ART PAIVA

+

April 7, 1981

We are very sorry to report that Art Paiva died April 7, 1981 after an illness of several months.

Along with his wife, Merle, he had been active' in our society for a number of years, He worked in the shop and they both served on the Show committee for several yearso Most notably, they worked on Admissions and Preregistration for the National Show in 1978.

This past year, Art served as Second Year Director until his illness, and as Dealer Chairman for the 1981 show.

Art's bright, ready smile will certainly be missed around the shop and at our meetings.

We extend our deep sympathy to Merle and other members of Art's family at this time.

"You haven't lost the one you love if you love the one you 10st,II

I am not dead - I did not die. I only passed from earth to sky. From dark to light my soul took flight; beautiful here, a wonderous sight. The sweetness of the times we shared, The laughter, tears, together paired; The dreams we dreamed, the prayers we

prayed, These memories never fade away -But grow brighter, day by day.

I , PAST PRESIDENTS HONORED AT APRIL MEETING

I

1

The April meeting was dedicated to our society's history, with the information xeprinted here for all to enjoy.

1948 - Thirty-three years ago, this club was organized by BUSTER SLEDGE (now deceased). There were 22 charter members present, and a member of CYMS, Orlin J. Bell, (in fact, he was the President of CFMS) at the first meeting at the home of the Sledges. Mrs 0

Sledge is now 87 years old and very active.

1948-1949 - COLe C. B. BRANSON was President. We don't have any word as to where he is now. Bo A. EREEDEN was Vice President.

1950-1951 ~ At BREEDEN became president in May, a month early, because COL, BRANSEN left for Arizona,

1951-1952,- AL BREEDEN was elected president. TOM ROBB (present where­abouts unknown) was vice president.

1952-1953 - .VON MC BRIDE (present whereabouts unknown) was president, and DON WILLS was vice president. This team stayed together for 1953-19540

1954-1955 - DON WILLS became president. He ahd joined the club in 1951 and had been vice president for two years before becoming president. This was the year of the clubs eighth annual show. DON WILLS has been very active in our club and also with the Alameda County Fair, where he has been in charge of the Mineral and Gem Display Building for many yearso He would like to see our members continue displaying at the Fair. When he moved away from the area several years ago, he discontinued his membership in the slub, but he's back now, and hopes to see ev'eryone at the Fair this year. ~'7 -io ~. ~

MAY 1981

PAST PRESIDENTS - Co ntinued

Back~ for a moment, to 1952, That was the year ZOE and OLIVER MARTIN Neither of them ever served as President, but we know that they were not far down the l:ist of active members during the past 29 years. So we give them special recognition. ZOE took. the job of Historian in 1954-1955 and again in 1955-1956, Since these two fine people joined our club, Idontt think they've missed a show or an event that we put on. ZOE always did decora­tions, Both put in cases at our show. ZOE has beautiful carvings and taught members how to carve for a long time. OLIV~R does beautiful faceting. It ~v-ou1dn! t be a Christmas Party without their smiLing faces there. 'l'hey have not missed more than one or two parties since they joined. OLIVER has always put in his special talents w:i.th hammer and shovel. Even now, at their mellow age, they worked at our last show. To show our appreciation to these fine members, our club gave them a spring bouquet in thanks for so many years of dedicated service.

1955-1956 - MRS. J. H. ENGBECK (Bea) became our first woman president. We don't know where she is now. Vice President tv-as GUS MOLLIN.

1956-1957 - GUS MOLL IN (now deceased) be­came president and MAY MEYERS waS Vice President.

1957-1958 - MAY MEYERS (now deceased) . became president and DR. K. A. HODGE vice president (present whereabouts unknown) . This year the bulletin started and the shop was open for the first time.

1958-1959 - On our tenth anniversary, JACK BURRIS became president. Jack. had joined the club in 1956 - 2S years ago. He held many offices in the time he belonged to our club (Ed. Note - He's still an associate member. - 01' Saj.) He moved to Santa Rosa in the 60's and formed

a society there, of which he became presi­dent. JACK put together the Field Trip book which we sold at the Pleasanton show in 1968. He and his wife, MARY, now live in Clear Lake. The first jewelry class started in 1958. The vice president dud.ng this time was JOE DUARTE (present whereabouts unknown),

1959-1960 - JOHN NAMES was presideJ;lt and BEN OWENS was vice president.

1960-1961 ~ BEN OWENS becane President. BEN and his w·if e VIRGINIA joined in 1957. BEN became treasurer that same years, 1957-1958. If I read our history right, this was the year the Castro Valley shop was opened. BEN was treasurer again in 1958-1959 and vice President in 1959-1960, He became president again in 1965-1966, and VIRGINIA was secretary. Ben taught members the Meador Method that we now use at our shop. VIRGINIA was an instructor in the jewelry room. I know of ten years that these two people instructed our members at least a couple of days a week - that is dedication! BEN and VIRGINIA had beautiful cases in our shows, and BEN won trophies for his cabochons. The Owens live in Sonora now, and belong to the Sierra Club as well as to our club. VERN KORSTAD was vice president.

1961-1962 - HENRY ROSE was president, He joined our club in 1958, 21 years ago. Henry was treasurer in 1960~196l. But he had to resign in May, and BILL WALKER. who was vice president, had to take over and LOUISE PALl1ER became vice president. Henry has done a lot of jobs in our society the many years he has been a member, He also has done trophies

! for our show. since he owns Acme Trophies.

TO BE CONTINUED IN JUNE.

the plan; the area; the con­sequences. Also, slides of much of the desert.)

The California Desert Plan is generally know as CDCA or EIS (California Desert Conservation Area or Environmental Impact Statement), These two abrevia­tions give you a fair idea of what they are trying to do,

It was decided that public lands were either being used too much by the general public or not enough, and some plan was needed to determine which lands could be sold off or given to the States and counties or made into National Parks and Forest Preserves. and which landf) needed a plan of control to pre­serve them" BLM was charged with the responsibility of providing a plan for the immediate and future protection and administra­tion of the public lands in the California Desert within the framework of a program of multi­ple use and sustained yield, and maintenance of environmental quality, and which lands could be sold or given away.

When the plan was being formu­lated the committee decided that none should be given away, and that much of the rest should be controlled and given a chance to survive. This, the plan contains many elements of compromise to please everyone" Many societies, organizations. divisions of the government, and recreation groups participated in the study and conclusions.

interlaced with shadings of control or no control and guide lines for many facets of desert geography .. I believe that it is a good plan, but we need to understand all these facets to determine how we want Congress to act. I will try to make this clear in my presentation.

IV; The Impact of the Total Plan

,Certain proposals need to be considered~:

(1) The plan contains elements for twelve resource or use categories of major public interest.

(2) That there are seventy-three Areas of Critical Environ­

mental Concern to be considered to be considered - to protect sensitive natural and cultural resources. (3) That 2.07 million acres be

designated as wilderness areas.

(4) Provides for a program of of multiple use with re­

strictions on general public free access.

(5) Provides for some motorized vehicle access through a

program of vehicle access design­ation of "open", "closed", and "limited" access corridors. (6) Provides a coordinated

desertwide approach to the management of fish and wildlife species and habitates in the CDCA.

(7) Provides for certain "uti­lity" corridors for future pipe­lines for gas, oil, etc. (Also electric lines).

(8) Proposes the allocation of more areas of grazing.

(9) Control of wild burros and horses.

PETROGRAPH Page 1/

American (Indian) places in a moderate to completely control­led management.

(11) Explains the program of mineral and energy poten-

tial and use for the future. (Most will be under strict con­trol until forced out into private industrial hands).

(12) Related State and local government needs and plans

will be considered (but not specific now),

(13) Provides general regional guidance for the manage­

ment of the CDCA over a 20-year period.

(14) Specifies the controls and type of land use and resource

mana~ment activity needed to pro­tect public lands ~ through such classification as Multiple Use -Controlled; Multiple Use -Limited control; Multiple Use -Moderate control; Multiple Use -Intensive Use.

IDEAS YOU MIGHT TRY: Use water pump lubricant with rust inhibitor for saw collant. No odor, no oily mist or fog and no oily mess to clear up. Via Prospectors Pick­ings To remove oil from slabs, spray with Spray & Wash stain remover and let stand for few minutes. Rinse in warm or hot water. "PP" Mary McGinnis, San Pedro says put a cup of Mr. Clean to each 10 gallons of cutting oil to get clean slabs. Worth Trying.

THE COUNTRY STORE

It's extremely diffic~lt to know where to begin, our country store was such a huge success. We had so many beautiful things brought in and sold. Lots of people worked very hard and contributed in so many ~lays. We sold approximately $660. worth of tickets for the drawing, and all together took in over $1,700. We had so many people working that at times, we just got in each others way. Mary Mercer & Laone Strange were there almost all weekend < June Boynton took over for me when r couldntt be there. There were just so many people that I couldntt even begin to mention everyone, but r want everyone to know how much they were appreciated.

Please start thinking & planning for next year, and letts try to do even better.

The Checker game by Mary Van Kerrebroeck was won by D. Kisner

The Oil Painting by Elynor Schwab was won by Hector Fonseca.

The Clock donated by Gene & Ed Hanzel was won by Gene & Ed Hanzel, and Vern & Jeanette Korstad.

The Afghan by Loretta McKee was won by rIa Hardman.

The Dollhouse by Cheryl Archer & Jamie MacDonald and the Quilt were both won by The Johnstons, who just h~ppened to be Dealers at our show. I think she felt a little guilty about winning both of them.

If you would like to donate something for the drawing for next year, please let me know.

Thanks again everyone.
