Another Astoria
Home Being Licked
On Coxcomb Hill
Astoria, Ore., Apr. 22 iU.R)
Lawrence Jackson's stout home,
survivor of a jolting 300-foot
ride on the crest of the Coxcomb
hill slide, was being licked in its
fight today by a single knoll of
earth.
The house rode the sliding
hill almost miraculously to with
in 150 feet of possible rescue at
Ihe bottom, then bumped into
the mound where it will be
squeezed by its own weight and
the force ol tne sliding nni De
hind it.
Engineers said it was caught
in a nut-cracker of earth and res
cue appeared impossible.
A short way up the hill is
Jackson's wood garage, which
has followed the house down
like a faithful dog.
While the sliding portion of
Coxcomb hill continued its pace,
city officials announced they
uprp rnncerned at the other end
of Astoria where a portion of a
hill above West Bond street is
nntnntmllv dangerous. The hill
has moved only six inches in the
past winter but the city has be
gun boring operations with the
state's special machine used in
boring shafts under hills to re
lieve water pressure.
Six-inch drain tiles will be
placed in the bores, which are
expected to be only a temporary
measure to ease the pressure.
