Four Local Students Receive Degrees Four Medford students were in the list of 292 undergraduate and graduate candidates presented for degrees at the University of Oregon's first fall commence ment convocation last Friday. They were Sue Donna Doolen, master of arts, daughter of Mrs. Barbara S. Doolen, B12 W. Sec ond St.; Nancy A. Niedermeyer, bachelor of arts, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Niedermey er, 1014 Old Stage Road; Bonnie .lean Van Dyke, bachelor of science, daughter of Mrs. Naomi H. Van Dyke, 204 Brad- lord Way; and Joan Elizabeth r retwell, bachelor of arts. Dr. Roy E. Licuallen, chan cellor of the Oregon State Sys tem of Higher Education, gave the commencement address. The commencement was one of four which have been sched uled during the academic year in order to ease the load on the traditional June commence ment. The new arrangement, also, makes it possible for stu dents to receive degrees when they are earned without the tra ditional delay. Agreement Sought for Study Of Water, Sewage Problems The Jackson County Court Friday asked Ralph E. Roder ick, partner in Cornell, How land, Hayes and Merryfield, Corvallis, to draw up an engi neering agreement so the first half of a two-year Bear Creek Basin study on water and sew age problems could be started in January. The over-all study would cost an estimated $47,000, of which the county has budgeted $25,000 for the first fiscal year ending June 110. The study would cover the county from Ashland to Eagle Point and Gold Hill, County Judge Earl M. Miller had ex plained earlier. Delayed Because of Schedule The county judge explained the study has been delayed due to the heavy schedule of the Corvallis engineering firm and the weather. The court also hopes to start a study in the new calendar year for forma tion of a county - wide flood con trol and drainage district, Mil ler said. County Commissioner Edwin Taylor said the county should have an overall sewer system to serve the densely populated areas. Roderick replied this would be much less expensive than approaching the problem piecemeal. According to a brochure pre sented the County Court, the en gineering firm would develop a coordinated master plan provid ing domestic, municipal and in dustrial water service to the entire Bear Creek valley through a single central supply system. Would Include Review The study phase would include a general review of the existing water supply situation in the valley. This would mean a de termination of the population served by public water systems and those not now served, com pilation of data on present wa ter use in the valley, and evalu ation of the capabilities of all presently developed water sup ply sources. Preparation of estimated fu ture demands for water within the Bear Creek area would in clude projection of population growth, consideration of prob able trends in land use and wa ter use, and a summary of fu ture water requirements as they relate to development of a cen tral supply system. The investigation of potential sources of supply would cover Rogue River at the valley's north end, Rogue River at Cas cade Gorge, Rogue River at Lost Creek dam, the south fork of Rogue River, and further de velopment of Big Butte Springs. Other Areas Covered It would also cover Big Butte Creek, Cold Springs, water from the Talent Irrigation District, Applegate river and Elk Creek dam. A study of potential sources would cover all existing and proposed federal water projects in the area, a check on possi bilities of utilizing water now used for irrigation as a future source of supply when the irri eatrd land is taken nut of agri cultural production and placed in urban development. The rest of this phase would include all other potential sources which may be disclosed by field study, examination of topographic maps, aerial pho tographs or other methods. Will Make Recommendation The engineering firm also pro poses to recommend a source or combination of sources of water supply to serve the future val-j ley needs. It would prepare gen-1 eral plans for development of water source, transmission and ! storage facilities, in stages, to ' supply the area. j The trim would also suggest ! various administrative organiza- j tions or agency systems which might be utilized to implement the long-range water plan. I The firm would also develop a coordinated master plan of providing sewage collection and waste treatment facilities to; serve ' the valley. Procedure ! would be similiar to the water study section. j This section would include a j field and topographic features' study to establish the service areas for the various sewage collection mains and trunk lines. Cover Sewage Collection j A preliminary layout would cover a sewage collection sys tem capable of serving the en-i tire valley area. The firm would recommend sizes and general location of the proposed sewer j mains and trunk lines. I The firm would also prepare i preliminary plans for alternate ' locations and type of sewage treatment facilities to serve the study area. It would prepare estimated ! 1 rn 15 construction costs for the proposed sewage collection mains and trunk lines and for alternate plans for sewage treatment facilities. It would prepare a tentative schedule of stage construction which will result in development of the overall collection and treatment plants.

He was no longer a compara tive unknown following in the footsteps of his famous father. The 19-year-old crooner, making his start with the Tommy Dor- sey band that launched his fa ther s career, was a young man whose sensational kidnapping had put his name before people throughout the world. About 500 persons were on hand when young Sinatra walk ed on stage for his first per formance. They laughed at his first quip: "To think, I com plained before that one and one half hours was too much time between shows." In Los Angeles, three men ac cused of kidnapping Sinatra were behind bars in Hie county jail. All but a small amount of the ransom money had been recovered should be abolished. lloenck: An 04-year-old con vict, behind bars since 1809 for the slaying of a former teacher, was released from an Illinois prison after his niece in San Leandro, Calif, promised to take care of him. Richard Hocnck, who will become the responsi bility of California parole of ficials, walked out of prison and commented: "It's like being transferred to a new world. It's like a child's story book." Kisenhower: Former Presi dent Eisenhower and Mrs. Ei senhower arrived for their five month winter vacation at Palm Desert, Calif. About 100 per sons greeted the former presi dent when he arrived in a pri vate railroad car. Eisenhower denied he suggested Henry Cab ot Lodge as the GOP Presiden tial nominee.

Air Force and Army parachutists set a world record for mass free-fall with a plunge of al most eight miles in a jump at El Centro. They broke a Rus sian record set in 1961 by a nine man team. Morgue: The California Traf fic Safety Foundation made a year-long study and came up with this conclusion: Holiday revelers who mix drinking and driving are more likely to end up on a slab in the morgue than behind bars. The study showed that 53.8 of persons who died of accident injuries with in six hours of the accident had been drinking, and nearly 4.r per 4. would make no political speech es during his stay.
