MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 28. 1934. PAGE THREE SURPLUS HER HELD HO ANSWER The argument that Medford'a sew age disposal problem can be solved by turning surplus water from Med ford'a water system down Bear creek has again been advanced, It U an nounced by Chamber of Commerce officials. In reply to this theory. City Super intendent Fred W. Scheffel made the following statement this morning. "It has been suggested time and time again that II the surplus water from Medford"s water system was turned down Bear creek, our sewage problems would be solved. Anyone thinking this to be true Is not in formed on the amount of water that la necessary to supply sufficient oxy gen to atablllze Medford's sewage. It would require ten times more water than Is now being by-passed at the city reservoir. Our irrigation water, under the Medford district, haa cost the orchard men $14,000 per cubic foot, than why turn this water down Bear creek, rather than use It for Irrigation purposes? "During the past three, years this over-flow water has been placed on valuable garden lands and has been the only source saving the crops or the Rcue river district." Chamber of Commerce officials once again reminded voters that a large vote Is hoped for on Tuesday, December 4th. Will Spend. Jlollduy With Redding Relatives. Mr. and Mrs. S. D.

Broadway Vanities On Craterian Bill For Today Showing A colorful array of talent, bringing something different from anything yet shown here, Is promised Medford In the new vaudeville unit, "Broad way Vanities." coming to the Cra terian theater tonight for a one day only engagement. Leading the parade are Ferris and Wilson, a comedy team that uses new tricks to get their laughs from the audience. The Three Sensations offer ' some thing distinctly out of the ordinary with their lightning-fast roller skat ing routine. Difficult balancing stunts while traveling at a high speed, make this act a sensation. Dancing la an accepted thing In all vaudeville shows, but Elaine and James combine dancing with rope spinning, to make their turn a nov elty hit that has been winning them much applause wherever the show has played. For more comedy again something different combined with musical nonsense, Art and Adrllllta present a routine that Is right In line with tbe unusual in the rest of the show. Every stage Bhow must have pretty girls In tap routines and the Broad way Vanities is no exception. The Brown Sisters take care of this angle to the satisfaction of all, but add something with their own particular style of harmony singing. Then there Is Buddy Brown, a young fellow with what seems to be a rubber back, doing acrobatic stunt that are supposed to be Impossible. The Rttz Carlton orchestra forms the musical background for the en tire show besides Indulging In some special numbers of their own ar rangement. ; On the screen is a story of what Is an everyday happening, and most recently brought to the attention of all readers by the newspapers in their reporting of the Vanderbllt case. "Tomorrow's Youth" is the story of a child of divorced parents, forced to spend an equal portion of each year with both his father and mother. How his natural desires are thwarted by this arrangement, are forcibly brought out In the screen story. Little Dickie Moore plays the part of the youngster, with John Mlljan as the father, Martha Sleeper as the mother and Gloria Shea as the other woman who forms the "eternal triangle" that leads to the I divorce. (CuntlLued from past one) men have used plays that needed Ut ile interference, such as laterals and passes, but last Saturday nothing but j interference plays were used and they clicked. Coach Burgher also posseses a bag of tricks that are used by the leading college teams. I Burgher has refrained from using these plays for the simple reason that there has not been a case where they were needed. However, he stat ed before leaving that he would shoot the works wth the Portland gang if the going warranted It. It has been noted that a different attitude has reigned over the Tiger camp on this year's Portland trip than prevailed In the 1932 camp. The boys feel more sure of themselves than they did then. They realize that they are not a bunch of small town hicks going to see the sights of a big city but are going to another town and play football against an other football team. Report from Portland stating the reasons for odds placed on Medford show that, although Washington high leads the league, they are gy no means the best football team In Port' land. Roosevelt, close to the bottom of the list, tied them and Grant, now In second place, defeated them. Jef ferson, which lost main playe-- be cause of Ineligibility, also tied the Washington team. The reports go on to state that the cWashlngton team Is unpopular In Portland for the reason they play a type of ball that la hard to get Inter ested In. The team starts a punting spree in the first half to wear their Ipponenta down and then when they feel they are pretty well worn out open up with a rlp-anorttng touch down drive that usually proves fatal to the opponent. OE 121 2,11 6 HAS iL APPROVAL It will be certified and sent to the assessor for extension on the tax rolls before December 1. State Senator George W. Dunn acted as chairman of the hearing.

He said It waa not his intention to Impugn the motives of anyone.

He cited how in the county clerk's office, government loans had Increased clerical work, but had also Increased receipts be tween $3000 and 4000. State Senator George W. Dunn. chairman of the budget committee, declared the budget committee haa not put a dollai in the budget that waa not absolutely necessary, and we have worked hard and long In an effort to secure tax relief. No one In Jackson county wants it more than I do. The legislature twice pre sented bills aimed at tax relief for property, but each time the voters rejected them." Question riper figures.
