(P) Second Lieutenant Browne
Clement, of the 13rd attack squadron
from March field, army air oase,
plunged to his death In a freakish
plane accident today.
Th northern light hav seen
queer lights, and ths Medford fir
department haa been called upon to
do some peculiar things. Their lat
est adventure called for th rescue
of a small white kitten from the
giant pine tree In the rear of the
Paul lloffard home at 601 South Oak-dale.
The call was received Friday morn
ing after the kitten had been aloft
In the tree since some time Wednes
day morning. The frightened feline
had climbed the tree and didn't know
now to negotiate the return Journey,
and Its plaintive walls for sustenance
were haunting the neighborhood.
The fire company to the rescue (
With a big hook and lsdder truck
under them James McNeil and How
ard Glascock rushed to the scene
and prepared to return the cat to
mother earth.
Dpon their arrival the feline waa
only 30 feet off the ground, out on
a limb ana looking upon the fire
men with a speculative and not too
receptive eye. As the laddies erected
their ladder and moved toward the
eat, th cat retreated warily up th
trunk of th tree.
This game kept up until th two
amoke eaters were 100 feet above th
ground. At that dlsaylng height,
which th cat didn't eem to ilk
much better than they did. they
reached an Impasse. Th tre would
no longer support them If thy con
tinued upwsrd th cat waa ten feet
above their heada.
On of the men cajollngly extended
hla forked stick to the cat In hopea
ana would com down and be nice
about It.
The prodding of th stick alarmed
tabby only more, and aha leaned
frantically to a higher and entailer
limb. Her footing allpped, ah
clung desperately for a brief moment,
and then with an alarmed aquawk
plummeted downward. Straight paat
the two firemen aha plunged, writh
ing and twisting and clawing at the
empty air In an effort to catch some
thing, but to no avail.
The alight branches whipped by
her and ahe plunged the entire 100
feet to the earth,
demls. however, for sh lsnded. ker-
splaah. plump In th middle of th
Hoffard flah pond, swooshing wstac
In all directions and frightening the
gold fish half to death, with one
mighty leap and another squswk she

lar stated budget basis, according to

Mr. Anstey says. "Our budget de
partment Is set up to ensble motor

Ssfety on the hlghwsys will be the

We feel our budget plan Is a big
