VARIED MATTERS OF ERMENT
 OCCUPY COUNCIL

oil and water did mix. as did variety of other unrelated sub jects last night--because they came up for consideration at the regular meeting of the City Council.
 oil? Contracts for hauling fuel oil to the several city properties.
 Bid-opening disclosed identical bids for service to the A.B. Hall and the Airport Building. A toss of the ccin gave the contract to Alaska Transfer. As low bidder for serv- ing the City Garage and Harbor Way shops, Health Center, graders and pile drivers, and the City Hall, Caro Transfer was awarded those contracts.
 Water? The Juneau Water Com pany filed a schedule of rates somewhat above those paid over a period of years. The council voted to engage c. J. Ehrendreich, CPA, to make comparative analysis fer later consideration.
 Election Officials
 The council approved the names of clerks and judges to serve at the August 30 election which will determine the length of terms for mayor and councilmen.
 Clerks will be Mrs. Dewey Bak- CT, Mrs. L. G. Macdonald and Mrs. Bert Lybeck Judges named are Mrs. Gudmund Jensen a..d Mrs. Eva Nygard.
 An unusual situation was resolv- ed in one motion when the coun- cil voted to waive penalties, in- terest and unpaid balance of taxes for the Alaska Housing Authority, on the Channel Apartments. The property has been carried on delinquent tax rolls, but as it is Government property, 1t is not taxable. The AHA, however, pays service charge in lieu of taxes 1 in order to have fire and police protection.
 No Parking Area 1 On the request of Police Chief Bernie Hulk, presented by Assistant Police Chief Frank D. Cavanaugh, ] the council voted to make Fifth Street, between Main and Frank l lin Streets a No Parking" area 1 for use by school buses and ser vice vehicles. This regulation will be effective from am. to 5 pm. except on Saturday, Sunday and holidays.
 Right Of Way Transfer A resolution was passed empow- ering Mayor Waino Hendrickson to complete right of way agreement by which the city gives the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company perpetual right of way to narrow triangular strip of land on Eighth Street, for construction and main- tenance of a water pipe line. | Council members voted to au- thorize Robert Boochever to repre- sent the City at meeting of the Methodist Episcopal Church in New York City, out of which decision is expected on the site of the pro- posed Methodist College. Booch- ever, who is going East anyway, will be asked to urge selection of Juneau as the location, strongly supported by the City Council and the Chamber of Commerce.
 Ski Club Request
 The request of the Juneau Ski Club, through Neil Taylor, Presi- dent, for use of room in the A.B. Hall. was turned over to the City Property Committee, headed by Ed ward Nielsen. Similar requests without, however, offers to pay rent, have been received from several other civic groups.
 The Ski Club would like to use 1 the room for teaching dry" ski ing, and the care and waxing of skis as well as for ski storage. Among other matters discussed were further street improvements and cleanup, the water system and lease details for the Airport Build l ing, operation of the City Dock, and a request from G. R. Churchill concerning space for taxicab stand.
