JQ SUNDAY. FEBRUARY 10. 1963 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEPFCRP. OREGON ; . . Bedford City Council Favors Extension of Earhart St., Other Road ... . a 0j ,nu. inf a Hivinit ank at Jackson I ' Medford Attorney Robert Grant appeared before the Medford city council Thurs day night on behalf of a pro posal to extend Earhart st. so direct access would be avail able between South Riverside and Central aves. The owner of Bruce Bauer Lumber company, Grant's client, was one of 31 persons signing a petition favoring the street extension. The petition has since been found to be in valid, since some of the sign ers do not reside or own prop erty within the proposed as sessment district for the im provement. City Manager Robert Duff reported to the council that the city had studied the mat ter and had worked out three proposals in connection with a crois street development be tween Riverside and Central aves. Another Croii Street One of the proposals iiv volves not only the extension of Earhart st. to form a cross street, but also the develop mcnl of another cross street at a location 350 feet south of the proposed Earhart st. ex tension. Duff said the planning com mission at its breakfast meet ing Thursday had informally favored the creation of both cross streets. On the motion of Council man Al Bradford, the council passed a resolution favoring the circulation of petitions calling for construction of . botli streets, perhaps on a combined assessment district basis. A square foot method of assessment, rather than the usual lineal or front foot meth od, also was aproved by the group. New Petition In order to implement the council's proposals, a new petition of property owners representing more than 50 per cent of the square footage In the streets involved must be filed with the city administra tion, Duff said. In other action, the council voted to: Approve a change of zone from single-family to multiple family for a rear lot at 1205 East Main st.

Dr. Mulling pointed out that many children are harm ed In speech development by unreasonable expectations on the part of relatives. Parents were reminded that national norms indicate that even a child of six might be expected in make errors In the nrtlcti laliim of certain letters. The use of direct speech drill is generally not advised I in most cases, Mulling said, since children rapidly become -'-v.i'.iUv? tmvnrd MTirareiits and often refuse to talk. Pleasant home speech activ ity in the form of rhymes, games, and songs usually yields the best results and harsh discipline often deters speech progress, the speaker said. The most effective disci pline in the hume or school is that which is fair, quiet, calm, consistent and understood by Girl Clings To Bus; Dragged Hall Mile Athol, Muss.-lt'PD-A girl es caped with only minor cuts and bruises Thursday when dragged a half mile while clutching the front bumper of a school bus.
