The giant King apple grew in his backyard, he says, and he's proud of it out of style or not. It weighs one pound, 12 ounces; is 5 inches in diameter, and about 16 inches around. Smaller apples have figured in history and legend, among them the forbidden apple of the Garden of Eden, the apple of Schiller's William Tell which led to the lib eration of a nation, Sir Issac New ton's apple that was to lead to important milestones in the his tory of mathematics, and the wide spread apples of Johnny Apple seed.

However, the council will take final action on one sanitary sewer project proposal and on plans for the construction of four bridges across the Amazon Creek. Bids for these Jobs will be opened Monday at the office of the city manager and tabulated for presentation to the council. The sewer is proposed to serve residences on 24th Ave., from Chula Vista to Van Ness, and south on Van Ness from 24th to Reed. The Amazon bridges will replace badly deteriorated spans at Nine teenth Ave. and Chambers St. and also provide for the opening of Oak and Pearl Sts. south across the Amazon to connect with Nine teenth. Among other items to come be fore the council will be a report from the Chamber of Commerce City Council joint traffic safety committee explaining final prepa rations for circulation of a ques tionnaire to determine the effects of the present one-way street system upon downtown business operations. The council also will receive a petition signed by residents of the neighborhood in which the 20th and Washington municipal play ground Is located. This petition suggests that the playground be limited to use by youngsters only and that night league Softball games be discontinued at this location.

N Tan m Jtaaactaiaa us ioor BUg; wl - State Hosoifal Row Reviewed By Civil Service SALEM, Ore. lu.PJ The noisy shake-up of the state mental hos pital staff was under review and advisement of the civil service commission Saturday. The commission hearing of the appeal of the dismissal of psychi atrist Dr. Horace G. Miller by Superintendent Dr. C. E. Bates ended late Friday amid charges, and countercharges of incompe-i tency. Nearly 100 people witnessed the loudly voiced proceedings. Began Early Bates contended the trouble be gan early this year when he re-1 fused to recommend Miller for promotion to assistant superin-' tendent. He said that after that Miller became critical of hospital policy and caused "dissension." "He came for the purpose of practicing psychiatry," Bates said, "and until he merits promotion . . . he should keep his hands off administration." The superintendent said he wanted an assistant who would be "loyal" to him. Miller replied that former Army Officer Bates wanted to make "a leg man" out of him and make him "subservient." He said, "I don't believe in it ing subservient, or keeping a job for that reason." Been "Difficult" He admitted, that, "I guess I have of late been a little difficult." Miller told the commission that although he appealed his dismis sal, he did not want his old job back, but wished "to keep a good reputation and stay on the em ployment list." Accusations on both sides of wrongful treatment to patients j and mismanagement were sup-! ported by very litlle evidence. The appeal was heard by civil i service board members A. C. Cammack, Portland; Mrs. Effie' Turneaure, The Dallas; and J. N. Chambers, Salem, chairman. Rep. Grace Oliver Peck (D Portland), legislative member of the House social welfare commit tee, attended as an observer.
