Mayor Millon Sleinmeli and I Recorder T r e a s u r e r Kerd I Jones are also running again. Al present, there is jusl one candidate for each posl. New candidates running for cily council are Mrs. Donald Meister, Rolan Washburn, : Ronald Kalisla and L. L. Mar tin Deadline for filing petitions COMPANY A 'I Regional by C'v Mail Tribune Serving as mayor of a small city can often be quite a different experience from holding the tame office in a larger municipality. Small town mayors usually don't have secretaries, engineering departments or administrative aides to help them. Their predicament poses a question, "Is being mayor of a small city rewarding work, o.' docs it Involve a lot of effort with little thanks?" With election time drawing near, and the office of mayor coming up for a vote in Just about every Rogue Valley city this November, we've started asking the above question of some of the valley's mayors, both those who are running for re-election and those who aren't. Phoenix Mayor Faye Carver's reply to the question is, "Some of each." "It takes a lot of time to be mayor," she said, "a lot more than anyone would expect. And it is a lot of work, because we don't have the administrative help to do things for us. We have to get things done ourselves." Willing lo Try Some Mora But as she nears the close of her first two-year term as mayor (it was preceded by four years on the city council), Miss Carver is prepared to try for another two years. Why? "My one reason," she said, "is that several things have been started, and two years aren't enough time to see them through." The several things really boil down to one major project she is interested in - the development of the area between the northbound and southbound streets that carry Highway 99 traffic. "I feel it should be made into a recrea tion area," she explained. The area has the natural re sources necessary for a park, including an abundance of water, and is "Jusl wailing" for someone to develop it. "I've found many people willing to help," she added. Tidbits A Happy Camp area resident called up the sports editor the other day to report that stcelhead fishing is real good on the Klamath River around Happy Camp. He said that Oakland and San Francisco papers had inquired concern ing the angling and that he thought "our local paper" ought to have the information too. Genevieve Briggs, our Wllderville correspondent, who lives on a ranch up in the hills near there, reports with the opening of hunting season she and her husband have their cows all lined up wearing signs reading, "This is a cow." Their ranch Is sort of like a battlefield during hunting season, Mrs. Briggs says. Prospect Resident Gets Report On Hong Kong Typhoon From Sister Prospect A first-hand re port on the force with which typhoon Wanda struck the Hong Kong area last month has been received by Sherman Poole of Prospect. The report came In a letter from Poole's sister, who is a teacher at the South China Training college In Hong Kong. The typhoon struck on Sept. 1 and 2. Following are portions of the letter: "Typhoon Wanda was real ly a horror. The latest report wc have is that there are more lhan 400 dead and no doubt the count will be much higher when it Is finally in. Many of Ihe dead are fisher folk who live In sampans. Some of the typhoon shelters failed to give the needed protection this lime. "Our campus looks a sorry mess.

We lost part of the roof of the dining room, a teach er's apartment roof, and the soy bean factory roof. The electric lines are a jangling mess requiring three or four days of labor yet to get them back to normal. "We have six large picture windows in our house. For tunately they arc still intact but il took some effort to keep liicm thAt way. You could jusl see Ihcm shake back and forth. We used closet doors, table leaves etc. to brace them on the Inside of the house. "That was one day every one worked as hard and as fast as Ihey could for several hours trying to keep things together. The catches on the front door would blow lose every few minutes' so we put the boys (ages 6, 8 and 10) against it to keep it shut until we got the catches wired. The water was coming in around the windows In streams, and under the door in practically a river. "The peak of It's fury was about ten In the morning and it was beginning to relax by one and we were ahl" to rear range (he furniture we had against the bracing for the windows. One of the windows in the boy's room went out, frame and all. but it was after Ihe wind had gone to the other side and tilings got no wetter in their room than the rest of the house. "I also must tell you about our boat. Usually there are about two hundred boats parked in the bay which is actually a typhoon shelter. Just alter (lie typhoon there were not more than 21 still alfoat. Of course many of the smaller ones, like ours, had been taken out and placed on higher ground, but il was sure a sight afterwards. There were about 150 cither sunk or broken to pieces. Cauied Tidal Wava "The typhoon struck at high tide and caused a tidal wave which about did away with the village of Shatin in the New Territories. Perhaps we will drive out tomorrow and look at it. "There have been two bless ings in connection with it cooler weather has resulted and the desperate waler situa tion in Hong Kong has been somewhat relieved by the heavy rains that almost al ways accompany a typhoon. "The report was IB inches in Hi hours. But we hope next time It doesn't hit direct, Il would be nicer lo have (hem only close enough to give Ihe needed rain. School was lo open today, but with no elec tricity and can ! pump water and all the other damage, it is delayed for another week " oyoa Eagle Point City Council Adopts . Revised Budget Eagle Point - No one show ed up to discuss or contest the newly revised Eagle Point city budget at a public hear ing Wednesday. Following a review of the new budget the council adopted the budget for the 1962-63 fiscal year. Leland Meyer, president of the council, and the city em ployees extended a big thank you to Jackson County As sessor, Thad Hatten for all of his time spent helping them with their budget problems. Following a release a few weeks ago showing a 42.1 millage rate for the City of Eagle Point, the councilmen and city employees went into immediate action to correct the error. In accordance with the city ordinance, the mill age rate cannot exceed 25 mills. A special meeting was call ed with the help of Mr. Hat ten. The budget was revised, reviewed by the council, post ed in the post office, city li brary, and Eagle Point High school on September 6, and a public hearing held Wednes day evening. The regular meeting of the Eagle Point council will con vene Tuesday, October 2, at 8 p.m. in the library room of the city hall.

MEDFORD, Applegate Valley Residents Training Future Guide Doqs Applegaie Valley When guide dogs in training go to the state fair, they go mo dern, ride the freeway up state, receive their red rib bons, and are home again the same night. Facilities are very limited at Salem for dogs to stay at the fair. "Doe" and "Ditto" are the golden retriever pups three months old which are bein'g trained in the 4-H program for future guide dogs for the blind by Mary Anne Cantrall and Fritz Ramsay. They did not go to the fair for exhibition, but to show in their obedience tests, and in competing with two other guide dog pups, received their awards, and returned home without incident. According to Fritz's father, Ed Ramsay, the dogs are trained to lie on the floor of the car when riding for their own protection in avoiding car windows and to prevent distraction of the driver. Mary Anne, a junior in Medford high school, remain ed in Salem for the duration of the fair, where she won three blue ribbons on her 4-H sheep, a yearling ewe, a ewe lamb, and a sheep entered in showmanship. This is the second year that Mary Anne and Fritz, who is a student at McLoughlin Jun ior High school, have enrolled in the 4-H guide dog training program sponsored by Guide Dogs for the Blind Founda tion at San Rafael, Calif. Last year they completed basic training of two other puppies, "Aubrey" and "An gus," which were returned to the foundation this summer to receive their training in traf-l fic. After that they must com- j plete several weeks of train-1 ing with the blind person who j is to receive them, then they will be "graduates." j Personalities Matched j Mary Anne's mother, Mrs. j Harlan Cantrall, explains that when a blind person receives a dog at the foundation free of charge that the dog's per sonality has been matched 1963 DODGE . . .

In other words an elderly lady would be given a quiet type of dog. "Doe" and "Ditto" arrived here in late July, and have mastered some basic com mands such as "sit," "come," "fetch," and "stay." Mrs. Dar rell Mitchell is leader of the guide dog program in this community. Instructions in raising the guide puppies are given in a booklet prepared by Clarence Pfaffenberger, vice president of the Guide Dog Foundation. It is pointed out that the Foundation finds 4-H young people invaluable in their care, training, and devotion to the dogs. Their work is done without remuneration. Central Point Lions Discuss Work Still Needed on Stadium Central Point - At a recent meeting of the Lions club of Central Point, Dr. Max Flow ers conducted the program stating that the month of October is membership month and that all members are asked to bring a guest to the Oct, 9 meeting. It Is hoped .the visitors may be able to become better ac quainted with the many and varied projects conducted and supported by the Lions club. A report was heard on the recent sale of light bulbs, conducted by both the Gold Hill and Central Point Lions clubs as a joint project. The total sale was $238.92, the entire amount to be ap plied to the stadium fund. The sight and blind raising proj ect realized the sum of $260. Cliff Ayres gave a report on the work yet to be done on the stadium, and on the roof, which it is hoped will be completed in time for the Medford game on Oct. 12.

Regional News Montague's Undergoing Montague - Twelve St. in Montague, from Scobie to Spiers sts., has been under going a renovation the past few weeks and is now ready for its final seal-coating. The project cost $5,880, the mon ies for the program being pro vided by gas lax funds from the State of California. The entire project includ ed surveying by state engi neers , grading and filling with a six-inch aggregate base. Last Tuesday the street received a coat of penetra tion oil, and as soon as it is dried out enough the seal coating will be applied. Before a city may proceed with a project of this nature, in using state gas tax monies, the city must have a street program before it is allowed the money. The streets chosen by the city for participating in the program must be designated as major access streets and receive the approval of the State. The $5,880 was appro priated from the 58 cent gas tax fund. In addition to the work on 12th Street, which entailed the grading, graveling and oiling of four blocks, a com necting street from 12th to 11th was oiled, as was one R7e Range Work Party Slated Tuesday Eagle Point-Anothcr work party will be- held Tuesday 5:30 p in. in the hopes of com pleting the building at the rifle range site.

Additional workers arc urgently needed to join in the completion of this project. Dw!$ LOW-PRICE FIELD Comp 0Xf Dirt GT 2-rJw rT INTRODUCING COMPACT G3 DART At last.
