to June 24.
Then fair promoters an

to the 14. .
Mayor Terry D. Schrunk
protested to San Francisco's
mayor. Letters were exchang
ed between officials of the
two cities.
- The Portland Chamber said
that the San Francisco fair
has now been postponed until
1960, the year after the trade
fair here.

California Man
Cited by Police
Edward C. Burkhart, Por-
terville, Calif., was cited by
Medford police Monday after
noon for driving the wrong
way on a one way street.
But he may have something
to say about it to a certain
member of his family. Burkr
hart was not in the car at the
time. Pauline - Theras Burk
hart, was.
The police report stated that
the Burkhart car was parked
facing the wrong way on Main
st. between Front st. and Cen
tral ave. The motor was run
ning. Burkhart had gone into
a store. .
Pauline Burkhart said she
reached over to switch off the
ignition, and the car jumped
forward and ran into a second,
properly parked, car.
A policeman arrived to in
vestigate the collision, and
Burkhart,- on returning to his
car, was issued the citation.
Police later explained that
the fact a car is parked facing
the wrong way is prima facie
evidence it was driven the
wrong way in order to get
there in the first place. And
Burkhart, reportedly, had
driven it.
