Salem, Oregon, Tuesday, February 12, 1957 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL 'Section 1 Page 9 Winter Grind Fails to Damage South River Road This Yeai By FRED ZIMMERMAN Capital Journal Writer South River road, which follows the cast bank of the Willamette winter is largely responsible for the cessation of earth movement. Many Houri of Work For a number of years the coun- river to a point near Orville. has 'V "ad department has-been corn- caused the Marion county road do partment little trouble this winter. This is in contrast to a year ago when heavy rains caused a slip page of earth from the uphill side, which in turn resulted in consid erable buckling of the road sur face between East Independence and Orville. , County Commissioner Roy Rice, who, over the past few years has had occasion to observe the con dition of the South River road, believes the lack of moisture this Dallas Men Found Guilty Of Forgery One man was sentenced" to three concurrent 18-month terms in the slate prison Monday by Circuit Judge Georfie R. Duncan, while a companion was placed on proba tion for five .vears and ordered to make restitution. Charles LeRoy Armstrong, Dal las, found guilty by a jury on two check forgery counts involving checks of (38 and $23, was sen tenced to serve 18 months on each charge. In addition he received another 18-months jolt for parole violation. The sentences will run concurrently. Donald William Schnee, also of Dallas, convicted with Armstrong on the $23 check charge, was placed on probation for five years while being required to make resti tution. , Charles Pcrrie Relhcrford, 685 Center St., waived grand jury in vestigation on a charge nf obtain ing money and property by false pretenses. The case was continued to Feb. 18. Suit Charges In jury of Arm A traffic accident, involving a truck and an automobile at Cen ter and Cottage streets in August, 1955, has been brought into Marion county circuit court for settlement. Robert Hvidsten brought suit against the .Smilhwick Concrete Products company for $2,500 gen eral damages in addition to $200 loss of wages, $15 medical services and $50 damages to his car. The plaintiff states that he re ceived an injured right arm when his automobile was struck by a truck owned by the defendant company. Americans planning to visit Turkey no longer arc required to have visas. polled to spend many hours and a considerable amount of money in keeping South River road under control. Bellowing last winter's excess ive damage it was decided to wait a considerable length of time be fore making permanent repairs. So the worst stretch of a few hun dred yards was smoothed out and a coating of oil placed to keen the surface from being scattered by passing motor vehicles. Commissioner Rice believes the situation will not be brought un der control until drainage ditches of considerable magnitude are placed above the road to take care of tho overflow from two ."lakes" that fill up during neriods of ex cessive rainfall. This overflow seeps into the earth until it reach es an almost impervious slip plane, then moves on down the slope, carrying top soil with it. Bothers RIght-of-Way Last year the slippage en croached upon the Oregon Electric Police Fish Bike From Mill Creek Anyone who has lost an al most new girl's-type bicycle and hai been unable to get trace of It might do well to check with the state police. A bike of this description Wat fished out of Mill creek near the east city limits by the police. They report that no one has eon tactcd either the city police or (he shcrlff'i office concerning such a bicycle. right-of-way which parallels the county road. This situation necess itated the expenditure of a con siderable sum of money to pre vent the land from moving the tracks further toward the , river. Since South River road connects Salem and Independence via the Williamette river bridge, the -flow of traffic is rather extensive, par ticularly during the harvest sea son. ' A few years ago the county joined with the state and the fed eral government in widening and re-aligning South River road from the city limits to a point near Roberts. There is considerable work yet to be done south of Rob erts but the authorities hesitate to make much of an investment in a road that refuses to stay put. .'3 tJID WEDNESDAY - FEB. 13 ii ism 2 Art Exhibit - Featuring Works of Melville T.
