THE STAYT0N CEMENT CLUB Presents It's First ANNUAL STAG Friday, July 22, 9:00 P.M. STAYTON'S COMMUNITY BLDG. FOOD - DRINKS Top Flight Show From Seattle company Thursday filed its an company on block 35 North the Salem zoning commission or "city council had lawfully before it duly authorized and legal remonstrances signed by more than 30 -per cent of the owner: of real property in the affected area. The answer savs that some of the petitioners attempted to withdraw from the petition for a zone change to allow cstab lishment of the substation and object to the change, but it avers that they were induced to attempt to change their position by plaintiff misrepresenting the effect of such zone change and alleges they would not have asked that their names be with drawn but for such alleged mis representations. Other signers of the alleged remonstrance pc tition, says the answer, did not have authority to sign it and were not qwners as defined by city ordinance. The answer savs that the de fendant has expanded funds and made plans for the erection of the subsatlon and that delay in the construction and operation will cost further funds and pre vent the introduction of needed electric service in the area to be served.
