tee, will assume office July 1.

Conforming with new by-
laws of the Medford Rotary
' club, in which a president
elect is selected one year be
fore he serves, Russ Jamison,
official of KMED radio and
television, was elected for the
1964-65 term beginning in

"Packages by Pegasus was
the title of a film shown at
Tuesday's luncheon meeting
by Harold Allen, San Fran
cisco, who heads the air serv
ice division of REA Express
for the Pacific Region.
The former American Rail
way Express entered into the
new fields of express by air,
Allen told Rotarians, and
combined services and facili
ties with those of 40 domestic
airlines. First air express
service was initialed in 1927.
Before showing the film,
Allen said that today REA

000 off-line communities with
express service. Everything
from machinery and tools to
fresh crab, flowers and blood
are transported by air today.
been approved by the county
engineer but to be on the safe
side regarding certain appar
ent weaknesses in the present !
structure, the court consulted
the structural engineer.
The ceiling construction
over the ground floor of the
auditorium is capable of sup
porting a live load of from
110 to 123 pounds per square
fool, Hoey wrote.
The uniform building code
requirement is 50 pounds.
The library requirement,
which refers to a much great
er load than is represented in
the county recorder's offices,
which are now over a portion
of the auditorium, is only 123
pounds, the report stated.
The court's plans are to en
large the auditorium by re
moving the obsolete, unused
rest rooms near the entrance
to the auditorium and by a
rearrangement of the stage.
Accoustical tile will be in
stalled and electric lighting
modernized.
Referring to the desired re
modeling of the district court
room, Hoey said he would
hcsiUle to recommend
moval of the column, which
obstructs the view, adding
that if it were removed
another type of support would
have to replace it.
The third item included In
the planned remodeling is
construction of a room in the
breezeway between the old
and the new court house
structures. This addition was
approved by the structural
engineer. v
It will not only add needed
space to the courthouse but
will provide a protection
against the cold air between
both structures whenever
doors are opened, County
Commissioner Don Faber em
phasized in a tour of the area.
