Street sale of joke books
brings Frog to court again
By Susanne Steffens
i>*0iyt D*<y CmmuJ
On Friday, one of the Uni
versity area's most famous
residents is going 10 court.
David Henry Miller, lietter
known as "Frog." has been
soiling his |oke books without
a license on Hast 13th Avenue
since 1986. which has
brought him many tickets and
court cases.
Two years ago. the city of
Eugene used an ordinance to
fine Frog, which the Oregon
Court of Appeals ruled os
unconstitutional lost April.
The city then appealed to the
Oregon Supreme Court, and
this Friday the court will be
set in Portland.
"We are going to have an
open court at Lincoln High
School, which is a joke in
itself." Frog said, who, with
his attorney Rebecca Davis,
will arrive onrlv in Portland
Friday morning. "We will
definitely win. because we
have a good strong constitu
tional case, and if we lose, we
will appeal to the Supremo
Court of the United Status "
The ordinance Frog violat
ed slates that it is an offense
to sell merchandise on the
sidewalks, and that sidewalk
vending licenses can only he
issued for the sale of food,
beverages, flowers or bal
loons.
Frog does not understand
why the sale of joke hooks is
any different than the sale of
these permitted items, and
claims he is not causing any
harm by standing around the
University Bookstore
"Most people like me and
feel that I'm a part of the envi
ronment hero," he said.
Frog started to get tickets in
1990. when people who
worked in stores nearby
began to complain that Frog
was unfair competition
Ixtcause he wasn't paying the
amount of money that they
did. Since then the city has
been trying to remove him
from the street, and Frog is
angry about all of the money
that has been spent.
"The city has wasted
$50,000 prosecuting me, und
this money could have been
used for a homeless center
instead," he said.
