NEALON Mail Tribune Tabla Rock Correspondent Firemen Plan Party For Children in CP Central Point-Tlie eighteen volunteer firemen of the Cen tral Point fire department will play host to the children of the firemen Dec. 10 in the fire hall. Santa Claus and his rein deer will be on hand to assist in the entertainment. Follow ing the Christmas party the youngsters will he given a ride home on the fire truck. The usually clear and shining Rogue river got on the rampage last Sunday following several hours of a heavy downpour of rain. Damage to low lying farms along the river was quite extensive. Several miles of fence were torn down and covered with trash and sand. In some places holes were swirled out by the swift, running water, and logs and debris were deposited on fields and pastures. The flood waters north of Bybee bridge did not come quite as far up the highway as In 1955. At that time, the Bill Bishop family had their car stalled in deep water and had to pack their young sters out. Several people went down to meet them as. they came to a safe landing on dry land. We remember hearing Mrs. Bishop say: "Fools venture in where angels fear to tread," as she tried to hold her skirt above the muddy waters. With the skirts they weare now, she would have been already prepared for high water. A. C. Allen Sr. who has lived for many years on the bank of the beautiful Rogue, and at one time slept while the swirling water gurgle under his bed, came near moving out Saturday night, when he discovered the water lacked about an inch of coming under his door. A. C. has a lot of endurance, but it seems he is soften ing up a bit. Some apprehension was caused here Sunday morning when it was reported that Everett Brown, the ditch walker, was missing. It developed that Brown had gone to the head of the ditch to remove the check boards, and after trying for some time to remove them, gave it up and started for home, and was met by Mr. Rowell, who had started to search for him. We learned from Mrs. Floyd Charley that the home recently built by Mr. and Mrs. Leland Charley on the bank of Little Butte creek was badly damaged by Sun day's high water. The interior of the house and furni ture was wrecked, including a $1,500 piano which sailed out a picture window and went down toward the coast. Christmas Meeting Planned The Table Rock Ladies club will hold their Christmas meeting, Dec. 12, at the home of Mrs. Ernest Smith at 1:30 p.m. with Mrs. Frank Myers assisting. The usual exchange of gifts not exceeding 50 cents will be held. The Roy Vincent family are at present living with relatives at the Aubrey Taylor home.-Their home was flooded out in Eagle Point. v Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dunn, returned Monday from a trip to the Bay Area in California where they visited over the week end with relatives at the Dean Inglis home. Some 30 members of the Central Point Presbyterian church circle held their installation of officers Tues day at the home of Mrs. Orville Hamilton, following a noon luncheon. Mall Tribuna Correspondents Meet ' We attended the meeting of the Regional Mall Tribune correspondents Wednesday at North's Chuck Wagon In Medford. There we met a bevy of chatty, in telligent looking female writers, and one male, a Mr. Day of the Trail area. While we males were in the minority, we weren't dumbfounded, nor exactly smoth ered. All in all, it was a delightful meeting where we learned about the ups and downs of the reporters, and also of the big shots, where they put together and grind out the paper, which at press time, they tell us, is a madhouse. ' During the question and answer it developed that all reporters arc keen to get the news right and exactly as it happens. Since we know that Clcve, our boss, has a sharp ax, we will sign otf. Thought for the Day: Go through the M.T. plant and see how many channels, how many hands and how many gadgets the news goes through from the time it happens until the time it gets to you. You will wonder that there are no more mistakes than there are.

Central Point Councilmen Sign Doe Petition By MARY ALICE BRUSHA Mail Tribune Correspondent Central Point Mayor Free man Mason and members of the Central Point City Coun cil were the first to sign a pe tition being circulated by the Central Point Sportsmen's club seeking an end to killing of doe deer.

Applications for liquor per mits by Benjamin Anderson of Economy Market, Everett Faber Supermarket and Paul sen and Gates Supermarket were approved by the council. Christmas Tree The council approved Councilman Bill Saxbury's suggestion that the city's Christmas tree be placed on the lot across the street from Alexander's Hardware store. Councilman Ayres noted that in the past the tree had been erected in the street and that the influx of traffic from the new highway makes that site more of a hazard than before. A bid of $410 was accepted by the council on the 1958 former police car. The bid was made by Gary Finley, 136 Glen way.
