Eagle Point Behind
In Development of
Sanitary Sewer Plan
Eagle Point The commu
nity of Eagle Point is about
20 years behind on its sewer
project, T. M. Gerow, state
sanitary engineer, told a pub
lic hearing recently at the
Eagle Point school gymnas
ium. Approximately 250 persons
attended the meeting, which
was called by Mayor Ed Put
man and the city council to
explain the proposed muni
cipal sewer installation for
Eagle Point.
A vote on a bond issue to
finance the project is expect
ed this fall.
Gerow referred to the 1938
pollution prevention bill
which he said was passed to
clean up contamination of
streams and, waters in Ore
gon. He said he had been in
contact with the Eagle Point
city council for several years
and that the area was late in
improving its sewage dis
posal. Estimated Cost
The sanitary engineer, who
is with the Oregon state sani
tary authority, said the esti
mated cost of a municipal
sewage disposal system for
Eagle Point had more than
doubled since it was first pro
posed in. 1941. Voters turned
down the project at that time.
Ernest Gregg, chairman of
the project committee, quot
ed "rough estimations" of the
cost of the proposed system.
He said over-all cost is estim-
Union St. Park
Project Tonight
"Fun for Funds" is planned
tonight at Medford's west-side
Union st. park.
' The project is being spon
sored by the neighborhood
Union St. Part Improvement
group to raise funds for play
ground equipment.
The public-all ages-is in
vited to the event, which is
to include games, cake walks
and "surprises and prizes." A
hot dog, potato chips and soft
drink can be bought for 25
cents-since these have been
donated, the sum represents a
clear 100 per cent profit,
sponsors report.
City firemen are going to
serve the meals. The Amen
can Legion's 40 et . 8 voiture
will be on hand to give rides
to children.
The event is the latest step
in determined and so far suc
cessful efforts to turn a va
cant lot into an attractive
park. The undertaking is the
work of neighborhood volunteers.
Mrs. Edith Eden of Med
ford's parks and recreation
commission reported last
night that Kogap Lumber In
dustries has donated a new
sawdust product for ' the
park's walkways to keep
them from becoming too dus
ty. She said that rest room fa
cilities were becoming neces
sary as children came from
further and further away to
enjoy the park. Plans for
these facilities were being
drawn up, she reported.
The park is situated be
tween Hamilton and Plum
sts. at 13th st.
ated at $176,000, plus $11,000
for the proposed site of a dis
posal plant.
The site T under considera
tion by the council is 53 acres
between Antelope and Little
Butte creeks near property
formerly owned by Mr. and
Mrs. Roland Jenks on Crater
Lake highway.
Question Asked
The question "What type
of city do we want?" was
asked the audience by John
Pletsch of the Jackson Coun
ty Federal Savings and Loan
association of Medf ord.
Pletsch asked if Eagle
Point wants increased popula
tion, new industry, a new and
better shopping center and
new and improved homes.
All depend on development
of the city and community, he
declared. Important develop
ment issues for a city were
listed as zoning, subdivision
ordinances, modern utilities
and good streets. Pletsch said
the city "should be attractive
and inviting enough to have
new businesses and residents
want to come into it."
Another hearing on the
proposed sewer system will
be held later, with a possible
vote on the proposal in Sep
tember. Supporters predict
that meeting the state sanita
tion ordinance will increase
the number of residents and
business who will help fi
nance the project.
Film Shown
Gerow showed a film "On
to the Sea" which depicted
polution of streams and wat
ers in the Willamette valley.
B. Kent Blackhurst, Eagle
Point city attorney, and Ed
ward Jaros, representative of
John W. Cunningham and As
sociates, consulting engineers,
Portland, ' attended the hear
ing to answer questions.
Gregg said complete facts
on construction and financing
of the city's sewage system
will be sent before the bond
election to all persons af
fected.
Liz Denies Rumor
Baby Expected
Sagaro, Spain -flJPD- Actress
Elizabeth Taylor said today
rumors she and Eddie Fisher
are expecting their first child
are "ridiculous."
Miss Taylor said there was
no truth to the rumors which
started in Paris Wednesday
after she boarded a plane for
Barcelona wearing a brown,
sack-like dress often worn in
France by expectant mothers.
"It is completely ridicu
lous," she said. "I'm not ex
pecting. I'm here to do a picture."
