The center was opened Oct. 12, 1958, when Mayor John Snider presented the keys to the council. The building was part of a park warehouse and has been used to provide ed ucational, cultural and recrea tional activities for senior citizens. Use of the center has creased each year since the center was opened. More than 450 senior citiens use the cen ter regularly and attendance has grown from 1.725 to 3,500 during the past two years. There is a need for a larger and more adequate center where social and educational activities can be carried on, and which could be used as a central clearing house of in formation on housing, employ ment, nursing, medical care and help with personal prob lems. To show what such a center could be like, visitors will be taken on "guided lours" to the "Center of the Future." Russell Receives Accounting Certificate Kenneth A.

I W AS l.sl l'T'l . r..L A k, frrO' TILLH7T00 Water Supply In Past Year Good In Rogue-Umpqua Irrigators in the Rogue Umpqua watersheds generally had average water supplies during the 1962 irrigation sea son, according to W, T. Frost, Portland, snow survey super visor. Carry-over water in the reservoirs of the Talent and Medford Irrigation districts is good to excellent, also rein forcing the outlook for the Rogue River Valley Irrigation district, Frost reported. It may be necessary to release some water from Emigrant lake this winter, according to reports. Water year flow of the Umpqua and Rogue rivers has been 89 and 78 per cent of average, respectively. Good fall rains and a good buildup of the winter snowpack should ease minds of water users for next season, F'rost predicted. Adequate In Basin Although irrigation waler supplies were adequate in Klamath basin this year, 1962 flows were below estimates made last spring. A heavy spring snowpack was robbed by dry soil underneath, and did not produce the runoff forecasted, according to Frost's report. A normal season of irriga tion in Klamath county ir 1963 can be expected if above average fall rains precede the accumulation of a heavy win ter snowpack. For many eastern Oregon areas the water supply was just barely sufficient to al low irrigators to "squeak through" without serious crop damage. Frost said. Adequate water supplies for next year are greatly depend ent upon much above normal fall rains to prime watersheds, plus a mountain snowpack considerably heavier than the average, he said.
