SIXTEEN MEDFOHD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, Mtj 28, I9S7 News About Books From the Library Patrons of the Multnomah County library (Portland Public library) are currently being given leaflets explaining the li brary's remodeling and reorgani zation, now nearing completion. To help them find their way to new departments and services an outline and plans are included in the leaflet. At the same time readers are asked for the:r help on the tre- Moore; Wizards' Country, Rooke; The Loving Eye, Sansom; Strang ers in the Universe, Simak; The Game and the Ground, Vansit tart; Gunilla, Viksten.

Salesman Can Increase His Sales, "More than 1.000 books were carried away from the library absent-mindedly in 1955, or were stolen. This meant that we could buy 1,000 fewer new books for your pleasure and profit from our book funds. We are seeking the cooperation of all our read ers in this problem. The few who wilfully take from their fellow readers can be frustrated if all other readers make a practice of stopping at the charge out desk to show all books and the contents of brief cases and bags as they go out." "Many libraries have had to install turnstiles or employ uni formed guards at the doors. The cooperation of all our readers I will enable us to avoid such j measures and their costs," the leaflet goes on to explain. . The request made by the Med- j ford Public library, that note-1 books and textbooks all books ; not belonging to the library's col lection be placed on checking shelves at the door as a reader 1 enters, is made with the same purpose and in the same spirit as this plea of the Portland Li- brary association. j Our situation differs in that we cannot employ enough staff so that there will always be someone waiting at the desk to check your books. We wish to spend our time and effort, not in guarding exits, but in assisting you. We want to spend our book funds, not in replacing stolen volumes, but in building up a better collection of new books for you.

COURT RULING FUTILE Tampa, Fla. HP! A criminal Court jury found Dan Williams guilty of stealing two glass doors but decided they were worth less than the 150.11 the owner claimed. Theft of $50 or more is grand larceny so the jury de cided the doors were worth 49.99, reducing the charge to petty larceny. However, the judge delayed sentence because Williams faces trial on another larceny charge. This one involv ing $85. Young Scooter Rider Cited After Accident David Lynn Johnson, 13, of 3267 Delta Waters rd., Medford, was cited for having no opera tors license Friday after the mo tor scooter he was operating col lided with a pick-up truck on Buckshot rd., according to state police. Mrs. Gay Hyacinth Pestka, 2407 Buckshot rd., Medford, was cited for permitting an un authorized person to operate a motor vehicle in connection with the accident. According to police, the John son boy and his passenger, Don ald Ralph Pestka, 14, rode out of a driveway at the Pestka resi dence and into the path of the pick-up truck, which was oper ated by Mrs. Bernice Garrett, 33, Foothills rd., Medford. The Johnson boy reportedly suffered a broken foot in the ac cident and was taken to a local doctor's office by a neighbor. There were no other injuries. The scooter was reported exten sively damaged and the pick-up truck received minor damage. The accident occurred at 2 p.m. There are about 4,500 tree farms in 36 states, including about 29 million acres of land, according to the Southern Pine association headquarters.
