Shooting Story Changed by Youth A 16-year-old Medford boy who first told police he had been shot in the arm while walking through a field changed his story last night and admitted that he accident ally shot himself while play ing with a .22 caliber rifle. Richard James Morden, 172 Greenway Circle, was treated at Rogue Valley hospital for a flesh wound in his upper arm, and then released to go home with a neighbor. Morden called police about 6 p.m. yesterday and said he had been walking through a field in back of his residence when he heard some shooting and then felt a "tug" at his arm. He looked down, he said, and saw that lie had been shot. Medford police, however, noticed powder burns on the boy's shirt near the bullet hole, which would indicate that the gun was fired from close range. On further ques tioning, the boy admitted that he had been working on the rifle when it went off and shot him. Police said the boy appar ently told his original story because his father, who was out of town at the time of the accident, had given him strict instructions not to touch the gun.

But he is only the 34th man to hold the job. The confusion stems from Grover Cleveland, who served two non - consecutive terms, and who is counted twice by official historians. HIS DIXIELAND BAND REAL COFFEE mm WILLIAM FISHER W. H. (Hank) Fisher, who died Jan. 18, was appointed chief electrical engineer for the California Oregon (Power company in 1954.

The planning commission's recommendations will be em bodied in an ordinance and presented to the council for final approval at its next meeting. The ordinance would not apply to those house trailers already being used as residences and which have met city regulations to date. It was pointed out in a re port to the council that there arc now 75 house trailers be ing used as residences outside of trailer parks In the city. An estimated 30 of these have never obtained a city permit and are considered illegal. Councilman Donald Hanson questioned the need for the new trailer ordinance noting that a new zoning ordinance was being prepared by the city which should effectively control trailers. Councilman Robert Baccus, however, pointed to the recent influx of trailers as residences In the city, and said there Is a need for an interim ordi nance." Councilmen Hanson and Al Bradford voted against acceptance of the commis sion's recommendation. The council also called for a special meeting with the commission to discuss several things which the council feels need discussing.

Complaint Seeks Damages for Well A complaint has been filed in circuit court by a valley couple against the Talent Irri gation district for damages done to a spring on their farm on Coal Mine rd. The complaint, filed by Os car and Evelyn S. Gysin, seeks $40,000 special damages and $6,000 general damages. According to the complaint the Gysin farm Included a spring which was near an ir rigation canal. About Feb. 1, 1059, the irrigation district widened the canal near the spring and, according to the complaint, shock waves from the explosives used in the project caused a shift in the underground strata so the spring ceased to flow except when there is water in the canal. It is stated that the Gysins had used the spring water for Irrigation, cattle and to serve their house and lt is now nec essary for them to drill a well.
