Redlands Engineer Is Enthusiastic Over Mountain Job Virtual completion of the upper portion of the new Oak Glen road, serving an extensive mountain territory northeast of Yucalpa, was apparent yesterday. The road was opened to traffic over a SlA-mils stretch, from west of the Samuel Baumann estate to the Rivers ranch in Oak Glen. The county's prison road crew concentrated its attention yesterday on the lower portion of tho road, which has been roughed out from the Webster ranch to Casa Blanca, the first promontory approaching Oak Glen. One mile west of Casa Blanca the road will connect with the oiled pavement, Sixth avenue, leading into Yucalpa. Although the upper portion of the road already is regarded as a good mounatin thoroughfare, it will receive an oil surface before it is called completed.

All the work is expected to be finished by May 15, when tho prison road camp Is scheduled to be shifted into Mill creek for preliminary work on the new road to Big Bear valley. Excellence of the Oak Glen road was claimed yesterday by Isaac Ford, Redlands engineer and Oak Glen rancher. "All but a short stretch of the road, above the Parrish property, Is under 8 per cent in grade and will bo easily traveled," he said. "This will be a great boon to apple growers, whose products can be hauled out much more hanidly." In connection with the highway project, the Yucaipa Water Co. is LAUDS SCHOOL DEVELOPMENT State W.

City officials attached no blame to the driver of the automobile that Injured Edith Mays, but recognized a need for further protection of children. The special meeting of the coun cil was to be held today but has been deferred owing to the absence from the city of Franklin A. Alexander, police commissioner on the city council.

Special Council Meeting Cancelled City Clerk C. P. Hook yesterday called a special council meeting at the behest of Mayor N. Leo Lelean but countermanded tho order when it became apparent that Mr. Alexander could not attend.

Councilman Theodore Krumm stated that the council would consider an ordinance, which would require all automobiles to come to complete stop before entering safety zones set aside for school children. Stop 6igns would be arranged 100 feet in front of pedestrian lanes, in which children could cross streets with the assurance that mo torists would give them right-of- way. "Signs should be placed In the streets during school hours, Instructing motorists to stop before crossing the pedestrian lanes," said Mr. Krumm. "Police should patrol the streets In front of schools until the public has learned to obey the new rules." A coroner's jury yesterday decided that Edith Mays died of a broken neck, accidentally sustained Monday noon when she stepped in front of an automobile driven by Edgar J.

Burns. Milton E. Robertson was the first to testify when Coroner Al U'Ren began the Inquest. He said that he was driving west on Colton and was behind the car of Mr. Burns.

He saw the child dash Into the street from behind a pepper tree, saws Burns swerve his car, then the child lying in the joad. He helped carry her into the school so that the nurse could make an examination. W. L. Thomas, chief of police.

said there was every evidence that the child had dashed in front of the car and that Burns had stopped his car aa quickly as he could. The child was not in the pedestrian lane provided for school children crossing but had gone to the middle of the block before starting across the street. Miss Beulah Paul, principal of the school, told of being on yard duty, seeing that there had been an accident and running to the scene at once. She asked that the child be taken Into the school for the nurse to examine. Mr.

Burns took the stand and said that he slowed up at the pedestrian lane, saw no children and started on down the street. He did not be lieve he was traveling at more than 15 miles an hour when all at once the child was directly in front of his car which was perhaps eight feet from the north curb. He in stinctively swerved but did not even have time to get his feet off the gas throttle and onto the brake pedal before the fender and left part of the bumper struck the child. He then applied his brakes and brought the car to a stop. The members of the jury were Henry Wilson, J.

J. Daly, H. H. Cox, M. L.

Cell, W. S. Padfield, George Gardner and W. H. Johnston.

Waltonians Oppose Measure and Declare Shooting Would Be Eliminated in County Contending that a proposed ordinance favored by the farm bureau not only would serve to prohibit hunting of any kind practically in every place in the county, but as such also would cause a loss in rcvenuo to business interests of thousands of dollars spent by sportsmen, the Colton chapter of the Izaak Walton league last night went on record as opposing passage of the ordinance. Instead, the chapter suggested in a resolution to the supervisors that action of all kinds be deferred until a different sort of plan to protect property and lives could be worked out.

The resolution emphasized the fact that the Waltonians believe serious consequences would result If an ordinance of the type favored by the farm bureau were passed. Suggest Law Curbing Shooting The farm bureau directors last week suggested a measure prohibit ing the shooting of rifles in terri tory within 1,000 yards and other weapons within 300 yards, of public or private highways, ranching prop erty, or places where cattle or poul try is grazing. This, the waiton lans contended would prevent hunt ing almost everywhere in the county. Rifle target ranges would have to close, farmers could not hunt on their own land and all other hunters, now spending much money in the county for supplies, motor fuel and equipment, would go elsewhere, the resolution stated. It was offered by Wilson C.

Hanna. A committee of the county council of the league is conferring with farm bureau leaders on the ques tion.
