Added Funds Asked By
Recreation Department
A request from the recreation
department for an over-tho-bud-get
appropriation was greeted
with wide discussion and varied
opinion among the city council
members at their first meeting
of the new year held last night.
E. E. Hambrick, recreation
director, presented his case ex
plaining that more money is
needed to maintain the Victory
Basketball league.
"Last year we had eight
teams," Hambrick said, "but
this year we have 18." Funds
allotted for basketball this
year were based on expendi
tures of last season. The recre
ation needs a minimum of $360,
more to continue its basketball
activities, Hambrick stressed.
Only $278 was budgeted for
this purpose.
In answer to a question by
Councilman Pau' " andry,
Hambrick sai " J main
expense is i- .. i ame of
ficials, who .;eive $2.50 per
game against .he standard $7.50
paid in school games.
The total cost for maintain
ing the league will be $634.80,
Hambrick estimated.
Greeted With Sighs
Hambrick's request was greet
ed with sighs of resignation from
the council as it decided to con
fer with the budget committee
to find out where the money
could come from with a report
scheduled next Monday. There
is money in the recreation fund
but the question concerns the
budget. In the meantime. Ham-
Morse Wants
Colleges To
Run All Year
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8 (jip)
Colleges would operate the year
around and "much longer hours
each day" under a proposal ad
vanced today by Senator Morse
(R-Ore.)
He offered it as one way to
meet the problem of over
crowding by veterans, wnose
Uncle Sam is footing their tui
tion bill.
Morse made the suggestion in
an interview' in which he said
the administration's handling of
veterans housing at colleges "is
a disgraceful record constituting
bad faith."
The Oregon senator is a form
, ex faculty member of the Uni
versities OI VVlSCUDSlIl HUQ IU1U-
nesota and served a term as dean
of the University of Oregon's law
school.
Not Alarmed
But another ex-college pro-
lessor, unairman Albert u.
Thomas (D-Utah) of the senate
' military committee, saw nothing
to get aiarmea aDout in tne
hordes of college-bound veterans.
"They'll adjust to it," Thomas
told a reporter, referring both
to the colleges' efforts to make
room, and to tb.e would-be stu-
flonte' nlana 4 n man nut a miiHa
they can handle.
Thomas, once a political
science professor at the Uni-
Tersity ot utan and a visiting
professor at the University of
California, said:
"Some students will find they
have attempted too much and
will drop out Some colleges
wnicn nave naa small enroll'
ments have never tried very
bard to handle more they'll
xina tney can.
Youth Draws
Life Sentence
VALE, Ore., Jan. 8 (IP)
Floyd Martin Pousson, 17, today
laced a lite term in the Oregon
penitentiary after pleading guil
ty to a charge of second degree
murder of Natsukl Kurisu, 61, a
Japanese-American resident of
near Ontario.
Pousson, who was arrested in
Dalhart, Tex., Oct. 12 in posses
sion oi me car Belonging to the
aged Nisei, was sentenced here
yesterday by Judge M. A. Biggs.
The Lake Charles, La., youth
was charged with slaying the
Japanese-American in Malheur
county Oct. 6, 1945 at a point in
the westelands several . miles
north of Ontario. Kurisu had
given Pousson a "lift" from La-
brande toward Ontario.
The Japanese-American's body
was found Oct. 16 after an ex
tensive hunt by sheriff's officers
ana relatives.
THE CLUB
BLY, ORE.
Bar Dancing Bowling
"Coma in as you are,"
LEWIS WITTERS, Prop.
brick was instructed to go ahead
with his basketball plans.
City Engineer E. A. Thomas
told the council that he has con
tacted the state hldhway depart
ment concerning the repair of
the asphalt pavement on main
from 7th to 9th. The highway
department has agreed to under
take the job not with a new con
crete strip as Thomas suggested,
but with asphalt replacement.
The council accepted the deci
sion. In a recent letter to the Klam
ath heating plant, the council
advised that something be done
about the escapement of steam
from the company's pipes on
Klamath and Main and on Klam
ath and Walnut. The heating
plant replied that the work is
being done now.
Structure Condemned
A letter from the county
health officer. Dr. Peter Rozen
dal, condemning a structure at
937 Klamath, was read before
the council. Pictures of the build
ing 'were shown. Dr. Rozendal
termed the condition of the
shack both inside and out as ex
tremely unsanitary and that it
should be removed. The council
asked the chief of police and
the fire chief to investigate the
affair and present a written re
port at the next meeting. When
Fire Chief Ambrose suggested
they sign Dr. Rozendal's letter,
the council asked that each of
the chiefs write his own report.
The involved matter of the
site for the city-county jail and
the claim to a strip of property
by the Modoc Lumber company
brought about a state of confu
sion in the minds of the council.
It was finally postponed indefi
nitely with the city attorney
looking into the affair.
The state highway department
project of widening S. 6th was
left suspended in mid-air while
councilmen grappled with the
complexities of moving poles,
meter valves, and water mains
to enable the project to get un
derway. The general feeling was
that it will be some time before
the triangular affair twixt the
power company, the city, and
the state will be worked out.
Veteran Appears
David O. Flynn, a newly
returned veteran, appeared be
fore the council with an aoDeal
that the city allow him to live in
a small, old house located on his
property at 2323 Garden, until a
new home on the same lot can
be completed.
Flynn's mother is living there
now, and his wife and child will
come to Klamath Falls soon. Be
cause of the difficulty of finding i
a place to rent while buildine a !
house, Flynn asked that he and
his family be allowed to live
there until a new home is avail
able. The council granted his
request with a time limit of one
year. At the end of that time
the older structure must be
demolished. It had been pre
viously condemned, they ad-
visea.
January 15 was the deadline
set by the council for aDDlica-
tions for all kinds of city licens
es.
Twenty-nine restaurant 11
censes were granted for the new
year, along with seven meat
dealers' licenses, eight barbel
and beauty shop licenses, one
billiard and poolhall license, one
card license, and one bowling
alley license.
The council elected Paul O
Landry as president for the new
year.

Since this week's activities are
non-existent because of final
semester exams. Die high school
column is go
ing to feature
some of the
things that
make KUHS
the school that
it is.
Secret Garden
KUHS has a
secret garden
hidden among
its halls. Not
students up at Jm N,lu
school have noticed it or even
heard of it for it is located off
one of the side halls. The only
wav it can be glimpsed by most
of the kids is by looking up from
a little hall by the cafeteria.
One may actually enter the lit
tle plot of ground by gaining ac
cess to the dramatic storage
room, plowing through a good
deal of props, opening a door,
and descending a small flight of
stairs.
At one time the garden was a
beauty spot in the KUHS halls,
but now it only amounts to a
minute pool and a few dried
weeds. The garden was original
ly built by Otto -Kruger, a for
mer KUHS janitor.
KUHS Graveyard?
One of the other things that is
a source of at least a little bit of
interest on the KUHS grounds is
the rock that slightly resembles
a tombstone. Ihis stone is placed
on the side lawn near the side
door leading to the library.
Despito its slight resemblance
to a tombstone it is really a mon
ument to a tree. The Daughters
oi me American nevoiuuon i
planted a tpee near this monu-:
ment which iy a descendant of :
the original Washington elm. !
This tree, which is supposed to ;
be a grandchild of the original, i
was planted on Arbor Day 14
years ago.
Malin

MALIN Jim Loe, long-time
business man ot Miilin and Mer
rill, today announced sale of the
large brick building on Main
street formerly occupied by the

ath county commissioner and
Malin resident.
Part of the building is now oc
cupied by tho Malin post office,
the J. W, Sanders real estate of
fice and the remainder as living
quarters.
Loe will rent the Main street
room, now being remodeled, as a
pool hall. He operated such a
business in the building when It
was first built a number of years
ago. Reber, manager of the
Malin Cheese company, did not
announce the purchase price of
the building. It is understood to
be a private venture.
