whether Pasternak will be allowed
to go to Sweden to accept the
Nobel award and the $41,000 that
goes with it.
It is probable that he can spare
the $41,000. The book has been
immensely successful and is be
lieved to have made a lot of mon
ey for its publisher. It seems im
probable that the publisher would
not have set aside the royalties
due the author.
The problem lies in getting the
money to him or in getting him
away from Russia so that he can
get the money.
A word in conclusion.
What are the Nobel prizes?
There are five of them:
1. for the most important dis
covery or invention in the field of
physics.
2. In the field of chemistry.
3. In physiology or medicine.
4. For the most distinguished lit
erary work of an idealist nature.
5. For the most effective work
in the interest of international
peace.
The average value of the prizes
is about $40,000. Those for physics
and chemistry are awarded by
the Royal Academy of Science in
Stockholm, the prize for medicine
by the Caroline Institute, which is
the faculty of medicine in Stock
holm, for literature by the Swedish
Academy of Literature in Stock
holm and the peace prize by a
committee of five elected by the
Norwegian parliament.
The money, which comes from
the interest on an endowment of
about $9,000,000, was provided by
a Swede, Alfred Bernhardt Nobel
who invented dynamite, among
other things. He lived and worked
in the last half of the last cen
tury, and his inventions and the
factories he set up to produce them
made him one of the richest men
in the world in his day.
Board Eyes
OTI Future
PORTLAND (AP) Oregon's
Board of Higher Education took a
look at technical education today
and voiced some comments that
might bear on the future of Ore
gon Technical Institute at Klam
ath Falls.
A set of recommendations were
prepared Monday night. Just be
fore noon today the board ap
proved them.
They say this: A college-level
technical institute separate from
vocational schooling is probably
desirable in Oregon; the Board of
Higher Education is not in a posi
tion to discuss vocational educa
tion; it believes that OTI should
remain under the authority of the
Roard of Education, which now
handles OTI.
The question came, up because
Gov. Robert D. Holmes had asked
for recommendations to aid in
budget preparation.
Earlier the board approved its
committee action of Monday in
planning for $4,460,000 worth of
new construction.

to Virginia Dixon. Red Cross exe

and paving problems faced the
itv rminr-il in its regular Monday
night session in city hall.
The question of paring down tne
costs of paving projects was
raised with city manager G. S.
Vergeer proposing to tne council
that it chance its requirements for
permanent street improvements.
He proposed that instead of the
customary five inches of asphalt
which is used with anout mree
in,.hne nt hauf the COIincil shift tO
a policy of requiring six inches of
base with only three inencs oi as
phalt to be applied in two lifts
of one and one half inches of as
phalt each.
The attendant savings, he said,
uinulH amount tn aDDroximatcly 18
cents per square yard, and would
actually give a better sunace. ine
base is the important thing," he
nointed out. "the asphalt is mere
ly the wearing space." ,
The'council agreed to explore the
subject in more detail and set
specifications at a later meeting.

asked the wrong fellow for 25

for vagrancy. He was given a sen

TUESDAY. OCTOBER 23, 1858
pointed out that some utilities had
protested the fact that their emer.
gency vehicles were not given
parking privileges while on call in
the downtown area.
After discussion it was decided
to grant utilities one sticker which
they could use on such an emer
gency which would give them park
ing privileges in the downtown
area, but only while on actual
duty.
These would be granted only
when requested.
Permission was given for a sound
truck tn be operated in the busi
ness area from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
on Saturday, November 1, on be.
half of the two mill levy for park
and recreation purposes. A group
known as "citizens for recreation"
would be sponsoring the sound
truck, and high school personnel
would be handling the mike.
The question oi vacating a por
tion of Johnson Street which inter
sects Canby was tabled when it
became known that the council
did not have the consent of ad-
acent property owners. Councilman
Walter Fleet pointed out that the
property in question is too steep
ever to be a street and could be
a building lot. "It has been a com
munity eyesore for years," Fleet
said, "and we were trying to do
something about it, but one of
the abutting property owners ap
parently objects, so we'd better
leave it as is."
Among the building permits ap
proved by the council, was a re
quest by Cliff and Harry Molatore
to make a $45,000 addition to Mo!
atore's Motel at 100 Main Street.
Also, Cecil Fitzgerald was grant
ed a permit in the amount of $2,
200 to install a new roof on the
old armory, now known as Klam
ath Auditorium.
The council granted permission
to the J u n i o r Chamber of Com
merce to conduct a Christmas pa
rade down Main Street starting at
11 a.m. Saturday, December 6. The
request pointed out that prizes of
$150, $75 and $25 were being award
ed for the best float portraying the
theme, "The Spirit of Christmas."
The question of sign hanging also
confronted the council. It was
pointed out that in some cases,
local licensees have permitted out
side sign makers to come in, use
the local licensees permit, and hang
signs.
LcRoy Collins, state electrical in
spector, pointed out that sign hang
ers must have a slate license, and
that at present, there were only
three sign hangers licensed in
Klamath Falls.
A review of the ordinance point
ed out that there was a penalty
that could be imposed in such
cases.
The subject of sign hanging came
up in another manner when it was
emphasized that in many instan
ces the sign is hung before the
permit is secured. Reviewing the
ordinance, the council reported that
after this anyone doing this would
find themselves cited and fined for
violation of the ordinance.
In other action, the council auth
orized East Side Appliance 'Com
pany to use angular loading and
unloading at Seventh and Klamath.
City Manager Vergeer was au
thorized to endorse a check from
the state of Oregon in the amount
of $425.55 in favor of the Motorola
Communications and Electronics,
Inc., in payment of civil defense
radio equipment which will be in
stalled at the city fire hall to per
mit them to be in contact with the
county mutual aid system.
