Deputy Sheriff John Law at his desk
John Law Is 'The Law'
In Oklahoma County
(AP Newjfeaturcs)
Oklahoma City, Okla., March 7 Many folks in these parts
think he's kidding when John Law introduces himself.
He's the Oklahoma county deputy sheriff with a name that
. fits his job, too, although he admits it can be embarrassing
-at times.
John Law's embarrassment be
gan a few years back when he
entered the University of Okla
homa to study law. Fellow stu
dents found diversion in much
good natured ribbing of Law,
the young lawyer.
He name later became a real
problem when he quit private
law practice in January, 1949,
to take his post as deputy sher
iff. Law works an eight-hour
trick as a radio dispatcher. He
answers the phone constantly
with: "Sheriff's office, John Law
speaking."
Thafs when the jokesters get
in their licks, and it often takes
plenty of explainng on Law's
part to convince the incredulous,
"Sometimes I feel like using
the name Jones or Smith," Law
says.
2 Little Children Get Bonds
From Man They Befriended
Two little Portland children got $1,091 worth of bonds today
from the estate of a man they befriended. But they lost out on
his $1,000 worth of real estate.
The state supreme court reversed today a Muunoman county
circuit court decision which had given the children the real
estate, too.
The children, now 10 and 12
years old, are Marleen and Carl
Maovski, children of Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Majovski. Their
friend and neighbor was Tom E.
M. Poppoff, a Bulgarian native
who died in Portland in 1947
when he was 64 years old.
The children liked Poppoff.
They ran errands for him, and
worked in his garden. Their
mother cooked for him, made his
bed and did his laundry.
In appreciation for all "this
service, Poppoff made a contract
in 1943 to give the children his
whole estate when he died. He
signed over the $1,091 worth of
bonds to . the children at that
time. (
But when Poppoff died, he
left a will. The will left the
estate to a sister in Bulgaria.
The supreme court says the
children get the bonds because
they already had been signed
over to the children, even though
they were in Poppoff's safe de
posit box when he died. But
the Bulgarian sister gets the
$1,000 worth of real estate,
which consists of the shack and
lot where he lived.
Poppoff came to America from
Bulgaria in 1908.
The supreme court decision by
Justice J. O. Bailey, reversed
Circuit Judge Frank J. Loner-
gan of Portland.
Other court action today:
Fred Meyer, Inc., vs. A. G.
and Winifred C. Magnuson, ap
pellants. Appeal from Multno
mah county. Suit to construe a
lease. Judge D, N. MacKay,
reversed.
