The city council decided at a meet
ing Tuesday night to ask the state
to install a caution light at the north
city limits, at a point where Locust
avenue Intersects highway 20.
The officials pointed out that the
yellow blinker is necessary to avoid
further accidents on the curve.
The council ordered street lights

The councllmen decided to buy
a used tractor, with a blade, for use
in keeping the garbage dump in
better condition. They said they have
to do something to improve con
ditions at the dump.
A request from the operator of the
Owyhee hotel for a loading zone
on Main street was taken under ad
visement.
A beet license application from
Eddie's club was approved.
The councilmen voted to increase
the price of cemetery plots, prin
cipally for the reason that the low
price is causing people to buy more
land In the cemetery than they need.
However, the $5 that the city has
been charging for each plot is far
below the price charged in other
cities. Also for the $5, the city
has been maintaining lawn on the
plots.
In other cities in eastern Oregon
and southwestern Idaho, cemetery
plot prices range from $20 to $50,
with perpetual care. The Nyssa
council plans on charging $25 for a
single grave plot, with perpetual
care. It will charge $17 for digging
an adult’s grave and $10 for a child’s
grave.

At Luncheon
After election of officers of the
Founders Service Organization of the
Malheur Memorial Hospital associa
tion at a luncheon In the Doll House
at noon today, the remainder of the
lunch hour was devoted to a discus
sion of the anticipated 1952 March
ol Dimes.
The new officers, unanimously
elected, are Robert P. Thompson,
president; Max Jones, vice president;
C liff Main, F. N. Brown and CUff
Mink, directors, and Kay Peterson,
secretary.
John O'Toole, manager of the hos
pital. said 1078 patients have re
ceived treatment at the hospital
since the opening in October. 1950.
Twenty-nine persons have died and
199 babies have been born at the hos
pital. 468 cases have been X-rayed
and 257 have received surgery. In
the last nine months. 91 persons
have received 1579 treatments in the
physio-therapy department.
"The physio-therapy department
has exceeded my expectations”, said
O'Toole. "A bad feature of the situa
tion Is that some people think the
department is only for polio cases
and that is not so We can treat
many other cases in the physio-ther
apy ward. O l course, patients have
to be referred to us by a physician.”
Pete Fleissner, the physio-therap
ist, said the scope of the department
is certainly not limited to polio. He
has tea ted some fractures and dis
locations that did not respond to
other types of treatment. He also
treats nerve injuries, joint and
muscle ailments. Nyssa has the only
tank for such treatment for a dis
tance of hundreds of miles, except
at Boise. Fleissner said there is no
limit to what can be done in his de
partment.
Harold Henigson of Nyssa, county
chairman of the March of Dimes,
said there is a deficit of about $1500
in the fund for fighting polio and
other diseases. The national founda
tion is not in a position to pay any
thing further toward the local coun
ty Mils The nrly way th ' problem
can be solved is to raise the money
locally. Henigson further discussed
the urgency of the need, locally and
nationally.
Wilton Jackson, who presided at
the meeting, also discussed the
March of Dimes campaign. He is
Nyssa chairman of the campaign.
Jackson said Bernard Frost will be
in charge of the solicitations in the
business section. The residential
section will also be divided for so
licitations. School children will par
ticipate in the campaign, along with
the Boy Scouts. The labor union at
the sugar factory will raise funds
there.
Clyde Snider of Nyssa, chairman
of the Malheur county polio organi
zation, quoted Tom Jones of Nyssa
as saying "The March of Dimes is
not a 10 cent idea". One single case
may cost $10,000 or $13,000. Many
run as high as $15,000 and some have
gone as high as $30.000.
