ing of the city council held Mon
day night at the city hall, a let
ter was read from the American
La France Company, stating
that .delivery on the new 500
gallon pumper fire truck order
ed by the city might be expect
ed the latter part of July. Deliv
ery had originally been expected
in June.
Three letters were read from
the State Highway Department
One stated that minutes of the
hearing held in Gold Hill last
October 6 on the re-routing of
Highway 99 had now been ap
proved by the highway commis
sion. This was in response to
two previous letters from the
city council asking for a copy of
the minutes' of the October
hearing.
The highway department also
wrote that the resolution from
the city council, asking that
Ben Hur Lampman Park be
made a state park and enlarged
and improved, was being taken
unf"f advisement by the com
mission. Fund Plea Eyed '
The third stated that 'Gold
Hill's application for a share of
the special state street fid for
use in maintaining streets under
heavy industrial use was being
considered. The council had ap
plied for funds to fix up Fourth
avenue and Seventh street in the
vicinity of the planing mill.
In discussing requiring prop
erty owners to burn off vacant
lots to keep down the fire haz
ard, it was stated that the Vol
unteer Fire department would
stand by while lots were burned
off, if property owners would
contact Fire Chief Melford Hood
in advance.
Several councilmen and City
Superintendent George Turner
stated that dry grass in the al
leys belonging to the city con
stitute a greater fire hazard than
exists from vacant lots, and that
the council could not very well
insist that property owners get

something about the alleys. "
City To Scrap Alleys .
Turner said that he could use
the grader to scrape off the
weeds and grass, if the council
would authorize the hiring of
labor to load and haul away the
debris. The council authorized
the superintendent to "do this. '
The council passed a resolu
tion authorizing the ' Medford
branch of the U. S. National
to pay the interest due on city
bonds. A motion was carried to
hire an auditing firm to make
an audit of the city books.
It was stated that a property
owner on Sixth avenue had vio
lated the city building code by
securing a permit to build a stor
age shed and then equipping the
shed with a stove and lights and
using it as living quarters. The
report stated that, the stove pipe
was extended through a wall
without any kind of flu or chimney,-
causing a fire hazard. The
council decided to give the prop
erty owner ten days to comply
with the city code, and then to
inflict the penalties provided in
the city ordinances if the order
is not obeyed.
Youths Sentenced
In Larceny Case
Monty Louis Riddell, 19, and
an 18-year-old companion, both
from Eagle Point, were sen
tenced yesterday for petty lar
ceny in district court by Judge

the county jail, plus $55 fines
each, according to court records.
The youths attempted to steal
an air conditioning unit from the

trians accused them of taking it,
police explained.

and hair hanging ' from, the

Frankfurt, Germany (U,R)
Get out the hot dogs and
bring on the mustard. The
lowly frankfurter celebrates its
100th anniversary- this month.
The elongated, pork- filled, se
cretly - smoked product has
made this city on the Main riv
er more famous than any of its
illustrious sons, including Maier
Amschel Rothschild, who start
ed his banking business 'here,
and the poet-playwright Johann
Wolfgang Goethe.
Hans Wirth, red - faced, 300
pound owner of Frankfurt's
biggest frankfurter factory and
a student of frankfurter history,
said the German butchers guild
developed the glorious sausage
in 1852 for the growing force
of industrial workers.
The.' butcher who hit on' the
final shape was inspired by his
dog,. a dachshund.
Big Hit In Chicago
The frankfurter's big jump
to international fame came at
the 1893 Chicago world's fair,
where the imported model and
its United States imitations were
devoured by the thousands.
According to Wirth's history,
there is a - Romeo - Juliet ro
mance connected with the red

century two of the largest man
ufacturers feuded for years and
did not speak to each other.
One turned out a long, skin
ny wiener, the other a short,
fat model and each tried to drive
the other out of business.
One frankfurter maker had

ter. They met and fell in love.
After the wedding the two pa
pas got together and in celebra
tion of the occasion frankfurters
ever since have been made in
pairs. . -
It Should Snap
"A" good frankfurter should
snap when you .bit it," Wirth
said. "Our best frankfurter
skins used to come from Rus
sian and Chinese lambs. We
can't get them now but we are
getting some from Persia."
Suddenly turning sad Wirth
deplored the pale, sometimes
wrinkled U. S. wiener.
"It can't even be compared,"
he said, shaking his head. "No
flavor, no texture, no' snap."
Wirth exports frankfurters to
Africa, South America, Austral
ia, Portugal and the United
States.
Formula Kept Secret
, Frankfurter manufacturers
keep their formula a secret. In
addition to the Persian casings,
Wirth would admit only that
he uses nothing but finely
ground pork, from electrically
killed pigs and spices prepared
by a trusted cook.
"The real secret is the smok-

the opening of the play season
August 1, according to Bill
Dawkins, executive secretary -of
the assocaition.
Dawkins pointed out that pur
chase of a ' season's membership
allows the play-goer to make a
substantial saving on each tick
et for the various plays. In ad
dition this year, the association
is giving with each membership,
two free tickets for the concert

to tell what wood he used or
allow a reporter into the smoke
room.
Asked if there was any chance
that his competitors or he might
slip in some horse meat to in
crease the profits, Wirth drew
up to his full 300 pounds.
