Champlin, Medford police chief. Drawing attention to national pedestrian safety month, now nearing an. end, Champlin quoted right-of-way regulations as stated in Oregon motor vehicle" laws. Law Quoted "A driver must yield the right of way to a pedestrian crossing within any marked crosswalk or within any unmarked cross walk at an intersection," ' he pointed out. If a pedestrian is on half of the roadway on which the vehicle is traveling, or is ap proaching so closely, as to be in danger, the driver is expected to top. However, the law states a pedestrian shall not leave the curb or other place of safety suddenly and move into the path of a vehicle which is so close it is impossible for a driver to stop. A pedestrian crossing, the road way at any place other than within marked or unmarked crosswalks is expected to yield the right cf way to the vehicle. A blind person, Champlin said, has unrestricted right of iyay in crossing streets but only when carrying a white cane or walk ing stick. 14 Pedestrians Hit Champlin also reminded res idents that 14 pedestrians were struefciy cars in Medford from January tnrough October. In thi 10-month 'period, three of the ictims were jaywalkers and two others were crossing against the traffic signal. Med ford's only pedestrian fatality of 1956, which occurred early in November, afsp involved a jay walker, Champlin noted.' mm -v. IS YOUR BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP SHADOWED "--BY".

Tuesday, November 27, 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN Distillery Representative Talks at Roundtable Meet Gerry Pearson, public rela-i pointed out, is the only register- tions manager of the Hood River , ed distillery in the northwest Distillers, Inc., yesterday discus sed the possibilities of culled pears as an ingredient for vodka, if a vodka processing plant should ever be erected in south ern Oregon. She spoke at a luncheon meet ing of the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce Round table at the Jackson hotel. The Hood River Distillers, she and the only vodka processing plant in the world that special izes in "pear neutral spirit." HRD uses Oregon products and labor exclusively. Miss Pear son said, and pays the state about $60,000 in taxes annually from vodka sales. In 1957, she said, the coun try will consume about 9,000, 000 gallons of vodka. Of this amount, about 35 per cent is ex pected to be consumed in Calif ornia. Discussing a survey taken in Hood River by the distillery, stated that about one of every 10- citizens there drink HRD vodka. The popularity of vodka in the west, Miss Pearson said, is typical of the rise in popular ity of the drink all over the country. One reason for the popularity of the vodka, she explained, it its "breathless after effects." The trend in this country is to wards a lighter type beverage anyway, she said. Another reason for its popular ity, she said, is that it only con tains 18 calories, less than any other alcoholic beverage. There is no Russian vodka being mark eted in this country now, she added.

This explains that company sldfean, whih is "Drink Your Way Out of Debt," shePsaid. and how they are living. I feel that I ought to just in vite myself, since they don't seem to have enough sense as to how to behave. My husband says he won't go unless invited and doesn't think I should. Mr. P. O. My wife and I were opposed to this marriage for various reasons and I am afraid that we are not very welcome in this home. Despite our early opposition, we accepted the situation when we saw that our son was deter mined, and did our best to make our daughter-in-in-law feel wel come in our home. We feel that if she makes our son happy, that is the only important thing. If we impose ourselves in their home, our son might consider us responsible for any, trouble that might arise between him and his wife. I'm afraid that our daughter-in-law just feels hostile toward us because of what hap pened in the beginning and no thing we can do will help. The Council: The conduct of this young couple is certainly unusual and the relationship with the parents seems very strained. .' The fact that the son has not even discussed the possibility of a visit from the parents may indicate that there is already dif ficulty in the marriage. If this is the case, it would not be ad visable for the mother to spring a visit on the couple or invite herself. It might be a better idea for the parents to invite the couple for another visit and for the father to open a discussion priv ately' with his son. He might simply explain that he and the boy's mother would like to see more of the young couple and that they could make a visit to the couple's home if they would be welcome. Such a discussion might bring the son to unburden his marital problem, if there is one. If there is no problem and he loves his parents, he will be forced to take up the issue with his wife. If the wife opposes a visit from his parents, a serious argument might result, but it is one that the son will have to face event ually if he does not want to cut off his- ties with his parents. ' These parents show no desire to hurt the marriage in any way and they should not feel guilty about forcing the issue a bit. It is an issue that the .son will have to meet for the sake of his own happiness and peace of mind. (Copyright 1956, General Features Corp.)
