The mission has been closed (or the past year and a half since it was unable to find a suitable building for its opera tion. Clarence Wilson, board presi dent, said that although the mission has been closed, suffi cient money has been received each month to meet monthly payments on the property. The property was purchased several years ago for $10,000. Finance Building Once the balance of money owed on the property is paid, the board will then be in a posi tion to finance a modest build ing, Wilson said. Wilson said the Gospel Mis sion has always operated as an arm of the church and will continue to do so. The Med ford Ministerial Association has pledged its support to the pres ent project. ? Persons wishing to donate money, materials or labor to assist in the building of the mission may write to Post Of fice Box 762, Medford, or con tact a member of the mission board or their church minister. Members of the board in ad dition to Wilson are Glenn Mc Cullough, vice president; Wil liam H. McKinley, secretary treasurer; Mrs. Grover Corum, J. A. Larson, Mrs. L. G. Case, and Wayne Ash, Trail.

They wrote the federal gov ernment for statistics regarding economic conditions and wea ther data. All this information was listed on file cards. Some Were Eliminated Immediately some of the towns were eliminated and with a list of 20 cities, they wrote physicians in each seeking med ical information and asked each how he felt about his town. The list was then narrowed to 11 cities and in 1960 the two doctors traveled about 5.000 miles visiting each. The cities were Fort Collins, Greeley and Grand Junction, Colo.; Chey enne, Wyo.; Idaho Falls, Poca tello, Twin Falls, and Boise, Idaho; Yakima, Wash., and Klamath Falls and Medford, Ore. With all the available infor mation about the 11 cities care fully listed on cards, a secret ballot was held. Voting were the two doctors and their wives. Out of a possible 16 points, Medford received 13, they said. Served In Navy Once the decision had been reached they didn't move here immediately. Dr. Dysart served two years in the U. S. Navy at the Naval Hospital, Camp Le jcune, N.C., leaving active duty ice at the hospital at Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville, Ala., for which he received an Army commendation medal.

He at tended Stanford Univer s i t y where he was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, graduating magna cum laude. He also attended medical school at the same uni versity and took his internship at King County Hospital and one-year medical residency at the University of Washington. He then spent three years at the Mayo Clinic on a fellowship in internal medicine. Dr. Dysart is a certified spe cialist in internal medicine and is a member of the American Rheumatism Association.

The Wednesday night gifts will be stockpiled at the Path finder clubhouse where mem bers will later combine them in baskets for Thanksgiving and Christmas giving. Distribu tion of the baskets will be done by the Pathfinder girls and boys. The Jackson County Red Cross chapter is coordinator for the local aid. program and names of recipients will be checked with them. Distribute Pamphlets Pathfinders also will dis tribute pamphlets to those an swering doorbells Wcdnesdav night entitled "A Treat for You." The pamphlets will point out the fact that many people today experience an inner sense of fear because of the threat of disaster, but that peace and security may be found through confidence in Christ.

Canada Seeking Project Assurance OTTAWA (UPI) External Affairs Minister Paul Martin says Canada will sign no Co lumbia River power treaty on the sale of downstream bene fits to the United States "until we can get an assurance that the price will make the project self-liquidating." Martin told the Commons that the problem was heing studied "day and night" by U.S. and Canadian experts so negotiating teams from the two countries can meet again either in Ottawa 1 or Washington. Martin added that close con-j sulfation was being maintained with the British Columbia gov ernment, j "The government of British Columbia seems quite satisfied; with the way the government is ' handling this matter," he said. 1 FAMED HOLLYWOOD producer Sam Goldwyn rarely failed to sign up an actor or writer he wanted under contract, but the late James Thurbcr proved too much for him. 'Til pay you five hundred a week," wired Goldwyn. "Sorry," wired back Thurber, "but Har old Ross, my boss at the New Yorker, has met tho increase." Goldwn raised the ante to a thousand, then fifteen hundred, and finally twenty-five hun dred, but each time got tho same reply: "Ross has met the increase." There followed a long interim of silence. Then one day Goldwyn tried again. This time his offer went down to fifteen hundred. Thurber wired back, "Sorry, but Ross has met the decrease.'1 A famous jockey had turned la the manuscript of hta auto biography, and tho publisher waa now deliberating over how many copies he should print.
