MAIL TRIBUNE, MtdW, Orteoit, Sunday, Daemlr 7, 195S ISA Ashland in Favorable Position Against Smog Ashland Bob Church, weather bureau meteorologist at Medford, told Ashland Rc tarians last week that Ashland is in a favorable position to have less ' air pollution and smog because of its altitude. He noted that the air pol lution and smog situation in the Rogue valley will become more serious as the population increases. He added, however, that Ashland is about 1,160 feet higher than the Rogue river. As f a result, Church said, there is a bowl in which fog, smoke and fumes are trapped when thete is an inversion of normal temperatures. Temper atures during fog conditions show readings of about 30 on the ground and 60 about 2,000 feet, which is the reverse of normal conditions. The altitude of Ashland helps the local area have a warmer, cleaner air, he add ed, than points lower in the valley when the inversion con dition prevails. Church said satellites would play an invaluable role in de termining atmospheric condi tions and their effect on the world's weather in the future. He said automatic weather stations which will transmit information to central bureaus also are being developed. There is now one on Sexton mountain, north of Grants Pass.
