Completion of New
Convalescent Center
Scheduled in June
VafcP.Main Planned
From Barneburg Hill
To Stewart Avenue
MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON
Complelion of the new 100
bed Hawthorne Convalescent
and Rehabilitation Center is
expected in two weeks, Bill
Brooks, contractor and presi
dent of the development firm,
the Western Convalescent
Foundation, has announced.
The $600,000 hospital at 62S
Stevens ave. will be ready for
patient occupancy during the
first week of June, with a
series of open house tours
planned for professional
groups as well as the public
before its official opening.
Construction of the con
valescent hospital was started
last November after a survey
of the Rogue valley indicated
a need for convalescent and
rehabilitation facilities,
Brooks said.
The one-story building of
redwood siding and brick is
built in the form of an X with
the lobby and administrative
offices in the center, and a
screened garden and lawn
area at the rear of the build
ing. Technical Facilities
Its technical facilities in
clude an extensive physical
therapy department, a medical
laboratory, and an x-ray room.
Other features are piped-in
oxygen, air conditioning and
electronic air filtering, dining
room, library and social areas.
The new hospital is equipped
to meet the requirements of
most cases other than surgical
and obstetrical, according to
the Western Convalescent
Foundation. Due to its special
ization, it will operate with
considerably lower rates than
an average general hospital,
but will maintain high nursing
standards. Patients will be ad
mitted and treated under the
direction of local physicians.
Portland School
Board OKs Budget
Portland -IIIP0- The Port
land School Board has ap
proved a 19(12-63 budget of
more than $37 million, includ
ing about $90,000 to start
plans for a new southwest
area high school.
The budget must go before
the Multnomah County Tax
Supervising and Conservation
Commission before it is final
ly adopted.
Also discussed were com
munity prospects for Portland
and vicinity. Stale Superin
tendent of Public Instruction
Leon Minear said he planned
to call a meeting of Multno
mah, Claskamas and Washing
ton county officials lo discuss
possibility of a tri-county com
munity college.
Mysterious Shootings
Unnerve Community
Walla Walla-IUPIl-Life has been pretty uncertain the past
few months for a resident of the Dixie-Dry Creek area of Hie
Blue Mountains cast of here. His neighbors, sharing his appre
hension have asked for additional law enforcement protection.
John Tracy, 59, has lived in fear since last October when
he began dodging bullets from the gun of an unknown as
sailant and receiving threatening telephone calls.
Tracy, who lives witli his brother Martin on a farm
near here, has twice been wounded in the leg and on one
occasion went into hiding for a hrief period.
Other residents of the Dixie-Dry Creek area complain
that their region was rapidly becoming one of "(rayed"
nerves."
They claimed only one deputy sheriff had been working
on the case.
Howard Reser. chairman of Ihe county commissioners,
said, "if the sheriff needs an emergency appropriation, we'll
go along with it."
Meanwhile, Ihe shooting has continued and apprehension
mounts in the little community.
The Medford water com
mission has authorized Med
ford Water Superintendent
Robert L. Lee to proceed with
the design and acquisition of
right of way for installation of
a 24-inch water main from
Barneburg Hill to Stewart
ave. via uarueia si.
Funds for the installation
have been allocated in the de
partment's 1962 - 63 fiscal
budget, Lee said, and tenta
tive plans are to call for bids
and let the contract by late
summer this year.
This would allow for com
pletion of the project by the
summer of 1963 so it would
be available to provide im
proved water pressures for
heavy summer usage, Lee not
ed. Result of Studies
The decision to go ahead
with the project comes as a
result of two studies of Med
ford's water distribution sys
tem. The first was completed
in 1947, and on the basis of
it an extensive feeder main
system was constructed.
The second report was com
piled this year by Cornell,
Howland, Hayes and Merry
field, consulting engineers,
and was recently presented to
the water commission.
The latter study indicates
storage capacity in the water
system is at present dificient
by 5 million gallons. It also
indicates that by 1966, the
distribution storage capacity
should be 23.6 million, or
about 10 million gallons more
than the present capacity.
Three Requirements
The storage needs of the
Medford water system, accord
ing to the report, are made
up from three requirements:
1. The storage used for
meeting the peak demand.
2. The reserve storage for
extinguishing of a major fire.
3. Sufficient emergency
storage to meet the needs of
the system on a reduced de
mand basis In the event of
a partial failure of the sup
ply system.
Among the conclusions of
the study is the opinion that
the storage to be constructed
in connection with the plan
ned future water supply from
Hie Rogue river will be suf
ficient until tle new supply
becomes Ihe principle source
of water for Medford. When
that will occur is not known
since the need is premised on
expanded population growth
within the area.
Effective Location
Another conclusion from
the study is that the most
effective location for the ad
ditional storage facilities
would be in the vicinity of
Dark Hollow rd. near its in
tersection with South Stage
rd. Estimated cost of the pro-

Components Plant
Slated at Portland
Portland - HOT - Plans for
an aircraft components manu
facturing plant here have
been disclosed by the firm
which recent ly acquired con
trol of Iron Fireman Com
pany. The proposed 2.M1.000
square foot plant would be
located at an industrial tract
near I he Portland airport.
Final approval is expected
nexl week at a meeting of the
Electronic Specially Co. board
of director?. The Los Angeles
firm recently acquired control
of Iron Fireman. A spokes
man indicated the firm had
the plant in mind before the
merger with Iron Fireman
was completed.
posed 10 million gallon ca
pacity reservoir, including
Ihe transmission line from the
feeder main to the reservoir,
is $603,300.
The study indicates that the
existing distribution system is
not capable of supplying suf
ficient water to fill the pro
posed reservoir at the Dark
Hollow site during the off-
peak demand period.
To meet this deficiency, en
gineers recommended con
struction of a 24-inch feeder
main from Barneburg Hill to
Stewart ave., and that the
main be installed prior to con
struction of the reservoir.
Estimated cost of this project
is $412,360.
At future meetings, the wa
ter commission will consider
the plan to correct the de
ficiency in the system's dis
tribution storage capacity. It
will formulate plans for fi
nancing the project and will
establish a tentative schedule
for projected reservoir construction.
Morse Foreign Aid
Amendments Voted
Washington - I) - Four
amendments by Oregon Sen.
Wayne Morse were among
changes made in the $4.6 bil
lion foreign aid bill before it
was approved Tuesday by the
Senate Foreign Relations com
mittee. One Morse amendment was
added to the extensively dis
cussed section of the bill that
would suspend foreign aid for
countries that seize American
property without taking steps
toward fair compensation. The
Morse amendment provides
arbitration as alternative
means of settling the dispute.
Another Morse change says
funds for the Latin American
Alliance for Progress after
1963 will be allocated only for
loans, instead of loans and
grants.
A third Morse amendment
calls for maintenance of aid
to India at present levels. The
final change by the Oregon
Democrat cut President Ken
nedy's request for contingency
funds from $400 million to
$300 million.
The final foreign aid meas
ure was approved by the com
mittee 14-3.

LEANING TOWER Looking like the famous Leaning Tow

is to be called "Landmark Tower" and will have 200 hotel
rooms, a rcsturant and sky bar and will be visible for a
