The Dalles Chronicle, June 2, 2002 Looking Back is assembled weekly from the files of The Chronicle by Elroy King and Elly Marx. 20 Years Ago, June 2, 1982 A 30-day residency requirement in order to vote in Oregon conflicts with the U.S. Constitution and the Antelope (Oregon) disincorporation election of April stands. Wasco County Circuit Court Judge John Jelderks Tuesday afternoon said that the U.S. Supreme Court in 1972 had laid the foundation for this ruling when it threw out residency requirements in a Tennessee case. A group of Wasco County residents have chartered a Citizens Posse Comitatus and a spokesman said their efforts will be to assure constitutional rights of individuals are protected. Spokesman LaMont Jones of The Dalles noted the posse draws its power from the federal constitution, that the local group would fight its battle over rights through the courts and would help individuals see their rights are protected. Mark Steinberg was the overall men's division winner and Traci KaHoe the women's division champion of the Lyle (Washington) Pioneer Day's 7.2 mile road race held Sunday. 60 Years Ago, June 2, 1942 What to do in an air raid: 1.) In any air raid or backlut, take cover immediately. If you are away from home, get off the street. If you are at home, take immediate blackout precautions. 2.) Don't use the telephone. Remember those persons who have been trained to protect you. Your personal calls have got to wait until the all-clear signal. 3.) If you are caught in the open, lay on your stomach. 4.) If incendiary bombs fall, play a course spray of water on them. Put out the fires started by the incendiaries first, then devote your attention to the bomb. 5.) Remember obey your air raid warden and other members of the United States citizens defense corps, they are trying to help you. 6.) Above all, keep cool, stay home, put out lights, take shelter, lie down, stay away from windows. You can help.
