This means that the com mission's recommen d a t i o n will stand and the sign will not be erected. Several Medford High school students who will be some of those taking part in Student Government Day next week were at the council meeting to see how the regular city government performs. Those attending the meeting and what their city offices will be next week are John Lacy, councilman Ward I; Jim Lacy, chief of police; Patty Barnes, planning con sultant; Judy Bash, council woman Ward IV; Dave Ryn, councilman Ward III; Lee Cook, councilman Ward III; and Gary Milne, police cap tain. One of those attending last night's meeting said that more of the students, including Stu den Mayor Pat McLoughlin, were not able to attend be cause of last night's senior class play at the high school. Short Meeting Regarding last night's meet ing which lasted just a little over a half hour, John Lacy said it was pretty short and seemed to go off rather smoothly. When asked if he thought the student's council meeting next week would be as short, he said he didn't think so. The council postponed ac tion on a request from South ern Pacific railroad to build two spur tracks on McAn drews rd., and will consider the request at the next regu lar meeting. In response to a query from the audience regarding the park and recreation commis sion's "reluctant" r e c o m mended abandonment of the proposed diving pool at the Jackson pool project, Mayor John Snider said the council feels strongly about the. pool and wishes it could do some thing, but every possible way of raising ' the $17,000 has been expored and "it just can't be done." The council accepted a low bid of $17,017.25 from the Signal Oil company to pro This Evening LOBSTERS SEA SCALLOP PRAWNS Charcoal Steaks CANDLE ROOM HOTEL MEDFORD 5:30 p.m. till Midnight . . vide gasoline, diesel oil and kerosene to the city for the coming year, and also ac cepted a low bid of $764.65 from the Tidewater Oil com pany to provide the city with motor oil, gear and chassis lubrication. The council approved a United Air Lines request to lease a small building at the municipal airport for the stor age of oil and also approved the purchase of several prop erties which are necessary for the city's plans to extend 10th st. from Portland ave. to Riv erside ave. including a new bridge.
