SEPTEMBER I. 1962 UPtown Medford (A Fanciful Forward Look) (From the Mai! Tribune of Sept. 6, 1972.) . When Medford received the "All American City" award earlier this ries of how it was earned. It all began about 10 the downtown area were becoming increasingly concerned with what they saw as encroaching "blight." There were stores vacent; business was being attracted to suburban shopping centers; parking was something of a problem; some firms had been forced out of business; others had them selves moved to the shopping centers, or to other out of town locations where access and parking were ample. COME efforts, to be combat this. Merchants along two under the aggressive and determined leadership of one woman, had undertaken one of Oregon's first city street tree programs, and it was ac knowledged far and wide as a model of its kind, and was widely copied. Others had remodeled their stores, inside and outside, and displayed merchandise attractively, instructed their employees in. effective service and in courtesy. For them it paid off. But, in too many cases, there was a defensive air of fear and hopelessness, and a disposition to ask for special favors. . "THEN, almost overnight, something happened. A new spirit of determination and confidence was born. The merchant groups started getting to gether. They decided that should be what they called themselves, and they organized "UPtown Medford, Inc.," a non-profit corporation devoted to self-help, mutual help, cooperation, beaulification, and a revivification of the core area. Landlords in the area were asked to join, and lease-rental rates were discussed freely. Money was subscribed, and a team of an arch itect, landscape architect, and city planning ex- Eert were retained to lay out a Grand Plan for (Ptown Medford. They did so, and produced a plan for an UP town section of Medford which caught the im agination, not only of local residents, but of citi zens throughout the state.

A plan was evolved, through the cooperation of the newly-created Department of Urban Af fairs of the federal government. It was pains takingly explained and detailed, and finally was put to the. vote of the people. Most of the ultimate financing would fall on UPtown Medford itself, but the credit of the city would be used in the initial stages. j ne vuiei aii liven THE REST is, of course, history.

Who would have thought it could have been accomplished, almost entirely through the crea tive and forward-looking endeavors of UPtown itself, in 10 short years.' h.A. When Life Begins When does life human life begin? This question has been debated for centuries, but the recent Finkbine abortion case has revived it, and it is again being debated strongly. Does life begin at the instant of conception? This is the view of some religions, including the Roman Catholic, Catholic teaching also is that it is immoral to use "unnatural" means to prevent conception. Does life begin when the unborn child quick ens in the womb? This is the view of the English common law, on which so much of our own juris prudence is based. QR DOES life begin at birth? Genesis 2:7 says: "God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Based on this, some faiths hold that soul-life begins with a baby's first breath, and not before. There is no "scientific" answer to this miz zling problem, so we all adhere to our own beliefs, whether they be based on religious teaching or on humanistic predilections. No amount of debate will achieve a consensus, any more than the medieval debates solved the problem of how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. E.A. year, it provoked memo years aero.

Klam imaginative design of "We Don't Want ANY Britain Short Of Space For College Seeking War Babies By PETER KNOX United Press International London - UIPD - Queues of students seeking admission to Britain's 23 universities are almost as long and slow-moving as the old wartime food lines. Educational authorities ad mit they are fighting a losing battle in their efforts to pro vide higher education for the ever increasing number of boys and girls seeking It. They confess, too, that things are due to get worse before they get better. Coming up now into the university age bracket are the children born when the sol diers came marching home from the 1939-45 war and be gan to raise families. The end of hostilities saw a bulge in the birth rate that has been straining British school fa cilities to near breaking point in recent years and now is threatening to do the same to the universities. 20,000 Places Short It is estimated that about 50,000 students have applied for the 30,000 places becom ing available in British uni versities this fall. Most of them were born in 1944, so thai a much higher ratio be tween students and places can be expected over the next three or four years. Unhappily for the students involved there are long delays before it is determined if they have won a university place, and only the luckiest ones get into the university of Ihe'r choice. Competition for openings is so keen that most students file applications for several uni versities in the hope they will hit the jackpot somewhere. So the actual number of applica tions now being dealt with by educational authorities is about 200,000. More brilliant students sometimes find themselves ac cepted by three or four uni versities, while others were more routine passes set turn ed down everywhere. This in creases the confusion. When the boys and girls wilh high est scholastic records make their choice, the vncancics they leave in the lists of the universities they do not ac cept then are offered to stu dents initially rejected. When the situation is final ly sorted out students from the north of England often find themselves heading for the south, and those from the south for the west, and so on. Central Office Planned Within the next two years it is planned to organize a system whereby all applica tions will be funnelled through a central office for all uni versities except Oxford and Cambridge. The latter two seats of learning, with roots reaching back to the 13th cen tury, maintain their own strict rules for entrance because they are the plum prizes sought after by most students. The new "centralized'' svs- tem, however, will still leave unresolved how to fit too many students into too few places. It will only make it easier to sort out the bright from the average. There actually are few weak students among the applicants because matriculation quali fications in this country are high, and those with no chance of succeeding are mostly weeded out early in their school careers. The financial problem is not a key one for most parents be cause virtually all students who qualify for a university place are entitled to a grant , from the government Grants from Government j Apart from scholarships , awarded for educational afoil j it y In open competition, grunts also are given on a means test Basis, under the means or ability-topay test, the child of parents in a low Income bracket might be wholly main MEDFORD MAIL Outside Interference" tained at a university. Chil dren of parents in succeeding ly higher brackets get assist ance on a succeedingly re duced scale. Official statistics show that over 80 per cent of the na tion's 100,000 students are aided by grants in one form or another. Educational authorities have various plans to handle the growing demand for places. By the 1970's there will be another six universities func tioning and the total number of students in attendance should be about 170,000. But for the next three or four years, Britain's education seeking "war babies" will still be queueing at the doors of higher learning - even as their mothers and fathers queued during the war, and for years afterward, for al most everything worth hav ing.

OREGON Russian Build-Up of Monroe Doctrine s Validity Questioned By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign Newt Analyst In the dark of after mid night in heavily guarded Cu ban ports, the Soviet Union rusnes a step ped u p pro gram to bol ster the re gime of Fidel Castro. Eyfr w i t n e s s re ports tell of R u i s J a n troops playing volley ball in V Mewsorn m 1 1 i tary in stallations outside Havana. And in Washington and other American capitals the argument goes on, whether, as Nikita Khrushchev said, the Monroe Doctrine is dead. In Managua, Nicaragua, a government spokesman de manded collective military ac tion against the Castro regime by members of the Organiza tion of American States. He added: "If the United States and the OAS fail to act, it means the Monroe Doctrine and the inter-American system are dead and the continued ex istence of the OAS is unjus tified." In Washington, Sen. Homer E. Capehart, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations com mittee, suggested that Cuba should be invaded to halt the flow of Communist aid, whe ther material or manpower. In April, 1961, President Kennedy told the American Society of Newspaper Editors: ". . .

Smokey The Bear To the Editor: A retired Master Sergeant called my at tention to a front page article dated Aug. 10 dealing with legislation to prohibit the use of mechanized vehicles on publicly owned forest lands, which would make a tres passer subject to arrest and prosecution. The undersigned claims his proportionate share in our Na tional Forests. Vote any member of the Oregon Legislature out of of fice who would pass such a law. Federal Judge Harold Me dina once said in a speech if we allow our rights to be whittled away bit by bit once they are lost we never get them back. An Arab proverb says if a camel gets his head under the tent the rest is sure to follow. Fifty one years ago as an adult I was with three other men who nailed one of the old type soldered cans to a tree with a Josephine County mining location in it. The can is still there. The tree appears to be a healthy tree and is growing so fast it would make a railroad tie if it did not die of old age. When the U.S. Forest Serv ice took over our National Forests they were not In the condition we find them today. The white man was well sat isfied with the timber. The ad ministrators of our forest have allowed nature's debris to col lect so that when it catches fire everything burns.

He was one of the Old Time Rangers. Now for Smokey The Bear. What Smokey needs is a new hat, a haircut and shave, and a public funeral.

Last week, the President spoke again of the Cuban situ ation. He told a news conference: "I think it would be a mis take to invade Cuba." The United States defended the Monroe Doctrine, the President said, by working to "isolate the Communist men ace in Cuba." By implication, then, the United States will continue to rely on collective measures of the OAS and will not inter vene militarily by itself. The words of the President, of Capehart and the Nicara guan spokesman are indica tors of the division of opin ion within the American hem isphere over the Cuban ques tion. This year Cuba will do about 80 per cent of all its business with Communist na tions. The steady flow of Soviet technicians, militaiy, agricul tural and industrial, suggests the extent to which these ex perts have taken over impor tant phases of Cuban life. The steady flow of Soviet and chartered British, Italian, West German, Greek and Nor wegian vessels also illustrates the weakness of the U. S. boy cott which never can become truly effective without mili tary measures - which for global reasons the United States wishes to avoid. M e a n w h lie, presumably, this statement of last Decem ber by the State Department still stands: est fire. His answer, "two, and we walked," and he added, now it takes an army. The Tribune article men tions soil erosion. Take a look at the thousands of acres that have been scalped by the U.S.F.S. with bulldozers. If this is not a setup for erosion what is it? They used to preach that the brush prevent ed erosion and floods by hold ing back the runoff from the snow. The mountain meadows that I have known in Jose phine county, Oregon, and Siskiyou county, California, have been taken over by ald ers, thereby eliminating much needed pasture for cattle.

D,)i ,hn use the words, "Only you can prevent forest fires" should use a little of the shoeleather express and learn how the mistakes of the Smokey The Bear men are catching up with the present. The public has had nothing to do with the buildup of debris in our forests. In closing I will say don't let the camel get his head under the tent. Fred D. Wilson Box 103 Happy Camp, Calif. Don't Give Up Hope To the Editor: Many vet erans are unaware of the fact that American Legion repre sentatives appeared before the House Committee on Veterans Affairs, which had been con ducting hearings on the op eration of the non-service-connected Public Law PL 86-211. The American Legion rec ommended that lhe pension law be improved In the fol lowing manner: "Restore the former pro visions of law which provided for 50 per cent withholding of a veteran s fwithnnt rienenH j ents) pension beginning with the 7th month of his hospital or domiciliary care, with the further provision that such withheld amounts be returned to the veteran upon his release from such care.

PERSONAL PREJUDICES Most people who talk about "conscience" don't realize that conscience is a capacity, and not a standard; the cannibal's conscience for instance, tells him it is "immoral" not to devour his enemy after battle. A person who feals com pelled to tell others about his past tins it still a little bit infatuated with them; confession can be as much a matter of pride at of peni tence. It is fruitless to look back upon our parents and grand parents and exclaim that they got along better in marriage than we do today; they got along better because they ex pected less, and we live in an age of "rising expectations," not only economically, but emotionally as well. Self-interest ia the be ginning, but it cannot be made the end, of a life; at Amiel observed a century ago: "Self-interest it but the turvival of the animal in us; humanity only begint for a man with telf-turrender." It seems plain to me that our personal liberties in America are more endanger ed by the rabid anti-Communists among us than by the small and impotent band of Communists here. History shows that whenever a group wants to "save" a nation from some threat, the self - styled saviors themselves become a greater threat, as in Germany.

Six others, in cluding a state policeman, are recovering from injuries that sent them to a hospital. Before the rioting ended, policemen had been pelted with rocks 3nd beer bottles, windows had been smashed, a life-guard tower had been de molished and signs uprooted D'nt Cnil,. ca.1 fl.a hnu,. baseball bats, axe handles, and lhe tnreat 0( Vargas to disperse the charging throngs. HOW DID it start? Whv rl' Hil fnrl9 Nobody seems to know. It apparently just blew up like a dust storm. TTOW DID it end? " That's even stranger. A dispatch from Seaside on Sunday said: "Police watched over a calm town here today after the charms of a ROCK AND ROLL COMBO proved the turning point in soothing a savage student mob. 'The tension eased shortly after the music began, and 1.000 youthful rioters ended a two-day spree tonight by twisting for hours on the beach in the light of several bonfires." HMMMMMMMMM.

Music has strange powers even strange kinds of music. HPHE DISTURBING part of it all is that Seaside wasn't the only scene of this weird modern frenzy. The dispatches tell us that in Hampton Beach, in staid old New Hampshire, 50 youths face charges ranging from drunkenness to assault and inciting a riot. In Ocean City, Maryland, 500 college students began to "get out of control." Police promptly ordered everybody under age 25 off the streets. In Schenectady, N.Y., large scale fighting broke out in a park and recreation area packed with Labor Day holi day throngs. An estimated 200 youths were involved in the fighting. UROM Seaside comes this A aftermath of the ruckus there: "Police Chief Yarmonchi said he believes the SEVER ITY OR LENIENCY of the court sentences following the rioting will determine whether or not such rioting reoccurs." What does he mean? SPARE THE ROD AND SPOIL THE CHILD? If so, he may not be too far from the truth.
