Street Vacation
Brings Protests
Vacation of Alder street fromi
Rural to Oxford as requested by
the Salem school district is meet
ing with some opposition by cer
tain residents of the neighbor
hood involved. Notice of the
opposition was voiced during
Tuesday night's meeting of the
school directors by Attorney El
mer M. Amundsen who present
ed a map which he said backed
up his assertion that there now
exists a tract three blocks wide
and seven long without cross
streets. The property involved
comprises Leslie junior high
school as well as land purchased
for a possible second high school.
The block long section of Al
der street that the school board
seeks to have vacated has been
dedicated but never improved.
Given assurance more than two
years ago that its closure would
never be contested the school
board authorized the construc
tion of an athletic field which
overlapped Alder street. Reop-I
ening of the street involved,
would ruin the athletic field for
all practical purposes. j
Amundsen said that opposi
tion to the vacation of Alder
street would probably be drop
ped if the board agreed to the
purchase of two lots at a total
cost of $1600 which could be
used as a stub street.
The board agreed to house in!
the West Salem schools the sev
enth and eighth grade classes'
from Eola. The Eola district has
grown to such an extent that it,
finds its accommodations badly J
crowded. Superintendent Frank
B. Bennett said that facilities in
West Salem were ample to take
care of the 19 Eola pupils in-'
volved. The Eola district will
pay the regular tuition charge
and transportation costs.
Superintendent Bennett and
Curricular Director Harry John
son were given authority to at
tend national conventions dur
ing the summer.

Orion, Mighty Hunter, Soon
To Dominate the Winter Sky
By J. HUGH PRl'ETT
Astronomer. Extension Division, Oregon Higher Education System
Orion, the Mighty Hunter of Greek mythology and the finest
of all star groups, soon will dominate the early evening sky. So
majestic is the nightly march of
southern heavens that all should
favorite of the ancient poets, Orion retains his popularity in mod
ern literature.
Like a massive warrior lei
surely rising face upwards
from his bed. Orion and his
weapons require fully two hours
to clear the due-eastern horizon.
Over an unobstructed sky line,
this process is completed this
week around 8 p.m. standard
time. 9 p.m. daylight time.
Two stars of this fine constel
lation are strikingly brilliant:
red Betelgeuse in the hunter's
right shoulder; and farther
south, sparkling, white Rigel.
the shoe buckle of his upraised
left foot. Between these, three
very conspicuous stars of lesser
luminosity, equal in spacing and
brightness, mark his belt. Pen
dent from the belt, faint stars
trace a short dagger.

According to ancient myths.'" " """'''"Mem, say they are satisfied with
Orion w the tallest and most'
handsome of men. Once blinded
by an adversary, he regained his:
sight by finding "the place of
sunrise." Again happy, he
hunted the Cretan woods in
company with Artemis, goddess
of the chase. At his death, he
was given an immortal place
among the shining stars.
The distinctive red color of
Betelgeuse indicates it is a rel-
atively cool star. (Avoid pro-'
nouncing this "Beetle Juice" as
do some). It sometimes swells
up like a rubber balloon and
about doubles in diameter. The
wnue, guttering Higei is so re-
mote that the light reaching our
eyes tonight started 100 years
before Columbus made his noted
voyage.
The region of the small stars
of the dagger is glorious through
strong field glasses. Numerous
twinkling points of light flash
into view. All the stars of the
dagger become double. The
"lowest but one" is seen sur
