The part Beagle pup owned by three-year-old Susan Patterson of Salinas, Calif., has been performing the feat with all fours ever since she did it quite by accident while being fed in the lap of her mis tress with a doll bottle. Irish Parliament To Elect de Valera Dublin (U.R) The Irish parliament meets today to elect 74-year-old Earn on de Valera as the nation's premier for the eighth time. The tall, thin chief of the Fianna Fail Soldiers of Destiny Party starts the greatest test of his political career when he suc ceeds outgoing Premier John A. Costello. His new government faces some of the sorest trials in the republic's 35 years of existence. They include unemployment which is now at a post-war high of 91,000, a flood of emigration and an adverse balance of trade that sees Ireland spending 14 million pounds (S39.2-million) more for imports than she re ceives for exports. Added to these is stagnation in both agriculture and business expansion because of a credit squeeze. Irish voters endorsed the Brooklyn-born leader's party in a general election March 5 after it had spent three years In oppo sition to Costello's coalition gov ernment. . Hearing on Construction of Sewer Continued by Council A public hearing on construc tion of a sanitary sewer in block 4, South Sea addition, was con tinued by the Medford city council last night when several residents of the area protested the sewer. Mayor John Snider requested a complete report on the pro posed project be prepared for the next council meeting. Objecting to the sewer project were Mark M. Kline, a repre sentative of Joe Maxfield and Mrs. Lucille James, who live on Earhart st. They said they al ready had sufficient sewage fa cilities from septic tanks and would not be benefited by the new sewer. Suggests Inspection ' Councilman Fred Robinson suggested a sanitation expert in spect the area and Councilman Paul Meyers pointed out the area is near the proposed route of the Bear Creek - Hawthorne park freeway through Medford, which could affect possible plan ning in the area. The council authorized instal lation of a water main on South Grape st. from Melrose to Stew art ave., after a public hearing. A petition signed by about 70 per cent of the property owners in the area requested the proj ect, which is the initial phase of the development' of the street, according to city officials. Bids also were called for the water main projects. The council called a public hearing April 16 on a proposal to amend the city zoning ordi nance regarding requirements to provide four square feet of park ing to each square foot of gross building area in limited com mercial (class IIIA) districts. The proposal would apply to new buildings and remodeled estab lishments. The Medford planning com mission recommended the change last week following a public hearing. Condemnation Procedure Condemnation procedure against Dr. I. D. Phipps, 923 East Main st., Medford, to secure a right-of-way easement for the southeast Medford trunk sewer i was approved by the council. Negotiations with Dr. Phipps 1 for the easement have continued for several months, City Mana- ! ger Robert Duff said. No alter- i nate route would be feasible, he added. The section of the trunk sew- er system affected extends from Barnett rd. north through the west boundary of the Rogue Valley hospital property, north through Dr. Phipps' property to serve Country Club Manor sub division and to provide a trunk system for property east of Black Oak drive to Hillcrest rd. Contracts were awarded Cra ter Lake Motors Inc., Medford, for two cab-ahead dump trucks to replace 1949 Chevrolet and 1951 Dodge dump trucks. New trucks were considered neces sary because maintenance costs were becoming high on old trucks. Duff said. Other Bids Low bid from Crater Lake Motors was $6,418. Other bids were submitted by McCormick Farm Equipment, $6,842.64; Courtesy Chevrolet, $7,291.94: Haupert Tractor company, $7, 830; Parsons Motors, $8,242; ana Olson Mack Sales. $15,796. The council denied a request from the Table Rock Sanitary district for 24 connections in that district to the Medford sewer system. Duff pointed out at a recent council meeting a matter of "council policy" was involved in the request. Present council policy is "no service outside of city." The city manager added the area proba bly never would be eligible for annexation to Medford. Extra Width Driveway A request from Myron Corco ran for an extra width driveway on his property on the east side of Riverside ave. and north of McAndrews rd. was approved. In return Corcoran has agreed to abandon one of two drive ways that now serve his prop erty on the north and provide one driveway about 45 feet in length for an off-street parking area to serve a minimum of 30 cars. The council accepted petitions from property owners on New town st. from Dakota to Stew art aves. protesting a paving project in that area and from property owners on Roberts rd. east of Springbrook rd. in the newly annexed Grandview-Ken-wood area protesting a sanitary sewer.
