fatal crashes.
The modification work in

1,200 pounds of metal to the
Electra's wing structure and
engine mounts. Government
tests have shown that , the
beefed-up structure not only

Purchasing
Change Considered
Ashland - The majority of
Tuesday night's Ashland city
council meeting was devoted
to two major issues created in
recent weeks.
An ordinance establishing
city purchasing procedures
was unanimously approved,
while a proposed change in
city residential zoning was
sent back to the city planning
commission for further study.
City purchasing procedures
have been sharply criticized
for more than a month. The
controversy centered around
the method used in soliciting
bids for city purchases.
On some purchases, an
nouncement that bidding
would be opened was sent to
a limited number of potential
bidders. Council man Don
Lewis criticized this proce
dure, and said that all possible
bidders should be notified. He
was supported by Edd Roun
tree, Ashland publisher.
Result of Study
The new ordinance came as
the result of a study by the
council ordinance committee.
Specifically, it establishes a
city purchasing agent, sets
purchasing procedures and
prescribes penalties for viola
tions.
City Superintendent Elmer
Biegel will be purchasing
agent. He will supervise pur
chases of materials, supplies,
e q u i pment and contractual
services.
The ordinance gives Biegel
power to "act to procure for
the city the highest quality in
supplies, equipment and con
tractual services at the least
expense to the city, and to sell
or dispose of all personal
property which has become
obsolete and unusable
The ordinance also provides
Bee School Being

Procedures, Zoning
that it is unlawful for any
officer or employee of the city
to purchase any supplies or
make any contract other than
through the purchasing agent.
In addition, all purchases,
contracts and sale of city
equipment must be based,
wherever possible, on com
petitive bids.
A special provision provides
that the Ashland Park com
mission shall not be bound by
the provisions of the ordinance
by reason of the authority
granted the commission by
the city charter."
Also the Ashland Commu
nity hospital will have the
right to hire its own purchas
ing agent. Robert Flynn, hos
pital director, and Dr. Arthur
Kreisman, hospital board
chairman, pointed out at a
recent council meeting that
hospital purchases cannot al
ways be governed by compe
titive bidding. They said abil
ity of a supplier to provide
immediate service was impor
tant. However, the ordinance pro
vides that hospital purchasing
regulations shall be subject to
approval by the council.
Fascination Leads
To Busy Schedule
Denton, Tex. - (UPD - When
Gene Haddan snatches a bit
of shut-eye on the early Dallas-Denton
bus in north Texas,
other passengers who have be
come acquainted with the slen-1
der traveler don't begrudge
him a snore or two. .
For Hadden is:
-A graduate psychology stu
dent at North Texas State col
lege in Denton.
-An instructor is a basic
psychology course at the col
lege. -A radio engineer for sta
tion KRLD in nearby Dallas
for 40 hours a week. .
-Co-author of a book for
education courses.
-A husband.
The busy, and often sleepy,
commuter began his hectic
schedule when he decided to
explore a high school fascina
tion he had for psychology.
He gained his radio training
through a mail-order course
in the depression years.

The residential zoning ordi
nance was submitted after
being approved by the plan
ning commission April lo; It
called for creating a multiple

as Zone 4.
Minimum lot area for con-"

set at 6,000 square feet, with
a minimum lot width of 50
feet fronting a street on in-,

provided that "where the ap

ments." The planning commission
lot size restrictions were
studied by Biegel and Marvin
Gloege, city planner, and they
indicated the restrictions pos
sibly were too strict. They
recommended the council
change the restrictions to in
clude only the 6,000 square
Endorse Ordinance
A petition was submitted by
37 land owners in the Moun
tain ave; and Wisconsin st,
area endorsing the zoning or- ;
dinance which would ban con
struction of multiple family
units in the area. They said
they were in complete favor
of the proposed strict" resi
dential zoning in the area of.
South Mountain ave.. above
Wisconsin st.
They said it was their feel
ing that any zoning change In
the area would lower proper--1
ty values, create a parking
problem, and could create .
sub-standard conditions.
Thomas Parker, Ashland
lenged the signers by saying
they did not know what they
signed. Parker said he inter- '
preted the ordinance to mean
that no additional people
could be taken into a home In
the area, even if they become
part of a family.
City Attorney Harry Skerry
said that where a family situ
ation exists there would be no
violation of the ordinance..
However, Skerry explained
that if a situation got to a
'boarding house" stage, a vio--
lation would occur. .
The proposed changes sug
gested by Gloege and Biegel
will be considered at a special .
planning commission meeting.
