Baker City

I'm like, no, that ain't right.

Mark Parker was bow hunting alone in the mountains between Austin Junction and Baker, Oregon.

For days, an unfamiliar grunt sounded behind him at 9.30 each morning.

Then a brown face appeared around a tree and Mark had to determine exactly what he was seeing.

Yeah.

Well, I, I mean, I, I don't hunt out there anymore, [laughs] so I can kinda give you an idea.

It's, uh, just out of Austin Junction, between Austin Junction and Baker, um, but closer to the...

It's out of, um, if anybody that goes over there, Austin Junction, there's Austin House.

Where'd you find that cat?

Dude, Rashawn Jones, 18 years old, freshman from Baker City, Oregon, and then he honestly finished his high school at Rocky Mountain down the street in Meridian, Idaho.

A phenomenal kid, David.

I mean, comes from an awesome family, loves the Lord.

Grainger, for the ones who get it done.

Lee Prentiss lies wounded in Dodge City when Deputy Jake Harbin arrives from Baker City carrying a murder warrant.

It brings Marshal Matt Dillon face-to-face with an out-of-town lawman and with questions of jurisdiction and due process before Prentiss can be taken away.

From CBS Radio, this is Gunsmoke, Episode 105, Murder Warrant.

Come over here, Harvin.

You'd have saved yourself a lot of trouble if you'd have stayed around here last night, Marshall.

What do you mean by cold cock and a man throwing him in jail? Where are you from, Robin? Baker City.

Down on the Canadian River? Yeah.

The Lone Ranger rides again!

Come on, Silver! We're heading for Baker City! Come on, waiting on the train ahead! Come on, Silver! Come on! Come on!

The masked man and his faithful Indian companion, Tonto, rode slowly toward Baker City.

Less than a mile from town, as they were passing a grove of trees, Tonto's horse quinnied nervously and for no apparent reason came to a clattering halt.

What? What's the

But it won't hurt to find out.

Get him up, Caincourt.

At the same time the masked man and Tonto were examining the evidence beneath the grove of trees, three men were standing before the bar of the cafe in Baker City.

But if he's not, it's going to be transfers.

And then actually a true freshman named Rashawn Jones, who grew up in Baker, Oregon, eastern Oregon, a small little town out there, and ended up transferring to Idaho, I think, for his senior year in high school.

Yeah.

And so... that's the kind of talent they have at receiver so i'm not convinced they're going to be able to throw the ball effectively based upon all that they need to be able to run the ball and if oregon can take that away like that's that's the number one key for this defense to me is oregon take away the run game with dylan riley and sire games which won't be an easy task necessarily i don't see how this game is competitive for very long

I think on a down-by-down basis, Oregon should have an advantage.

But, like, if O'Reilly can break off a long one, you mentioned Rashawn Jones' speed.

I would be very concerned, frankly, if Brandon Finney or Ifeo Badegu or an aim offer is getting roasted by a true freshman from Baker, Oregon originally.

That doesn't seem like a major concern.

Burns LIT and they're in mostly Harney County.

And then we have the Baker LIT, which is out of Baker City.

And then the Vail LIT, which is based on the Vail BLM district.

They actually came together and they've started the Malheur Rangeland Partnership.

He considers that a good night for that town.

Another place that surprised me was Baker City, Oregon, the Eltrum Theater, which has been around a long time.

And it's owned by a woman who first started out as a projectionist in this theater and helped make their conversion to digital and ended up buying the place.

And it was the only three screen theater that I filmed.
