(Brainerd's Photo) Cases Being Appealed To Oregon High Court Show Rise Since 1950 Salem Cases appealed to the Oregon supreme court from the lower courts of the state have increased each year since 1930, resulting in a "serious conges tion" of the court docket and long delay in hearing and de ciding cases. Justice William M. McAllister told the Chamber of Commerce forum here. McAllister, who was appoint ed to the court last August fol lowing the death of Justice Earl Latourette, said 257 cases were appealed to the court in 1955 compared to 151 in 1950. He said there is some indication that the number Vlias reached a plateau and is leveling off at about 250 eases per year." "It is apparent that at this rate the backlog of unsettled cases is going to grow at a prodi gious rate," he stated. "It is equally apparent that the situa tion demands immediate and ef fective remedial actions." Ms Single Remedy ' McAllister expressed the be lief that there is no single rem edy which will effectively solve the problem", and called for the "application of a number of changes each of which will Courl Records pol len eoi'RT Zen L.

He recommended short memo randum opinions in relatively simple cases, use of departments consisting of three judges with authority to decide cases by a decision of the majority and the appointment of a permanent chief justice who had adminis trative ability. , The court uses departments of three judges at the present time but the chief justice must sit on all cases and handle the administrative work of the court as well. As a result, he said, the departmental system does not speed the work of the court. McAllister said he would "vig orously oppose" any attempt to suspend or eliminate the right of oral arguments as a means of expediting the court's work, asserting that "oral arguments are of great value to the court in most cases." He did suggest, however, that a more generous use of the prac tice whereby oral arguments are suspended by stipulation of both parties would help the problem.

McKinstry, Medford dty engineer, spoke to a group of students interested in engineer ing on "Engineering as a Car eer" at Medford High school this week. In explaining the role of an engineer, McKinstry said "an engineer adapts natural forces found in nature to more useful forms, such as highways, bridges, dams and jet airplanes." Basic subjects for prospective engineers, according to McKin stry, are science and mathema tics. If students do not like math ematics they should not plan on an engineering vocation, he said. They also must have a desire to be an engineer, he added. McKin stry said the requirements for entrance in many institutions are English, social studies, algebra, geometry, physics and addition al sciences. When students decide in which school to enroll, McKinstry rec ommended they write the dean of engineering and obtain a list of the requirements needed for entrance. He said 50 per cent of those who enter the engineering curriculum do not graduate. He added that all schools of higher education are being tight ened up due to the fact that too many students wish, to obtain a college education. The fields of engineering are civil, mechanical, electrical, ag ricultural, chemical, mining, metallurgical and aeronautical. The dispersement of men in the field is 34 per cent executives, 20 per cent planning and design ing, four per cent sales-engin eers, five per cent consulting en gineers, 18 per cent research and development, three per cent teaching, seven per cent con struction. and seven per cent manufacturing production.

OPEN SUNDAYS Referring to reimbursement, he said technicians and junior engineers receive $350 to $400 per month, while those who have completed their formal training start at a minimum of S400. He added that students in the upper third of their class have the pick of the better jobs. McKinstry said that students at Medford are fortunate because of the courses in mathematics and sciences, which many schools do not offer. McKinstry spoke at the sec ond in a series of vocational conferences featured as a part of the career program at the high school. Construction of New Dam at Squaw Lake Is Under Way Construction has recently started on replacing Squaw Lake dam in the upper Apple gate area with a new dam, ac cording to Clem Ault, local soil conservationist for the Rogue Soil Conservation district. The new dam is being con stricted by the Squaw Creek Improvement district. Members of the district are Jack O'Brien, A. F. Collings, L. E. Bigelow and Burt Harr, all water users of the lake. Ault said concrete pouring for the conduit and excavating Sunday, October 28, 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREH for the spillway is now in pro cess. If the weather does not be come too inclement, according to Ault, earth fills should begin in about two weeks. Same Water Storage The new dam will provide for the same water storage as the previous structure, he added. Purpose of replacing the old dam, Ault said, is because it was considered unsafe and to insure a dependable water supply for users in the district and to im prove lake recreational facili ties. The new structure is being paid for by the water users, ac cording to Ault, and should be completed sometime this fall. Plans for the new dam, he said, were developed by soil conservation service engineers.
