He and a woman other than his wife bought a home under fictitious names and, in the deed, were designated as husband and wife. A few months later, Jones died and, shortly there after, his "widow" sold the property and left Portland. Actually, Jones was survived by his legal spouse and three minor children living in another state. The purchaser's title to the property was defective and he lost his investment when the legal heirs later claimed the property. Had he insisted upon the pro tection of title insurance, the cost of subsequent litiga tion and the loss of potential profit on the resale would have fallen upon the title insurance company.

School Situation At Rogue River Discussion Topic Rogue River, May 22 J. L. Turnbull met with a group of Rogue River citizens and mem bers of the school board, Wed nesday evening for a round ta ble discussion on the present school situation. Turnbull explained the basic school support as being money taken from the Income taxes, coming mainly from the heavily populated industrial areas, and given to aid in support of schools in the poorer districts, thereby easing the tax burden on prop erty in those districts. It is given to the poor districts as a bonus to help them maintain better schools, but they must, he stressed, prove their good faith by maintaining certain standards in order to receive this bonus. Substandard Now He stated the grade school building is substandard, mainly because of poor lighting and over-crowding. He advised the lighting be improved and a new unit constructed to relieve crowded class rooms. If those two conditions are corrected no other improvements would be required, he added, and the building can and must be used from five to seven years longer. Three new class rooms would be sufficient at the present date, but more will be needed in the near future, he estimated, and it will be cheaper to erect them at one time under one contract. He stated the high school is not crowded and the proposed addi tion being requested by the school board is to make room for the teaching of new subjects such as art and metal work and for an automotive shop. Cost of teaching such subjects is partly covered by the Smith-Hughes federal grant. In regard to the building sites, he stated the new unit can be built on either of the proposed sites. If the new unit is built on the west side of Pine street and all of the land adjacent to the high school is purchased (includ ing the Woods property), that would give sufficient play grounds for both grade and high schools even though the enroll ment doubles its present nunrner in the next few years, but he added, when the enrollment reaches 700 it is advisable to have the schools on separate sites. In discussing the site on the east side of Pine street it was brought out that the grade school gymnasium is in good condition and this year's budget provides for new lighting in the class rooms. Converting the fur nace to oil would do away with the woodpiles and that land, with the street and the Burk property would be ample for the new unit, accordine to Turnbull, but in event population contin ues to increase and enrollment doubles the grounds would be crowded when another unit is added. He mentioned that sev enth and eighth grades could be moved into tne nigh -scnooi building then. Turnbull requested the people come to a decision on the site and show their good faith by bringing the grade school up to standard. Election June 1 Election on the school bond will be held June 1 and if it passes the site will be chosen la ter as explained in the following letter from Attorney Frank P. Farrell to Mrs. E. Reed Carter, board chairman: "As explained at the meeting of the district school board held May 9, procedure in selecting school site for the additional building of the school district is as follows: "If the specific property to be purchased is set forth in the bond election proceedings such site will be authorized to be pur chased. In lijis connection, how ever, the present bond Issue does not specify a specific site and therefor the site must be select ed by the leeal school voters of the school district at a school meeting called specifically for that purpose. "In view of the above and in event the bond issue carries then before additional lands can be purchased by the board as a school site, the same must be e- 'Pogie News' Said Unaffiliated With Veterans Groups The Jackson County Chamber of Commerce today said that a mimeographed publication en titled "Pogie News" has no con nection with any chartered vet eran organization in the city. The publication appeared on Medford streets for the first time this week. The sheet lists W. F. Fay as publisher and gives the address as the Leverette building. L. J. "Tick" Malarkey, listed as ed itor, said he had no connection with this publication, and that his name was used without his permission or authorization for this type of promotion. The "Allied Hospitalized War Veterans" was given as sponsor ing organization. Paul A. Hatton, manager of the Camp White vet eran domiciliary center, said to day he had never heard of such an organization. Don Lane, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, said that a price of $2 per column inch was being asked for advertising in the paper, which is listed at a distribution price of 10 cents.

"In event the bond issue car ries it will then be necessary for the district school board to call a school meeting, upon proper notice, for the purpose of select ing the lands to be purchased." VFW Poppies To Be Sold Locally Friday, Saturday Women of the auxiliary to the Veterans of Foreign Wars are nuiking plans for the annual sale of VFW buddy poppies on May 26 and 27. This will be the 28th year that the sale has been held. The first was in 1922. All proceeds from the sale will be used to aid disabled veterans, particularly those in hospitals, and their families, according to Mrs. O. O. DeBerry, president of the auxiliary. "It is only human that we tend to forget the tragedies of the past," Mrs. DeBerry com mented, "but as long as the hu man casualties of our wars re main with us, it is our sacred obligation to see that they do not remain in need. That is why we remember the men who can't forget, for their sacrifices were made for all of us, and those that come after us. "Let us honor the dead by helping the living, and give everyone the opportunity of wearing a VFW buddy poppy on Poppy Days, May 26 and 27." Mrs. Merrill Beneka is poppy chairman for the group and she will be assisted by many mem bers who will sell the flowers on the streets and in places of business both days. The sale is held each year on the week-end preceding Memorial day.
