Proposal
By JIM FRAKE
Mail Tribune Staff Writer
A proposal to establish a
pony track at the Jackson
county fairgrounds was re
viewed recently by the juve
nile advisory council at the
request of the county court.
The idea to have such a
track here originally was
presented several months ago,
but only recently has any
thing substantial developed.
Promoting the track Is the !
Southern Oregon -Pony club!
of Medford.
The club some time ago
made preliminary arrange
ments for using land at the
fairgrounds owned jointly by
the city of Medford and the
county. The particular area is
behind the county juvenile
detention home and. because
of this, has caused some con
cern over whether it was the
best place for all concerned.
Referred to Court
Earlier this summer the
county court learned of the
proposed location and re
ferred the matter to Circuit
Judge James M. Main, who
is also a juvenile court judge,
and the juvenile advisory
council which supervises the
detention home.
Mrs. Ben Day, chairman of
the council, notified Judge
Main in a letter recently that
the council, after considering
the matter, felt that "the
establishment of a pony track
at either of the locations pro
posed by the Pony club to the
fair board would seriously
damage the governmental
purposes of the detention
home."
In addition, the resolution
said, "The advisory council
wishes to make clear that it

Adviies Location
In an attempt to offer a
satisfactory place for the
track, the council advised
that the location of a track

The whole thing started
about five months ago when
the SOPC. consisting of be
tween 35 and 40 members, de
cided that the county needed
a pony track. The logical site,
according to spokesmen, was
a "weed patch" behind the
detention home at the fair-
grounds. The next thing was
to got permission to use the
land owned jointly by the
city of Medford and Jackson
county.

Haworth later met with ihe

track was even vaguely plot
