Sutton, a millworkcr accused of making im proper advances toward his own year-old daughter, was expected to reach a circuit court jury this afternoon. BOTH STATE and defense at-j torneys had rested their cases late Monday, the trial's first day, but both attorneys offered additional witnesses today. Much of today's morning session was devoted to questioning and cross-examining Dr. Gerald Ilau gen, a Portland psychiatrist who examined Sutton during the noon recess Monday. Dr. Haugen incorporated into his report findings made by Dr. Hen ry Dickson of Portland, another psychiatrist who had examined Sut ton earlier. Dr. Haugen said Sut ton had been exposed to an in creasing amount of tension in the last few years, and had manifested this tension in insomnia, lack of, ability to relax, and fainting spells. Sutton himself was on the stand Monday afternoon, the first de fense witness offered by Attorney Glenn D. Ramirez. The state's key witness, present ed by Deputy District Attorney O. W. Goakey, was the defendant's daughter, now 8 years old. She described conditions relating to her father's alleged attentions last July 15. SUTTON'S WIFE, Mary Jane, was offered as a state witness but once on the stand declined to tes tify against her husband. It was she who had brought charges against him. Mrs. Sutton operates Evans Gro eery on Summers Lane. Sutton is an employe of a lumber mill. Other state witnesses were for mer Deputy District Attorney Phil ip Engelgau. now of Portland; Mrs. June Trimmel, temporary employe of the district attorney's office; Deputy Sheriff Dale Mat toon, and Sutton himself, who was called to the stand in absence of the jury to establish conditions re Funerals KAMARAD Funeral services for Joseph Frank Kamarad. 75. who died in San Jose February 13, will be held at the graveside in the Malin Cem etery Wednesday, February 17, at p.m. O'Hair's Memorial Chapel is in charge of the arrangements.

A hear ing on the charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor was scheduled for 10 a.m. Thurs day before District Judge D. E Van Vactor. Fowler, 3947 Boardman Avenue, was accused of committing a per verse act with the youth, in his car on the Midland-Kcno Road last May 18.

Fowler was returned to county jail in lieu of $2,500 bail. 3 Cars Involved In Rear-Ender Three cars were involved in a multiple rear - end accident on Lakeport Boulevard about 4:50 p.m. Monday, state police said.

Spears Chiropractic Hospital Street Paving Protested By Vashburn Residents City council chambers wer filled with residents of the Wash burn Way vicinity Monday night as they came to protest a peti tion requesting that portions of the street be paved. The petition as presented to the council asked that the street be paved from the center line of Eb erlein Street to the northerly line of Darrow Street. PRIOR TO HEARING from per sons in the audience, Mayor Lawr ence Slater had G. S. Vergeer, city manager, explain how the method of assessment is worked out on improvement projects. Ver geer explained that the amount of assessment decreases in cost in accordance with distance away from the improvement, and that it has been customary for the council to assess a distance of one half block on all paving projects He pointed out that because of the unusual situation where two blocks are actually combined on the streets leading off Washburn Way, the council decided to as sess lor a distance of 200 feet back on these streets from Wash burn Way. Police Probe Accidents Three minor auto accidents came to the attention of city po lice Monday. No injuries result ed. At 4:50 p.m. officers investigat ed a collision between cars driven by Everett C. Vandcrpool, 219 South Eleventh Street, and Ronald H. Thomas, 4503 Altamont Drive No citations were issued. Police said Thomas was east bound on Eleventh and hit the Vanderpool car which was pulling from a parking spot. Damage was minor to medium. Albert Henry Ross of 2220 Gar den Avenue was charged with reckless driving when his car struck one owned by Melvin C Goodwin of 1930'4 Orchard Avenue on East Main Street near Mills School at 9:02 p.m. The Goodwin car was parked legally, officers said. The Ross case was continued in municipal court Monday. Jimmy Barnes, 111 Sheldon Street, told police a hit-run driver struck his family's car as it was parked Monday evening in the lot of a local grocery store.

I 'V I Assistant City Engineer Cliff Sanders explained in detail the method used to determine assess ments, using a blackboard to out line the area. He estimated the total cost of the project as about $30,000. He further explained that the 200 foot area to be assessed is broken up into five 40 foot seg ments and that these are assessed at the rate of 45 per cent for the first 40 feet, 25 per cent for the second, 15 per cent for the third, 10 per cent for the fourth and five per cent for the balance. BREAKING THESE costs down according to 50 foot lots, Sanders listed them approximately as $975 for the first 50 feet, $490 for the second, $280 for the third 50 foot lot, and $130 for the fourth. Those lots bordering Washburn Way would pay $775 for each 60 foot lot on the east side of Wash burn Way, except $800 for the last lot on the north end of the proj ect, and $980 for planned 75 fool lots on the south end of the proj ect. The council chamber was filled with 27 property owners involved Al Longmire, 2555 Wantland opened the questioning from the floor by asking if the street was to become a truck route. Mayor Slater pointed out that while there had been talk of build ing a bridge across the canal at the north end, as far as he knew it was not going to become an east-side bypass. "As for trucks,' he continued, "they have the right to use any streets in the city, and we can't stop them." LeRoy W. Lubke, 2550 Darrow, wanted to know whether or not the state or county planned to put in the bridge and pave the street, commenting, "If they arc, why should we pay for paving the street. Let someone else pay for it." ' BIGGEST AREA of disagree ment centered on the width of the street. The city planning commis sion has recommended that the street, if paved, should be made 44 feet wide to handle all future traffic. Residents protested this Monday night, saying they only wanted a 36 foot street. Mayor Slater em phasized that since all that was required was a 36 foot street, and that it would be 44 feet to meet city needs, the city would assume the cost of an eight foot strip in the middle. Other persons present expressed the fear that if it were paved a 44 foot width, it might tend to turn the street into a busy thoroughfare rather than a residential street. An informal hand ballot of those present revealed that the majority opposed the project. A councilman questioned the pe tition as presented since it pos sessed only eight names, and the charter requires that 10 property owners must sign it to get coun cil action. Either this, he pointed out, or the project must be in troduced by a councilman. THE CIRCULATOR of the pe tition, William Ackerman, 2316 Wantland, arose and withdrew the petition when it appeared that op position to the plan would kill the project anyway. In other matters, Charles Schuss, director of the chamber of com merce, appeared with Lewis Way- burn of the Klamath Merchants Association to request permission to erect a signboard opposite the terminal of the West Side Bypass at Main Street. The signboard would inform travelers of accom modations available in Klamath Falls and urge them to stop here. Permission was granted to erect the sign, except the council asked that they be furnished with a sketch of the signboard first.
