Enforcement Ready For New Speed Law On Saturday, June 14, Oregon's new basic speed law goes into effect and Eugene's police de partment will begin strict en forcement of the provisions, ac cording to Chief C. F. Bergman. Principal change over the law previously in effect which gave certain designated speeds for each district is that any excess of these speeds now become prima facie evidence of the violation of the basic rule. In other words it is up to the driver and not the police officer to prove that he was not driving recklessly at the time. All that the officer must do is to prove to the satisfaction of a court that the motorist was speeding. The designated speeds which will be enforced under the law are: (1) 20 miles per hour when passing a school building or grounds during opening or closing Rubenstein's 1ST BY Km FIRST BY CHOICE flail 1L- . . tekT l elecme maver Sdib?,men who i ku iSS Bring PgetaUberdaulow.

The marker, the central panel of which has just been completed, is being sponsored jointly by the Obsidians and the Willamette torest service and was designed and made by students in design classes at the Eugene Vocational school as an NYA project. The central panel is 45 inches wide by 10 feet three inches high and is nearly four inches thick. Made from "Alaska" cedar from the Santiam high country, the panel shows in carving the first craossing of the McKenzie pass by Felix Scott in 1862. a pull which required 26 yoke of oxens to pull the eight wagons across.

The sup ply of materials was much less than at later date, however, when the alleys are usually completely refinished. Girls Escape The Newberry store was quickly filled with smoke and the sales girls scooted out of the rear en trance, coughing and choking from smoke tears streaming from their eyes, either from the smoke or from frantic excitement. Firemen were able to reach the origin of the blaze only through a small three-foot staircase in the front and an equally small rear entrance. One fireman, darl- rndHphprlc. was overcome with smoke after battling the smoke and elusive blaze in the basement bowling al ley. Neighboring business estab lishments, Everybody's Drugs, Sey mour's and Sigwart Electric, as well as second-floor occupants of tne building, were movine out rec. ords and belongings. The people occupying the residence at 41 Tenth avenue west were moving household belongings into the street. The most severe part of the fire was apparently in the rear of the building where firemen played a steady stream on the basement and first-floor windows expecting "hell to pay" when the blaze even tually came to a "head." The firemen were adding another line, the sixth, in an effort to control the fire at press time. The last line was carried to the roof of the building. Monthly Meeting Set DONNA, June 13.
