WEDNESDAY, Regional by Clev Mail Tribune B In our past few columns we have discussed several mayors of small Rogue valley cities who are running lor re-election this fall. We interviewed them in an effort to get an idea of what it is like to be mayor of a small city and to find out why they decided to seek additional terms. Today, perhaps it would be interesting to look at some city officials who are not running for re-election. The Go'd Hill city council will experience quite a turn i . 1 1 HEW flufffli ilij'U KIT DELOS WALKER ""e d ,u ,V'J " Workers, Local 136, of which he Is recording secretary, . Dufur is a physical lab tester at Ideal Cement company. His duties with the union often make it difficult for him to devote time to the city council. Dclos Walker, who is president of the council and on occasions has acted as mayor when Milton Stcinmctz was out of town, is stepping down because of the press of duties at Walkers' service station, a business he has owned for the past 23 years. Stanley Newnham, who was appointed to the council two years ago, also is step ping down because li is business demands more of his time than he feels he can spare for the city coun cil, lie is co-owner of Cal Ore Wholesale Building Materials in Mcdford. Ortie Ncwland, who was appointed to the council a few months ago and who served as both mayor and councilman some years ago, Is not running again be cause his future plans arc Indefinite. Owner of New land's garage for many years, he recently sold the business. Because his plans are up In the air at the moment he doesn't feel he can run for any city office. It goes without saying that all of these men have devoted quite a bit of time to the city of Gold Hill. We wouldn't be surprised if some of them are stepping down simply because they feel they have taken their turn at civic duty and arc entitled to retire and let someone else work for a while. If this Is the way they feel, we sympathize completely, especially after listening to those mayors talk about the many unnoticed hours of work their councils put in. Half of Siskiyou County Residents Take Vaccine Yrcka - The Subin oral polio vaccine was taken by approximately 15,000 persons throughout Siskiyou county at recent clinics. This figure represents slightly less than half of the county's population. Dr. F. W. Martin, county medical offi cer, noted that a 70 per cent turnout is needed to achieve "muss elimination" of polio. The 15,000 figure was still incomplete, however, and health officials hoped that further data coining in from N.

We asked our Gold Hill correspondent, Mary Kell, why the other four are not running again. In general, she indicated, the four have other activities which they feel would make it difficult for them to continue on the council. Specifically. Kendal Du- fur, who is retiring after has a problem involving a conflict in meeting nights between the council and the KENDAL DUFUR I h c county's outlying com munities plus turnout at a make-up clinic last week would increase the percen tage. Turnout in general was bet ter in the southern part of Siskiyou county than in the northern part. Health officials theorized that recent clinics held in Oregon might hnve had on effect in reducing northern county turnout. In general 11 was believed that recent publicity concern ing the Type III Sabin vaccine probably held the turnout down as well. Type 1 was given at the recent clinics.
