THANKS TO NO WIND and high humidity, which apparently caused the Sunday night fire to burn out, damage to ihe Rod and Gun picnic area, shown above, was negligible. Plywood serving counters which were consumed left light-colored ash. Portion of pic nic table was also destroyed. Big barbecu e pit was used Sunday by Elks Club to bar becue 900-pound steer. (Paul Jenkins Picture). Fire Destroys Elks' Picnic Counters A fire, aonarentlv started late Sunday evening by a smoldering cigarette or hot ash from the bar becue pit, completely consumed the plywood serving counters and a portion of a picnic table at .ho Rod and Gun Club's picnic area. The blaze was believed to have started in wooden shavings around the base of the counter. It also singed a nearby jackpine and scorched grass in a surround ing area of some 20 feet. Damage wis negligible, according to W. A. Gilchrist, manager of the local Elks Club. The counters had been built by members of the Elks Lodge. They were used as a serving area where thos attending the annual Elks picnic could get some of the beef from the 900-pound steer barbs cued at the picnic'. According to Gilchrist, the count ers et al were intact when the last people left the picnic area at 10:30 p.m. However, he said, when another party came back to the area at 1 a.m. to searcn tor some lost. Keys, the fire damage had already oc curred. "It just seemed to stop," said Gilchrist, who d examined the grounds Tuesday. He added that it was fortunate that the fire had burned itself out, before causing considerable dam ace and attributed the demise to apparent lack of wind and high humidity. Sanitary, Storm Sewer System Cost Vi Million (Co-'Jnued from Page One) 8 000. To brine- the plant up to specifications of the Oregon San itary Authority would cost JMO,- 000. Growth In the outskirts of Lie city is recognized and the engi neers recommend that main lines and treatment facilities should be adequate to serve an eventual pop ulation of about 18,000. Population of the city itself Is taken into 'consideration. By 1960, it is forecast the city will contain 13,600 residents. Estimated popu lation now is 11.360. SThe report now is in the hands of the health and sanitation com mittee of the' city council. City Manager George Farrell said thai council action, on the first phase of the program may start some time in August. In viewing the sanitary prob lems outside the city, the firm says they can, be met best througn annexations. But, it adds, annex ations may 'be difficult in some areas, so "suitable financial ar rangements" should be made be tween the city and sanitary dis tricts outside the city limits. A new treatment plant, it is recom mended, should be connected to all sysltems, with each district and the city sharing in the cost of the plant. Work on sanitary and storm sewers to begin at the same time is "feasible,'' the engineers think, in view of the city's "good financial standing." Work should be programmed carefully, they say, so that street' work won't be interrupted. Car Windows Broken; Tools, Equipment Taken Wayne L. Graber, 905 Winches ter St., told city police this morn ing that windows were broken from his car sometime last night and $150 worth of tools, four hub caps and a set of foglights were taken. Karl A.

Agreement was reached Friday between the oper veai settlement terms, but Ken neth Davis, executive secretary of the Northwestern Council, AFL LSWU, said here that it was for an increase of 5 cents and 7R, cents an hour some workers getting one figure and some the other. The strike, by both AFL and the CIO Woodworkers, was to get an increase of 12 Vi cents. There have been a number of settlements, ranging all the way from renewal of the old contract without change, to the full 12 V4 cents. These, though, have been chiefly in the smaller operations. At Redmond, where CIO Wood workers went through their local's picket line Monday to resume work at the Ponderosa Lumber Sales $lant, a moulding mill, there were imore pickets and more returning workers Tuesday. A company spokesman estimated 30 to 35 pick ets and about 75 employes who went past them without incident.
