West Slop State Highway Sewage Plan v Being Studied v ' ; :..; A sewage disposal plan to take care ot 'tne troublesome west slope area above South River Road is under long-range consid eration by the city engineering department The plan, estimated ' to cost some $102,000, could service up to 4,000 persons on the west side of Fairmount Hill, Candalaria Heights, Laurel Springs addition and the Croisan Creek drainage area, City Engineer J; Harold Davis reports. The new plan ; would provide a . gravity line along Croisan Creek .from the Salem Golf Course to the foot of Mission Street a 50-foot lift station and a gravity line along Mission to connect with the Church Street interceptor. ' It would substitute. for a pre vious plan to install a small pri mary treatment plant near the golf course which met opposition recently from the State Sanitary Authority. Authority engineers advised the city that if a primary plant were installed it would re quire the effluent to be piped to the. Willamette River, a distance of some 4,500 feet, running the cost of that plan to $75,000. It, however, would serve only a lim ited area. Cost of a complete treatment plant which would be necessary in order to dump the effluent into Croisan Creek would be pro hibitive, Davis indicated. If the line-lift system is in stalled it would permit develop ment of a large area of the west slope now faced with a critical sewage problem, Davis said. Sev eral homes inside the city in the Fir-Bush Street pocket are at present on septic tanks. County Shovel Clears Dirt A Marion County shovel was called upon Wednesday to clear dirt which had fallen on South River Road south of , the golf course. Marion County Commissioner Roy Rice told the county court that slippage of the embankment had probably been caused by re cent heavy rains. Court members were also told that a section of Garden Road, east of Salem, may have to be "roughed up" because it is too slick. Several accidents have oc curred on the short hill, according to Commissioner E. L. Rogers. Antlers are shed each year while horns are permanent in most spec ies or animals. Engineer Wins Traffic Award F. Bruce Crandall, the . state highway department's traffic en gineer, won the top award in the 1954 nationwide traffic engineer ing competition sponsored by the Association of Casualty and Sure ty companies. ; Crandall's . award came for a simple and inexpensive method of channeling traffic at an irregu lar four-street intersection in Oregon City. The plan reduced accidents 147 per cent 'during a 17-month period after it became effective, i - : i " He received a $100 check from the sponsoring organization at a special testimonial luncheon in Portland Wednesday. v; ri Crandall solved the ; accident problem . at the intersection by installing a long, curved concrete "jiggle bar on one of the streets. forcing drivers to follow a course which gave them better visibility and eliminated shortcutting left- hand turns, r V The installation cost, about $175. , - Regulation of Junk Dealers, Auctioneers Cains Junk dealers and auctioneers would be I supervised ; by county courts and. the state under two bills approved by the House Wed nesday and sent to the Senate. Both measures were u,rged by tne uregon nenns Association One would have counties license secondhand equipment and junk dealers and auctioneers. The oth er would set up a state board of auctioneers. Auctioneers would be bonded and pay license fees up to $150 each. The legislation would apply only to dealers and auctioneers outside of cities.
