SEWER ISSUE
DISCUSSED AT
COUNCIL MEET
." The problem of improper
sewage existing on a section of
Main street, between the Big
Basin Lumber company and the
government canal, was the main
point of discussion at the city
council Monday night. The mat
ter was previously referred to
E. A. 1 nomas, cuy ciifc.
Henry Perkins, city attorney,
and Paul O. Landry, councilman
of ward number 4, at the meet
ing of the council on January
22. It was decided at that -time
that a new sewer should be im
.mliorf hv the ciiv because, of
the large amount of damage.
that has been causea in mu par
ticular section because of clog
ging and other trouble. r ;
Landry discussed the subject
with a majority of the property
owners concerned .with ' this
matter, and stated that most of
those he t a 1 k e d to objected
strenuously to the idea, on the
grounds that they had construct-
ed and paid for their own sewer
as a private interest, and while
it was in a satisfactory condi
tion, they were not in favor of
the city's plan to install a new
one and assess it against their
Drooerty.
' Mrs. A. A. Soule appeared
before the council on this ques
tion, and was represented by
Fred O. Small, attorney. Mrs.
Soule stated that the damage
was being caused by a defective
sewer located above her prop
erty, but that hers was still in
good condition, and felt that
there was no reason to con
struct a new one at tne present
time. According to Mrs. Soule,
an ordinance was passed in
1926, giving her permission to
install this sewer, and she has
had no trouble since that time.
Perkins then suggested that the
council look into the ordinance
which gave the city's authoriza
tion, and that further action
would be taken at the next reg
ular meeting.
Small suggested that a serious-
legal situation might arise
if Mrs. Soule was forced to pay
for such a project, if the dam
age is being caused elsewhere,
as long as her present sewage
system is serving her own pur
poses and is not in any way
hindering the health or sanitary
conditions. '
; City Engineer Thomas be
lieves that at least a section of
the sewer line should be re
placed, because some of the pipe
is ' four-inch and some six-inch,
which does" not make it of a
uniform diameter and thereby
" causes clogging and overflow
ing. ' O. D. Matthews, city
plumbing inspector, claimed that
most of the trouble is occurring
In cases where the pipe line is
not deep enough, and that the
problem which i now facing
the city may partially be rem
edied by lowering these pipes
to the proper depth.
The matter will be discussed
further at the next regular
meeting of the city council on
Tuesday, at which time the
-council will decide what action
should be taken. No meeting
will be held Monday because of
Lincoln's birthday, a legal holi
day. 17,802 Pounds of
Waste Fats Salvaged
Waste fats totaling 17,802
pounds were salvaged last
month in Klamath county.
Klamath meat dealers have co
operated well with housewives
in the salvage program, but
more . used fats are urgently
needed.
Homemakers should take
ttheir strained fats in tin con
tainers to their meat dealer
where they will receive four
'cents and two red points for
each pound turned in to the
butcher.
. Housewives are requested by
.jvirs. winnitrea ti. Uliien, home
demonstration agent, to take
iheir. salvaged, fats to. their
dealers on week days in order
to avoid the weekend rush,-, . :

This morning, E. E. Hambrick,

ath Falls, met with all of the
girls in KUHS. The purpose of
the meeting was to get the reac
tion of the girls to a "no man's
land," or girls' club to be held
once a week. He said that this
club would not interfere in any
way with the proposed teen-age
club which tne ! 1 .
students are try
ing to organize,
but would be
strictly a girls'
club, with coun
sellors hired by
the city.
The boys' club
building would
be used, and the
girls would have
access to it on
Thursday merits. isa.W 5s,
The building consists of three
rooms a large room for volley
ball, a small room for table
games, and a iarge club room
where the girls could just sit and
talk.
Available facilities for a jute
box, ping-pong, volley ball, shuf
fle board, and many other games
are located in the club rooms.

to further discuss plans with the
girls.
