NEALON Mail Tribune Table Rock Correspondent Digger Boost Than Expected v, If DONALD McGOVERN Rum For Mayor McGovern Files For EP Mayor Eagle Point Donald Mc Govern. Eagle Point eily councilman, has filed I i Ik pe tition as a candidate for may or of Eagle Point. McGovern has been on the council for seven years. Most recently he was appointed to fill the unexpired term of Ernest Gregg. McGovern is teaching in his 15th year as Industrial Arts Instructor for Eagle Point High school. He served four years as a volunteer fireman for Eagle Point, is a charter member of the E.P. Lions club, is past president of the Oregon Industrial Art asso ciation, and past president of the Eagle Point Classroom Teachers association. Shirley (Shy) Callaghan filed his petition for mayor earlier. Regional Calendar Gold Hill Monday, after school, Girl Scout troop 121 will meet.

Odd Fellows lodge 12!) will meet at IOOF hall. Sams Valley Saturday, fl:30 p.m., members of Sams Valley Grange will hold the first winter season politick dinner at the hall. Hosts will be Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Plwis ant and Mr. and Mrs. Herman Priem. The regular once a month business session will be held at 8 p.m. The present unusual weather here with several inches of rain , has halted harvest operations, which include pear picking and the digging of onions and potatoes which were in full swing when the rains came. If the wet weather continues much longer there will be losses to the growers of these crops. C. C. Hoover, the civic leader and man of many trees, breezed in last Monday to get some melons, and to try to explain why he and his wife high-tailed it out of the valley, flying back to the State of Kansas. The principal reason for the Hoovers' going to Kansas was to deliver several thousand cverygreen trees among the schools, which he said they were very enthusiastic over, and to visit relatives. One of the relatives is county commissioner, and gets S100 a month, which they think back there is big pay. Charley says he saw lartic areas of farm land as fine as any we have in this valley. We didn't like to hear him say that, and believe if he was there during harvest time he would change his mind. The young men, he says, arc working in town, and the old people arc operating the farms. They are making good, according to Charley, as they get a support price on the wheat they raise, and good pay for what they don't raise via the soil bank. Table Rock Ladios Elect The local Ladies Club held their October meeting Wednesday at the home of Mrs. Everett Brown. Officers elected for the next year, were: Mrs. E. W. Robinson, president; Mrs. Hobart Moore, vice president, and Mrs. Vernon Gebhard, secretary. Recently we received a telephone call from Mrs. Ivan Hatfield of Medford, who said she had read in Tablets that our folks on mother's side resided in Atlanta, Georgia on Peach Tree St. She said her folks lived in Atlanta, but the street at that time was called Peach Tree Lane. This was before Gen. Sherman's troops burned the city. She through she could better remember things that happened back in those days, because she was older than I. So we asked her what year she was born. When she said 1H84, we told her we had the best of her, since we were born in 1883. Then when we told her our birthday was March 2, she said we were only six months older. Seems funny that two people would be arguing over which was the oldest. We had a nice visit, since she knew the names of many people my folks often spoke of. Among them were the Cobbs. My uncle, Thomas Cobb Law, was named for the Cobbs. Feeling Well? Miss McGalliard, county health nurse, called Wednes day. The good lady said from reading Tablets she thought we must not be feeling very well. Bless her heart, she was right. Bill Bishop, and son, Mark, left Monday for their home in Bethel, Kansas, after a two weeks sojourn in the valley, where they visited relatives and friends and hunted deer in the mountains and in Eastern Oregon. Like many other hunters this season they failed to bring back any venison. Ernest Hamilton, son of the late Orville Hamilton, will be the manager of the Modoc and Klamath Or chards. He and his Mother expect to move into the new home recently completed on the Hamilton farm, ac cording to reports the Bert Pierce family will occupy the house to be vacated by the Hatniltons. Thought for the day Each home in America must undergo a moral awakening if we are going to subdue this crime wave.

Definite action was not taken by the board but the problem was seriously discussed and considered. Opinions expressed by board members and administrations showed them to be in favor of meeting with all local or ganizations, clubs and civic representatives of the entire district in the near future to determine the extent of com munity interest and work out futhcr detailed plans fur such activities. "Special Education" was se lected by members of the school board for the topic to be discussed and demonstrat ed to them at a meeting Nov. 15 at 7:30 p.m. prior to their regular board meeting. Sev eral possible topics for future meetings were presented lo the board by director Robert Work. Superintendent Glenn Hale announced that all school buses are now running at ca pacity load. "If all of the stu dents entitled to ride the buses in a couple of areas should decide lo use them, it could create a problem," he added. A statistical report on other schools in the valley and their policy on using the school buses as spectator buses was presented by the Eagle Point High School Principal Rick Traylor, who then made a rec ommendation that the board again endorses the same poli cy it has been following in the past. The policy so endorsed by the board limits the spectator bus use lo Iwo buses at any one lime to be used in the ; valley, with no travelling over the mountains, and restricts the use of school buses for spectator use during school hours for regular play off games. During Ihe discussion il was revealed that both spectator and chartered buses were well chaperoned with school policies and regulations being adhered to in both cases. I Principal Rick Traylor gave a brief report on his recent convention for secondary principals. In other action the board authorized the annexation of school property not in the city limits. This property lies adjacent to city property and part of the new primary school is located within the city limils and part out. This will provide city fire protec tion for the entire building.
