County Building
Location Studied
A definite plan for locating a new Lane County building near
the present courthouse may be forthcoming within a month, Phil
Gilmore, Eugene architect, said this week.
Gilmore, hired by a group of local architects to coordinate plans
for a proposed city-county civic center in Eugene, has been focusing
attention on tne county building during recent weeks.
He said Thursday that local architects have been working out
individual ideas for locating a new county building somewhere
near the present courthouse, but that it may be two or three weeks
before all are agreed on a joint plan.
Gilmore added that planning for the civic center, as such, is
going ahead, but the architects are now down to individual prob
lems. He said each of the projects city library, county building,
city Duuaing, state and federal structures and the cultural center
will be studied one at a time in an attempt to coordinate them
with the remainder of the downtown civic center plan.
This plan was the result of long studv bv the local architects
They recommended a city-county center stemming from the present
county park blocks and

Snake Alarm
ATLANTA (IP) The frightened
telephone call from children at
the T. C. Sasser home while their
parents were away was convinc
ing enough to -bring Patrolman
D. T. Kirkland dashing into the
house as quickly as he could,
with revolver drawn. Opening a
closet he fired one shot at the
"big snake" the children had
found, smashing to bits a nov
elty rattlesnake made of plaster
that an elder brother had tossed
aside and forgotten.

ing to the Southern Pacific Rail
road tracks. It extends on to the
Willamette River at the east of
Skinner's Butte.
Gilmore explained that traffic
and parking in the proposed cen
ter is still a big problem. The
exact arrangement will depend
on where the buildings are located
and this, location is dependent on
me street arrangement ana traf
fic flow.
The group of architects are still
meeting periodically as they have
from the beginning last fall, to
work on the voluntary project.
EXPLAINED PROGRAM
Several members of the South
west Oregon Chapter of the
American Institute of Architects
who have been devoting time to
the civic center idea, have re
cently explained the program to
groups outside Eugene
Gilmore said he and others
travelled to Portland several
weeks ago to discuss the matter
with the Portland chapter of the
AIA. They have also showed plans
to the Willakenzie Grange, the
Eugene Realty Board and the
Springfield Realty Board.
The architects have already
met with the Eugene City Council,
the Eugene Planning Commission
and others.
Protection Rate
Cut Requested
District Objects
To Proposed Levy
Representatives of the Rain
bow Water and Fire Protection
District Friday asked Springfield
city officials for a cut in the pro
posed rate for city-furnished fire
protection during the coming fis
cal year.
The city has budgeted an esti
mated figure of $6,000 based on
the 4,2-mill levy which a con
tract between the two agencies
calls for as the amount it will
collect from the Rainbow District
during the coming year.
This amounts to an increase of
about $1,500 over the current
rate since the assessed valuation
of the district has increased by
$236,000 since last year.
Rainbow board members and
their attorney, Donald Husband,
met informally Friday afternoon
with Springfield City Manager L.
B. Bartlett, Mayor Edward C.
Harms Jr., Fire Chief Harry
Krieger, and Couneilmen Paris
Breedlove and Ralph Nichols to
protest the proposed hike in
rates.
During the fiscal year which
ends June 30, the Springfield De
partment has made 22 runs so far
in answer to Rainbow District
alarms.
The two groups agreed to con
sider a proposed 4-mill rate,
which will figure out at about
$5,000, as a compromise. That
proposal will be considered by
the full city council Monday night
and by the full board of directors
of the Rainbow District.
