    rOURTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Wednesday. February 16, 1955
Repp
By
rt on Annexation
Council at March 1
The Medford city council last
night ordered a report be made
at the March 1. council meeting
on the proposed, annexation to
the city of the Wilson tract,
south of Stewart ave. near Ham
ilton 8t. ,
.About 42 houses are planned
there, Slaven Brothers Construc
tion company, Eugene, will
build them, and paved streets,
sewers and water mains are
planned.
Ask Commitment
The firm asked the council
for a commitment on ; annexa
tion before it begins street and
main construction. It is the coun
cil's .policy that such improve
ments be made before annex
ation. The council is unable to
make a ' commitment , without
holding a public hearing, the
company was told.
In other . business, the coun
cil extended the lease for the
temporary eastside fire station,
at 147 South Keen Way dr. for
another year. Rental is $75 a
month. Ned R. Liebman, a for
mer resident, owns the property.
A public hearing was set for
the next regular meeting on
paving of East Jackson st. from
Lindley ave. to Berkeley Way.
A total of 60.3 per cent of the
property owners involved have
petitioned for the improvement.
Adopts Petition Rule
The council also adopted a
rule limiting submission of pav
ing petitions for work to be done
In the summer of the same year.
April 1 was set as the deadline.
The action was taken because it
takes about 60 days to process
the petitions and make engineer
ing studies before letting the
contracts, usually about June 1.
City Manager Robert Duff re
ported that bids have been ad
vertised for the sale of the for
mer eastside fire station site at
Ruhl Way and Valley View dr.
They will be opened on Feb. 28.
The council approved con
struction of a well at the Camp
White sewage plant for domes
tic water supply and for opera
tion of the plant. The well will
cost about $500. The alternative
was reconstructing 10,000 feet
of four-inch main from White
City at a cost of $25,000. The
main, built cn a temporary basis,
is not satisfactory, he added.
The council will consider at
its next meeting a petition by
George Goodman to put in curbs
and gutters on Ninth st., west
from Central ave. to the alley,

Brings Object
Youth's Confession
ion
Hillsboro. Ore. (U.R) De
fense Attorney Arvin Goodman
voiced strong objections yester
day to an alleged confession ob
tained from 17-year-old Jerry
Dodele who is on trial here for
the murder of Peter Ribbers, 65,
last Nov. 11.
Goodman claimed that the al
leged confession was obtained
after the youth had been kept
awake and that it was not signed
freely or-voluntarily but "as a
result of physical and mental co
ercion." - - :
District Attorney . J ames K,
Gardner said the state would be
the first to refuse use of the con
fession if it had not been given
voluntarily. He insisted the boy
was treated fairly but had to be
questioned to get out the facts. "
The jury was sent from the
room during the arguments.
Judge Arlie G. Walker was to
rule on admission of the alleged
confession today.
Earlier yesterday, Recardo
Marques, railroad employee, tes
tified he loaned the boy a . .22
rifle and five shells on Nov. 11
and that when he unloaded the
gun the nexV morning after it
was returned there were only
four shells. v -
House To Vote
On Pay Increase
Washington (U.R) House
members faced up to a tough
decision todays whether to
vote themselves a $10,000 an
nual pay raise.
Democratic, leaders sponsor
ing the boost to $25,000 a year
said congressional opposition
came from "timid souls, mostly
vocal." They predicted the bill
will be approved overwhelming
ly. .: -:V- ;-..;V; "
But there were late. reports
that some members, especially
those from r rural areas where
the present $15,000 pay looks
like big money, were getting
cold feet.
Chairman. Emanuel .Cellar (D-
N.Y.), of the House Judiciary
committee which handled the
bill, doubted if there would be
enough of them to make any dif
ference. He felt there would be
no more than 150 members
against the bill on the final roll
call.
