The com plaints asserted that these bams were noisome, unsightly and a detri ment to that part of the city. The petition related that both barns were built years ago in de fiance of a city ordinance. The council voted to do away with the T. L. Colwell barn by de claring it a fire menace which must be removed, and to begin condemna tion proceedings against the W, J. Predenburg lot and barn. Bonne minor ordinances relating to Individ ual property matters, and other business of minor nature was also considered by the council. Chamber Report Adopted. Following is the report of the Chamber of Commerce special com mittee acting In conjunction with the city council health committee In recommending a course of action to be followed by the city In the solution of Its sewage problem, after holding a series of meetings In dis cussion of the problem, which was approved by President O. O. Alender fer. president of the chamber, and adopted unanimously by the city council last night: "It Is the opinion of your com mittee that the city of Medford should prepare immediately to em ploy a sanitary engineer for the purpose of making a complete sur vey of the sanitation system of Medford, and the problem of sew age disposal as well as that of sew age collection and disposition. The engineer employed should make com plete recommendations to the city for a long-time program of sanita tion for the city of Medford. includ ing recommendations for the type of disposal plant to be used, and cost estimates for Its construction. The committee believes that on the basis of a complet sanitation pro gram for this city, the people of Medford can be educated to the point where they will authorize the financing necessary for the solution of this problem. "Your committee sent letters to a number of sanitary engineers, in viting proposals on this matter, and by correspondence and by personal interview, contacts were made with the following sanitary engineers: W. J. Roberts, Tacoma; P. 8. Currle Engineering Co.. San Bernardino; L. R. Stockman, Baker; Pearse, Oreeley and Hansen, Chicago; C. C. Hockley. Portland; Harry N. Jenks. Berkeley; Lee R. Cook, Eugene; Burns, McDon nell and Smith of Los Angeles and Kansas City; Stevens and Koon, Portland. "Prom this list of sanitary engi neers, the committee recommends that Mr, Samuel A. Greeley of the firm of Pearse, Oreeley and Hansen of Chicago, be employed by the city of Medford to make the above mentioned survey. In accordance with his proposal submitted on March 0. 1933, the original of which Is at tached to this report. "There is no doubt in the minds of this committee but that the firm of Pearse, Oreeley and Hansen are eminently qualified to accomplish the program laid down by his com mittee. They have had extensive experience in the Installation and operation of many sewage disposal plants, and their reputation as con-, suiting engineers is beyond reproach. "The committee wishes to express Its gratitude to the members of the city health committee and to the city engineer, Fred Scheffel. for their valuable service In formulating this program. "It is our recommendation that the report be adopted by the board of directors, and submitted with the endorsement of the chamber to i the city council for final action, and that this committee be dis charged. "Very truly yours. "SEWAGE DISPOSAL COMMITTEE. R, A. Hubbard, chairman; J. C. Mann. J, C. Thompson, W. H. Pluhrer. H. W. Hamlin. H. S. Deuel. "CITY HEALTH COMMITTEE. W. W. Allen, chairman; C. C.

She is featured with Winnie Ltghtner in the story of a girl who tried anything once even marriage. The excellent short sub ject program Is headed by a baseball reel featuring Babe Ruth, entitled "Perfect Control." Also In the bill Is the April Horoscope, a McNamee news reel and a clever comedy, "Shake a Leg," featuring Thelma White and Fanny Watson. Joan Blondell Has Part In Comedy At Craterian Theatre (By Jack Ret law.) Most everyone today Is familiar with the famed Three Musketeers and thier extraordinary exploits of history. How may, however, are familiar with the Three Muskteers of feminine land, whose exploits pale even the original trio's adventures into Insig nificance? We refer, of course, to that trio of blonde "gals" Joan Blondell. Ina Claire and Madge Evans, who enact the, screen roles In that rip-roaring picture, "The Greks Have a Word for Them," showing today and tomorrow at the Pox Craterian theater. The title of "Three Musketeers" for three girls, however. Is rather mis no me r, Ra t her, It sh ould be the "Three-Must-Get-Thelrs!" And how! These golden tressed maidens start out In life as working girls and end up working men. What they dont do to millionaires and their "rolls" Is nobody's business. In the end, how ever, they manage to "get ahead" and what battles they do put up for the do-ray-mel "The Greeks Have a Word for Them" was produced strictly for laughing purposes and surely achieves Its aim. Roar after roar follows as the girls adventure here and there among the "Wall Street play-boys. A clever added hit on this program Is the AI St. John comedy, "All Seal ed Up." It's a scream from beginning to end. AT LUNCH IE! Optimism reigned today at the luncheon of the Lions club at Hotel Holland, from the opening song to the leading address given by C. T. Baker, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, who assured the Lions that the year 1933 is going to bring Increased business if each man will put his shoulder to the wheel. Slftns of a good pear crop, hope o; raising necessary funds for launching it, prospects for increased travel in the Pacific northwest and opening of new Industries here, were listed by Mr. Baker as Justification for his stand. In voicing an intelligent farewell to tiie year 1931 and the need for an optimistic attitude on the part of all American cltzens. he referred to an article by the editor of Nation's Business and a recent editorial by Robt. W. Rnhl in the Medford Mail Tribune. Plans for organizing an agricultur al credit corporation here were ex plained by Mr. Baker, who informed the Lions that negotiations are now underway to obtain from the South ern Pacific a loan of W5.000, neces sary as capital, to form the corpora tion through which the ftaso.ooo nec essary to Insure production of the local fruit crop can be borrowed. The Olympic games and numerous conventions to be staged on the Pa clfic coast this summer will bring many travelers through Oregon, and Jackson county alonw with other re glons Is prepared to acquaint these travelers with the resources, scenic wonders and ideal living conditions offered here.
