TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, July 27, 1952 Location of Capitol Buildings Promises to Make Beautiful Group Salem (U.PJ Oregon which has one of the most beautiful capitols in the nation promises to have the most beautiful group of state buildings in the country through action of the Capitol Planning Commission. The -commission, headed by Robert W. Sawyer, Bend pub lisher, has recommended at a meeting here that when the new Supreme Court building is erect ed, it face the Capitol building itself, rather than to be shunted off to the side like a step-brother. Two-Fold Objective The objective is two-fold. The Supreme Court building will be smaller than the office buildings which are on the flanks of the Capitol and so would be off balance if placed at the side as once planned. By putting it op posite the Capitol it shows the equality of justice with that of the executive and legislative branches of government, both of which are housed in the Capitol. The new plan, designed to Orchard Tour, Field Day, Slated Friday A RoEue River valley orch ard tour and field day will be held on Friday, August 1, under the ausoices of the Jackson County Fruit Growers league and on the Oregon State Horti cultural society, it was announc fti Saturday. The Oregon State College Extension service and the Meet ford Experiment station are co- nnpratine to suddIy recent ma terial, information and speakers on the newer developments in horticulture. The tour will de part from in front of the Jack son county court house at 9 a.m. Transportation will be fur nished. Ta Serve Lunch A rjicnic lunch will be served at TouVelle park at 1 p.m. The Fruit Growers league, as nost has extended an invitation to all those interested in any way. The .morning tour will in clude, in part, an examination of Pear Psylla on an uncontrol- Eagle Point Scouts Start Scrap Drive Eagle Point Newly-organized Boy Scout Troop 48 at Eagle Point is beginning an August scrap drive with more than the usual earnestness. The special incentive is that if they surpass the $300 goal from the sale of the scrap metal they will receive a free swim ming .outing paid for by Mayor Fred " M. Bruegger, who also stated yesterday that he would submit to being thrown in the water with his clothes on if the scouts reach the goal. The scrap drive receipts will be used to move the old Boy Scout building to a newly-purchased lot at the south end of the city park. The old building is presently located behind Brown's store and the money is needed for a foundation and adjustment of the building to the new site. The mayor added. that Jake Olson and Jerry Bonebrake, scoutmasters of the troop, have indicated that they will also join with the .mayor if the goal is reached by performing some type of stunt- to be announced later. A fenced-in area next to the city hall has been erected and any persons with scrap to do nate can throw their contribu tions inside the fance. Troop members will go out into the rural areas adjacent to the town in the near future to check on donations from the residents. At that time they will arrange pick up dates from the various loca tions. Mayor Bruegger said he will ask council permission at the next meeting for a donation by the city to the scouts of the scrap located in the old city dump. Any amount of scrap will be picked up by the scouts, the mayor concluded, and they will be equipped for large as well as small pickups: Don't bargain with your HEARING- A hearing aid chosen lot price proves expensive if guesswork-fitting and unsat isfactory results force yon to buy a better one' later on.

Other items have to do with summer grafting, new pear varieties and the use of 245TP on Anjous. Authorities Due Henry Hartman, head of the horticulture department at the Oregon State college, is coming to the valley for the field day and will discuss "picking ma turity," with particular regard for its effect on storage life. C. O. Rawlings, secretary of the State Horticulture society and extension horticulturist for OSC, will also be on hand with other authorities from our State col lege. An equipment display will be set up at TouVelle park. This will present new developments in this field which are of parti cular interest and value to tree fruit farmers. Floyd Baker, Medford, is the chairman in charge of the field day. Washington Man Dies in Accident Hermiston (U.R) F. G. Hag er, 55, Battle Ground, Wash, was killed Friday night when his motor scooter collided with an automobile driven by Neil B. Kay, Spokane, Wash., on U.S. Highway 730 about one mile east of McNary, Ore. Hager was taken to St. An thony's hospital at Pendleton where he was pronounced dead on arrival. About 20 minutes earlier, Ha ger was involved in another ac cident on the same highway, po lice said. K. K. Manchester, Portland, said he was traveling behind another car when the vehicle suddenly swerved to avoid hitting Hager who was approaching on his scooter. Man chester turned his car, which was pulling a boat trailer, into a ditch to avoid colliding with the car in front of him. Police said Hager was driving his scooter without lights. eive Oreeon the most striking Capitol group of buildings in this country, was strongly recom mended by Francis Keally, New York architect who designed the Capitol building. The simplicity of design of the functional build ings the state library, public service building and highway building fits in well with the grandeur of the Capitol itself. Through a wisdom of choice on part of state officials and the commission, the exteriors of all the buildings are marble, en hancing the grandeur of the group. Other Buildings in Keeping In keeping with this concept are the Post Office building, west of the Capitol group and the new Marion county courthouse which will rise just west of the Post Office building and will also have a marble exterior. The Capitol Planning Commis sion made two other decisions which are expected to be adopted bv the State Board of Control. The commission followed the recommendation of Keally for niacins? two new statues the state will eet of John McLoughlin, the Hudson's Bay factor who gov erned the Oregon Territory be fore we became a state, and Ja son Lee. the Methodist Mission ary who founded Willamette University. They will be placed on the Statehouse east grounds 50 or so feet west of the statue of the Circuit Rider. The Circuit Rider himself a- creation of noted E. Phimister Proctor will be turned around so that visitors to the Capitol, 90 per cent of whom visit the Capitol first and then look east over the State house grounds, will see the Cir- suit Rider face-to-face, rather than gaze upon his horse's tail as they do at present. Lee on North Side The statue of Lee will be to the north side of the walk lead ing from the Capitol east to the Sunreme Court building. That way he will face the Willamette University he founded. The statue of McLoughlin will face north toward Portland and Vancouver, Wash., where he governed for many years. Oregons replica of the Liberty Bell will be placed on the site of the old gun west of the Capi tol where the Statehouse grounds merge with Salem's Willson park. The old gun was melted down for scrap during World War II. The base is good. And at suggestion of Keally it will be used as base for the Liberty Bell. Location Appropriate It is appropriate, Capitol Plan ning Commission members agreed, that the Liberty Bell be placed there. It is west of the Capitol west steps where rallies such as those for Defense Bond sales and band concerts are held - a rallying nlace where everyone will see the "symbol of our freedom."
