gunman and made a dive for him.
The disc went wild and the gun

said, then fell sobbing to the
floor.
In an instant he was on his
feet again, Baker told police.

His composure regained, he
munched cheese and drank water
through the night.
He was mannerly, the Bakers
said. Their two daughters, who

in the kitchen, were not harmed.
The gunman was quoted as say
ing he had no family and noth
ing to live for.
"Ill shoot myself If cornered,"
he said.

sewer, recently completed. Wheth
er lots previously assessed for a
sewer which has been in for many
years should be reassessed for the
new sewer along the rear of their
property was the problem.
Two letters were read protest
ing the payment and Ike Jones
and Herman Flatau, property
owners of affected lots, appeared,
stating that because of the con
tours of the land they could not
be served by the- new sewer,
since the sewers would have to
be run up hill. The lots In ques
tion are short, and run complete
ly through the block. They pro
tested that homes built on the
rear of their property facing Ave
nue A also could not use the new
sewers.
Carl Permin spoke protestine
depth of the sewer line which
serves his property, and Lyle Ed
dy protested what would be an
additional cost if all the property
owners were not assessed propor
tionately. The assessment If
equally divided would be approxi
mately $119,, while if the protest
ing property owners were not as
sessed, the other residents would
have to pay around $170 each.
Since the matter was becoming
what Mayor Albert G. Flegel
termed a "bees-nest," the council
decided It had inadequate engi
neering data on which to make a
final decision on assessments at
that meeting, so deferred the
matter until the next session Jan.
2. City Manager Matt Slankard
was instructed to have the data
available.
Driveway Costs Shifted
Report of the street commit
tee recommending against the
city paying for driveways on
Corey and Military streets was
approved. The committee stated
that if one driveway was paid
for all would have to be taken
care of and the cost would run
In excess of $1000. Since the
widening of these streets is be
ing done without cost to the prop
erty owners, the committee de
cided it would be up to the prop
erty owners to take care of their
own driveways, which will have
to be lowered. The city charter
provides that the city is not li
able for such additional work.- j
The problem of whether or not
to charge all vending machines I
a tax was discussed, after E. T. i
I'nrath and Harold Hoyt, owners
of the local Coca Cola dispensing
plant, appeared protesting pay
ment of a tax on bottle dispens
ing machines In the city. After
discussion the council referred
the matter to a special commit
tee, named bv Mayor Flegel and
including William Hart. Frank
Ashley and Henry Carstens,
which Is to confer with the city
attorney and city manager and
report at the nex meeting.
Other council action included
approval of beer licenses for Jer
ry's Superette and Safeway
Stores, parkage beer only, and
The Spot Tavern, draft and bot
tle beer. Jack Holder was
granted waiver of a business

Considerable discussion was
held near the close of the meet
ing relative to, sewer and street
construction projects and what
policy to follow in the future on
awarding of contracts. Fred
Rouse was present and discussed
projects on which his company
is now working. No action was
taken.
