Main, in which he promised to barricade) driveway leading from his place in to an alley to the east of his plaoe. it was pointed out oy uounciunan Wendell Smith that so far tills hi-.d not been done. He favored makiixg Carnini live up to the agreeme..t within 30 davs or- revoke his pei mlt. He pointed out that not only was me driveway oeing used, creak ing a hazardous traffla condition, but cars at the drive-in were park ing on and over the sidewalk in direct violation of the law. Later, Walter Snlsbery. city build ing inspector, criticised Carnini as the business manager of the Sons of Italy basebal nine. Salsbcry stated that the Sons were not liv ing up to their agreement with the city to build up Recreation park firoperly in return for the use of he park three days per week. He slated specifically that the Sons were usiug shoddy materials in their construction, that no repairs had been made to existing facilities except for the rerooflng of the grandstand, which he said was done onlv at his ow.il insistence. The matter was referred to the recrea tion committee with the orders that the work be carried out according to the agreement. City Hall Repair With the coming of spring and the warm weather. the usual sug gestion that . something be done about fixing-up the city hall was made bv Councilman A. P. Con drev. Condrev remarked particular ly "at the roof, which had leaked on htm several times when he first attended council meeting last De cember. Building Inspector Salsbery was asked to look the roof over and make an estimate of the cost of fix ing it. .... . He was also asked to affix hand rails to the stairs in the building to conform with the state law. Two nroriceed imurovement units came before the attention of the council also. A,. P. flora. 2453 Apple gate, arose at the meeting to rep resent property owners- on Apple gate between. Mildhell and Wash burn way. He told the couiie l that the property owners have collected thau$150 for preliminary survey of the street, but that there are two lots on the street that have promised to -nay and havent. He asked the council What the other property owiters.could do to see that the owners of the vacant lots paid their share or. tne paving- costs, was- told bv; City; Attorney Henry Darin that thes promise was not binding as there was nothing In Writing. He -added that there was nothing the city could do to assure uie payment. , Lowell n- xvaup. i vc - tlon. appeared before tne council with the petition oi tne yiuinj owners on Keciamauon Mitchell and wasnourn $or aui im provement unit Tne petition con tained 18 names, all but two of the r-nn-rv nwners along the - street. according to Kaup. He said that there were two vacant lots on their street, one owned by a church and the -other by a. "man named Fra zler." He added that "Frazier" had come out definitely against the Im provement.

Alvarea stopped In Klamath Falls Sunday night between plane and train on his way to Oakland. Calif. These members of the Crater Lake detach ment discussed the services merger bill with Alvarn while he was here. and he wouldn't, they could make "Frazier" a very unpopular man in the neighborhood. The council ac cepted the petition and moved that the city engineer prepare for a pre liminary survey. It was alleged also that Frazier had a sidewalk In front of his place that was not only In a bad state of disrepair, but even hazardous. The council instructed the street com mittee and the city engineer to in vestigate and take any necessary action. Photo Permit Asked Otis Leach of Portland arose In the meeting to ask the council for permission to take pictures of people on the sidewalks. He explained that his man would take pictures of persons walking along the sidewalk. hand them a ticket as they passed by, and if the person wished to pur chase a picture, he would send the ticket and money In to the com pany. He explained that his man had worked for a short time last Saturday until stopped by the po lice for not having a hawker's li cense, and pointed out that he had not been required to have a license in. either Bend or Salem. Besides, he claimed, he was not selling any thing on the street, only giving a ticket for use at the option of the individual. Councilman Paul O. Landry asked the council if a hawk er's license was required of every sale made in the streets. "If I ask a man to buy a car on the street, do i neea a nawxers license ne asked. He was told that he did. It U stoD half of Klamath Falls from talking on the street then," he commented. The picture taking matter was referred to the police co remittee for action.
