MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORP, OREGON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1939.
PUBLIC IS ASKED
TO HELP IN HUNT
Fl
Thomas C. Parker, acting auperin
tendent of Crater Lake national park,
today asked the help of the public
In a search for Albert O. Goetze,
08-year old Asnland resident who
disappeared shortly after noon on
Sunday, September 34, while em
ployed In the park as a saw filer.
A thorough search of the park has
been made daily by park employes.
CCG enrollees and CCO foremen since
Mr. Goetze's disappearance became
known and further search of the
park is considered futile, Mr. Parker
said. The ground yesterday was cov
ered with four to five Inches of snow,
he added. Nevertheless, the search
will continue In and out of the park,
he asserted.
Considering the possibility that
Mr. Goetze might have left the park
to visit at-some unrevealed destina
tion without Informing-fellow work
ers or park executives, Mr, Parker
came to Medford late yesterday i to
enlist public aid In searching for
the missing man. !
Mr. Goetze had Intimated Just be
fore his disappearance that he was
ready to quit work, It has been
learned.
Mr. Goetze Is of slight build, being
five feet, eight Inches tall And weigh
ing 135 pounds. He has white hair
which he wears cut high and short.
He has a slight limp In his left leg.
His home Is at 296 Palm avenue,
Ashland. His picture Is published on
page 1.
Mr. Goetze : worked alone In a de
tached shop In the park and so his
disappearance was not known until
Tuesday noon, two days after It is
believed he disappeared. As soon as
his disappearance became known, an
extensive search was organized by
J. Carlisle Crouch, chief ranger,
Anyone learning anything concern
ing the whereabouts of Mr. Goetze
was asked by Mr. Parker to notify
the park service.

SALEM PLANNING
CENTENNIAL FETE
FOR NEXT YEAR
SALEM (UP) Plans for a centen
nial next year, celebrating the con
struction of the first house on the
present site of Salem In 1840, have
been given official recognition by the
city council. Mayor W. W. Chadwlck
was empowered to call a meeting of
the heads of fraternal and civic
groups to draft a campaign for the
observance of the city's hundredth
anniversary.
- The house, occasion for the cele
bration, which was built by Jason
Lee, pioneer missionary, Is still stand
ing. Oregon' history shows that the
building was distinctly the fore-runner
of modern Salem although the
city was not Incorporated until 1860.
Parenthetically, some records show
that the first house built by white
men In the Willamette valley was
built In 1813 Just north of Salem
near the present Oregon school for
the deaf.
Jason Lee, with other Methodist
missionaries, started a mission at
Wheatland Ferry, 13 miles north of
Salem, In 1834. The site proved to
be unsatisfactory and In 1840 he
came south and built the house
which proved to be the start of the
present city of Salem. The little set
tlement was at first called Cheme-
kata.
The same year a grist mill and saw
mill were built and the town became
known as The Mills. The following
year, a manual training school for
the Indians was built on the' present
site of Willamette university and the
city took on its third name, Institute.
Later the trustees of the Methodist
church bought the school building
and grounds and established Willam
ette university.
In 1846, the records show, William
H. Wilson entered a donation land
claim for a large part of the present
site of Salem and two years later the
claim was divided Into lots. Another
two years passed before the platting
was officially filed and the -town
given its present name.
It became the capital of the state
a year later and was finally incor
porated In 1860.
