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"

GH Summer Recreation Board
Makes Report to City Council
By MARY KELL
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Gold Hill-A regular meet
ing of the Gold Hill city
council was held last Monday
at the city hall, immediately
following a session of the city
budget committee.
During the budget commit
tee session a recess was called
at 8 p.m. for the purpose of
a public hearing on the vaca
tion of city streets Ash, Birch,
Cedar and Kir in the Water
Parks addition. There were
no protests voiced on the
question of vacating these
streets and an ordinance in
conjunction with vacation of
the streets will be taken up
at the next meeting of the
city council, Monday, June 6.
Procedure was discussed by
the council pertaining to the
change of traffic tickets. Aft
er June 1, 1060, uniform traf
fic tickets which have been
approved by the State Su
preme court will be used here
in compliance with this sys
tem. Police Reports
The council voted and went
on record Monday night to
put Into qtfect a new regula
tion In Gold Hill whereby the
police chief will be required
to submit a written report to
the city recorder each morn
ing giving a memorandum of
nil his law enforcement nc
llvllics of the previous 24
hours. A record of these daily
police reports will be kept at
the city recorder's office, and
will be available for public
inspection upon request.
The city council stressed
that the local police chief and
city deputy are not obligated
to police the premises at the
Saturday night dances held in
the city, except when called
by an official of the organiza
tion in case there is a law
violation or emergency that
would require their assist
ance. Councilmen said if the
organization concerned feels
it is necessary to have the
dances policed, it should be
up to the organization to re
tain their own deputies.
Donald Morrow, a member
of the Summer Recreation
board introduced Leon Myers.
linnby teacher and coach who
has been retained by the
board to direct the summer
recreation program for the
youngsters in this area. II. D.

Myers explained tentative
plans for the sports activities
in which youngsters will be
able to participate. The sched
ulc will depend on the differ
ent age groups, and number
of children taking part.
Little City League
He plans to organize a Lit
tie City league to teach the
fundamentals of baseball. He
said it is possible there will
be some summer basketball,
as well as soccer to condition
the youngsters for these
games. If there is enough in'
tcrest in tennis, some instruc
tion will be given on this
sport.
A similar program will be
carried on for the girls as
well as the boyi. -
Youngsters participating

ed. Parents will be responsi
ble for their child's transpor
tation. Myers lold the council that
the program operates three
hours a day, five days a week.

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.
The summer recreation pro
gram will not include swim
ming in the Rogue river.
$650 Appropriated
Morrow said various organ
izations already have voted to
appropriate $450 towards the
Summer Recreation fund.
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.
Other organizations repre
sented on the Summer Recre
ation board include Gold Hill
Grange, Odd Fellows lodge,
Gold Hill Garden club, and
the Womans Society of the
Gold Hill Community Meth
odist church. Members of
these groups have not yet des
ignated funds.
The council voted to admin
ister funds for the Summer
Recreation board. The only
actual expense to the city is
the $200 allowed in the budg
et for this purpose, because
the figure of $550 will be do
nated by the civic groups
working towards a commu
nity enterprise.
Communications from Ar
chie Rice, consulting engineer
for Cornell, Howland, Haves
and Merryfleld Consulting
Engineers, Corvallis, and the
city attorney in regard to the
water filter issue were tabled
until the next council session
because there was not suffi

Advice on Planning Groups
Presented to EPCity Council
By DOTTIE HARBISON
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Eagle Point There are at
present over 190,000 planning
commissions within the Unit
ed States, according to Bud
Hoover, with several thous
and ordinances all being cop
ied after various other cities.
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. At present the city is
using the League of Oregon
Cities code.
