' A Wodneaday, May 11,1960 Out on ii &s!illM B- SOB WALTERS Harry and Harold We goofed in writing one of the headlines for Monday's regional page. Anyway, we think we did. We're still pretty fuzzy on the whole thing. The story, written by Cor respondent Dottie Harbison, concerned installation of officers by Eagle Point's Jay cees and Jayceettes. "New Presidents Installed by EP Jaycees, Jayceettes," the three - column headline aid. Under that was a one column head: "Harold Hans com, Mrs. G. Nelson Take Top Offices." A picture of Mr. Hanscom referred to him as Harry Hanscom. He also was called Harry throughout the story. The catch? Harold Hanscom isn't Harry Hanscom. Harold is Harold and Harry Is Harry. They're brothers. Don't go away. Two other officers were installed by the Jayceettes. Mrs. Harold Hanscom is sec retary. Mrs. Harry Hanscom is treasurer. This kind of thing, you know, might rattle a lot of people. But not us. No, sir. Twinkle-twinkle little star, how I wonder . . . Speaking of nim, there was an accident in Ashland a whil back in which moving car plowed into a parked one. Sitting in in driver's seat of the parked car was a college siudani named Larry Derry, who since has signed a complaint charging tha other driver with driving while under the influence of fire-waitr. If Larry needs a lawyer, we have a suggestion: Ash land City Attorney Harry Skerry. "Hello, Larry Derry. This is Harry Skerry. Don't be contrary and don't be wary. Things will be very merry, if the hatchet you'll bury, Larry." Or something like that. It took a lot of walling, but we finally got the drop on Cily Hall Reporter Greg Nokes, who recently has made a couple of derogatory com ments (via "Polluck") about our golf game and "lead-footed " driving habits. Friend Nokes said the other day he'd lost IS pounds since coming to Mcdford six months ago, and now weighs about 160. After some quick figuring, we concluded that Sept. 9, 1085 will be a banner day In deed. On that day, at his current rate of disintegration, Mr. Nokes should weigh exactly nothing. One guy, wa'ra told, was njoying his first rid in a sports car but thera was on thing that puziled him. Fi nally ha asked the driver about it, "What's this concrete wall w keep driving along? I don't remember any wall this long around here." Snapped the driven "That's th curbl" G3 0 Q CCD O c::tlxc:...;c:o O OCO O D O a . e y rv v .- .. ji.,:M'-- '-' 1 i ' 1 .

BILL COOPE South Riverside at Barnett - Phon 2-5442 Tiller Students Visit Nickle Mine at Riddle By VIOLA ROGERS Mail Tribune Correspondent Tiller-Drew-Children of the third through sixth grades of the Tiller Drew school visited the Hanna Nickle mine and smelter at Riddle last Thurs day, May 5. They left the school with teachers Mrs. Oscar Ostlund and Mrs. Ed Sullivan, Mrs. Richard B. Slaler and Mrs. George Stone as chaperonos. The children learned the ore, which is mostly garnio ritc. is open pit mined by 2'j cubic yard diesel shovels. These shovels load 22-ton die sel trucks which haul the ore to a stockpile in front of the screening plant. Screened, Crushed After the ore Is screened and crushed, it Is deposited by conveyor belt Into a coni cal surge pile of 23,000 ton capacity. The ore is transported from the surge pile on the moun tain to the smelter at the foot of the mountain by means of a continuous aerial tramway. The ore travels between surge pile and smelter stockpile a distance of 8,308 feet while dropping 2,000 feet In eleva tion. The tramway carries ap proximately 2t tons of ore I down the mountain at a speed ! of 500 feet per minute. There are nets above the road to catch any ore which might spill out of the returning empty cars. The ore brini: , sticky sometimes clings to the empty cars and is shaken loose on the return trip. The children arrived back , t the school for a hot lunch.

These are Lions club, S200; Hanby Elementary school stu dent body, $100; Amethyst Rebekah lodge, $25; Gold Hill Health unit, $25 and Gold Hill PTA $100. The $200 allowed by the council in the budget for the city's donation to the recrea tion program was approved by the budget committee prior to the council session, making a total at this time ' $650 which has been appropriated to the fund. Morrow said this leaves $100 to be raised by the Summer Recreation board to meet the minimum budget expense of $750.

Hoover appeared before the city council here last Tuesday evening to discuss the need, advantages, d 1 s a d vantages, and possibilies of Eagle Point adopting one. Hoover recommended crea tion of a subdivision ordin ance first to control the de velopment of street width, water and sewer lines, height of buildings, set back of build ings, fire walls and waste areas with the sudden in crease of building and subdi visions now going on In Eagle Point with the zoning and building codes to follow. Hoover pointed out that the type of ordinance used in larger cities where the houses are extremely close could not be adapated very readily to a smaller town but, regardless of the ordinance, it should be enforced fairly with nothing being put Into the ordinance that the council does not wish to enforce or does not enforce. Hoover emphasized that the landowner who subdivides more than three lots under five-acre tracts must draw out his plans and submit a copy to the county planning com mission if the city does not have one of its own. A copy of these plans must also be submitted and approved by the assessor's office, irriga tion district, sanitation de partment, subdivision commit tee, road commission, ana me city council. It would take approximately two months be fore It could be finally ap proved by the commission. Councilman Ernest Gregg was appointed to contact the county planning commission and the city attorney in re gard to the commission and the council voted to give the power of appointing a pan ning commission to Mayor Ed Putman if he thought an emergency one was needed at this time. A letter was read In re gard to an owner being held liable for water bills incurred and left unpaid by renters. Hannaford looked up the city ordinance and read Section 25 which states that "all prop erty having connections with the city water main or later als shall be held liable for all charges for water used in the buildings or on the premises of such property, whether one or more houses, families, or persons are on the same serv ice or otherwise." Harry Hanscom asked that local resident be notified that the garbage dumping area on his properly would be closed to all garbage dump ing as of May 15 when the contract expires. The city's new pit is ready and Council men Gregg, McGovern, and Hunting were instructed to notify the man, look into the irregularities of the present jumping and ask the man to meet with the council twst month. Council members voted to use part of the unused allocat ed park funds set aside in l le present budget for upkeeo of the city parli for water pioe needed in the new park so the lawm could be seeded. The price it not to exceed $200. Report on Cod The short form of the uni form building code was brief ly reported ou b McGovern, Don Kimmei, and building in spector Jaka Brown to study the book further and make a list of the changes they feel necessary to fit the town's needs.
