrs. Wolf loves animals and got a Yearling Lamb for her birthday. She already has it eating out of her hand. In the olden days Maud Calvert started May for the Community with her birthday on May 2. Now we start with Willis Perry on May 4. Delton Pharis celebrated May 7. Regina Marie Gregor will be 7 years old (can it be possible) on May 9. Debbie Nyce Bursill Brooker has an anniversary of her natal day on May 14. We finish up nicely with our Postmaster Helen Avery on May 26. 273-2934 ttt tae Our new neighbors the Abbotts (Perry place) of Kings Beach are here for a month to kind of get their new home in order. Another new neighbor Mrs. Myrtle Hostettler will be back again next weekend to continue work on their home. They are living in San Marino at least until the old home is kind of rebuilt. Trouble with’ such mobility as we have in the world today is we lose neighbors too. Several farewell parties are being planned for Mrs. Marguerite Spaite DeBow who will soon be moving to Rheem Valley. imap Don’t forget’ the Nevada County Historical Society will meet at the Veterans Hall in Nevada City Thursday May 3 at 8:00 p.m. Program for the evening was arranged by Mrs. Doris Foley, County Historian and Historical Society Program Chairman. She is presenting “Growth and Development of the Cultural Museum in Nevada City”. Mrs. Isabel Hefelfinger, prominent member of one of Nevada Counties pioneer families and Chairman of the Museum for many years, will be the speaker. Mrs. Florence Kelly is Hostess for the evening. Refreshments were arranged by Mrs. Gwen Anderson. ++4++++. Mr. Willis Perry manager of our local Real Estate Office is recovering from a brief illness. He actually has not been well for some time but collapsed recently while on a vacation trip to Ruth Lake in Trinity County. He is already beginning to spend a little time back at the Office again. ee ae ot eee The Newcomers Lyric Ensemble sang Tuesday for the Newcomers ClubLuncheon. They will perform again today for the SIRS. Next performance will be May 9 for the Methodist Church. Mrs. Lisetta Scheave is hoping they will sing for her sometime in June when her lovely new Carillon Bells are to be dedicated. The ensemble has several new numbers. Especially pleasing will be two songs especially adapted for a summer evening. Calm as the Night, a love song by Carl Bohm, will probably be familiar to you. The completely new one Night Song by Joseph Clokey has beautiful harmony. Other numbers to be sung, which have been included previously in the Ensembles repertoire, will be Mountains, Carmena, Italian Street Song, and Wells Fargo Wagon. The Ensemble was formed as a group of the Newcomers Club in 1958 and has worked together since. Mrs. Meda Snow of Cedar Ridge is and since the beginning has been their accompanist.
