SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, January 15, 1956 Duhaime To Speak On Limited Access At HRB Meeting William E. Duhaime, Medford attorney, will speak at a meet ing of' the Highway Research board in Washington, D.C. Jan. 19 on "Limiting Access to High ways." The board meeting from Jan. 16 to 20 is expected to be at tended by 1,000 to 1,500 high way experts, and will review various types of research relat ing to highways. One section will be devoted to a thorough study of the legal aspects of improving highways. Duhaime's speech will deal with legal problems involved in con struction of limited access super highways or freeways. Cost of Access Righti The cost of purchasing access rights, or avoiding them in oth er ways, 'is often prohibitive, Duhame said, and he will report to the board on the legal extent to which access may be sup pressed or controlled by state police power. An article written by Du haime on the subject of limiting access to highways was recently published in the Oregon Law Review, and it was on the basis of that he was selected to speak at the board meetings.

One of the Reds turned his tommygun on the German pa trolmen who made the arrest, but a western policeman knock it out of his hand . before he could fire. The prisoners were taken to a police station for questioning. It was the second "border incident" in less than 24 hours in Soviet-surrounded Berlin. Early yesterday, Communist police fired "warning shots" at British troops sent to retrieve a jeep wrecked on the sector boundary. The Red radio said the trigger happy Communists were only trying "to summon the duty officer."

It is located on the west side and extends south on Murphy rd. to include the proposed Rogue Valley Memorial hospital site at the corner of Barnett and Murphy rds.

The proposed boundary then follows property lines run nLAni iun south around Barneburg hill, and includes the extensive Mont Crest subdivision development and Rogue Manor Re-' tirement home. It extends north along the east side of Ellen dale dr. to a point 300 feet south of Barnett rd. The proposed boundary extends from there west to Bear creek, the center of which it follows to the present city limits. The smaller area, just north of Verde Hills, is a three and a half block area which presently is surrounded by property within the city in Siskiyou Heights extension.
