no authority to take such steps
until the council gave him for
mal authorization.
Councilman Chet Humaken said.
"It seems to me that any road
in this area would be to their
advantage. Under the circum
stances, I'd just as soon pass it
up completely."
Mayor Vcatch stated he would
confer with county officials on
the matter, and see if an alter
nate route could hot be worked
out.
The county has agreed to con
struct the road as soon as the city
procures the right-of-way: They
indicated they were ready to pro
ceed anytime. The city has agreed
to maintain the route once it is
constructed.
The population of the city of
Klamath Falls was officially
set at 16,949 when Vcrgcer read
a letter from the Oregon Board
of Census listing that as the of
ficial 1960 census for the city
Only one firm submitted bids
on an automobile for the building
department. Balsigcr Motors bid
$1,420 net on a standard Ford
model and $1,240 net on a Ford
Falcon. It developed that only I
$1,000 was available for an auto
in the departmental budget, but
the council moved to appropriate
$240 from another portion of the
department's budget and purchase
the Falcon.
A new ordinance governing the
heights of trees and shrubs at
intersections was given first and
second reading by the council.
The ordinance would prohibit
trees or shrubs being more than
three feet above the crown of the
adjacent street in the parking
strip at any Intersection. It also

Lucile O'Neill School will soon
get a multipurpose room and
Pelican School a four-classroom
additiorl. '
Those decisions were reached
during a meeting of the city ele
mentary school district .hoard of
education Monday night.
Existing funds from the dis
trict's serial levy are expected
to cover cost of construction, says
Ray Hunsaker, superintendent of
city schools.
The new classrooms will re
place other? that are considered
substandard at Pelican, iwo are
beneath the gymnasium and are
bombarded by excessive noise
One, in the basement, has poor
ventilation and one is much tool
small, savs Hunsaker. None have
outside access.
The multipurpose room at
O'Neill was eliminated from the
first phase of construction be
cause board members were not
sure sufficient funds would be
available.
The school is expected to be
ready for .occupancy sometime
next spring. The multipurpose
room should be ready by next!
fall, officials say.
The elementary board also
named C. "Buz" Larkin and Mrs.
James Barnes to terms on the
district's budget committee ex
piring June 30, 1963. The board
also appointed Richard Hicks to
a term expiring next June 30.
The Klamath Union High School

with the elementary district board,
accepted "with regret" the res
icnation of Mrs. Frank Tucker,
psychology teacher, who plans to
join her husband in Lbs Angeles.
He recently resigned as mana
ger of the Klamath County Cham
ber of Commerce to accepl a po
sition with the national chamber

who will teach English, replac
ing Mrs. Janet Groves, whose1

Steps Required
To Pass Bills
Are Outlined
SALEM (AP) The steps re-.
tiuired to pass a bill in the
Oregon Legislature were outlined
today primarily for freshman
members at a legislative orienta
tion conference.
Sam R. Haley, legislative coun
scl, told the House and Senate
members that many measures
come before the session and a
bill is only one of the many
types.
He said m addition there are
resolutions, memorials and others.
Haley said a bill begins with
the idea which the legislator de
velops or has suggested to him
by constituents.
' Then, Haley said, the bill is
drafted and presented to the chief
clerk. Next it goes to the en
grossed and enrolled bill room.
From there, Haley said, the bill
goes to thn clerk of the House
in which it originated for a first
reading. The next day it gets a
second reading.
After that the presiding officer
of the House involved sends it to
the appropriate committee, which
can report it out favorably or
unfavorably, amend it, substitute
another measure or send it out
with a majority and, minority
report.
Haley said the bill, if reported 1
out by the committee, then is
read for a third time, debated
and voted upon. If passed, he
said, it goes to the other house
for the same procedure.
If both houses pass the bill it
goes to the governor for a signa
ture and then, if signed, to the
secretary of state to be printed
with other laws passed in the
session.
Haley said that bills defeated
in one House and passed in the
other are conferred upon in joint
committee in an attempt at com
promise which often is successful.
Sen. Jean Lewis, D-Poitland,
outlined the purpose of House and
Senate rules and presented them
briefly. She said this is the first
session of the Oregon Legislature
with rules governing conference
committees.
Dr. Frank 1 Roberts, Portland
Slate - College professor w ho is
chief clerk of the House, dis
cussed parliamentary procedure.
A resume of services to legis-
lators was presented by state offi
cials including Atly. Gen. Robert
Y. Thornton and Harold F. Phil-
lippe; assistant secretary of state.

Menshikov
Confers
About Laos
WASHINGTON (AP) - Soviet
Ambassador Mikhail A. Menshi
kov today conferred with Sccre
tary of State Christian A. Herter
dn the Laos' crisis: The State De
partment shortly afterward ac
cused the -Russians of supplying
growing airlift in support
of Red rebels there.
There was no immediate indi
cation that the Mcnshikov-Herteri
meeting signaled any break in the
East-West standoff over Laos, but
the unusual meeting was shroud
ed in secrecy.
Menshikov visited Herter for
nearly 40 minutes. The Russian
requested the meeting.
State Department press officer
Lincoln White said afterward that
the ambassador "came in to dis
cuss the situation in Laos as he
sees it from his standpoint.'
Asked what Menshikov's stand
point was, White referred to com-'
ments on the Laotian situation ap
pearing in the Soviet press. The
Soviets claim the United States
is interfering in Laos. They op
pose the pro-Western regime of!
Prince Bonn Oum.
White declined to say either
yes or no when asked if there
was any encouragement from the
session.
As for the Soviet airlift of aid
to the Laotian Reds, White said
press reports that this had been
abandoned have proved incorrect.
On the contrary, he said, it
is still growing."

The city elementary school dis

Monday night to allow Klamath

Ponderosa School next school year
if the KUHS board asks for it.
Meanwhile, the high school
board is casting about for a bet
ter solution to its population

Population forecasts indicate
that mora students will enroll
next fall than KUHS has room to

accommodate. However, the fore
casts are only "educated esti
mates" and in the event enroll
ment falls sufficiently below ex

need be made immediately, school

But elementary district board
members have been aware of tha
KUHS plight and the matter has
been discussed informally between
the two boards.
The KUHS administration plans
tentatively to teach solid subjects
to freshmen at Ponderosa if need

some in the afternoon.
Meanwhile, the KUHS board is
gearing for work that will lead
to a more permanent solution to
ts population problem. Board
members already are studying a
proposal that the district build
one or more school buildings to
house freshmen outside the KUHS
campus.
Some board members believe
firm decision will be reached
sometime nexl spring.
The elementary district current'
ly serves five first grades at Ptjn
derosa School. But plenty of room
should be available for displaced
youngsters next fall at M i H s
School or the new O'Neill School
expected to be ready for occupan
cy sometime next spring.
The elementary district planned
to build only six classrooms :at
O'Neill School during the first
phase of construction. But an al
ternate bid for four additional
rooms proved so attractive that
the bid was accepted.
The offer of use ot Ponderosa
School carries stipulation that usa
shall be granted only if the KUHS
crisis becomes acute.
The lease would be "reviewabla
and renewable." Cost for the first
year would be $3,600 to the KUHS
District. The district would also
be bound to provide proper maintenance.
