Annexation Studied
A recommendation that a por
tion of Laurelhurst addition
which is not now within the city
be annexed was received from
the planning commission, and
the council authorized Duff to
make a report on the proposal.
The annexation would be
hrought up at the same time as
a proposed annexation in south
Medford, because an election
will be necessary.
The council awarded a con
tract to Crater Lake Motor com
pany for a pickup truck for
$1,299 on a trade-in, and award
ed a contract to Courtesy Chev
rolet for a dump truck for $2,934
on a trade-in.
Howard T. Funk, 511 May st.,
was appointed to replace the late
Joseph Jenson on Medford Fire
department.
Bidder Qualified

Kiewit Son's company for a bid
der on city public works, and an
option on power line right of
way for California Oregon Pow
er company was extended to
Sept. 1, 1955.
An ordinance concerning qual
ity of milk required by the state
department of agriculture was
adopted. The ordinance complies
with department of agriculture
standards for milk quality.

Church of Christ Scientist for a
sewer connection on . Oakwood
drive was referred to the plan
ning commission, and a request
from A. H. Hiebert for an extra
width driveway on Almond st.
was delayed to the next council,
meeting.

He said the cLty would continue
efforts to obtain options, be
cause Niantic st. is worthwhile
for the city's street program.
Take No Action

tween Court st. and Riverside
ave.

plication from M. M. Huggins to
sell Mobilgas aviation fuel at the

Congress Urged To Pass
10-Year Highway Plan

the five-year Democratic substi
tute recommended by the Sen
ate Public Works Committee.
The association represents
mayors and policy makers of 12,-
000 cities and towns in 44 states.
Mayor Allen C. Thompson,
Jackson, Miss., association presi
dent, outlined the group's views
before a House Public Works
Subcommittee. He appealed for
a non-partisan approach to the
highway problem.
Ashland Councilmen
Find Punctuation Mark.
Ashland, Ore. (U.R) A mis
placed punctuation mark in a
1948 copy of the Ashland city
charter almost stalled the ma
chinery of municipal ' govern
ment until the council found out j
where it belonged. j
Because of a printing error, '
the council could not decide
whether a tract of land was or
was not a part of the city's Lithia I
park. For-more than a month I
councilmen wrestled with the j
problem before checking the ori-!
ginal ordinance to discover the
error.
Cub Scouts

Cub Scout Pack 44 will conduct
a penny carnival at the Lone
Pine school Thursday, May 19, at
