TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Ordinances Amended To Permit Signs for New Medical Clinics The city council adopted amendments to the city sign and zoning ordinances Thursday nflht which will permit medical clinics to erect the same type sign" permitted apartment houses. It was the second time the amendments were considered for adoption in the last two meetings. Mayor John Snider re turned the first unsigned be cause of an impractical section. The first amendments provid ed for signs mounted on the side of buildings but must not ex tend beyond the set-back line. A change in the amendments were necessary because several build ings extend directly to the set back line. Chang Amendments The council changed the amendments to permit an 18 inch extension of signs mounted or erected parallel to a clinic. The 18-inch distance was set be cause of the need for room of electrical wiring, tubing, "chan nels," transformers and facing material, according to the coun cil. The council also changed the amendments to forbid any illu mination to show from the side of the sign. A new landing fee schedule for United Air lines was adopted by the council. The new sched ule, which has been in effect since June 15,xis eight cents per thousand pounds for the first 3,000,000 pounds, seven cents per thousand for the second 3,000,000 pounds and six cents ' "SOMETIMES ONE PAYS MOST FOR THE THINGS ONE GETS FOR NOTHING" at a '(Author's Name Below) The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker, all are eager to give you free medi cal advice. Grandma, God bless her, knows plenty of old fashioned remedies that she used to treat any sickness. Unfortunately, although some are helpful, most home treatments temporarily mask troubles that only the skilled diagnosis of a physician can uncover. Painful symptoms may be relieved, only to re occur later when a cure Is more difficult. You actually save money and sickness time when you depend on your physician and the specific medicines he prescribes.

The council also approved a United Air lines rental fee of $55 per month for a recently constructed baggage ramp. The $1,800 cost of construction will be assumed by the city. Lease Transferred The Avis Rent A Car lease at the airport was transferred from Mr. and Mrs. James H. Pree to Fred Wilcox. Pree sold his busi ness recently because of ill health. The council also renewed a lease for about six acres of city owned land near the sewage dis posal plant on Biddle rd. to G. B. Bowman. The rental fee is S30 per year for the land which is for agricultural use. A bus loading zone for the Ev ergreen Bus company was au thorized. The zone will be two spaces long on Front st. between Seventh and Eighth sts. A load ing zone was necessary because the company no longer leases loading area facilities at the Trailways depot, according to the council. A lease for office space for the city civil defense and disaster director was approved. The of fice will be in the American Red Cross building on Hawthorne st. The city will pay water, electric and telephone bills and the esti mated S500 for partitioning and installation of lighting. Water Main Funds Creation of the Crater Lake ave. and Black Oak dr. water main funds were approved. Plans and specifications were adopted for paving East Jackson st. from Bear creek to Genessee st. The council agreed to estab lish a width of 34 feet for Nian tic st. if a petition for improve ment is submitted. The 34-foot width is.two feet less than stand ard but a 36-foot street would involve moving several build ings, City Manager Robert Duff noted. The council accepted three paving projects. They are Bel mont st. to Stewart ave. on New town st. Hillcrest to Scheffel sts. on Lyman ave. and Jackson to Saling ave. on Marie st. Assessments were approved for four street improvement projects. They are paving Rose ave. from Pennsylvania ave. to Fourth sts., 12th st. south 150, South Grape st. from Melrose ave. to Stewart ave. and New town st. from Belmont st. to Stewart ave.

" Nature is doing her usual fall beautifying, changing the color ing of the leaves, so that each variety has a different blend, which makes an over all picture, one of the most beautiful many think, of any season of the year. The sunny afternoons have dried the ground here so that it can be worked and some of our farm ers are taking advantage of it. The Abe Halfhill domain in the west end of the district, plowing and seeding fall grain is being pushed along at a fast clip. A card from Mrs. Arthur Doty at Carson City, Nev., states that owing to the heavily loaded trail er they were two days on the road, getting to their destination at 8 p.m. the second day. Friends here are glad to know that Mrs. Doty is getting stronger each day. Several optimistic valley farm ers have registered at the Crater agricultural classes, where they will be taught by experts how to grow more crops on their farms. They will probably use the money Benson pays them to grow less produce to pay for the lessons. Our paper lady has installed us a new Mail Tribune box. The MT having got too big for its box, the old one was about right for the tree swallows to nest in, but the new one could support a family of barn owls. A waiting list of customers will be glad to learn that the po tato digging operation was fin ished Thursday on the John Nealon farm, much of it being done between showers. The task of sorting and grading of the spuds will soon be under way, and when completed they will be placed on the market. Each year, a new plot of land is picked for the growing of these potatoes, which customers claim have a texture and flavor that can't be beat. The only oth er grower of spuds in this vi cinity is Sam Glass, the ex-Marine and jack of many trades, who planted and harvested a, small plot that yielded a heavy crop of excellent tubers.

Three-fourths of the number belonged to Ben Daw son of the Ashland district, and were lambs that had been on pas ture this fall at the J. S. Richard son farm. The purchaser was Jim Lewis of Myrtle Creek, Ore. Wes McDonough, Sams Valley farmer, was over this" way last week with his new corn harvest ing gadget, and picked and shelled, at one operation, the corn on the Fred Smith and Morris farms, which will later go through a drying process at McDonough's White City dryer. Mrs. J. S. Richardson and Mrs. R. E. Nealon attended a birthday party Wednesday evening at the home of Mrs. S. H. Gay in Med ford, given in honor of Mrs. Richardson. Mrs. Dale Schultr finished moving Friday from her Sams Valley home, to the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Doran. She expects to reside here until her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Doran. She expects to reside here until her husband, who left Wednesday, Sept. 23, for a train ing camp of the U.S. armed forces, finishes his basic. Mrs. Frank E. Trigg 'of Nora Springs, Iowa, arrived Saturday to spend the winter with her niece here at the Ray Wyatt home. The Charley Adams family, recently of Central Point, are now residing at the Modoc Or chard where Adams is em ployed. There are four children in the family, three being in school. Several cases of flu are re ported in the district, but at the present time all are improving. State Deaf School To Get Kindergarten Salem (IP) Robert D. Mor row Construction Company of Salem was low of seven bidders at $96,229 for construction of a kindergarten at the State School for the Deaf here.' The bids were opened by the board of control Friday. The con tract will be awarded Oct. 29. Board Secretary Col. William Ryan said the apparent low bid was within the amount of mon ey available for the project. When the Library of Congress opened in 1802, it had 964 books. IQ00 Extra for Uncrating and Delivering umy w lujown EASY TERMS! Medford MONDAY EVENING UNTIL Is That So? A jet plane takes almost twice as much runway to be airborne in Denver than under exactly the same conditions with the same planeload in Philadelphia. An angler can cast his tiny No. 16 dry fly from 10 to 20 feet farther with the same effort in Wyoming than in Tacoma and take more trout. An American league pitcher may blank a team in Kansas City and then the next week 'be knocked out of the box by the same batters in the first inning. With jet planes, longer run ways absorb the difference; with anglers the size of the catch can be adjusted to the size of the skillet; but with the base ball players ah, that may make the difference in winning or losing a game, and the pen nant! And that's bad if it affects your home team. But something may be done about it. And just possibly it might help you pick the day's winning team. Why the difference? As everyone knows at higher altitudes the air is almost al ways thinner, less dense a plane cannot get airborne as quickly; the same lack of air resistance helps the 'angler cast his fly farther; and as for the fast-ball hurler, it just naturally helps him hurl it faster past the unsuspecting batter. Well then, doesn't it affect the pitchers on both teams the same way? Not at all. Air in a baseball . field is changeable from day to day and variations occur which can cause Whitey Ford to be belted out of the pitcher's box by the last-place club on the same day that a bull-pen pitcher can make monkeys out of the powerful New York Yanks. Density of Air The difference is the density of the air which can vary as much as 15 per cent during the season and often as much as 5 per cent between successive games with no change in tem perature, either. When the density is high, say 2.1 pounds per cubic yard, the curve ball has something to bite into and will dodge beautifully under Mickey Mantle's murder ous swing. But when the density is low, say around 1.8 pounds per cubic yard, then the ball may spin round and round but it won't break so Mickey lifts it clear out of the ball park. In a sense catchers have sensed part of this they will tell you that on hot days, the fastballers such as Billy Pierce or Bob Turley seem to be able Power Executive Urges Team Work Klamath Falls (IB Thomas W. Delzell, head of Portland General Electric Co. Oregon's largest corporation told the Ro tary club here Friday that a co operative effort on the part of all electric utilities in the region is the only way Oregon and the Northwest can lick power sup ply problems. Delzell, PGE chairman of the board and chief executive, said the question of providing ade quate power for the Northwest can be resolved "if all the groups pull together toward a common goal." The PGE executive offered a three-point power program: Cooperation among utilities and the government. Removal of the power ques- uuu win me vuiiiiLai aicua.

The moral is clear.- on days when the density is high, that's the time to use the curve ball artists: when it's low, to throw in the speed-ball specialists.
