Further Study Needed For Interim Zoning Ordinance Completion and approval of an interim zoning ordinance for the Camp Baker rd. area near Phoenix hit a snag last night as members of the Jack son county planning commis-J sion pecked away at techni calities. ' Planning Commission Chair man Edwin Gebhard, Central Point, asked the commission's zoning committee to study the proposed ordinance further and iron out any difficulties. Zoning committee members are Robert Boyer, Medford at torney; John Weisbrod, Shady Cove, and Clifford Lovejoy, Old Military rd. A motion by Gerald La tham, planning commission member, to take the proposed ordinance under advisement was approved. The motion was that the petition of resi dents of the Camp Baker area for a single family dwell ing and agricultural zone was sent to the planning commis sion for study, the commission studied it and concurs .with the need for zoning. The commission asks that the area seeking zoning be maintained at status quo un til the commission has com pleted its standards and speci fications. Accepted Petition The planning commission during a recent public hear ing had accepted the petition for zoning from Camp Baker residents. Residents of that area had heard that an auto wrecking yard might be es tablished there. ' Dave Lowry. Phoenix, plan ning commission member, strenuously objected, to pro posed interim zoning regula tions for agricultural district. Setting a limit of 200 square feet in area ' for fruit and vegetable restricts the farmer to the peon class, Lowry said. "I don't think it is fair to" riirtat in ihm farmer Tiow large a fruit and produce - stand he shall have," he con tinued. . - 1 Weisbrod replied that un less the area of roadside stands is strictly limited, any supermarket could set itself up under regulations applying only to fruit stands. Roadside Stands Clifford B. Cordy, county horticultural agent, said that the Jackson county stone fruit committee had recommended that fruit growers with less than 10 acres of early ripen ing fruit can best sell it through roadside stands. Veg etable growers who sell their produce locally have come to the same conclusion, he said. oucn a stringent reguiauuu on fruit stand size would be con . tradictory to these recom mendations, Cordy said. , Weisbrod submitted an amendment to the' proposed ordinance which requires that an application for a certifi cate of occupancy be made to the planning commission with three sets of detailed plans and specifications for a new building before the dwelling is built. The way the ordinance was originally written, the certifi cate of occupancy could be obtained after the building was constructed. This regula tion exempts "accessory farm buildings." Building Code Tabled In regards . to a county building code, Lovejoy said the planning commission 'had too many other matters to work on to consider such a code at this time. , ' - ' ' Lowry was appointed to a recreation sub-committee af ter Planning Technician Jack Eaton reminded the commis sion that the sub-committee had never been officially dis banded. Commission members felt that since the newly cre ated county parks and recrea tion commission is consulting with them on the prior studies made by the sub-committee that that unit could render more valuable assistance by remaining active. It would serve as a liaison group. Other members are Ed Bolt and Latham. MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or. 9 Thursday, July 9, 1959 Queen Arrives At Port Arthur Port Arthur, Ontario (UPB Queen Elizabeth, who formal ly opened the St. Lawrence Seaway with President Eisen hower at Montreal 'June 26, sailed into its westermost Ca nadian terminal today. Shew as told in advance briefings and in speeches pre pared for delivery by the lo cal mayors at a lunch in Fort William the people of the lakehead were counting on the waterway to open up the prai ries to world commerce . The Queen and her hus band, Prince Philip, scheduled a five-hour visit to Port Ar thur and its twin city of Fort William en route from Sault Ste. Marie to Calgary. While the Queen was in Sault Ste. Marie touring a steel mill Wednesday, a Port Arthur judge ordered a 44-year-old American woman who said she was "crazy" about 'the Queen sent to a mental hospital for 60 days ob servation The woman was . picked up by Royal Canadian Mounted Police the previous night affc-J er she gained considerable lo cal publicity by announcing she was going to talk to the Queen and Philip and present them with "friendship flags." A police spokesman said the woman had a record of men tal illness in the United States. Hatfields Observe First Anniversary Salem (UPS Gov. and Mrs. Mark Hatfield observed their first wedding anniversary Wednesday. They celebrated quietly at Salem General hospital, where Mrs. Hatfield is conva lescing after the birth of their daughter Elizabeth. A special cake was a feature of the ob servance. Mrs. Hatfield hopes to bring their daughter home this week end. A caller at the office of Gov. Hatfield was Rev. Wil liam F. Kerr, who performed the marriage rites in Portland a year ago. ' ' Los Angeles Heat Ties Year's Hii Los Angeles - (UPD - A sum mer heat wave hit Los An geles Wednesday, pushed the temperature up to 92 to tie the year's high and is expect ed to bring a high of 95 de grees today. ... Moderate smog which covered the basin area will return again today to plague residents, according to the Air 'pollution Control District Hot weather covered many nearby cities with Arcadia re porting a high of 93, Mon rovia 92, Gleniale 94, and San Fernando Valley 99. In the desert areas. Palm Springs recorded 113 degrees and El ' Centro 112. 1 1 "" 4 Men Return From New York City Meet Eston Humphrey and David Irving have returned from the lions International conven tion held June 30 through July 3 "in New York City. Approximately 20,000 Lions representing 99 countries at tended. Humphrey, who was ap pointed international coun selor, returned July 6 after spending July 4 touring Wash ington, D.C. Irving returned to Medford Saturday, after taking office as governor of District 36 in Oregon, "I have to run into the grocery store for a loaf of bread and a bottle of milk," says the little woman. "I'll only be a couple of minutes." Half and hour later she shows up at the car with the bread and milk plus four cans of tuna fish, a quart of ice cream, an arm load of paper towels, a package of tea, a frozen pie, some cheese dip with a package of potato chips, a new kind of detergent for the washing machine and a batch of balloons for the kids. Why do women do this? A noted package designer, Robert Sidney Dickens, says it is because the housewife is in "a mild hypnotic trance induced by mass displays, lights, signs, packages, pictures and brilliant colors in the chrome and enamel food palaces." According to this Mr. Dickens,' whoever he is, the "trance-like buying is one of the things that helps keep America's complex economy boiling. "Not only does un planned buying keep consumer demand strong and grow ing," says Mr. D., "but it also produces faster acceptance for new products. And one out of five products now sold was unkonwn 10 years ago." However, it seems this isn't all bad. Because of this semi-hypnosis, the housewife doesn't buy everything. Seems that a Chicago visual survey organization has proven - to their satisfaction, anyhow, that the "average shopper ,in a state of supermarket ennui has a very much .lowered re sponse rate and level of awareness." That's the reason that products must be eye-catching and signs easy-tc-read, etc. And while we're on the subject, who decides what goes where in a super-market? Some of it makes sense, but some doesn't. Of course, its a smart trick 'to put the packaged short cakes close by the-fresh fruit, and the jars of jelly and jam by the bread counter. But why isn't canned milk somewhere near the fresh milk, why is the potato salad by the eggs in some stores, instead of with the packaged meat, for instance, and why wouldn't it be logical, to put syrup on a shelf with the pancake and waffle flour, 'instead of near the ice cream cabinet? However the food is arranged, we go in to buy bread and milk and come out with $10 worth of groceries. . ' '.. " Potpourri has been wondering fi Khrushchev and his cohorts in Moscow have decided that Russian women should look more glamorous. Within recent months we read that the House of Dior of Paris was invited to show its models in Russia, that lipsticks are now being made available (three shades, as we remember) and American pattern and fashion houses were encouraged to include displays in the American National exhibition which opens in Moscow July 25. The Dior show, it is reported, created a sensation in Moscow, with men and women by the thousands crammed into each one. ' It will be interesting to see if they react the same way to the American exhibit. It is reported that the American exhibits of clothing are to be typical of what the" average woman in the U..S. wears - not high fashion stuff. Mc Call's Patterns and Singer Sewing machine companies are sending three or four women to conduct demonstrations and to cut and make clothing such as the ordinary American woman makes for herself and her family. In addition to this, 28 young women guides will wear typical U.S. clothing - all designed and executed in red, white and blue, separately or in combinations of the three colors. Each girl will have about a dozen separate outfits -donated by clothing manufacturers of America. The guides all speak fluent Rusisan and were given a strict examination to see that they were well versed in Unitd States history, geography, etc. For years Russian women have been encouraged to wear simple, plain clothing and were indoctrinated in the belief that makeup was vain, if not downright unpatriotic. Is all this glamour to be4 just dangled before their eyes, or are they preparing the Russian women for the time when they will be able to buy Dior gowns and American patterns or clothing? Either Russian women aren't like other women, or else the Communist party leaders better be prepared to make some of this merchandise available to their women folk, and not just show them what the women in France and the U.S. have and wear.-O.S. - O Announcing . . .
