On the Air By ELEANOR WIESE Unfortunately the two most interesting shows today, po litically speaking at least, are scheduled opposite each oth er. Former Vice President Richard M. Nixon will be in terviewed on "Meet the Press" at 6 p.m. on KMED TV, and "Pollsters and Pol itics" will be carried on KBES-TV at the same time. Mr. Nixon will be ques tioned by newsmen regard ing his future political plans, win or lose, and his plans for California if elected governor. His opponent in the Califor j nia gubernatorial race, in cumbent Gov. Edmund G. "Pat" Brown, will be queried next week. A toss of a coin determined who came first. "Pollsters and Politics" is a special report on "Twen tieth Century" on the use of public opinion sampling by politicians as an important tool in determining voter preferences and reaction to key issues. Pollsters Dr. George Gallup, Elmo Roper, Louis Harris and others will show how polls are conduct ed. Director of the Bureau of the Census, Richard M. Scam mon, will explain how the size of the polling sample is decided. Winston Churchill's World War II memoirs are the basis of "The Valiant Years," start ing Monday at 6:30 p.m. on KMED-TV. a distinguished series new to Medford. British actor Richard Bur ton reads Churchill's words and Gary Merrill narrates the episodes which tell the story of the war from Churchill's viewpoint. Newsfilm and still photos are used to illustrate the series. Musical back grounds were composed by Richard Rodgers. The first program, "The Gathering Storm," chronicles the rearmament of Germany, Churchill's warnings about the Nazi prewar buildup and his appointment to the Cabi net in 1939 as First Lord of the Admiralty. Medford Council Defers Action on Paving Proposal When opposition deveolped to a paving project on Olwell Way and to a water main in stallation on Whittle ave., the Medford city council voted Thursday night to defer action of the proposals. A third proposal, involving the sale of sections of Blocks 44 and 45 in the city of Jack sonville, parts of the right ol way of the old Medford-Jack-sonville Railway, also was de ferred until the next regular meeting of the council on the motion of Councilman Donald Hansen. Sale of the property had been recommended by the city administration to R. E. and Frances L. Hirsch, Jackson ville. The move to defer action on i the Olwell Way paving proj , ect was due in part to voiced opposition at the meeting and i also to the stated reluctance of i several councilmen to pave just half a block. Signatures on the paving petition repre sented 66.67 per cent of abut ting property owners. A decision on the Whittle st. water main was put off until the next meeting when two Medford attorneys, Greg ory T. Horneckcr and Robert Dickey, representing opposing clients developed a conflict of fact. The council considered whether a group of buildings ; and North Riverside avc must at the corner of East Jackson ' be removed by Jan. 1, 1963, st. and North Riverside nvc, and a barn at Black Oak dr. and Walden Place, should be conisdered dangerous build ings and therefore require their removal. The group decided to order that the barn be boarded up and the vegetation around it be removed within 30 days. The buildings at East Jackson the council ordered. A request for a change of zone from single - family to limited commercial for a piece of property located east of Biddle rd. at the Interstate 5 interchange was referred back to the planning commission for further study. In other action, the council voted to: -Annex to the city two small parcels of property ly ing east of Foothills rd. in Fairview Terrace subdivision. -Annex to the city proper ty situated west of Kenyon ave., and north of Garfield st. -Pave Hillcrest rd. from Valley View dr. to Black Oak dr., and from Black Oak dr. to 120 feet east of the east line of Country Club Park sub division.
