THICK CLOUDS T
IY FLYERS BACK
TO MEDFORD FIELD
The five army air corps officers
who arrived here from Seattle last
Thursday took off from Municipal
airport at 9:25 thla morning but re
turned at noon because of unfavor
able weather, over Sacramento valley.
California. ,
The aviators are piloting new Boa-
lng pursuit planes from Seattle to
their base at Sel fridge field near De
troit, Mich. They are flying via
Hamilton field and Rockwell field,
near San Diego, where the ships will
be checked.
The officers are Lieut. Col. Ralph
Royce. MaJ. E. J. House, MaJ. F. C.
Nelson. MaJ. G. P. Tourtellot and
Capt. E. O'Donnell. -
Weather conditions were fairly
favorable when they took off but
Immediately after their departure
cloud formations became thicker and
lower so that when they reached the
Sacramento valley they found them
selves above a solid layer that shut
off all view of the ground. Not hav
ing facilities for blind landing, they
were forced to turn back.
With their five comrades who ar
rived from Seattle Sunday, the men
this afternoon, were remaining at the
airport, ready to take off the moment
a favorable weather report was re
ceived. The meteorological bureau,
however, held little hope for better
conditions to the south today.
STRICT DEADLINE SET
FOR LICENSE ON DOGS
HUMANE SOCIETY TOLD
The Humane society has Just learn
ed that there will be no grace period
extended beyond March 1 for failure
to secure Oregon state dog lloenses,
The penalty after March l.wlll be the
amount of the license fee plus court
costs. It Is understood that In con
nection with this year's license there
will be no recourse to Jury trials, etc.,
to avoid payment of license.
It la pointed out that this license
was created for the benefit of farm
ers suffering sheep losses through
ravages of dogs. Incorporated cltlea
receive 80 percent of this license to
handle their municipal dog problem.
Payment of the dog license In Jack
son county last year enabled the
county dog control board to Increase
the compensation on sheep losses
33 13 percent.
Licenses are a benefit to the farm
er and a necessity to the city real
dnnt;'and as a consequence the paj
ment of same cannot be avoided, the
Jaokson County Humane society said
today. The Humane society suggests
that in order to avoid needless ex
pense. all dog owners secure their
licenses before March 1. The license
Is due, whether dogs are permitted
to run at larse or kept within con
f.nes of the owners' property.

NOTE OF THANKS
ENT BY
OF
About three month ago the Mail
Tribune published a story about a
Chicago mother who named her new
born baby "Medford", after this city.
The name was found by chance on a
Guy Conner pear wrapper.
The story was picked up and pub
lished by newspapers all over the
country and radio commentators
mentioned the novel method of nam
ing a baby. Mr. Conner sent a gift
box of pears to the parents, Mr. and
Mrs. P. Pel d man.
Today the Jackson County Cham
ber of Commerce was In receipt of
the following letter from Mrs. Feld
man: ' "Your kindness and generosity
toward my son Medford, who. I know,
will never regret and forever appre
ciate being named after your very
beautiful city, are beyond words of
thanks and gratitude.
"Your wonderful present of the
delicious case of pears will long be
remembered, certainly never forgot
ten. It has been practically our topic
of conversation for days.
"It Is very heart warming to know
that my son, when only two weeks
old, was already internationally
known. Thanks to such a fine body
of men and to such a fine pear grow
er as Mr. Guy Conner.
"May we take this opportunity to
thank the gentlemen of the press of
your city for the many pleasant
paragraphs printed in their news
paper about our Medford.
"I am having a picture taken of
the baby when he Is three months
old, and you will be one of the first
to receive a print of the child whom
I know you will feel justified In his
carrying the name of your city.
"Should we ever go west for a trip
our first stop will be your pictur
esque town.
- "Again kindly accept Mr. Feld
man'a and my own appreciation with
our beet wishes "
