River fishing and development in terests were In Portland Tuesday to present the State Game Com mission with the Eueene W.t.r Board's counter proDoial on state plan to lease land near Lea- ourg uam for fish propagation purposes. The Water Board nronosnl u. adopted Monday night at a regu lar meeting. It offered the state a ZO-year lease on the land on which the game commission has proposed construction of holding ponds to allow fingerling fish to mature to legal size. The latest' of a series of nro- posals, the present one contains an emergency recapture clause which would enable the citv to mane use of the hitherto unde veloped land if necessary. The commission has been informed that the water board has no rea son to believe that it will need the property in the forseeable future but feels it must protect Its inter est in the Leaburg site. Cart Baker, one of the group planning to go to Portland, said he believed the Water Board pro posal "very fair." Others, includ ing Mert Foltz, Bill Shepnard. and Carroll Adams, expressed favor able opinions of the proposal. Baker said the commission has tentatively budgeted $90,000 for the development of the brooding ponds, which would be across the river from the present hatchery site. He said about $24,000 of this would be used to construct the ponds and the remainder would finance the expanded restocking program.

Under Study (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) Church fo Present Scientific Film Vivid full-color scenes from astronomy and natural science will be featured In "The God of Crea tion," a sound movie to be shown at the First Christian Church Wednesday at 7:18 p.m. A fel lowship dinner will precede the film at 0:30 p.m. The picture, produced by Dr. Irwin A. Moon in the Los Angeles laboratories of Moody Institute of Science, has been shown more than 2 million people In this country, and is now being shown In Europe. It is one of a aeries of evangelistic films. Fea hiring astronomical photo graphs taken through the slant telescope en Mt Wilson Observa tory In California, the film will also show natural-color pictures of photosynthesis, the mysterious food-manufacturing process re sulting from the action of sun light on leaves. At the conclu sion of the film, photomicrography shows the audience the tiny or ganism! in a drop of water en larged more than a million times, water district, such as Rivei- road, served by the Eugene system. Dr. Dow said such rates would, In the committee's estimation, be too high for- Springfield which would use a much greater volume of water. The council, after.hearlng a let ter written by Oscar Shockley, ac cepted his resignation from the city planning commission. . Shockley, who was president of the planners, said his resignation was submitted "In view of recent events" and because of pressing business problems. Mayor Claude Gerlach submitted the name of William S. Fort as an appointment to the planning com mission and the council accepted. Fort was formerly city attorney here and was instrumental in the formation of the new comprehen sive zoning plan for the city. The council had final readings and passed the following ordinances: 1 Granting an exclusive fran chise to the Oregon Motor Stages for operating bus lines In the city until June 30, 1954. The bus com pany pays the city $200 a year for the rights and a sum of $50 for any additional routes over and above the present number. 2 An ordinance licensing taxi services, requiring a license of $100 per year plus $10 for each taxi cab. The ordinance also stipulates that there shall be no more than one taxicab for each 1200 popula tion. 3 The area in the eastern part of the city including the new Maple school was Included In Ward Six. 4 Two ordinances, one waiving the city's rights to a portion of Crest Lane, and one giving up rights to a portion of Park Lane. Both streets are on Emerald Heights and the vacated portion amounts to about one block In each case. The council accepted the city engineer's report on the- large sewer job in the eastern part ofi the city, constructed by Marquis j and McKy and ordered the attor ney to begin preparations for an assessment ordinance. The job, in-' eluding the engineer's fees amounts to $23,616 of which nearly $5000 will be assumed by the city for ex tension of main sewer trunk line. Property owners wil lbe assessed slightly over $18,000. A group of local business men, with S. W. Alexander as their spokesman, presented a letter with 90 businessmen's signatures to the council. The letter requested that the city retain the manager-council form of government and stip ulated that the manager be given a "proper" opportunity to "prove his worth. The Mayor read a letter to the council from County Sheriff C A. Swarta which declared that the county will cooperate. Insofar as possible under the crowded eon- dltlons, to take care of this city's prisoners until Springfield can provide its own facilities. The sheriff had previously told the eity that the county could no longer handle its prisoners after July 1, 1948. The letter stated that the county had reconsidered its original stand because It was un derstood that Springfield is con sidering means of acquiring its own jail facilities. In other action the Council: 1 Turnd a petition requesting the paving and curbing of G St from Twelfth to Fourteenth St. over to the council's street com mittee. 2 Authorized a license to op erate the Springfield Garbage Service to James C. Cook. Cook has purchased the business which has been operated by George X Yost. 8 Authorized the purchase of two new $52 sirens for the two city traffic vehicles. 4 Accepted a bid of $44.25 from the West M St. Body and Fender Shop to repair the city's police car which was involved in minor accident recently. 5 Passed an ordinance estab lishing procedure to be followed at council meetings. On a roll call vote Councilman Gilbert Shoush, Ward Fix, voted against the ordi nane because he said that 12 hours notice for a special meet ing of the council was not long enough. He also objected to the stipulation that three members of the council could call a special meeting. 6 The council requested Moun tain States Power Co. to install three fire hydrarlts In the Mo hawk addition to the city.
