At Table Rock rd. the boundary extends eastward to Biddle rd., then south along the present city boundary in the Kenwood area before going west to Crater. Lake highway and Riverside ave. Residences in the Midway rd.-Table Rock rd. area were eliminated from the proposed an nexation after residents expressed a desire not to be annexed.

Berrydale Residents Will Vote May 22 on Annexation Proposal The accompanying map shows thf area in which residents will vote May 22 on an annexation proposal. The proposal was submitted to residents by the city council after, residents, through the Berrydale Sanitation committee, asked to be annexed to solve what the committee termed as a "dangerous sanitation prob lem" in the area. A larger annexation proposal for the area was defeated in. last November's election, but since that time, proposed boundaries have been revised. The present area is much smaller than the previous area, the committee pointed out. Feasible Way The committee, after several public meetings in the area with city, county, and health de partment officials, concluded the only feasible way to solve the sanitation problem was through annexation. Nick Gier, chairman of the committee, said a preliminary engineering survey proposes to serve the area shown on the ac companying map within the dashed lines. Laterals would serve all resi dences and businesses in the Lynn, Hazel, Elm, Birch and Ash sts. area and connect with the Bessonette sewer, a private line, already serving the Big Y, the Richfield Truck slop, and some private residences along Virginia ave. This line, according to Gier, will be used to serve the bal ance of residences and business in the Big Y area, Virginia ave., Pepper st., Crews rd , and a part of Table Rock rd. It parallels the Medford corporation rail road right of way to Biddle rd where it connects with the Camp White trunk sewer sys tem, according to preliminary engineering. Residences on Berrydale, Howard, and DeBar aves., Ten nessee dr., Table Rock rd., Mer riman rd. anfl Mace rd. between Howard ave. and Merriman rd. will be served with laterals tak ing advantage of natural flow and grade toward Midway and Table Rock rds., preliminary surveys indicated. Along Highway 99 Installations along Highway 99, residences on Elks and De- Hauge sts., Connell, Elliott and Deuel aves. and Mace rd. from Howard ave. to Highway 99 also will be served with laterals taking advantage of natural flow where possible. A pumping station north of Mace rd. be tween Elliott and Connell aves. is tentatively- planned to handle sewage which can not naturally flow toward Table Rock rd., Gier said preliminary surveys showed. Another pumping station will be along Bear creek to pump the entire collection through a pressure line into the Camp White Trunk sewer system. Gier said the "island" area east of Riverside ave., north of McAndrews rd. and west of the Kenwood-Grandview boundary petitioned to be excluded from any annexation proposal for Berrydale. The majority of resi dences in the area already have city sewer service and they do not desire annexation at this time, he said. Installations and residences to the city system, or laterals constructed to serve ad jacent areas already within the city limits, Gier said Sqmre Nappy Com pott t Cover J-inch Sqtnrc Bowt Gifts of Milk Glass FOR MOTHERS' DAY AUTHENTIC MILK GLASS What could be more perfect for giving or for your own home than lovely Fostoria Milk Glass!

(U.R) The Uni versity of Texas removed a Negro girl from the lead in a student opera opposite a white male student and replaced her with a white girl because of pro tests by a pro-segregation legis lator. The legislator. Rep. Joe Chap man, Sulphur Springs, Tex., is co-author with State Rep. Jerry Sadler of Percilla, Tex., of eight pro-segreagation bills now before the Legislature. Called President Chapman called University President Logan Wilson several weeks ago when he learned a Negro student, Barbara Smith, 19, Pittsburgh, Tex., had the lead opposite a white- male student in the opera "Dido and Aneas." The opera is scheduled this week end. Chapman told newsmen Tues day that a small group of "starry-eyed, befuddled liberals" were to blame for the incident. , A university spokesman said the administration policy is "no comment because the situation was resolved several weeks ago." Chapman denied a report that he had threatened the univer- Interview Series Receives Mention Portland The 13-week series of interviews tape-recorded in Russia by an1 executive of J.' Henry Helser and Company, in vestment managers, has been awarded an honorable mention in Ohio State University's .21st American exhibition of educa tional radio and television pro grams. The award was given in the public affairs category for "lo cal organizations and stations less the 5 kw." The series was broadcast throughout Oregon last fall and over radio station KMED in Medford. Title of the series was "Rus sa Today." Helser's director of public affairs, Ted Hallock, in terviewed individual Russians during his 23-day tour of the USSR in July and August. sity's appropriations if the girl wasn't removed from the cast. "I talked with Dr. Wilson, strictly on the theory of trying to protect the university from ad verse publicity, and with the idea in mind that if a Negro did star in the opera where the script called for a white girl there probably would be person al privilege speeches on the floor of the House," Chapman said. He said out of 17,000 univer sity students, he thought 16,950 were "good, solid, loyal Ameri can citizens" and feel about the incident as he does. Promottrs of Agitation "There are about 50 starry eyed, befuddled liberals that are promoting agitation and follow ing the Communist party line by creating as much confusion and disturbance as possible," Chap man said. Chapman said his call to Wil son came after a protest by Sad ler at the weekly meeting of the East Texas legislative delegation. Chapman said "The Negro girl deserves a lot of credit herself because she has never com plained. . .it's certainly not her fault. She stepped out grace fully, I understand." Big Appetite Said Costing Man Votes Augusta, Maine (U.R) State Rep. Albert E. Cote of Lewiston, the heaviest politician in the state of Maine, thinks a state publicity buildup he re ceived is costing him votes. Cote, 358 pounds, had his pic ture taken with a mound of chicken carcasses to "help the Maine chicken business." A few weeks later he obliged the state Department of Industry and Commerce by posing with a platter containing four' dozeT eggs. This was billed as Cote's average breakfast, he said. "I've got to soft pedal this big eating business," Cote said Tues day night. It's costing me votes back in Lewiston all they think I do here is eat!"
