MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON FRIDAY. MARCH 8. 1963 Request Not to Pave Medford Street Denied by City Council A request not to pave 01 well Way was denied by the Medford city council last night. Residents along the street had petitioned the city for paving. After the project was Spray Materials Noted for Pear Buds Pear buds have now devel oped in some of the early or chards to the point where the more caustic dormant sprays can no longer be applied, ac cording to C. B. Cordy, coun ty extension agent. When the bud scales have fallen from some of the buds, it would be too late to use the lime sulfur-oil combination, he said. After the bud scales fall, but while the clusters are still tight, the following spray materials are suggested for use by Dr. Pete Westigard, entomologist, Southern Ore gon Experiment station and Cordy: Five gallons superior oil, plus either five pounds of 25 per cent Parathion or 2V4 pounds 50 per cent Diarinon per acre could be used in air blast sprayers. In hose rigs this would be one gallon of superior oil plus either one pound 25 per cent Parathion or one-half pound 50 per cent Diazinon per 100 gallons. These are suggested for use as an emergency measure and with practically no back ground of information regard ing resulting injury, Cordy noted. They would give effec tive insect control. The wettable powders or water suspensions should be used in preference to emulsi fiable forms in the advanced bud stage as the emulsifiable forms are more apt to cause injury, he noted. Parathion has higher mammalian toxic ity than Diazinon but label cautions should be observed with both materials, especial ly when mixed with oil as the mixture is more potent, Cordy noted. the bible D SPEAKS n to you n Sunday, 9:00 a.m. K-SHA-860ke "Th Christian Command to Lovt" authorized bids were opened last November, and were ap proximately 10 per cent above the estimated cost. The city rejected the bid and plans to readvertse the project early next month. Last month the city receiv ed a petition from two of the property owners who had signed the original petition, asking their names be with drawn. With the withdrawal of the signatures, those re maining would represent 20 per cent of the abutting prop erty. Oppose Withdrawing It was explained that the council opposes withdrawing signatures from petitions that have been acted on, because of the expense already incur red by the city. The council denied the request, and the call for bids on the project will proceed as planned. In other action, the council approved a report on the Val ley Aviation Inc., lease at the Medford municipal airport. In a committee report, it was agreed that the operating lease of the firm be extended for two years until Jan. 1, 1965, and that prior to that date it be relocated into per manent facilities on the air port, providing for adequate building and space for opera tion. Rental rate was listed at $600 per year and that the city re-enter into an agree ment with the company for tie-down administration. Other Council Action Other action taken by the council included: Approving the sale of property to Wendell Sessions of a triangular area between his used car lot and 10th st. for $500. Authorizing negotiations for purchase of a small tri angular parcel of land ap proximately 45 by 125 feet between the Earhart property purchased by the city for a park and the freeway right-of-way. Amending the building code to permit a rear door on the property of 1256 South Riverside ave. which abuts on the Southern Pacific right-of-way. Approving city engineer ing department plans for wid ening Ivy st. between Eighth and Ninth sts. which would permit diagonal parking on the east side of the street. Spaces for 36 cars would be provided. Qualifies to Bid " Qualifying Enloe Elec tric Inc., 3704 South Pacific highway, to bid on city projects. Rejecting a single bid for a digester sludge mixer and heat exchanger at the sewage treatment plant. Accepting the Whittle ave. water main project com pleted by M. Lininger and Son Inc. Approving plans and spe cifications for the Jackson park diving pool. The pool, to be 34 by 40 feet, will be west of the park's swimming pool. It will be 13 feet deep at the drain and the two diving boards, at 1 and 3 meters, will be according to regulations so may be used for official competition. It will be equipped with underwater lights as required by law. The entire area will be fenced. Little mechanical work will be needed for the project, since the present plant at the park is large enough to accommodate all of the swimming pools there. Also discussed were a re quest of the state highway de partment by the council for a survey of the intersection of Ninth st. and Central ave. A petition, requesting a signal for the intersection, was sub mitted at the last meeting. Two other intersecions are being studied for traffic sig nals in addition to the one re quested Fifth st. and Cen tral ave. and Sixth st. and Riverside ave. Estimated cost of the Ninth st.-Central ave. traffic signal is $3,500, of which one half would be paid by the state. Maintenance of the signal is paid by the city.
