SPECIAL SESSION Hie "Mad Marine", Bob Kennaston of Gold Hill, aftr beating the vener able Karwlck of Riusla Into submit. ton last Monday, has earned hi right to a top main event ppot at the Arm ory neit week, according to Promoter Mack Llltard, who today announced that he has signed Jack Londos. 310 pound cousin of the former world champion, Jim Londos. to meet the marine. In his only appearance here, two weeks ago Londos lost by a close mar gin to Toots Elites In a close hard match, displaying a distinct know ledge of how to conduct himself in the ring. During that match he had no occasion to become dirty, he and Estes breaking clean on only a word from Referee Friable, but those who hare seen him In action against "meanlea" state that he la a wildcat when he gets his hair rubbed the wrong way. Very few believe that Kennaston can meet anyone without doing Just that. Chief Thunderblrd, large Canadian Indian, tossed Toy Aho about with such ridiculous ease last week that the fans have demanded that he be matched against a good opponent, so Lillard has obliged by signing Babe Smolinsky, Polish war-horse who has appeared here before. Smollnsky's popularity Is about of the same cali ber as that extended to Kennaston so the match should be a wild -fire af fair. Smollnsky Is the type of grap pier who gets huge delight In smack ing an opponent In the face with his ample feet, and if a few bicuspids go by the board during the party, the more the merrier for the Babe. As yet Lillard has not been able to sign any more tweak and twitch art ists for the opening bout, but stated today that ho will have two good men signed by tomorrow. Lillard an nounced when he changed the wrest ling date from Thursday to Monday that he would make up for the Irreg ularity by supplying better cards, and to date has kept his promise. SALEM. Oct. 16.

Communications It Tft fftO.OOO Not 130,000 To the Editor: There are some facts concerning the proposed reservoir bond issue which I think the voters are entitled j to know, before they cast their bal-1 lots, which I am sure they do not know. Many are under the Impression 4hat If we authorize thla bond Issue that It will Increase the city's bonded In debtedness only 930.000 and that no additional taxes can be levied. This is far from the true facts, snd I be lieve the people should be Informed before they vote. The facts are, the city council Is asking for authority to bond for EIGHTY THOUSAND DOLLARS, and that they be authorised to levy a tax upon the property In Medford to pay these bonds. Under Section 8 of the ctty ordi nance published in the Mall Tribune under date of October 8 calling a spe cial election for October 36 to vote upon this, bond issue of EIGHTY THOUSAND dollars to build a new reservoir, true following la one para graph verbatim of said section 3: "The council is hereby author , tzed to levy taxes In addition to all other taxes on the taxable property of the City of Medford In an amount sufficient to pay the principal and Interest on the bonds authorized." The Inference which has been put cut through some of the news and editorial columns would lead us to believe that the voting of these bonds is merely a formality which we must go through with to enable the water commission to build and pay for a new reservoir. This Is not the case. A. W. PIPES. Medford. October 16. Ed. Note: There has been no at tempt to create the Impression the people will vote on a bond Issue of 930,000. They will vote on a bond Isb! for 980.000. The fact remains that several years ago the people au thorised water bonds for 950.000 which have never been sold, and If the 960.000 bond sre voted, these 1 950.000 bonds will be cancelled. In other words, only a net increase of approximately 950.00t In the total bonded Indebtedness AUTHORIZED BY THE PEOPLE will be Involved. The bonds, of course, are protected by the tsxing power of the city. this Is necessary to legalise the bonds, but by an arrangement with the water commission, the 980.000 bonds, if voted, will be paid Mf from water receipts, at the present rates, and therefore will not Involve any In crease In the property tax lvy, nor any Increase In the present water rates.

He said he bought the deAth gun In Cheyenne, Wyo., but steadfastly maintains his mind la blank regarding any shootings. Police are checking the theory that he may be implicated In two atroci ous attack cases against women In San Diego, and the disappearance Sunday of a Rock Springs, Wyo., hitch nicker he picked up. In May, he ran down a womn and two children In Winnemuoca, Nev., and later paid a 8500 fine for drunken driving and 9500 damages to the woman.

(UP) Twinkling stars, once believed only a fantasy of childhood, today are a proven reality, according to as tronomical findings Just published by Dr. E. A. Fath, of Carleton col lege here. Dr. Fath and his aasUtant stud ied three stars, finding brightness variations In all three, his report; sam. The variations, however, can not be seen with the naked eye. The apparent twinkling of the stars which we can sep. he said, is caused by the action of the atmos phere on light. A perfectly steady light may seem to twinkle under such conditions, as shown by the appearance of a distant electric light or lantern at night. Aid to Star Study The variations observed by Dr. Fath coincided with variations In the star dlametera ranging from 6.000 miles In one of the smaller stars to as high as 6.000,000 miles In another. Dr. Fnth'a discovery msy give a new clue to 'the exact nature of stars, now undetermined, astronomers believe. In his report the Carleton astron omer atatea that small and more or leas Irregular variations in the light of some of the brighter stars have been detected previously by astronomers, but have been sus pected of being either accidental ! or due to errors of observations j Measurement of the brightness, which was carried on at the Lick E Observatory at Mount Hamilton. J Cal was done with a photo-elec-1 trio photometer designed by Dr. j Fath. Three, of tho brightest stars ; In the heavens were studied Vega, In the constellation Lyra; Beta, in the constellation Canla Major; and Alpha Cygni, the constellation Cyg nus, or the Swan. These stars are about 40. 1,000, ard 10,000 times, respectively, as bright as the sun. Radial Velocity Checked While brightness measurement"! were made, the radial velocity oi the stars also was studied. The radial velocity In the speed at which the surface of the star is approach ing or receding from the earth. When these two separate observa tions were checked, It was discov ered that the atara were brightest when the radial velocity waa the smallest. Dr. Fath Interprets the coinci dence to mean that these stars must be pulsating, that la, expand ing and contracting In size- The contraction In the case of Alpha Cygnl amounts to about 6,000,000 miles.
