Mr. and Mrs. Louis Wood, 4431
Berry Street, at approximately
6:25 a.m. Tuesday in one of four
fires reported to the Klamath

The fire started when a pillow
on the davenport fell against, a
heater. Mrs. Wood picked up the
pillow and returned it to the dav
enport, unaware that it had caught
tire. The smoldering pillow set the
davenport afire, causing minor
smoke damage throughout the
house.
At 9:25 a.m.,' Monday, the Coun

ignited. Workmen at the lumber
company extinguished the blaze
with (ire extinguishers before fire
men arrived, it was said. Dam

residence of C. D. Groves, 1434
Lakeview Street, at 5:14 p.m., and
pickup truck which was de
stroyed at the Klamath Auto Body

you can't control. It appears to
me that your troubles stem from
rock 'n' roll bookings."
However, Councilman Lyle Kell
strom disagreed, stating he didn t
think it was inevitable that trou
ble would occur and moved that
the license be granted. The coun
cil unanimously approved the
granting of a revocable license
Real Kstate
Jn oljjjuqppseajl ordinance which
would require real estate deal
ers to label each piece of proper
ty in the city with its proper zone
designation was dusted off by
the council.
Earl Harbin, 2501 Biehn Street
appeared in response to a move
by the council investigating his
auto towing and auto repair
business, newly established at the
Biehn Street address.
Harbin told ilie council they
were insurance tow jobs and that
it was necessary for him to hold
the wrecked autos until the in
surance claims had been taken
care of. He said he had leased
the building at 2501 Biehn from
Cal Peyton after he had ex
plained to him what type of busi
ncss he conducted and what he
needed.
Kellslrom, an insurance agent,
commented that he knew from
experience that the cars would
sometimes have to be kept on
hand for lengthy periods and some
of them might never be cleared
out. "They would become mere
ly junkers, and I'm fearful of
this," he added.
It developed that this type of
business was not permitted in a
C-2 zone which is the designation
for this area.
Hoyt unequivocally opposed the
granting of a license for this pur
pose and moved to reject the li
cense application. v
Fleet called for a revival of the
proposed ordinance on realtors
designating properties, but City
Attorney Henry Perkins cautioned
that realtors were licensed by the
state and that anv such ordinance
would be hard to enforce.
City Planner Ken Blackman told
the council that Peyton had called
him earlier Monday and said that
he would refund Harbin's money
if the council denied the license
The council rejected the license
application and gave Harbin two
weeks to dean up the property.
In other action, the council
authorized a resolution going
