Oregon

On June 26 the Alumni Association of Oregon held its annual picnic at the farm of Arch Diack on the Sandy River about twenty miles from Portland. It was a good day and we had a splendid turnout, 41 adults and 19 children, which made the picnic very sociable. Short work was made of four turkeys that Arch barbecued over a charcoal fire, said barbecue being operated by the gravity pull of a basketful of stones suspended from one of the adjacent tall firs.

Jack Hemingway caught a few fish in the river. The rest of us sat around and talked, pitched horseshoes, and chased children.

The picture was taken at the picnic by Mrs. Ken Montgomery.
