NEW ANNEXATION PROPOSAL A new and smaller annexa
tion proposal in the Berrydale area was proposed last week, after
the defeat at the Tuesday election of a large area. The new pro
posal is the same as ihe one originally made to the city planning
commission, which extended the boundaries to the larger area.
The map above shows roughly the proposed boundary (dotted line)
superimposed on a map which originally showed the boundary of
the larger area. Much of the area west of Bidclle rd. has been
eliminated from the proposal, as has much of the section west
of Howard and north of Mace rd. The eastern boundary at the
snutheiTi tio includes parts of Crater Lake Highway and the
Pacific Highway south of the Big Y. junction. The renewed pro
posal u tit be presented again to the planning commission Tuesday.

$97,925 Remains
In Emergency Fund
Salem (U.R) A total of
S97.925 remained in the state
emergency fund Saturday after
the State Emergency Board con
cluded what was thought to be
its last meeting.
In about two months the 1957
legislature will be in session to
provide funds for any emer
gency that might arise. The
board started with $700,000.
Under the law contracts for
all construction projects must
be approved by the board, but
during the legislative session
no such boa i d will be in exis
tence. Therefore, should the state
board of control or the board
of higher education desire to
get a construction project un
der contract in early spring, the
only means available would be
the introduction of a bill . in
the legislature authorizing and
approving such a contract.
Before the present law, the
joint ways and means commit
tee was empowered to act in
place of the emergency board.
Friday afternoon 'the emer
gency board authorized the
board of control to proceed with
the construction of an admin
istration building at the Ore
gon blind school in Salem, pro
vided the bids, to be opened
early next spring, do not ex
ceed the legislative appropria
tion of $403,000.
No emergency funds were au
thorized for the dormitory, but
the school was permitted to use
$32,000 of capital outlay funds
for the project.

St. Helens road about a block
from her home north of the

rival at Good Samaritan hospi
tal here.

who witnessed the accident, and
her father. Cecil Miller who ar
rived at the scene a few min
utes later, were taken to Good
Samaritan hospital for treat
ment of extreme shock.

turning from classes at Portland
State and was starting across
St. Helens road to walk the
block to her home. Emerson,

miles an hour, told the deputies
he saw only a blur of motion in
the darkness behind the bus
headlights. He said he swerved
sharply, but was unable to miss
the girl.

progress throughout Oregon and
the state canvass should get un
der way early next week.

Smith May Become
State Senator Again
Salem (U.R) Is it back to
the Senate for Gov. Elmo Smith?
Smith was president of the
Senate in 1955 and as such he
became governor upon the death
of Gov. Paul Patterson.
In Tuesday's election, Dem
ocrat Robert B. Holmes, Astor
ia radio station executive, was
chosen as governor, defeating
Republican Smith.
A petition asking the Marion
County Republican Central com
mittee to recommend Elmo
Smith to the state Senate was
placed in circulation in Salem
Friday.
Smith would succeed Mark
Hatfield, Marion county sena
tor who was elected secretary
of state in Tuesday's balloting.
Hatfield is a Republican.
The petition to put Smith
back in the Senate was being
circulated by Mr. and Mrs. Van
de Velde. The appointment will
be made by the Marion County
Court and the Republican Cen
tral Committee was expected
to make a recommendation.
Smith is publisher of a news
paper in John Day and has an
interest in a Madras newspap
er. But he became a resident
of Salem after he was sworn in
as governor, and hence could
conceivably be named to the
Marion county senatorial scat
upon Hatfield's resignation,
which is expected oon so that
he can take over as secretary of
state the first of the year.
