PACE TEN HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON Aui ITE1GI PARK TALKED BY COUNCIL Frank Bechtol, representative from a district in Mills addition, appeared before" the city council Monday night to see if some thing could be done about the city pane in me tvv uiuck uu Martin street. Complaints have been made by residents of this district that the city nas not been watering the lawn of the park. However, it was reported by City Engineer E. A. Thomas that the grounds were not being watered because it had not been possible to keep sprinkler heads on the spnnKiers. adoui kuu of them have been taken in the past 10 years, it was reported. The matter will be referred to the park board. Paving Considered The matter of paving the 400 block on Martin street was also brought up at this time. The residents of that block are will ing to pay cash for getting the stretch paved, it was said, and the matter was turned over to the city engineer who will make an estimate on the cost and re port back. ' " County Clerk Mae K." Short appeared at the meeting and re ported that envelopes are now being addressed and ballots are being made up to send to men in service in this country and -over seas for the fall election. She said that if filings for city bal lots were completed by the mid dle of September, city elections could be included on the same ballot with the county and state elections. Dance Unsatisfactory Police Chief Earl Heuvel re ported to the council that sever al unsatisfactory conditions had been, found at the Wednesday and Saturday night dances at the armory recently. The check ing of soft drink bottles, to pre vent their being taken onto the dance floor, was discontinued for a short time last Saturday night and this could present a menace to the crowds at the ar mory, Heuvel said. The com plaint was also made that the orchestra sometimes played for a time after one o'clock. It was suggested that perhaps soft drinks could be served in paper cups instead of bottles and so eliminate the necessity of checking the bottles. It was also asked that a civilian policeman be on duty at the armory to take care of any trouble among civil ians as the military police and shore patrol take care of its men. .. .. Roughing Urged Councilman A. H. ' Bussman recommended that the state highway commission be asked to rough the stretch of pavement on Oregon avenue from the city limits to Biehn street because of the many accidents that have taken place on that stretch of highway when the road is wet and slippery.

The service club will be similar to the one just opened by the ma rines.
