OCTOBER 21. 1960 Sign Agreement roved The Medford last night approved an agree- ment permitting billboards on City .property near the air port, providing that the bill board company give the city nee sign ana pay back rent. The agreement pnvp fnnr , billboards that have been lo cated along Crater Lake high way for the past' few years Directors To Be Medford Chamber of Com merce President Gerald T. Latham appointed . four men . Thursday to serve on the chamber's nominating com ,. mittee. The committee will nominate persons to sit on the ( chamber's board of directors. Appointed to the commit , tee are Frank Bash, Otto Ewaldson,- Ken Cook and Dwight Houghton. The ap pointments were made at yes t terday's board meeting. Chamber Manager Don Mc Neil said the committee will suggest 16 names to fill the eight positions that will ex pire at the end of this year. , One-third of the 24 members i of the board are retired each . year. A board member is not , eligible to serve a second . three-year term until he has been, off the board a year. The eight members who will be vacating seats are Bash, Cook, Ewaldson, Hough ton,, Latham, H. D. Christen sen, Chet Hubbard and C. H. Young. The final selection from' among the 16 nominees will be made by the chamber membership. '. McNeil said the chamber makes an effort to have a : cross-section of business cate gories represented on the board.' However, McNeil aid, no member is selected for the board unless he . has expressed an .interest to do ' so, and so it is not always : possible to get the desired ' cross-section. . ' 'Second Annual' Train Move Set Medford's parks and recrea tion department will celebrate Halloween this year with the "second annual" move of the Medco logging engine at Jack son park. - Parks uirector Kooert ia worth made the announce ment at last night's parks and Mnrnnti nn nnmmtceinn m Apf. ing: He said the move will come one year "to the day" after the engine was original ly moved into the Jackson park site. The old logging engine has historical significance and was donated to the city by the Medford corporation last year. It became the center of a recent controversy when resi dents, along McAndrews rd., ' complained to the city mat 4ha Antrim. hlnplcpH their view and called it a "monstrosity." Haworth said the city has decided to. move the engine to a permanent location on Clark st. He added that vol- unteers to help move tne en ' gine are more than welcome. It can be assumed that the i city hopes the annual event will come !l an end with this year's ceremonies. EX-OFFICER DIES v. New York -flJPU- Maurice F.

L. Van Sickle moved to amend the agreement by stipulating that the company pay the city $345 in back rent accumulated over the past couple of years at the rate of $25 annual rent per sign. . ' , . City Manager Robert Duff agreed that it was worth a try but said he was "not sure" the company would accept the amended agreement. Councilman Robert Baccus voted against both the amendment- and the main motion saying: "I am against bill boards in general. I don't think they add anything to aesthetic values.'.' ; Agreement Approved for Radio Transmi tter o n RoxyAnn B u tte Approval was given by the Medford city council last night to an agreement be tween the city and the county for location of radio transmit ting and receiving facilities on Roxy Ann butte.

One of the projects con cerns construction of a water main on Beatty st. from Mc Andrews rd. to Manzanita St., and on Manzanita St. from North Beatty st. to South Beatty st.

Day, representing the Med ford Airport Limousine serv ice, said he was making the request on the grounds that Kellenberger has violated several provisions of the city code relating to the operation of both taxis and limousines. Day presented a copy of a sworn affidavit to the coun cilmen which he said attested to the alleged violations. Action Deferred The council asked to take action for the first time in its remembered history chose to defer action on the request pending a more thorough study of the matter. - - The request brought into focus again the problems con cerning Medford's two taxi- main on Prune st., Park Place No. 5, and Alberts st.

Dallas, former board chairman of Revere Copper and Brass Co., died Thursday. cab companies and two limou sine services that have been plagueing the council for the past year. . These problems started last November when applications were 'filed, with the council for licenses to operate an ad ditional taxi-cab company (Courtesy Cab) and a limou sine service (Medford Air port Limousine service) ' in the- city. Prior to that time the : Yellow Cab company was the only operator of that kind in the city. Day and his clients cited four basic instances in which they allege Kellenberger is in violation of the city charter. They are: Not Meeting Flights "He (Kellenberger) is not attempting to meet all sched uled airline: flights for the public convenience, ' but in stead is using the Yellow Cab limousine for other purposes. "That the Yellow Cab Airport limousine is used as a taxi-cab without a taxi-cab license. . Two funds, the Stevens Street Water Main Fund No. 2, and the Wabash Avenue Water Main Fund No. 1, were created by council action. , . Two projects, a water main on Stevens St., and a sanitary sewer on Niantic St., were ac cepted by the council. Action on a petition seek ing paving, curbing and gut tering of Benson st. from Prune to 10th sts. was de ferred by the council as the petition, according to the city attorney, did not bear the necessary number of signa tures representing more than 50 per cent of the assessable front footage. , ' .... i Sale Deferred . A proposed sale . of city property along Benson st. to Keith B. Lawton for $100"was deferred by the council. The council awarded a con tract to M. C- Lininger and Sons to construct a 6-inch wa ter main on McAndrews rd. from Waverly ave. to Wabash ave., and on - several other streets in the area. Lininger and Sons submitted an appar ent low bid of $15,305. Plans and. specifications for the installation of a sanitary sewer in an alley between Park Place No. 5 and Alberts st., to extend from Dakota to Prune sts., were approved.

SONOTONE MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. "Yellow Cab taxi-cabs are regularly charging limou sine fares for trips to and from the airport. "Yellow Cab taxi-cabs are sent to answer limousine calls and" hold themselves out to passengers as being part of the limousine service, although they are not li censed as limousines." Aware of Requirements Day's request also contends that Kellinberger is well aware of the requirements to be followed under the city charter regarding the opera tion of taxi-cabs and limou sines. The notarized affidavit, signed by Clarence Jones, co owner of the Medford Air port Limousine service, cited specific instances of the al leged violations. One of these supposed spe cific instances says: "The failure of the Yellow Cab Air port Limousine to meet (com mercial airline) flights (at the airport) was often due to the fact that the limousine was being used to haul Mexican Nationals to and from the city of Medford and the Mexican Nationals' camp." Under a provision of the city code adopted several months ago by the council for the specific regulation of limousine: "Operators serv ing the Medford Municipal airport with limousine serv ice shall provide adequate limousine service to the pub lic for all scheduled air line flights." Cites Over 20 Cases The affidavit cites more than 20 cases where it says the : Yellow Cab limousine did not meet regularly sched uled flights. City Attorney Joel Reeder last night said th procedure being requested by Day and the Medford Airport Limou sine service is a correct one. Reeder said there are two such remedies in the code- to provide for the handling of alleged violations. One is the procedure being requested by Day for a "show-cause" hear ing and the other is a pen alty of $100 and 50 days in jail -upon conviction. Councilman Donald Hanson seemed to sum up the sent! ments of most of the council men when he said, "if we do (call for-a "show-cause' hearing) it will be the first. time the council has done this sort of thing . : . " He moved that the council consider the matter as a committee of the whole and the council un animously agreed with this motion. attract health workers from Jackson, Josephine, Lake, Klamath, . Coos, Curry and Douglas counties. . . The. conference is one of a series being held through out Oregon under joint medi cal society-public health spon sorship to improve rehabili tation of the state's estimated 20,000 handicapped or inca pacitated stroke patients. Studies in Oregon and oth er parts of the United States have proved that a large per centage -of stroke victims can be restored at . least to self care status - and may even be returned to normal activi ties - through adequate and prompt rehabilitation tech niques, x Among other points, the Medford conference will dem onstrate methods by which the nursing home and hospi tal personnel, under supervi sion of the patient's physician, may adopt a practical plan of physical and occupational therapy even when trained therapists are not available.
