Penalty for parking a .vehicle In front of i theater entrance- Is a $10 fine.. . ; 1'ralno for Firemen . -- i Tho general conduct of the Med ford fire department for years past and especially at the recent Liberty "building and West Sldo stable fires, and the fact that the flromen have been' hampered In . their work by crowds too close to burning struc tures In. which' many -persons who know nothing about fire fighting criticise the firemen and offer fool lsh advlco, havo aroused the mayor and councilman. 'They oven advUed Chief Lawton if he found it .necossary to got more .elbow, room anci stop the hampering talk to turn tho hoso onto the crowd ' too close In. 'Hence It would bo wise for nil spectators at a fire horoaftcr in order to avoid being drenched to stay- back a respectful dlstanco and leave the. f I ro fighting- to tho Bole Judgement of the firomeh. ' The council also demands that the ordinance raqulrlng all autos to drive to one side of tho stroot'and gtvo tho fire apparatus clear right of way and not follow In too closo bohindf w)ieu the fjre whistle blows, bo strictly en forced hereafter. ;"Th -Medford flro department for Its size and the size of tho city Is the. equal of any In tho country," Bald JIayor Crates last night.

It was decided to have the mayor take up the matter with - Mark Montgomery, the local Southern Pacific agent, and if the trouble complained of then contln-n ues, to pass a prohibitory ordinance.
