The project, called Special Improvement District 1032, is on Sixth, Seventh and Eighth Avenues Northwest between Ninth and. Sixteenth streets.
The bids were referred to the council's public improvement committee and the city engineer. The matter of letting the Great Falls garbage hauling out on bids was postponed after a of the whole" meeting, of the council before the regular meeting. The postponement came at the request of Alderman Robert Bothwell who asked the time to allow the city comptroller to prepare facts and figures on the present operation to be presented to the Council in two weeks. James Frank, of Superior Sanitation, Glasgow, a firm which has garbage contracts both in Glasgow and Shelby, spoke during the behalf of the bid proposal." Mayor William H. Swanberg said he was not in favor of contract hauling for one reason-; "the present one is going along pretty well.

Asked whether his firm, should it be awarded the contract, will participate in "clean-up Frank said "No, because it's cleanup week every week with us." A letter was read from Shelby authorities in which the officials said "Everyone is pleased" with the garbage contract of Superior Sanitation. At the close of the regular meeting, James W. Maxwell read a prepared statement in T. F. O'Connor Co.

Thomas also asked why the Meter Maids here can't wear uniforms as is the practice in Missoula.
He said. "It gets just as hot here as it does there." The council referred to its judiciary committee the matter of residents of the Southwest Side protesting activity of polo and rodeo games at 700 14th St. after hearing from a member of the protesting group, and from Don Cable, who spoke on 1 behalf of the users of the polo grounds. Although 19 residents originally signed the protest, Cable said five had called him request, their names be withdrawn, and two others called the city clerk. Denied was a request of Monarch Lumber Co.
to install advertising material and flags across Eighth Avenue North in front their firm.

Maxwell's doublespaced statement said he learned of the possible suit from a "very good to whom a city employe "just happened to make this remark" Friday evening at a gathering of friends. Maxwell. who appears regularly at City Council meetings, said "Each and every citizen of this great nation is provided with protection and if I have signed any letter which I cannot properly substantiate my remarks with the public records of this city or county, I say I should be sued. "It is with interest to note someone thinks I have been digging too deep into the activities of Great Falls. I haven't really gone below the surface on matters I am on record as having reported," Maxwell said.
Maxwell said to those who may be using "public dissemination of information that I am being sued as a scare tactic," that he can only say that "Mr. James Maxwell does not scare easily." He added he was surprised to find his inquiry and letter writing has resulted in "such importance to warrant such a scare tactic to be used." Parking tickets again were discussed, both from the audience by George Thomas, and on the council, by Alderwoman Marian Erdmann. Thomas asked the council what had become of Mrs. Erdmann's request for more information on the monthly report of Police Magistrate George D. Anderson.

After attending Denver University and the University of Colorado at Boulder, Ken served in the Navy in World War II. After his discharge, he received his bachelor's degree in music education from MSU. He taught school at Manhattan and then went into business with his father in 1952. It was natural that the business be called "Ken Kaiser Music." He left in 1959 to pursue sculpture, and his father is carrying on the business. Kaiser was called one of the most promising sculpture students at the University of Oregon.
His mother says it is amazing to her how he "sees" the figure in a block of wood. Kaiser has also worked in clay and metals. With a recent purchase of large metal kiln, he plans to do a great deal of metal sculpture this winter. One of the most interesting facts about his sculpture work is that he has advanced so fast. He did over 40 giant figures in nine months.
He'd never used a chain saw until almost by accident he discovered early last year that it is perfectly fitted to his talent. He gave up his piano business, the article says, and toured Oregon for the chain saw distributor, exhibiting his artistry at such events as the Portland Rose Festival and a major logging congress. He then was commissioned by Ray and Marylee Thompson to carve his figures at the Thompsons' famous "Trees of Mystery" grove, a noted tourist attraction near Requa, Calif.
