MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON. WEDNESDAY. MAT 5. 1937.
FOR GAY GUZZLING
Beer Stocks Laid In Hotels
Add Supplies of Cham
pagne, Wines Expects
Two Nights of Gaiety
Br ELMER W. PETERSON
LONDON, May t.Lyp) London It
readj to celebrate the coronation
with foam and bubbles.
Ho leaa than 360.000 extra barrels
erf beer, by a conservative estimate,
will be consumed before the corona
tion Is over, and the leading hotels
bare stocked up heavily with cham
pagne, wines and llquers.
The famous old toast of "Ood ssve
the King" Is going to be drunk from
one end of Lonown to the other, by
dowagers, debutantes, workmen, sol
dlers and even visitors from the South
Bea Islands.
Night Spots Catcn On.
London night life undoubtedly will
get a new boost by the coronation,
and although the night spots took
a, long time to catch on. they now
are nothing to be sniffed at.
The city's first "floor show" open
ed In wsr days: It failed. A hotel
tried It In 1931. For a long time the
west end was littered with failures
In the attempts to turn night Into
day.
It took American chorus girls to
put over the "floor show" Idea, and
they still work here In large num
bers. The expected 3.000.000 coronation
visitors will have at least two nights
of extreme gslety. At midnight, May
11, as coronation asy begins, bedlam
will bresk loose, with trumpets and
horns blowing and everybody yelling.
The night of May 13, after the king
Is crowned, will top the extravaganza
of letting the bars down.
River parties on the Thames on
large ocean and cruising liners and
on private craft will give the fin
ishing touch. River police, who res
cue about 130 persons from drowning
each year, aren't expecting to sleep
much.
Laws Interfere.
Licensing laws for liquor will inter
fere to a oertaln extent with the
night spots. Drinks may be served
In restaurants and cabarets only up
to a oertaln hour ususlly midnight
unless special permission haa been
secured.
But London hss got around that
through the so-called "night clubs"
or "bottle party clubs" where ehe
word "club" Is taken more literally
than In thst usage In America. Vis
itors to those clubs must "Join" for
a nominal fee usually about SI to
13 .AO.
The visitor signs forms which per
mit the club, aa sgent, to obtain
liquor by tbe bottle from merchsnts.
The bottles are labeled with the cus
tomer's name, placed on the table as
his property snd kept If necessary
until the customer comes bsck a
second or third time to finish off
the contents.
It all gives London a Just csuse
to be celled gsy. She'll have a rose
In her batr and confetti In her eyes
at coronation time.

repair and reconstruction or paved
streets.
Other Aid Foreseen
"The above plan has the advantage
of a bond itsue limited to $50,000.
Reconstruction work for five years
could then be carried on on a pay-
as-you-go basis without the creation
of additional Indebtedness. At the ex
piration of the five year period the
matter could then be re-submltted
to the people if advisable.
"In the meantime it Is possible
that some relief might be obtained
from a share of gasoline taxes or
other sources."
Upon recommendation of George T
Frey for the land and appraisal
committee, the council approved the
sale of the following city-owned
property: lots II and south half of
lot 10, (Ashland avenue) Medford
Heights addition to C. W. and Lucy
C. James; lot on south side of Reddy
avenue, 60 feet west of Llndley ave
nue, to Clarice Rivers; lot 7 on Mur
ray avenue between Peach and Hamil
ton streets to W. E. Pinne.
Sewer Line Approved
s Council approved extension of the
sewer line for 180 feet on Columbus
avenue south of Sunset avenue. A
petition for the Improvement was
filed some time ago and the cost la
to be assessed against the property
benefited under the, Bancroft aystem
of Installment payment over a. period
of ten years. Estimated cost was given
by City Superintendent Fred W.
Scheffel as 9450.
Reporting for the streets and roads
committee, Mr. Schade recommended
extension of the sewer line on South
Elm street to the south city limit,
estimated cost being given as $2500.
Dr. L. D. Inskeep, city health offi
cer, said the Elm street sewer exten
sion was a sanitary necessity. He
added that construction of the sewer
would stimulate the building of low
cost homes, a type of dwelling he said
Is badly needed here for workers in
the small wage brackets. The mat
ter, however, was referred to the fin
ance committee for further study.
Council adopted a recommendation
of the public safety committee that
a claim for 1142.44 by the Southern
Pacific company be paid. The rail

and 10 feet on Park, street. The

tltlon, the commission report said,
contained the required number of
signatures and no objection was made
to the change at a meeting held April

! Ing for the purchase of a permanent

1 DICTATOR
SIXES that cost more, as well as
sixes that cost the same or less,
fail to stand up against the Stude
baker Dictator under the spotlight
of comparison.
The low-priced beautifully con-'
toured Dictator has the world's
strongest, safest, quietest steel body.
Its exceptionally spacious interior is
richly styled by Helen Dryden. Its
big trunks are by far more capacious
than those of any other six.
It's the world's first six to offer
the dual economy of the Fram oil
cleaner and gas-saving automatic
overdrive . , . the world's only six
with non-slam doors. See and drive
this sensational 1937 Dictator!
