I was thin for first time in my life. Beyond that, I was leaving Grant High in the top ten percent of my class heading to UCLA to study cytology. (Want a great nerdy pick up line? How about, "Hey babe, wanna see my endoplasmic reticulum?") Eighteen-year-olds could vote and I was politically active, spending days with other "activists" registering voters. However, the most exhilarating times were Los Angeles evenings with Suzanne, my first girlfriend. Our premier date was Magic Mountain amusement park. Life simply could not be better. It's a rite of passage to endure the agony of a first breakup, which happened 13 months later. My reaction was to spin out of control. Having commuted from the San Fernando Valley to Westwood every day for my first year at college, my job and my friendships were the same that I had in high school. After she dumped me, everything transformed. I relocated to the student ghetto and became immersed in the university's culture, establishing new friendships and activities. Becoming involved with campus politics and training to be a counselor for the volunteer helpline, time became short (Studying? What's that?), so I quit my job in Van Nuys, opting to stock clothing at the student store; where I was first exposed to KLA, the college radio station.

Marcus Chamblin meets with Corning Exchange County Supervisor Steve Chamblin spoke to the Corning Exchange Club on June 17. Supervisor Chamblin was introduced by Exchange Club Board Member Bucky Bowen. Supervisor Chamblin brought us up to date on what is going on in Tehama County. His remarks included the fact that in spite of the economic turn-down, Tehama County is still in good shape financially and is operating with a balanced budget. Infra structure such as road maintenance and bridge repairs is limping along, but the worse problems are still being addressed during these difficult economic times. Supervisor Chamblin indicated that the county is still applying for and receiving grants. He did however express his personal opinion that instead of county taxpayers sending money to the state and then getting a portion back in grants the state should simply let the county retain its o.

Supervisor Chamblin responded that medical growers/users of marijuana are required to register with the Health Department and for that reason suspects that it (medical marijuana) does not sig- nificantly add to the illegal trade in marijuana growth or usage. Supervisor Chamblin wrapped up his presentation by giving us a very informative explanation of the emerging efforts by a number of citizens in Humboldt County and Tehama County to have a railroad built connecting Tehama County and Humboldt County.
