Fat Stock Show and Sale Aug.

Building Inspector Verne Schort gen pointed out that there is quicksand in the bottom of the ditch where the sewer to the area was recently installed. In making hookups, he pointed out, there is a danger that this quicksand would get into the sewer where it would harden much like cement and cause problems. He suggested that the city can vas the approximately 40 homes of the area regarding a plan where by the city would make the hook tips and take the sewer line to the property line. The cost of such a plan would be approximately $34 for each hookup on Avalon and Shasta Way, and $36 on Austin and Sunset. The work would have to be done on a cash basis, and Assistant City Engineer Cliff Sanders pointed out that the bargain price would be contingent upon almost all the res idents of the area agreeing to the plan. Three residents of the area at tended the council session and agreed to the plan. Others are asked to contact the city engineer's office. Work on the project would bo contingent upon the number of persons agreeing to the project and putting up the required amount of cash. Schortgen pointed out also that the approximate cost to have the hookup made by a commercial plumber would be between $50 and $60. He also pointed out that the city would not be competing with commercial plumbers since most plumbers are not equipped to do the necessary digging job that would be required. It was also pointed out at the session that 30 minute parking meters have been installed at the corner space on downtown Main Street. These 30 minute meters still operate on a nickel. Bids were opened on a backhoe for Klamath Memorial Park, and low bidder was Klamath Tractor and Equipment at $2,550.75. Other bidders were Don Kenyon $2,998 and J. W. Kerns $3,200. A petition was received from res idents of the area bounded by Sec ond Street and Payne, and High and Pine asking for a speed not to exceed 15 miles per hour, no parking on Pine between First and Ewuana and a "children at play" sign. The requests were re ferred to the Traffic Safety Coun cil lor study. Building Inspector Schortgen sub mitted his report to the council for the month of July. Again it showed a healthy increase over the amount of Klamath Falls building of last year. Total construction for July was $199,949 comparing fav orably with only $148,325 for the previous year, an increase of about $50,000. The community lounge report, submitted by Elsa Rueck, secre tary, reported 2,901 adults used the facilities in May and 2.681 in June. Visitors included residents of such states as Texas, Tennessee. Min nesota, Montana, North Dakota, Nevada, Washington and Califor- - Em of mm and CHAMPIONSHIP JUNIOR RODEO SAT. Aug, nia; and such countries as Ger many and Canada. The council was also given a list of over 300 residences in the city where tree branches are over hanging the sidewalk below the required seven foot clearance. The list was given to the police judge who is to inform all the violators that they must comply with the law which requires all branches to give seven foot clearance over sidewalks or be given a citation. The first hint of integration dif ficulties reared its head at last night's session when A. D. Lam bert, 642 Pacific Terrace, own er of two small houses at 441 and 443 Michigan appeared before the council and protested that the com plaints against the condition of his property were apparently activat- by fcarFFthat wou,j be rented to Negroes than by the condition of the houses. He reported that the rent from the houses was low, and when asked by Mayor Lawrence Slater if he would consider painting them on the outside, he reported that he was contemplating turning them over to a realtor. Inspector Schortgen reported that four houses in the Michigan area, including those owned by Lamb ert had been inspected by Fire Chief Roy Rowe and himself, and that they could see no basis by which the property could be con demned. Jack Kemnitzer, chairman of the regional Babe Ruth playoffs which open Wednesday at Gem Stad ium, appeared to invite the coun cil to attend the playoffs and was granted permission to hold a brief Babe Ruth parade down Main at about noon on Wednesday.
