Renewal Complex Planned 54-Unit Scheme In Springfield Are To Cost $500,000 Construction of a $500, 000 54-unit apartment com plex in Springfield's urban renewal area is scheduled to start late this summer. Lee Anderson, executive sec retary of the Lane County Hous ing Authority, said Wednesday the two-story garden-type apart ment structures will be built on a two-acre tract in the vicinity of First and F Streets. Parkside Inc., a corporation, will build the housing units comprising one, two and three bedroom apartments. President of the corporation is Harry Ritchie of Eugene. Vice presi dent is Maurie Jacobs, also of Eugene. K. W. Battleson of Eu gene is treasurer. Paul Bogea, architect for the project, said Tuesday it is hoped that the rent for the units will range from $80 to $95. He said each apartment will have its own yard. The corporation has offered to purchase the two-acre site for $37,969, somewhat more than the appraised price of the land. Anderson said the Lane Coun ty Housing Authority will meet next Monday afternoon to take formal action on the firm's pur chase offer. Already under construction in the urban renewal area is a 28 unit apartment at 650 Mill St. Cost of this project is about $250,000, Anderson said.

VLT to 'Revive' 'No Flowers' The Very Little Theater production of "Send Me No Flowers" will be "revived" for three performances next week. The show, which ended its original nine-performance run June 2, will be given Thurs day, Friday and Saturday, June 21-23. The Thursday night performance, June 21 has been sold out to a private group, however. Tickets for the other two performances will be avail able at the theater boxoffice at 24th and Hilyard beginning Monday. Second Lane Youth Camp To Be Given The second Lane County youth camp, for some 30 boys 15 to 18 years old, will open Monday at Blue Mountain Park south of Cottage Grove. The camp will be similar to one last year in the same spot when 20 boys participated for eight weeks. This year's camp will last 10 weeks. Youth camps were made pos sible by an act of the 1961 Legis lature appropriating $50,000 to the State Forestry Department for experimental camps during the 1961-b3 biennium. Lane was the only county to have a camp last year. This summer Marion County will also have one. Costs are shared by the state and the county. Glenn Hoff, teacher at How ard elementary school in Eu gene, director of last i year's camp, will again be director for the camp this summer. The goal of the camp is to encourage potential school drop outs to remain in school and complete their educations. Top Quarter Horses to Compete Here Almost 200 registered quarter horses will compete for $3,000 in purses at the Lane County Fairgrounds this week end. The show will bring together the top quarter horses from the Pacific Northwest, Western Canada, California and even one horse from Hawaii. The show is being sponsored by the Oregon Quarter Horse Assn. It will start Friday morning and continue through Sunday. Admission will be $1 for adults and 50 cents for children at the Saturday night and Sunday after noon events. There will be no charge during Friday's halter class competition or during elimination events scheduled earlier Saturday and Sunday morning. Quarter horses gain their name from the fact the breed was originated for quarter-mile distance racing. They are speedy, sure-footed animals that are favored by working cowboys and rodeo performers, and are popular for pleas ure riding and show competition. Kalph Cook, owner of Creek Trees Farm near Spring field, is show manager and Emilie Marsh, Eugene, is serv ing as show secretary. The judge for the show will be Dee Burk, of Waggoner, Okla., considered one of the nation's best-informed judges for quarter horses. The Friday halter classes will get under way at. 7 a.m. standard, 8 a.m. daylight in the covered arena building at the Lane County Fairgrounds. Here the horses will be judg ed for their conformation. The working classes will be Saturday and Sunday and it is in these events that the greatest spectator interest lies. Because so many horses are entered in some of the events, Saturday and Sunday morning will be devoted to elimina tion rounds. The elimination winners will compete Saturday night, starting at 7 p.m. standard, 8 p.m. daylight, and Sun day afternoon, starting at 12:30 p.m. standard, 1:30 p.m. daylight. Each of the shows will start with a 'Tarade of Cham pions," for horses that have earned that designation from points won in previous shows. Popular working class events include "cutting," in which the horses "cut out" a designated cow from a herd without any assistance from the rider. There will be an open cut ting class Saturday night and two cutting classes for senior and junior registered quarter horses only on Sunday after noon. Other working classes include "bit reining," in which the horse and rider demonstrate skills in quick stopping and maneuvering; barrel racing, in which the course is around a series of barrels; calf roping; western riding; pole bend ing, western pleasure riding; and other events which show off the special skills of the quarter horse. There will be events for junior riders (under 19 years of age) both Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. The youth activities are open to all horses, not just registered quarter horses. Dale Robertson, who is "Jim Hardie" of television's "Tales of Wells Fargo," will enter his prize horse, "Tidy Bar," in some of the events. He purchased the horse from the Creek Tree Farm at Springfield. Robertson will be unable to be here to personally ride his sors since he is on location for a motion picture near Tucson. His horse will be ridden by Tony Garcia, trainer at the Creek Trees Farm. Tickets for the quarter horse show may be purchased from Four H Club members, who earn a commission, or at the Outdoor Store in Eugene or Fee and Richey Jewelers in Springfield. Tickets may be also purchased at the arena door for each performance. h fx awaartrsawaVa-ii-iMM-w-KMt m Smart "Cutting" will be one of the events in this weekend's Oregon Quarter Horse Assn. show at the Lane County Fairgrounds. Horses are HnvCf1 required to "cut out" a designated cow from 1 lUIoC a herd without help from the rider, as the O 1 aMaaaWH horse, "Prince Tivio" is doing here. "Prince Tivio," ridden by J. L. Bartlett above, is owned by the Deer Island Ranch, near Portland, and is expected to be one of this weekend's competitors. ?i2ayouMAMA I DO VOl MEAN TO TELL ME M (SnfiSml THAT'S Mt BLANKET FLYING mmmrs ( AflOGHJ Fire Runs (From noon daylight Tuesday until noon day- light Wednesday.) , Eugene 6:01 p.m. Tuesday I Flue fire at 221 E. 3rd Ave. No damage.

SECTION B EUGENE, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 13, 1962 For at Least a Month City Hall Construction Start Set Back By DAN WYANT Of the Register-Guard The start of construction of Eugene's new city hall will be delayed at least a month, City Manager Hugh McKinley said Tuesday. Originally, the city had hoped to call for bids on the project by May 15 and to award the contract around June 15. But McKinley said architects preparing the plans and specifications are be hind schedule. Now the tenta tive date for awarding the contract has been set for July 23. McKinley said a meeting has been set for this Friday where city department heads will meet with the architects for a last review of the plans. Then, the plans will be pre sented to the Eugene City Council for final approval at the council's June 21 com-mittee-of-the-whole meeting. Assuming that the plans are accepted, contractors will then be requested to submit their bids. The bid opening will be set sometime in advance of the council's July 23 meeting so the contract can be award ed at that meeting, if the low bid is acceptable. McKinley said this means that actual work on the con struction can't get under way until late in July. This should still allow the contractor time to get "out of the mud" be fore winter, he said. James Longwood, of the architectural firm of Stafford, Morin & Longwood, said the delay in completing plans and specifications is due to the fact that "it is a compli cated job, principally." Longwood said several ma jor contractors now will prob ably be in a position to bid on the city hall job next month Postmaster Asks Contract Bids by Monday Postmaster Ethan L. Newman has announced that bids for two contract stations are due by 4 p.m. standard, 5 p.m. daylight Monday at his office in the Eu gene postoffice. One station is to be located within a four-block area from the Ferry Street bridge to the 400 block on Coburg Road and the other to be within a two block area of E. 18th Avenue and Oak Street, Both stations are to be oper ated for a period of one year from July 1, 1962. but would not have been able to if the original schedule had been followed. The delay ; may mean more bids and a better price to the city, he said. When the city went to court earlier this year to gain control of several properties , In the square block where the city hall will be built, Mc Kinley testified it was neces sary to get the land cleared lor a quick start on construc tion. The city wanted to take possession of all the proper ties by April 15 but Circuit Judge Lyle K. Wolff gave the owners until May 2 to vacate) the land. The judge said that would give the city time to get the block cleared two weeks ahead nf the then contem plated June 15 bid opening. f HEARD THE NEWS?
