Newspaper Page Text6 A District Requests City's Assistance To Correct Trouble The Rogue River Valley Irri gation District has requested the City of Medford to cooperate In correcting a flood problem along the Hopkins Canal from the Grandview area to McAn drews bridge. In a letter directed to City Manager Robert Duff, the dis trict argued that the city is re sponsible for work, material, and costs needed to correct the problem. The area was in a flood stage last Dec. 2 and inflicted minor damage to a nearby residence. The proposed project includes construction of a supplemental spillway at McAndrews Road and Bear Creek, and building up the bank along the north side of Hopkins Canal east of Biddle Road. It includes increasing the ca pacity of crossing under the ditch on the south side of Grand Avenue, and building the bank near the Johnson Street bridge. Installation of a 15-inch cul vert under the ditch at Roberts Road to take street water out of the canal also is requested. The letter stated in part: "The irrigation district feels that its basic responsibility is to main tain the Hopkins Canal to proper standards as an irrigation facil ity and that the district is not obligated to provide additional facilities to handle flood and storm water brought on by im provements In the City of Med ford." The letter suggested that the City of Medford work with the district in sharing financial, equipment rental, and man power. Medford City Attorney William Mansfield and Public Works Di rector Vernon Thorpe met with two representatives of the dis trict last week to discuss the problem. The cost of the project has not been determined. Family Council Idltor'i Netel The Fimlly Cmin ell consuls o( iudr.e, psycliU" trlKt.

Bernie must bo having a 27-year-itch and it'll ho fatal unless he finds the right cure. He's been married mat long to a beautiful, loving wife. Even as her in-laws, my wife and I respect and admire her. But Bernie fell for the flattery of a young secretary he met at a convention in Atlantic City. Ilo takes her dancing in night clubs, tells me he'd like to mar ry ller- . , i llcrnartl U. - I'm 5(1 but feel like 38. My wife Is the same age but might as well be 86 from the way she spends her time. I didn't realize how fast 1 was turning into an old fogey until I met Hence, who proved to mo that 1 was still light on my feet, still ready for new Ideas and adventures. My wife's big evenings consist of a walk around the block, warm milk, and early hedllme. That's for an old-age home, not (or me. The Council: Boys will be boys, and so will middle-aged men who are plagued with self doubts. The quickest way for them to feel like a boy again Is to (ind a girl again. And there are always girls around who are smart (and compassionate) enough to perform this little act of mercy, convince the old buck that the calendar lies, the mir ror cheats, the stethoscope and sphygmomanometer falsity. He's the pride of the draft board again. This Is the time for all good brothers and wives to get the guy to a guidance expert to translate what's hap pening into simple English: Is it a new marriaRO you want, Bernie? Or would you seme lor reassurance that old-age Is a long way off, that "life" is not passing you by? Mrs. U., con scientious as she is, will re quire some briefing so as to do her pari, both bv lolling her husband discuss his misgivings with her and by seizing upon opportunities to convince him of his attractiveness. Gradually his need to recapture his youth should recede. SUNDAY, DECEMBER 15, 13 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD.

Solid State Circuitry, has replaced the conventional use of vacuum tubes. Through Solid State Circuitry, Magnavox has developed an Instrument that exceeds all previous advancements in the re-creation of music. Only through this unique acoustical system can you achieve such a clear, undistorted sound, listen to Magnavox "Astro-Sonic" and you'll understand why more people buy Magnavox than any other make. What Is Solid State Circuitry? The conventional stereo has many vacuum tubes which create heat, sometimes become noisy and are the main cause of trouble. Most service calls and expensive repair bills are due to the wearing out and burning out of tubes. However, with Solid State Circuitry there are no vacuum tubes. These are replaced with non-vacuum tubes (transistors) that never burn out, become noisy or create heat. Does this new "Astro-Sonic" use more current than other stereos? The "Astro Sonic" transistorized 100 watt amplifier uses less than 60 watts of current about as much as one small light bulb. How many speakers does the "Astro-Sonic" have? Four, with the effectiveness of 22 speakers. Why? Because the two front firing 1000-cycle treble horns are equivalent to 20 10" cone type speakers in mid cycle and high cycle sound re production. Even the difficult tones of piano and percussion instruments are played back with a perfection that cone speakers can not attain. The two high efficiency 15" woofers at the side of the set were specially designed to handle the bass tones of the powerful amplifier; The placement and the power of these four speakers re-creates music to breathtaking perfection. The high and low notes are so perfectly separated, you feel as if you're in the front row of a magnifi cent concert hall. Has Magnavox improved the record player, too? Yes. Magnavox has been famous for years for the precision of their Micromatic record player. But now, in keeping with the powerful "Astro-Sonic" components, Magnavox has developed ihe Synchronistic automatic record player. It's not just the best-it's the only precision mechanism now made. Not just a claim, but a fact. It "plays" and changes records quietly and with loving tenderness. It doesn't damage them, wear them or scratch them. The pickup tracks at only 110 ounce touch.

Duncan (D-Ore.) has announced. The Water Resources Re search Act of 1964, one of the three most important conserva tion bills before the House this session, was reported from an executive session Thursday, and was sent to uie full Interior Committee for its earliest consideration. "This bill will be of particular help to the Fourth District," Duncan said. "In Southwestern Oregon only 137,041 acres of farm land out of a total farm area of 2,437,479 acres is cur rently able to be irrigated. We also have a continuing problem of water pollution." he added. Duncan said he had lone been worried about the future supply of fresh water in the entire state. "Oregonians tend to take their water supply for granted. We can no longer afford to do this as it is becoming more scarce and more polluted by the day, he said. Would Finance Research This bill, if enacted, would provide up to $950,000 for each state over the next 10 years to finance a research center to conduct investigations, experi ments and the training of scien tists in the fields of water and The center is to be located at of resources which affect water. the state's land grant college. "We should have had a similar bill many years ago. We can't afford to waste any more time in finding solutions for our water problems," the Congress man said. Duncan noted that the bill would probably be sent to the House this session. "The Interior Committee under the chairman ship of Wayne Aspinall is one of the finest of the House commit tees and has an outstanding rec ord this session, he pointed out, Of the three major conserva tion bills sent for Its consider ation this year, the Committee has reported two of them to the Floor and has only this wtiter bill left," he said. Duncan referred to the Public Land Laws Revision Commis sion Bill which was sent to the House this week and the Land and Water Conservation Fund bill which was noted from the Committee in November. The Committee has also reported 76 other bills to the Floor this session.
