Sheriffs Capt. Gordon Auborn said detectives are investigating a report that Dean Leon Gleaves, the dead man, who had a long criminal record, had bragged he was responsible for the double murder last Nov. 27 of Larry Ralph Peyton and Bevely Ann Allan, both 19. Those slayings are unsolved. Police said Gleaves put a single bullet from a .22-caliber pistol through his bead after fleeing the home of friends where he had forced the 20-year-old woman to submit to a sexual assault at gun mint. The victims were reported to have said that Gleaves boasted before the attack that he had kill ed two teen-agers here. Auborn said of this possibility: "It doesn't look good at the moment.' would not comment further. He Investigating officers said the victims told them Gleaves had taken the pistol, belonging to his host, loaded it, and forced the, husband to lie on the floor in the bedroom. He then forced the wife to submit to unnatural acts, depu ties said. He was spotted a short distance away about 20 minutes after the attack, detectives said. When or.

No NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregaa would give the police department about (790 less than the estimat greater power of enforcement. ed cost of the project which was Meanwhile, the council ex- listed as $25,866.25. The bid was pressed concern over the possibil- referred to the City Manager and ity.that unnecessary injuries, orjthe City Engineer for recommerv loss of life may occur because of individuals jaywalking on busy streets. They urged the public to co operate voluntarily by observing use of traffic lanes and walk sig nals. A letter was read from Safe way Stores, Portland, in refer ence to that firm's plans to build a new store on Ninth Street be tween Pine and High streets and demolish their present structure on Eighth Street, converting Its location and adjacent areas to parking space. The council earlier had grant ed the company a slight off-street parking variance. The company pointed out that while they had an option to all jthe property involved in the re construction, one parcel had a lease that did not expire until June 2, 1962, and there was some question as to whether they would be able to gain control of the property prior to that time. The council expressed an opin ion that since Safeway had ap prised them of the problem, they would not hold the company in violation of off-street parking re quirements until the expiration date of the lease. Safeway said they anticipate construction of the new building to start about the middle of the! summer and after the new struc ture is completed, the old build ing will be torn down and made into a parking lot. A new area was moved into first district number two, which has a stiffer requirement for such items as structural material and wiring. The area is bounded by Washburn Way, Shasta Way, South Sixth and Austin streets. Part of this area now contains Rickfall's apartments and other high value structures, with more commercial structures planned for the area. A paving project for this area was also given the go-ahead at the council session. A single bid to pave Pershing Way from Wash burn Way to Avalon and north from Pershing Way a distance of 160 feet was submitted by As phalt Paving Company. The bid was for $25,124.60 which was OF Fermtrly to 12.95 phont calls, ploase! Wedaesday, January 88, 181 aal'on. Frank R. Weaver, owner of cab ins adjacent to Portland Street, appeared before the council te complain of condemnation pro ceedings against several of his cabins. Weaver complained that the culverts carrying the water adjacent to his property were not at proper grade. It was agreed that the capacity of the culverts was more than adequate, but maintained that the grade was not correct. City Manager G. S. Vergeer was authorized to check levels on in vert and discharge levels of cul verts at Portland Street and where it empties into the canal. Don Sloan, local realtor, ap peared to ask the council for a continuance of two ordinances which would vacate a portion of Peach Street in Eldorado Addi tion, and would rezone an area in that vicinity. The council, how ever, determined that such ordin ances, which were given first and second readings about a year ago, had been too long pending to be representative of any plans that might be in the making for the area. The council also said very little in re-instituting such actions when developments warrant them. Therefore, the council moved to do away with the original ord inances. In other action, resolutions wera adopted setting Monday, Feb. 13, as a hearing date for a portion of the condemnation proceedings against unsafe or hazardous build ings. Those to be heard at that date are the east and west halt of lot 7, block 12, Buena Vista Addition, lot 6, block 12, Bucna Vista, and lots 1 and 2, block; 4, Industrial Addition. The other properties to be condemned will be heard at a later date Reverse parking was authorized in the 300 block of North Third Street. A request for all-day park- ing at 1206 MonClaire was de nied by the council, while point ing out that the area has been zoned for two-hour parking limi tations. Another request for park ing between the curb and the side walk at 1211 Crescent was denied also.
