A Nearly 50,000 Trees Distributed In Eagle Point Grange Project Eagle PolnwA total of 50,- 000 trees will have been dis tributed by the end of this month by the Eagle Point Grange tree planting commit tee, according to committee chairman C. C. Hoover, Greg ory rd. The committee recently or dered 2,000 pine trees for dis tribution. Saturday the Big Y market in Medford put up money for 6,000 more trees to be given away at the mar ket. Someone recently remarked that this modern day "Johnny Appleseeed" was "sprucing up" the county. Since most of the trees being distributed are varieties of spruce this may be true. Potted Trees The tree planting commit tee two months ago distribute ed 350 potted trees to the residents In Eagle Point. About 358 more were distrib uted to Eagle Point High school and 750 to the Eagle Point grade school. ' About 1,250 were given Cub Scouts and 2,100 to the Girl Scouts. On March 1 the tree plant ing committee beaded by Hoover passed out 2,500 seed ling trees to Medford school principals at the Oak Grove school. The trees were to be planted by the school children on the school grounds or at home. Varieties of trees included Colorado blue spruce, Sitka spruce, Norway spruce and Arizona cypress. Other varieties which have been distributed this year are aborvitae, some cedar, Chi nese elm and laurel. Hoover conceived the tree planting project over two years ago while he was laying out his plats for subdivisions on the Agate desert near Eagle Point. Then, he thought of planting banks of hard wood trees whose foliage would turn bright colored in TO AFFECT TILLER School Reorganization Proposal Explained Tiller-Drew - A lively ques tion and answer period follow ed talks by Bill Lewellyn, dis t r i c t superintendent, and Charles Porter, board mem ber, at the regular meeting of the Days Creek PTSA Thurs day, March 23, Porter explained the pro posed change in the grades at Days Creek and Tiller schools. Tiller school would have the first six grades Instead of the eight they now have. Days Creek would have all grades through 12, except the fourth ajid fifth. Those fourth and fifth grade pupils who now at tend Days Creek school would be transported to Tiller. Ac cording to Porter, this change would entail an added expense of $5,100 for transportation, $5,000 for an additional teach er, and $4,000 for finishing and furnishing the two new rooms at Tiller. Lewellyn explained the ex tensive advantages to be gain ed by the change. Each teach er would have only one grade and could give more individu al attention to the pupils. Whether or not this change is made will depend on how the people vote on the school budget.
