o MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNEOMEDFORD. OREGON MONDAY. MAY 21. 1362 Regional Roundup by Cleva Twltchell Mail Tribune Regional Editor BUILT FOR TWO Gary Yeager and his sister Sheila of Hornbrook ride a sort of bicycle built for two a tandem bicycle that Gary built. Gary, a freshman at Yreka High school, and Sheila, seventh grader at Hornbrook elementary, re two of the nine children of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Downey. "EENY. MEENY . . . "Martha, a sheep owned by Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Buck of Applegate Valley is the proud mother of triplet lambs, Eeny, Meeny and Moe. When this photo was taken, the little ones were doing fine at the age of three weeks. They're fed by bottle every two-and-a-half hours and have an egg in their milk every day and, mind you, their own vitamin pill daily. Moe is mottled and a little darker than the other two, but for awhile nobody could distinguish between Eney and Meeny, so one of them wore an X drawn with lipstick for identification. Earle Jossy, county agent, says triplets among sheep are not really rare but that only .one ewe in 50 or 100 will have them.

About four years ago a group of 91 women in Jose phine county got together for a course in light rescue work. They enjoyed it so much that they decided to con tinue meeting periodically after the course had ended. Today, the group, known as the Calamity Janes, is a unique type of Civil defense organization. Ted Plum mer, Josephine County Civil Defense director, says that to his knowledge it's the only women's civil defense organization In existence. The women meet once a month and go through train ing exercises, principally with the county's disaster truck. Forrest Gardner of the Grants Pass Fire depart ment acts as Instructor. . "It's a wonderful thing to have in connection with a . civil defense operation," Plummer says of the Calamity Janes. The group can be used in any kind of an emer gency, he points out, not necessarily one resulting from an enemy attack. To date, the Calamity Janes organization has not had to be called upon in any type of an emergency, Plum mer said. But it has participated in a number of practice exercises. Just last Thursday it cooperated with other county and city agencies in handling a mock chemistry explosion at Grants Pass High school in which some 40 "injured" students were taken to the hospital. Adrtrliiing From Gold Hill I paid my first visit to the Gold Hill Chamber of Com merce last Thursday right, attending a dinner meeting called for the purpose of initiating cooperative adver tising by Gold Hill area merchants on the regional page. Quite a few of them indicated an interest in going ahead with the idea. While there, I was s'lown a copy of the new Gold Hill chamber brochure, pointing out the scenic sights and other merits of the area. The five-year-old daughter of Chamber President Richard Abbott, I am told, re marked after reading the brochure about her home town, "Gee, I'd like to go there someday." Colorful Ballots I hadn't been a resident of Oregon long enough to vote Friday, but I managed to participate to the extent of picking up the returns from the three Talent area precincts. I was intrigued to see the sample ballots with candi dates' slogans next to each name. This was something new to me. I wonder if candidates hire public relations firms to come up with a slogan designed to have a last minute psychological effect on the voters just as he gets reedy to mark his X. I also got a kick out of the requirement that political advertising include the name of whoever paid for the ad. Somehow I find it slightly hilarious to see an ad that proclaims "Joe Blow is the greatest guy in the world" and then in small type at the bottom "Paid for by Joe Blow." Annual Visitation for Future 1st Graders Set Eagle Point - The annual visitation day for all children who will be six years old on or before November 15, 1962 and who will be starting school in September has been scheduled for May 23 at the Eagle Point Grade school.

Hot dogs, potato salad, buttered green beans, peaches Mf ASURED NOT BY 3JT MEASURES I Nr or y J.H COLD ffa not sr laC '"''W A MATTER OF ylEWPOIT To some funeral directors, the knight-and-shield symbol of the Order is simply the emblem of one of the older and more highly regarded of the several profes sional organizations in the field. To members of the Order of the Golden Rule, the symbol is at once a challenge, a responsibility, and a source of justifiable pride. It is a challenge because the right to use the symbol demands the best that a man can offer. It is a responsibility because each mem ber must so conduct himself that he reflects credit not only upon himself, but upon all other members as well. It is a source of pride because each member knows how carefully he was screened before his application for membership was accepted. Most important of all, however, is the viewpoint of the general public your viewpoint! No matter where you may be, no matter what the time or circumstance, no matter how limited your means may be, the symbol is to you an assurance of service truly ". . . measured not by gold, but by the Golden Rule." It is with humble pride, and a spirit of rededication to the lofty principles of the Order that we announce now that we have again qualified, for another year, as the member of the Order in this community.

The city council last Mon day denied a petition to put the issue on the ballot. Eld- wood Hussey, perennial cam paigner for the name change, failed to word ti e heading of his petition properly and did not comply with other legal technicalities, City Attorney Laurence dishing said. Twenty registered voters must sign the petition and only 14 of the signers were legally accepted by the coun cil. Elections on the question of changing Cave Junction to Cave City have become some thing of a habit here over a period of years. The pro posal was defeated in 19S8 by 64 to 39. In other action, the council accepted the resignation of Watermaster A. J. Drews and appointed Herb Falkenhayen to the post. The resignation of Hal T. Ward from the plan ning commission also was accepted. Installation of mercury va por street lights was discuss ed but no action was taken, pending further studies. Eltctad President Williams - Shirley Sowell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Percy Sowell, Williams and Junior at Grants Pass High school, has been elected pres ident of Future Medical Work ers of America for the 1962- 1963 school year term.

Miss Geraldint Halbert is faculty advisor of the group. Juit 60 Mora Feet O'Brien - Only 60 feet re mains between work crews on the north and south portals of the Randolph Collier tun nel south of here. It is ex pected that topheadings may hole through and meet some time this week. Crafe-Callahan tunnel crews are working seven days a week around the clock on the job, as yet unaffected by the labor tie-up in much of North ern California. Round-Up DT Illinois Valley - Thursday from 2:20 to 3:30 p.m. will be round-up day for next fall's first graders in this area.
