Council,. To Face Light Agenda Monday Scheduled business appears light for Salem City Council at its Christmas week meeting Monday night, but Oareups may occur over the long-pending fire truck bids and tie vote for Ward 3 al derman. City Attorney Chris J. Kowitz is slated to report again on the tie between incumbent Claud Jorgen sen and Clayton Jones, who were candidates in November for the Ward 3 seat. Kowitz had ruled that with no legal means of break ing the tie, the incumbent could keep the office. Jones made a formal bid for the office to the Council at its last meeting. This was referred to the attorney. Jones said Saturday he would consult his own attorney and would appear at the meeting Monday in City Hall! Council members have so far shown little disposition to initi ate any settlement of the tie vote beyond accepting legal advice that Jorgensen apparently is entitled to keep the office. The fire truck bids are in the hands of a special committee of aldermen. This group had earlier recommended that specifications be redefined and new bids called for, which was done. Low bidder both times was the maker of Sea graves fire truck equipment, which has been purchased by the city two or three times in recent years. In legislation ready for final ac tion there is one zone change, so far uncontested. This would per mit establishment of a drive-in restaurant on Center Street across from Capitol Shopping Center.
