fEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY. FEBRUARY f. IMS PAGE FIVE WHILE STEALING Society and Clubs A most unusual sort of crime wu discovered last nipht, when lour smalt boys were apprehended by city police, charged with stealing the small red and green reflector but tons used to hold automobile license plates in place. When the boys were nabbed at 11 o'clock last night, their pockets were stuffed with the reflectors, there being 36 found In their possession. The bright glass buttons were to be used to decorate the boys' bicycles. according to police. This Is not the first time this petty crime has been detected. Chief McCredle said, at one time boys having been caught In the act of removing the reflectors and then taking the loosened plates and sailing them away, apparently to enjoy watching the peculiar gyra tions they made going through the air. 1 The four boys were making a sys tematic canvass of the town last night, on bicycles, grabbing each re flector that they saw, police said. Those unlucky motorists whose re flectors are missing today can prob ably find them among the large col lection on hand at the police sta tion. The boys were brought to the city police station this morning for ques tioning, and their case has been taken under advisement. Police report that a wave of petty thievery is sweeping over the city, and gas is being stolen in quantities, tlie safest protection being the pur chasing of a gas tank that will lock.
