Singler Would Establish Group
To Promote Growth of City
A candidate for mavor of
Medford told the Medford
Chamber of Commerce Round
table Monday noon thai if he
is elected, he would establish
a progress and development
commission to promote the
city's growth and stimulate
the economy.
The speaker, William Sing
ler, one of three candidates
for mayor, began his talk by
complimenting the Roundtable
for i.s plan to provide a fo
rum for as many office-seekers
as possible before the No
vember election.
"The voters must be in
formed about the people who
are running for office," Sing
ler said.
He called this a "banner

year ' in city politics.
"Two years ago, several ol
the council seats were unop
posed, and only one person
ran for mayor. That was not
a healthy situation. But this
year, every seat or office is
contested, and that's good,"
he said.
His biography, Singler said,
is simply told. He is a life
long resident of Medford, is
married and has four chil
dren. He served a term on the
city park and recreation com
mission, and was elected to the
city council from Ward 1 two
years ago. He operates his
own business, Singler Auto
Supply, 221) tast Jackson st.
The speaker said he has
been criticized for "being too
young" (he is 34), and for not
having "enough experience"
to be qualified for the office
of mayor.
"My answer to that is that
some people are criticized for
being too old," he said, "and
others for having too much
experience."
Turning to the subject of
problems that confront the
city, Singler said that Med
lord is "on the threshold of a
new period of growth.
But in order to develop
properly, he stressed, Med
ford's economy must be a bal
anced one.

"We want to attract new
industry to the valley," the
candidate said, "the present
ones are not enough, but we
must be careful that what
ever new industries settle in
Medford are not of the kind
to worsen the air pollution
situation.". " . ' ....
He proposed the establish
ment of a progress and devel
opment commission, compos
ed of representatives from
various aspects of the commu
nity, to help direct and guide
the city through the crucial
years ahead.
A positive attitude needs
to be encouraged among Med
ford's citizens, he said. To
help promote that spirit,
Singler suggested the increas
ed use of public relations to
keep the community inform
ed on current problems and
what steps are being taken to
overcome them.
"If each citizen knew and
understood the situation in
Medford," Singler said, "he
could serve as a diplomat for
the city. He could talk Med
ford all the time, wherever
he went, in order to attract
new residents and businesses
to this area."
Roundtable Chairman Bill
Longmore said that next
week another candidate for
mayor -either Jimmy Dun
levy or Fred Robinson - will
present a talk to the group
on behalf of his candidacy for
Medford's top office.
Multi-Purpose Stadium Seen as Economic Asset
A 5
Editor's note: The Jackson
County Court recently recom
mended thai the county build
a ball park, seating between
2,500 and 3,000, with an ac
cent on youth. The Citiiens
Multi-Purpose Stadium com
mittee hat urged the court to
build a stadium, for use of
all groups, with an eventual
seating capacity, of approxi
mately 23,000. The following
article is the second in a se
ries of four explaining the
two plans. John Weisbrod.

Court Urged To
Clear Steelhead
Bill for Ballot
Salem-ttJPIi-An attorney for
the state urged the Oregon
Supreme Court Monday to
reverse" a lower court ruling,
and allow the steclhead mea
sure to remain on the Novem
ber ballot.
Attorneys for commercial
fish interests countered that
the measure is illegal,' and
must be stricken from the bal
lot. The measure would desig
nate steelhead a game fish in
Oregon. Commercial fisher
men say the proposal would
ruin their industry. -.:.
Argues for Measure
Asst. Atty. Gen. John J.
Tyncr Jr. argued for the in
itiative measure certified to
the ballot 'by Secretary of
State Howell Appling Jr.,
J who appealed a ruling by
Marion County Circuit Judge
George A. Jones that the in
itiative petition was invalid.
j Judge Jones had ruled that
! the petitions, filed by. Make
. Steelhead a Game Fish, Inc.,
I bore only 20,000 valid signa
tures - not enough to place
the issue before the voters.
Another 34,000 signatures
were ruled void because they
were obtained under a faulty
ballot title.
Wendell Wyatt, Astoria,
and John C. Beatty Jr., Port
land, attorneys for the Co
lumbia River Salmon and
Tuna Packers Association and
others, urged the high court
to affirm Judge Jones and
remove the steelhead measure
from the ballot.
They said that to "place
this measure on the ballot
will be to destroy an essential
safeguard of the legislative
process."
Tyner said statutory re
quirements that an initiative
petition contain the text of
the measure provide "ade
quate safeguards for the in
itiative," coupled with the
fact that the correct ballot
title appears in the voters
pamphlet.
The high court took the
arguments under advisement.
The Citizens Multi-Purpose
Stadium committee is . con
vinced that a multi-purpose
stadium in the county, big
enough to accommodate iarge
crowds, would have sufficient
use to warrant construction
and would be an economic as
set to the area.
Professional baseball is
ready to move into Medford
as soon as a playing facility
is available. There are those
who say that professional
baseball is "dead," but it drew
good crowds during the past

Dr. Taylor Named
President of College
The office of the Governor
of Guam recently announced
the appointment of Dr. Floyd
L. Taylor as president of the
college.-
Until last summer, Dr. Tay
lor was a professor at South
ern Oregon' college, Ashland.
Mrs. Taylor was dean of girls
at the Ashland High school.
The College of Guam is a
four-year liberal arts college
with a current student body
of more than 1.300 students,
drawn- primarily from the
U. S. Trust territory islands
and from Guam.
Dr. and Mrs. Taylor and
their children, Patty and Jim
my, now are living in Guam
where their address is College
of Guam, Agana, Guam.
The plan for a multi-purpose
stadium in Jackson coun
ty has been discussed in near
ly all of the larger cities of
the west coast during a search
for facts and fiuures necessary
to complete plans: It was re
ceived with enthusiasm every
where and the committee was
repeatedly told that a multi
purpose stadium is a necessary
part of the economic growth
of every community.
One large employer told the
committee that a properly
planned and properly man
aged stadium will play an
important ; part in bringing
industry .to .an .area because
it provides recreation for the
employees. -
Jackson county's geograph
ic locution makes it an ideal
stopover for big-time shows
traveling between the major
west coast cities. These shows
are anxious to have a place
to play during a stopover but
must have a facility 1 a r g e
enough to handle good-sized
crowds. The geographic loca
tion also makes it easy to se
cure events to come to the
area from the bigger cities.
San Franciscans Interested
Among those expressing an
interest in a local multi-purpose
stadium are the San
Francisco Forty-Nincrs and
the San Francisco Giants, both
of whom have offered assist
ance in planning and develop
ment. In spile of these economic
facts, which have been
brought to the attention of tiie
Jackson County Court, the
court has stated that it has
never seriously considered a
multi-purpose stadium. In oth
er words, the court refuses to
acquaint itself with one facet
of the area's possible econom
ic growth.
The multi-purpose stadium
committee maintains that if
county Amds are to be used
for a public stadium, or for.
a ball park or whatever you
wish to call it, it must be con
structed for the good of all,
without an accent on any cer
tain group.
Next: Plans for development.
