Installation by the Weyerhaeuser Timber Co. of devices to remove solid material from waste water before it was discharged was announced jointly today by the company and the Washington State Pollution Control Commission. First devised by employees of Weyerhaeuser in Everett, one was already in place at Mill B.

Golf pro Bob Whisman and his assistant Jeff Erickson were offering free golf lessons for junior golfers under 18 years old. The one-hour lessons would take place at Everett Municipal Golf Course and Walter Hall Golf Course this month and next.

Bob McDonald, principal of Cypress Adventist School, a Christian school in Brier, was honored at a "welcome to the U.S." party staged by his students after he received his citizenship papers. Beside a cake, he received such appropriate gifts as an apple pie and gifts certificates to McDonalds and Baskin Robbins.
