July
Bleachers Give Extra
Accommodation; Housing
For Entrants Requested
. Reserved seat tickets went on
tale today for the Southern Ore-
fon Invitational Swimming
eet, which the Junior Chamber
ot Commerce is sponsoring July
9 and 10 at the Roseburg Muni
cipal Pool. They are available
at Lawson's Jewelry.
Three hundred reserved seats
will be available both days at
$1.50 each, all inside the fence.
Proceeds from these are expect
ed to pay the expenses of the
meet, while all other revenue will
be turned over to the swimming
pool fund. The Jaycees will take
ail the risk, but share in none of
the profits. .
In addition to the reserved
seats, bleachers outside the
fence will accommodate an esti
mated 1,500 persons, City Man
ager M. W. Slankard, through
coperation of the Park Commis
sion, has just completed the erec
tion of permanent bleachers, 142
feet in length, along the south
side. These will seat 800 persons.
Temporary bleachers will be pro
vided along the east bank and on
the road above the pool for addi
tional seating. General admis
sion will be $1.00, and children
under 12 years, 50 cents.
Housing Problem Faced
The principal problem now is
finding housing for the 70 or
more swimmers from three Port
land .swimming clubs and one
from The Dalles.
Don Gum, housing chairman,
requests that any person who
can accommodate one or more
persons call the Chamber of
Commerce headquarters. It
shouldn't be difficult, he said, to
secure housing for that number.
The problem will be contacting
the homes which can handle the
visitors.
All the swimmers are Coming
here at their own expense, ex
cept for housing. They will pro
vide their own transportation and
meals, but have asked that lodg
ing be provided. The Portland
Aquatic club Is bringing free of
charge Its water acquacade, for
which it usually charges $1,400.
Jaycee President Glenn Scott
reported at the meeting Monday
night that upon a recent trip to
Portland he learned that the
swimming clubs in that city were
more than anxious to come here
and put on a show. He said he
was told that the clubs have had
very little chance to perform out
side of Portland, and welcomed
the opportunity of seeing a South
ern Oregon town developing a
water program. '

from Walt Dubiel in the seventh.
The Yankees defeated the
