Office Service Opens Branch to Serve 3 Counties Dana and Hazel Platz, who op erate Service Unlimited, an em ployment agency here, have been appointed area managers for Russell Kelly Office service, a national organization which furnishes temporary office help. Miss Dana Platz said this is the first time the office service has opened a branch in this pop ulation size area. The area in cludes Josephine, Jackson and Klamath counties. The Kelly service maintains a (roup of experienced business women who are "rented" to of fices for temporary periods of time ranging from a day to a month or more. The business firm desiring temporary help re quests a girl of certain ability and pays the service for provid ing temporary help. At the completion of the tem porary assignment, the girl sub mits to the business firm a time slip indicating the number of hours worked. When approved, the time is forwarded to the Kelly service, which pays the girl and bills the business firm, Miss Platz said. "Kelly Girls" are tested prior to an assignment, and are bond ed, insured and guaranteed, she said. If the business firm finds the girl did not do the job for which she was recommended, the firm does not pay the serv ice for the temporary help, Miss Platz said. Among' positions for which Kelly girls are experienced are stenographers, typists, typist-statistical, comptometer or Bur roughs operators, clerks, recep tionists, billers, switchboard op erators, and machine or hand bookkeepers. The Kelly service here will be located at 204 Franklin building. Miss Platz said.

Max Sig communications was granted a lease by the city at the Medford airport. Max-Sig said it intended to increase the present facilities to provide ra dio and electronic repair service. The council adopted an ordi nance assessing property owners for paving on North Keene Way from Jackson st. to Oregon ave. Cost of the project was $7.08 and $3.24 per lineal foot. The S5.24 portion of the assessment was charged to Hedrick Junior High school. City Manager Robert Duff was authorized to negotiate an agreement with the Nye and Naumes Packing company, Med ford, for construction of a storm sewer on South Fir st. from Monroe st. to Melrose ave. near the company's plant. Duff said the storm sewer is scheduled for construction un der the capital improvement pro gram in 1958. He added that be cause a warehouse is subject to flooding from the existing storm drainage system, the company desires to expedite construction to prevent damage of fruit stored in the cold storage por tion of the plant. The company has offered to finance materials for the sewer with the stipulation that Nye and Naumes is reimbursed in 1958. Duff said material would cost about $1,400. Total cost of the project 'is estimated at S3.335. The council directed City At torney E. R. Bashaw to continue revision of the closing out sale ordinance. Bashaw said the mu nicipal court judge declared the ordinance unconstitutional in its delegation of legislative power during a recent court case. The city attorney added the revised ordinance would meet the objection of unconstitution ality.. The council approved requests for loading zones to Courtesy Chevrolet, 227 East Ninth st., Medford, and to the California Oregon Power company, 216 West Main st., Medford. Courtesy Chevrolet requested a loading zone on east Ninth st.. adjacent to an alley. The load ing zone space will be used both for a loading zone and a drive way entrance to their display room. Copco requested a loading zone space on South Fir st. near a transformer building. Iron, Steel Company Forms at Camp White Formation of the White City Iron & Steel Co. was completed recently. It was organized by a group of Medford and Ashland men to recover and process us able metal from scrap. Dave Trudeau, formerly em ployed by Laughlin Steel com pany, is general manager of the firm, which has property in the White City industrial area for its operations. The company ob tains scrap, both old automobiles and from other sources, and sorts it out, segregating the more valuable metals from the junk type scrap. These are then sold separately. If sufficient business is de veloped, it is tentatively planned to establish a foundry here, to carry the sorting and scrap re covery a step further. Members of the firm reports that supplies of scrap are sufficient to permit continuous operation on a fairly CONSTIPATED? new laxative discovery un-locks bowel blocks without gag, bloat or gripe Constipation is caused by what doctors call a "thrifty" colon. A "thrifty" colon is one that, instead of retaining moisture as it should, does the opposite: robs the colon of so much moisture that its con tents become dehydrated, so dry that they block the bowel; so shrunken that they fail to excite or stimulate the urge to purge that propels and ex pels waste from your body. TO REGAIN NORMAL RECU LARITY two things are neces sary. First, the dry, shrunken contents of your colon which now block your bowel must be re-moistened. Second, bulk must be brought to your colon to S-T-R-E-T-C-H STIMULATE it and so, excite its muscles to action; to a normal urge to purge.

January 18, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEH Former Death Row Inmate Tentatively Wins $8,000 on TV New York-'U.R) John Resko, sentenced to death for murder, tentatively won $8,000 Tuesday night on CBS's "$64,000 Ques tion." Resko, 45, of the Bronx, was sentenced to die in Sing Sing death house when he was 19 for a murder that occurred during a robbery. He spent two years there awaiting execution. After the sentence was commuted to life, he spent 19 years in Dannemora, N. Y., prison before he was paroled in 1949. During the years there he educated himself on law and cultural subjects. Resko, who is an artist and also the author of a book en titled "Reprieve," chose an tiques for his category and cor rectly answered seven ques tions. For his $8,000 question he was asked to identify four man ufacturers of ceramics from re productions of their hallmarks. The first three he successfully identified as Worcester, Delft and Capo di Monte. The fourth, which he identi fied as Limoges, was described as Sevres on the answer card. Since some doubt arises as to whether or not Limoges is china ware made in Sevres, Resko was ruled correct, pending further confirmation. He will return to the program next Tuesday to try for the $16, 000, .or possibly to receive a 1957 Cadillac convertible, if Tuesday night's answer is ruled definitelv incorrect. 2 Modern Wreckers No- distinct too far bo job too Urr When In m chuical tria ble or seed ftnc a tow, CU Medford 2-6119 or 2-4891 2 HOUR SERVICE ; JACK SIDES' Rogue Service Garage Stb and Front Streets into y "ill r I SAVE up to 50!
