    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

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.

TABLE ROCK
Autumn Leaves Are Fading
Table Rock Autumn leaves
are beginning to fade and fall
here, although we have had no
killing frost yet on account of
the protection of a fog blanket
that has been rolling in each day
before sunrise.
" 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.
A bread "wagon" from Jimmy
Allen's Medford bakery is mak
ing the rounds here on an exper
imental basis. The driver says
he found several Table Rock
housewives that do their own
bread baking.

morning at the local John Nea-
lon stock yards, where they
were weighed, sorted and load
ed on trucks for a trip to north
ern points, mostly in the Willam
ette valley. Three-fourths of the
number belonged to Ben Daw

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

corn on the Fred Smith and
Morris farms, which will later
go through a drying process at
McDonough's White City dryer.

moving Friday from her Sams
Valley home, to the home of her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Doran.
She expects to reside here until

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.

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.
New federal power market
ing policies, which would give
Oregon people "at least a reason
able share of the federal power
they have helped create and pay
for."
"Already," Delzell declared,
"there have been too many kilo
watts lost or delayed because of j
political side-choosing. . ."

to blast their high, hard fast
ones through the air effectively;
while on cold days, the "junk"
boys have more on the ball
the air resistance helping them
bend their stuff when the air is
heavier.
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.
