TMliJUini, They'll Do It Every Tuning in on part of THE BASEBALL 6AME BROADCAST VOU HEAR EULOGIES LIKE THIS-. V Spiritual, Of Gospel Three speakers at Monday's Chamber of Commerce round- table luncheon attested to the Medford Gospel Mission as being both a spiritual and a material asset to the commu nity. Speaking on behal: of the mission were Medford Police Lt. Jack McMillan for the law enforcement viewpoint; Clar ence Wilson for the viewpoint of a businessman; and Dr. D. Kirkland West, for the view point of the ministry. The mis sion is of value to all three. These three men along with Glenn McCullough, a member of the mission's board of di rectors, are seeking to enlist the support of the business community for a new mission to be erected .on Front st. across from the central fire station. Each man spoke of the aims. goals and accomplishments of the 2-year-old mission as he saw it. Wilson then informed the businessmen assembled at the roundtable that each would -be contacted to help financially with the proposed mission. ' ' Wilson said the mission has taken an option on the prop erty across from the fire sta tion. The option expires May 26, he said, and in order to secure the property a $1,000 down payment must be raised before then. The total cost of the property is $10,000. Places for Indigent Lieutenant McMillan was the first to speak. He said that before the mission was estab lished in Medford there were not enough places for indigent or down-and-out persons to stay in the city. When persons would come to the police department seek ing shelter for the night, Mc Millan said: "It was not very pleasant to be able to tell them, 'I'm sorry; but we just don't have anything we can do for you.' " The police lieutenant said that before there was a Gos pel Mission on Front St., it was necessary to have three men patrolling the street. But now, he said, it is necessary to only have one officer on part-time patrol of Front st. He called this, "a savings to the taxpayers." Great Admiration McMillan said the police de partment has a "fond feeling and a "great admiration" for the mission and added that "It fills a real community need." He said the department recognizes that there are other organizations who also help with transients, but noted that ,' CANDLE ROOM Hotel Bedford Ki.iJrOhl), OrU.vjiO.V Time i -zzuz THE HAPPIEST CLUB MAJORS-FLIP FAC-LE ".Htli.AND PINKV PLUMM6R, 1 BASEMAN, ARE TWO OF BOYS IN BASEBALL - CLEAN "HAPPV-OO-LUCKV GENTLEMEN ON FIELD AND OFF.'

The second speaker was Dr. West, who discussed the hu man factor of the mission. He said the "very main purpose" of the mission is a spiritual one. The mission, he said, tries to get both to the "heart of the matter, and the man." The First Presbyterian church minister said that the mission is accomplishing this spiritual goal. He explained there are now two men in the church who were "straightened out" by the mission. He pointed out that mem bers from -the majority of churches in Medford go to the mission to help. He said many of these people that go to the mission to help, "find Christ in a more real way" than they would at church. He challeng ed his audience at the round table to go to the mission themselves and "stand up and Weaiher FORECASTS ' Medford and vicinity: Partly cloudy tonight and Wednesday.

Dr. West said they would all be better for It. Valua to Community The minister said the com munity owes more than it can ever repay to the people at the mission. "They rescue the ielsam and flotsam and make it useful and worthwhile again. "We can do nothing less thnn cive this the full support and enthusiasm and backing that it deserves." fMnronee Wilson, president of the mission's board of di rectors, was the last to speak. He reviewed in brief the fmindinir of the mission and said Fred Robinson of Robin enn Rrnthr-rs Clothing store. was the "guiding force" be hind it. Wilonn snirl Mission SUDer- intendent Willard Howard was recruited from Bakers- field, Calif., two years ago. Howard, Wilson said, had re lirorl from his regular busi ness and had wanted to go into mission work, lne How ards get $100 a month for their efforts, he said. Industry Within Itself Wilson called the mission "an industry within itself." Hb snid it fills a need in the community that no other in dustry in the community can, and asserted that it saves the taxpayers of Jackson county "untold amounts ol money by making men out of bums, Tiiirlnff its two vears of ex istence the mission has served 39,347 meals, accommodated 17,042 visits to the cnapei onrl hnH Its 21 beds used 17. 042 times. In addition, the mission has given away tnou sands of articles of clothing to both men and lamines. Tn Hnlns all this. Wilson estimated that the mission nas spent no more than $8,000 in r-nsh. All of the meals, and much of the time spent pre nnrintf them, have been dO' nated. He said: "It's evident that there's somebody looking on from above." Wilson indicated that this mnnih will hn the first time the mission has gone out into the business community and solicited funds. Dr. West. Wilson. McCul lough, and Chief of Police Charles P.

The congressmen asked the House Appropriations com mittee to approve a $180,000 research program to unlock the secrets of pear decline, a disease which already nas killed thousands of pear trees in the three states. The Agriculture department has budgeted SOO.OOO for the research program, but the West coast congressmen want the amount doubled. Rep. Harold T. Johnson (D Calif.) told the committee that approval of the expanded pro gram would mean Unit six scientists could concentrate on the problem. The Agriculture department now has only one man working on the disease. Rep. Clem Miller (D-Calif.) said California had budgeted $284,000 for pear decline re search, compared with $208, 000 for the present fiscal year ending June 30. Miller told the committee that California agriculture of ficials had estimated that the rapidly spreading disease could cause a loss of about $4, 500,000 in next year's crop. The program outlined for the House committee was drawn up recently in Berke ley, Calif., at a meeting of ex perts from federal and state agriculture departments, Paci fic coast universities and the pear industry. .
