Judge Sylvester J. Ryan ruled today
that Judith Coplon must sund trial
with Russian Engineer Valentin

City Trys
Another
Park Meter
Still using Klamath Falls' Main
street as a proving ground, the city
has added a new type ot parking
meter between Sth and 6th on a
trial basis, of course.
About half a dozen different types
of meters are now in use along Main
street. All except the original Mark
Times are In on a trial basis while
the city continues probing tor like
able brands.
Two-Way
The latest bunch art two-way af
fairs one meter serves two cars,
fore and aft.
Billed by the manufacturing com
pany. International Meters, Inc. of
New York, as "the greatest Innova
tion in metered parking control,"
the two-way timers are known In
the trade a twin automatics. One
meter post with a twin head serves
two parking spaces.
Elephants'
The theory is that at each meter
two cars shall park front to rear
like elephanu In a parade, leaving
clearance for sliding out at the front
ot one car and the rear ot the other.
Installation costs, servicing and
coin collection are supposed to be
150 per cent less than that of the
single head meters most commonly
used.
Eleven of the double-heads have
been Installed here, clocking 21
parking spaces. One. at a comer,
is a single. The trial period Is. ac
cording to the city, six months.
