company of Portland said while in
Nyssa Wednesday that “The physi­
cal plants of the Nyssa school sys­
tem are in better shape than in any
school district in the state of Ore­
gon”.
“One reason is that the buildings
are comparatively new and the old
building has been remodeled to
meet the standards of the state
“The gymnasium was so well
planned in advance of the con­
struction that it incorporates all the
necessary facilities for conducting
a good physical education program.
The major feature of the gymnasium
is that it was built not only for
basketball, but for physical edu­
cation, which is as it should be.
Many gymnasiums are built with
only basketball in mind.
“You have also incorporated in
the gymnasium, one of the best
stages in the state, so you have that
facility without spending a lot of
money for a separate building”.

by Jed Lewis of Nyssa, district man­

Wednesday noon.
The Grange officials will inter­
rupt the Ontario sessions Wednes­
day afternoon to bring a delegation
to Nyssa to inspect the sugar fact­
ory, eat a lunch and view other
places of interest.
“The visit will give us an op­
portunity to show those people what
a fine agricultural area we have
here", Mr. Lewis said. “I am sure
they will go back home convinced
that this is one of the outstanding
agricultural areas in the state".

This dual purpose is made possible

which are expanded for seating
spectators and are pushed together
against the rail to form the fourth
wall of the physical education room

Mr. Shell urn said Henry Hartley.
Nyssa superintendent of schools,
originated the dual purpose bleach­
er idea that was later developed by
the architect and the manufactur­
ers of the telescopic gym seats, the
Fred Medart company of 8t. Louis.
Since the idea was originated in
Nyssa, using balcony space for ac­
tivity rooms is being copied all over
the state, according to Mr. Shellum,
who smilingly admitted he is one of
the chief reasons for spread of the
plan. He ls asking Mr. Hartley to
write an article about the idea for

The Nyssa city budget as adopted
Tuesday night by the city council
and budget board shows an increase
of exactly six per cent over the
1949-50 budget, in the section con­
trolled by the six per cent limitation,
so that city electors will not be call­
ed on to vote on a special levy.
The total budget, other than the
expenses for the water and sewer
departments, amounts to *60.522 as
compared to*59.094, an increase of
$1,428. The amount of money to
be raised by taxation inside the six
per cent limitation is *18.312, which
represents an increase of six per
cent over the $17,276 figure of last
year.
The amount of money to be raised
by taxation outside the six per cent
limitation is *10.450. as compared to
$10,734 for the 1949-50 budget.
Much of the budget was the same
for the two years. There is no
change in the amounts budgeted for
the police department, librarian,
office clerk, health officer, city at­
torney, Janitor, office clerk, health
officer, city attorney, janitor, aud­
itor and city grounds and streets.
The street light funds was in­
creased *1,310 to *4,110, the emerg­
ency fund was reduced *758.75 to
*2,488.25, bonded indebtedness was
dropped *500 to $5,500, interest on
bonds was increased *253.75 to *2,-
328.75, the cemetery fund was in­
creased $200 and the estimated
state gas tax item was increased
$648 to $13,500.
The city’s share of the state gas
tax must be spent on streets, City
Manager E. K. Burton said.
The expenditures and receipts of
the water department and the sew­
er department are not Included in
the general budget, because they
are self-sustaining.

County Court Calling For
Vote On Exceeding Budget
Man Arrested On Fertilizer Finn
Driving Charge Aiinonnees Plans
Francisco Lopez. 19, of Nyssa,
pleaded guilty in Judge Don M.
Graham's justice court this morn­
ing to a charge of drunken driving.
Lopez was accused of driving an
automobile that crashed against a
car owned by Ormond Thomas Wed­
nesday afternoon while the Thomas
car was parked across highway 20
from the Nyssa Implement company
plant.
Judge Graham gave the youth
until Monday at 6 p. m. to pay for
the damage to the Thomas automo­
bile before sentence is passed.
Two witnesses at the hearing held
this morning. Mr. and Mrs. Rolland
Whitman, testified that Lopez was
traveling north when they first saw
him. They said he forced the op­
erator of one automobile to drive
off the highway onto a vacant lot
and swerved his own machine off
the oiled portion of the load. When
Lopez swung back onto the highway,
the rear bumper crashed against
the Thomas car parked off the oil.
Lopez continued traveling north,
witnesses said, and Thomas rushed
from hLs place of business to sur­
vey the damage and get a descrip­
tion of the driver.
While looking at the car, Thomas
jumped into a passing taxi driven
by Dave Thomas and the two gave
chase after the fleeing youth. Or­
mond Thomas said Lopez turned a-
round and met the taxi south of
the Lloyd Lewis place. The taxi
driver chased Lopez to a point near
the Berrett service station, where
the youth stopped for no apparent
reason. Dave Thomas jerked him
from the automobile and Ormond
Thomas called officers.
Insurance men estimated the
damage to the Thomas car at $180.
Van Ness Anderson of Burley an­
nounced here Wednesday that con­
struction will be started in the near
future on a building to be erected
for the Mor-on Fertilizer company.
The building, approximately 50 by
180 feet, will be constructed on
ground leased from the Union
Pacific Railroad company on the
Homedale branch on the site of the
old stockyards between the Lutz and
Malheur Produce properties.
Although the type of construction
has not been definitely decided on.
Anderson estimated the investment
at approximately $300,000.
The concern will manufacture
commercial fertilizer, shipping in
the ingredients and mixing them
here.
Special Election W ill Be
Held On $87,500
July 14
The Malheur county court decid­
ed Wednesday to hold a special
election July 14 for a vote on the
proposal to exceed the 1950-51
county budget by *87,500.
The proposal will be submit«! to
the voters on two ballots, one calling
for $20.000 for the courthouse sink­
ing fund and one for *67,500 for oth­
er major items, such as county
health unit, county agent and
county library.
The proposition was rejected by
voters In the May primary, when
they voted on the $87,500 recom­
mendation on one ballot.
The decision of the court follow­
ed by one day a hearing attended
by representatives of civic organi­
zations, Granges and other groups
of the county in the Boulevard
Grange hall. The group recom­
mended to the county court by a
vote of 35 to 29 that the proposal
be re-submitted to the voters.
