Regional Roundup
by Cleve Twltchell
Mail Tribune Regional Editor
There have been some changes in our lineup of
news correspondents, and so we'd like to take this op
portunity to introduce two "new" members of the staff
to our readers. We put the word "new" in quotes be
cause one of the newcomers isn't really new to the
Mail Tribune at all. She served as a correspondent some
years ago and is now back with us. She's Alice Burnetlc
(Mrs. Ray) of Rt. 1. Box 388. Talent (phone 335-1892.
Mrs. Burnctte will be covering the Talent area for us
an area that is growing in importance in the Rogue
Valley, particularly with the recent formation of two new
districts, the Talent Rural Fire Protection district and the
South Talent Sanitary district. In addition to keeping
an eye on these two districts, she'll also be filling us in
on the developments in Talent's city government, par
- ticularly the progress of the city's new water program.
Mrs. Burnette has been a resident of the Talent area
since 1934.
Another recent addition to the staff is Mary Collcy,
who became our Central Point correspondent several
weeks ago. Mary is the wife of Bill Colley of Bill
Colley Real Estate in Central Point. She lives at 318
South Second St., and news items may be phoned to
her at 664-3183. In Central Point, she is taking on 0
big job, for it is probably the busiest and most im
portant territory in our regional page coverage area.
Scrivens Express Appreciation
From Velda Barr, our Prospect correspondent, comes
the following: o o
"Mr. and Mrs. Tom Scriven of Prospect wish to ex
press their appreciation to all of their many friends
and neighbors of Prospect who helped them in their
recent fire disaster, in which they lost all their be
longings. The people of Prospect really gave them a
helping hand. They are now living in a small cabin at
the Cascade Gorge. But before long they will be re
building and living again in their own home. In this
house fire, Mr. Scriven lost a valued gun collection,
which cannot be replaced. They had just remodeled and
enlarged the home that burned. They still have the
paymunts to meet on the home they lost, and with four
little boys that will be hard to do. But they thank God
no one was in the house at the time. If this fire had
happened at night while they were asleep it could
have been disastrous."
Another Arrest
On Phone Fraud
Grants Pass-William Bruce
Grant, 29. of Portland and
Salem, pleaded guilty in Jo
sephine county circuit court
here Friday to a charge of
p r o c u r ing communication
service by fraud.
He was placed on probation
for two years by Judge James
W. Crawford.
Grant, who was arrested by
Salem police Wednesday on
a warrant from Grants Pass,
was employed at the time of
tile offense by a Portland bas
ed magazine subscription firm
which figured in a similar
case earlier this month. The
court was advised that Grant
had set up a scheme to obtain
sales progress reports from
the Grants Pass area via long
distance telephone without
being charged for the service.
The case was investigated
by Grants Pass police and
agents of Pacific Northwest
Bell under a state law enact
ed In 1961 to cover this type
of fraud.
Highway Hearings
Slated This Week
In Jacksonville
Jacksonville - Residents of
the Jacksonville area this
week will be offered two op
portunities to voice their feel
ings about the state highway

for relocation of the Medford
Provolt highway through
Jacksonville.

Highway department en
gineering and right of way

roughly parallel to and south

present highway at about
Vine st. on the west side of
town and rejoining it at about
F st. on the northeast side of

Mail Tribune Correspondent
Eagle Point - "I would like
to see the highways clear
through our county planted
with two rows of trees and
our recreation hills restocked
with all types of nut trees
and berries," Charles C. Hoov
er announced when he gave
Redwood trees to youngsters
in the Eagle Point area re
cently. Hoover recalled the fun he
had picking hazel nuts, pecans
and other nuts when a boy
exploring hills. He went on to
note that "if the hills are
going to be used for recrea
tion they should have recrea
tion in them."
Hoover said he would like
to sec the blackberries and
huckleberries and other
hearty berries planted along
with the various nut trees in
the surrounding hills so all
youngsters and families can
take advantage of enjoying
them when they go into the
hills for recreation.
He would also like to see
an arboretum started where
people can view trees from all
over the world. He noted that
every day he is receiving let
ters from people from all
parts of the world offering to
exchange trees with him, and
it would be an ideal oppor
tunity for the starting of such
an arboretum. At the present
time, there is a two acre tract
in White City that has over
100 different varieties plant
ed, all doing well.
This project could be ac
complished in about a three
year period if the trees were
kept well mulched, he said.
This would simplify the wa
tering system and Hoover said
he would volunteer to buy
some of the trees to start it
off.
Hoover suggested that some
of the juveniles at ti.e deten
tion home and relief workers
or prisoners could help take
care of these trees along the
highways and in the hills for
the first three years, and
after that they would take
care of themselves.
He also volunteered his
.-cervices to cut and get starts
of the various trees and ber
ries for planting along the
roads and creeks and take
them to granges or farmers'
meetings. He noted that he
had a fast growing poplar tree
now that could be planted.
He also emphasized the
value of Willow treetr in the
pasture. They require very
little trimming as cattle cat
them and keep them shaped
level around the bottom, and
they make a beautiful tree as
well as a large shade tree
when older, he said.
Get Started
With the amount of timber
being cut, land being cleared
for subdivisions and other
purposes. Hoover suggested
the cities and game commis
sions should be starting their
program' of tree planting be
fore it gets too late. "I would
even like to see every road in
the county lined with trees."
Hoover said as he emphasized
that this program need not be
an expensive one unless one
has to have real expensive
trees to do it with.
There are countless num
bers of beautiful evergreen
that could be planted and
eared for and that would turn
this area into a beautiful,
scenic valley, letting the resi
dents enjoy their shade, as
well as beauty while keeping
the ground and land free
from erosion. The bare hills
east of Ashland where fires
have stripped the beauty of
the hills and others in the
valley just like it, were point
ed out as excellent places to
start the program.
PERMIT REQUIRED

has issued a warning that
starling loaay, April 1, any
one wishing to burn trash
