An Ideal Sire Ashland's new junior high school should b a dandy. At least that's the impres sion I got after School Sup erintendent Stanley J 0 b e guided me through the million-dollar building Monday afternoon. Work is now 75 per cent complete and the contractors, Graff and James of Medford, expect to have the job wrap ped up by their Sept. I dead line. Construction began last December. Jobe. who 1 understandably enthusiastic about the school, said he expects an enrollment of close to 700 seventh, eighth and ninth graders when classes begin this fall. The two lower grades previously at tended the old Junior high and the ninth graders were crowded in with the high schoolers. Technically, the school is on "the other side 01 ine tracks" on Walker ave., but don't let the cliche fool you If the site isn't ideal, it's just about the closest thing to it. The 25-acre plot is sur rounded by lush green fields, rolline hills and mountains In fact, it made me wonder how the youngsters will be able to look out at scenery like that and still concentrate on algebra, biology or English composition. Thr ar 11 ntrancs. Including th main on nar th center, and th main corridor is som 400 feet long. An almost unique feature is that extensive use of ramps kps stairs to a minimum - thr ar only two sets, both of which lead to th mechanical drawing room. Th two gymnasiums, on for th boys and on for th girls (naturally), ar spacious and wall planned. A large stag is being con structed in th girls' gym where programs can b pre sented to audiencee of up to 700 parsons. Each grad will hav an ntir wing almost to itslf. Classrooms ar large and on lid of ach of them consists primarily of win dows. Student lockers will b in th wings thus th main corridor will hare an uncluttered app a r a n e . Standing at on end of th main hall and looking to ward th othr end 1 similar to gasing through a long. long pipeline. The large cafeteria can ac commodate 400 hungry youngsters and will include a small stage for PTA programs and the like. Most banquets and student dances will be held there. Other facilities include a music room (complete with soundproof individual booths to enable musicmakers to toot privately to their heart's con tent), an industrial arts work shop, an athletic team room, a student council meeting room, an arts and crafts room and science lab rooms with the latest in work tables. The outside, too, has a lot of potential. Th boys' ath l.tic field will b at th far nd of th property and tnat for the girls at th near nd. Th acreage behind th school will b a play ground at first but Job hopes eventually to build tennis courts there. What I found especially interesting waa the heating system. Each room will have a separate oil heater, supplied from a 10,000-gal-lon tank buried at th far nd of th building, and ach teacher may regulate the temperature aa he or she desires. The school, naturally, is Jobe's pride and joy, and he also hopes the city may be able to afford a new senior high school one of these years. But Mr. J. it a practical man. First things first. By DOTTIE HARBISON Mail Tribun Correspondent Eagle Point - "Mardl Gras" has been selected as the theme for the all-day 4th of July celebration in Eagle Point this year. This is the second year such a celebration has been planned for residents of the Rogue valley by the Eagle Point Junior Chamber of Com merce. Two years ago the Jaycees started with their now famous breakfast and last year spon- Workers Needed To Build Floor At Phoenix Club By HELEN NIKODYM Mail Tribune Correspondent Phoenix Lots of labor, not necessarily skilled labor, is needed to construct the new hardwood floor in the Phoe nix community club, accord ing to J. D. Lubbers, floor construction chairman for the club. "We have people who know how to nail down the floor, but need lots more people to carry lumber, fit the various lengths together for nailing and peoform other odd job Lubbers explained. A floor party has been set for 7 p.m. Friday in the com munity clubhouse near the end of First St., Phoenix. Both men and women are needed.

Picnic Planned After the floor is completed a floor-warming party will be held with everyone who has contributed labor and materi als invited. A picnic may be held Sunday provided com munity club officials can get help from the Medford irriga tion district in erecting fence along the irrigation ditch by the clubhouse. This ditch and other ditches in the town are considered hazardous for youngsters. Two children, including one last summer, have lost their lives in the ditches during recent years.

A percentage of all the aft ernoon's proceeds will be used for the Scout Comunity build ing and the new Eagle Point park. mm Judy Wilson Named Top Student at Ruch School Hay Baler Turns 'Ornery;' Three Hurt in Hornbrook By KATHERINE CHAPMAN Mail Tribune Correspondent Hornbrook-That a hay bal er can be an "ornery unpre dictable critter" was learned the hard way this week by three local men. First to make the discovery was a young man home on a 30-day leave from the Army, and prefers to remain unnamed. After uneventfully helping his lather, a prominent Horn brook rancher, bale and load his first crop of hay, the young man drove to A. W. Spearin Jr.'s ranch to lend a hand with his crop, and had no sooner started on the job than he suffered a badly bruised and sprained right foot when the baler jammed on it. He was taken to a doctor in Yreka and given treatment and spent the rest of the week on crutches. Second Victim Just two hours after the first accident, Spearin's fa ther, A. W. Spearin Sr., 63 who also was helping his son caught his right hand in the baler trying to remove a piece of wire while the machine was in motion. He was rushed to the Siskiyou General hos pital in Yreka by a California Highway patrol officer who was sitting in his car nearby watching the baling opera tion. It was at first feared that Spearin would lose two fin gers, but it is now believed his hand will heal satisfactor ily and remain intact. The same balky baler later in the week was the cause of another mishap-this one less serious than the two previous ones. Its third victim was Tony Shelley, who lost his shirt when th baler caught fire. The shirt was not on Tony at the time-he had taken it off to beat out the blaze with it. His hat, too, joined his shirt in the conflagration.

By MARY KELL Mail Tribun Correspondent Gold Hill Fred Mikals of Ranney Western Methods rec ently addressed a Gold Hill city council meeting on the water collection method used by this firm in providing filt ered water supply to cities. Mikals also showed film that illustrated the theory and working plans of this method, which filters the water under ground. The water is then pumped into the reservoir or below the bed of a river. The council said it considered the information provided by Mik als as Interesting and infor mative, but that it was in no position to take any action. It is now planned to have an election called later this year to vote on the water fil tration plant that has been under consideration for more than three years. Mayor Milton Steinmetz conducted the session. He in formed the council that he would be absent from the city during July and August. Fred Lester, president of the coun cil, will act as mayor while Steinmetz is out of town. A hearing on the 1960-61 city budget was opened by the mayor. There were no objec tions or qCtestions concerning the budget so it was approved by the council. Several councilmen raised a question as to whether Chief of Police Floyd Taylor intend ed a abide by instructions made to him by way of a mo tion duly made, seconded and carried at the May 2, council meeting. The motion required reports on police activities. Chief Taylor seemed opposed to making such reports but the council Informed him that he would be expected to com ply with its order. An ordinance which pro vides for the vacation of cer tain streets in the Water Parks addition of the city was ap proved by the council The council decided that the laying of a 6-inch water main on Sixth ave. from Sith st. to Eighth st. should be started now. Taylor had obtained a bid of 21 cents a foot from Ken Hughes for digging the water line trench. Some of the councilmen were of th opinion that at least one other bid should be obtained. Following a motion passed by the council, Taylor was asked to get a price on trench ing from at least one other source. Frank E. and Marlys Stan ton were present to submit their application for permit to operate tli; O. K. Pastime tavern. The application was approved by the council. Action was taken by the council to request a property owner to cooperate by keep ing the street (First ave.) south of his property free of old cars and car parts. S BREAKAGE. IN US.
