A. T. GOODWIN Elected by Alumni High Court Justice Given Alumni Post Justice A. T. Goowwin of the Oregon Supreme Court has been elected president of the Univer sity of Oregon Alumni Assn. for 1962-63. Goodwin has been active in university alumni affairs and has served on the association's executive committee for a num ber of years. He was graduated from the university School of Journalism in 1947 and received a bachelor of. laws degree in 1949 and a doctor of jurispru dence degree in 1951 from the university School of Law, In the alumni association elec tions, held last Saturday, Lester E. Anderson of Eugene, class of '43 and former alumni secretary, was named vice-president, and Willis Warren of Portland, '30, was named treasurer. Elected to the executive com mittee were Corland Mobley of Portland, '51; Robert Davis of Grants Pass, '48; Robert Thomas of Bend, '36; Orville Thompson of Albany, '35; Robert Summers, Eugene, '55; and Greer Drew, Klamath Falls, '36. The elected officers and the alumni secre tary, William Landers, also serve on the executive com mittee. The alumni association, Lan ders said Thursday, is now op crating under the new constitu tion adopted last spring. This provides dues-free membership for all graduates and all former students of the University. The alumni magazine, "Old Oregon," now goes to all these members, who total more than 42,000. Under the new constitution the association is governed by an expanded board of directors, which includes the executive committee, student and admiis trative representation, and rep resentatives from the Duck Club, Oregon Mothers, Oregon Dads, and other allied organizations. Well Liability 'A Mistake' The City of Springfield should not consider itself economically liable for claims that construction of a trunk line sewer has caused several wells to go dry in the vicinity of 54th and Main streets, city officials were informed Friday. Sidney S. Lasswell, representative of the engineering firm of Cornell, Howland, Hayes & Merryfield of Corvallis, made this statement in a letter to Lem Eison. city engineer. L. M. Spurrier, 5390 McKonzie Highway, told the city coun cil last week that the recent installation of the sewer line has dried up his 20-foot well. "I feel I have been damaged," he said. The council then called for an investigation. Lasswell's letter said: "After our investigation of the well difficulties on the Spurrier property, it is my opinion that the city should not consider payment of claims for damages on such shallow wells as a result of the recent sewer con struction." Lasswell said that while there is some evidence that the sewer construction could have had some effect on the Spur rier well, it is also "very possible," because of the well's shallow depth, that a combination of other factors also con tributed to the difficulty. "There is no reason at this time to believe that the con dition is permanent, since it is very possible that the ground water later will re-establish and maintain itself during the coming winter. Because of these circumstances, we feel the city would be making a mistake in setting a precedent for payment of damages on any private below-ground installation as a result of utility construction in public right-of-way," the letter concluded. City Manager Frank Smiley is expected to discuss con tents of the letter with the city council Monday night. Compromise Reached On Sidewalk Location Springfield councilmcn, meet ing informally Thursday even ing, with M Street property owners, agreed on a "compro mise proposal'Wor the location of a proposed sidewalk between Eighth and Ninth Streets. Property owners originally petitioned for construction of a sidewalk adjacent to the curb. The city's normal policy, how ever, calls for about a six-foot-wide parking strip between side walk and curb if there is suffi cient right-of-way. Councilmcn, after viewing the premises in question, told prop erty owners Thursday night they will approve a plan calling for location of the sidewalk about three feet from the curb. This proposal "splits the differ ence" between what property Thornton to Open Tri-County Office PORTLAND (UPD Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton will be on hand here Monday for the open ing of tri-county headquarters of the Thornton for Governor Committee.

Smoke, Clouds to Keep Lid On Emerald Empire Awhile Eugene, Springfield and much of the rest of the Emerald Empire will have a mostly cloudy sky through Saturday as smoke continues to hang over the area. The smoke, various sources indicated, came from burning of woodland slash and from stubble. It is trapped over the area, the Eugene weatherman said, by an "inversion" that weather phenomenon occurring when air at upper altitudes is warmer than the air near the ground. The warm upper air serves as a "ltd" to keep smoke and fog in the valleys. Above the smoke, the Eugene weatherman said, are clouds. He expects partly cloudy skies tonight and Saturday, with a high temperature of 72 degrees both days. Regional forecasters predict that temperatures will remain in the 70s for the next five days, and that there will be little or no precipitation over the weekend. asm 'WILLOW CAMPUS FAVORED SLIP-ONS FROM DURC1PS BLACK OR BROWN $11 il 95 SOFT, 1IANDSEWN LEATHER SIZES 6V4 to 14 WIDTHS A TO D OPEN TONIGHT TIL 9 P.M.
