A fugitive from justice, Jack Jones came to Hortlane
from an Eastern state. 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.

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.
