12 A WEDNESDAY, SLFlEMBfc.il 18, 13 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON Regional Roundup by Clev Twiiehell Mail Tribune Regional Editor A small letter envelope recently arrived in Prospect ad dressed simply to "Postmaster, Prospect, Oregon." In it were some photo negatives and a short note, which read as follows: "Dear Sir: "I recently passed through Prospect as a parade was in progress and took a few snapshots. "Perhaps someone up there would like to use the nega tives enclosed. Would you be kind enough to see that this gets into the right hands." The letter was sent by Peter Palchcs of Sunnyvale, Calif. The parade to which he referred was, of course, the Prospect Hillbilly Jamboree, held Aug. 10. The pictures he took were quite good, so we decided to reproduce one of them, showing ono of the more spectacular entries in the parade. "There are still a few nice people left, aren't there?" com mented Velda Barr, Prospect correspondent, who sent the letter and negatives down to us. The Hunters Were in (he Wrong Place While hunters were out scouring the countryside for grouse last week, Mrs. Glann Rogers, our Tiller-Drew correspondent, watched one from a distance of 12 feet. The grouse thought it was hiding under a flowering quince bush, she said, having been chased there by a bantam hen with a brood of chicks. When the bird got over its fright, it boldly walked around the yard, feasting on the heads of dog fennel. Report From the Quarantine Station For the benefit of any valley residents who may be plan ning a southbound trip during the next few weeks, here is the latest information from the California quarantine station at Hornbrook on what can or can not be taken into that state. Any fruit or vegetable grown in Oregon can be taken in for personal use, we were told, EXCEPT cherries, walnuts with outside husks, yams and sweet potatoes. Citrus fruit (and this is something we didn't know before) CAN be taken in IF it has been grown in California or Arizona. We assume these "can" and "cant's" apply only to this time of year. They may change from month to month.

Recently a little girl riding her bicycle in this area fell in the path of a motorist and was extremely fortunate in being able to avoid an accident, said Jaycee Donald Lacy. The jaycees plan to contact county and city officials to see what can be done, he said. The committee will also in vestigate the possibility of a railroad crossing signal being installed at the Pine st. crossing. Lacy invited all young men between the ages of 21-35 to at tend the Jaycee meetings on Thursday nights at 8 p.m. Meet ings are held in the room above the laundromat and next door to the Central Point Colleen Hope studio.

Her topic will be A Month Behind the Iron Curtain." Arrangements for the guest speaker were made by Frank Sutcliffe, vice president and program chairman for the chamber. All members and other interested persons are urged to attend the no host luncheon and business meeting. Jack Cannon, chamber secre tary, reports having mailed 2,530 Chamber of Commerce brochures upon requests for in formation on the Gold Hill area. Employment Up In Josephine GRANTS PASS-Local farm harvest jobs during August push ed employment figures for Jose pine county, Glendale and Rogue River areas to this year's high, reported Don Sliffler, manager of the Grants ;'ass office of the State Employment Service. Out-of-Malers More significant than the rela tively low rate of insured un employment, however, said Stifflcr, is the fact that during the last week of August 55.7 per cent of the local claimants applying for benefits were from states other than Oregon. This would seem to indicate, he said, that the expanding local economy has absorbed a high per cent of the local workers but the in-migration of out-of-state workers is keeping the area's unemployment at its present level. Some Openings Manufacturing employ m e n t remained high during August. No further expansions are anti cipated, Stiffler said, but tem porary employees returning to school will create some job openings in woodworking and service industries. Available construction work ers exceeded the local demand but new housing continued strong. The city of Grants Pass issued 21 building permits worth a total of $126,000 during Au operation between the public and law enforcement agencies. Other guests for the evening were police officers Gene Pence and Foss Grcb. Moore gave a brief back ground of the police department in Eagle Point, and reminded the audience that no one is ex empt from the law. He explain ed the more important changes in the Motor Vehicle code for the state of Oregon and then opened the meeting for discus sion on this subject. There is always an increase in automobile and bicycle traffic during school time and the po lice department has asked the cooperation of all young people riding bicycles and driving cars to school in obeying all traffic laws, Moore said. He stated that the bicycle ro deo, conducted by the Jaycees, is a worthwhile project and ex pressed the hope that it will be continued in Eagie Point. Moore concluded by offering his aid and that of his officers to any citizen in the community who has a question or problem, regardless of how minor, and asked that all crimes be report ed and all evidence be preserved to enable the department to do its job better and with greater speed. Reunion Planned For Prospect Graduates PROSPECT All persons who attended Prospect schools be tween 1950 and 1955 will hold a reunion at the Rogue River lodge Saturday starting at 7 p.m. Dinner will be served at 8 p.m., followed by dancing. All who attended schools here dur ing those years are invited. Boundary Between Schools Changed TILLER At the school board meeting of District 15 Sept. 10, members decided to move the boundary line between the Days Creek Elementary school and the Tiller Elementary school to include more students for the latter school. This decision came about be cause of the disparity of stu dents in two of the rooms at Tiller; there being only three seventh graders but 18 first graders. Mrs. Howard Ward, first and second grade teacher, found herself with 31 small fry the first day of school. Due to this unusually large enrollment, another teacher has been hired. Mrs. Robert Squires assumed her duties as second grade teacher Friday, Sept. 13. She will also teach third grade social studies and physical edu cation for the fifth, sixth, sev enth, and eighth grade girls.
