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

Cedar Marker Pays Tribute
To Trail Blazer Felix Scott
A tribute to Oregon pioneer
trail blazers in the form of a
large, carved cedar marker for
the Scott trail on the McKenzie
is now under preparation and will
soon be dedicated by the Obsid
ians with appropriate ceremonies,
according to Art Clough, under
whose direction the panel is being
made.
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.

Klamath Crash Death

KLAMATH FALLS, June 13
W The death toll of a head-on

53, during the night.

finishing the alleys were on hand,
making the blaze a continual dan
ger to the fire-fighters and the oc
cupants of the building. 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.
