Sheriff's Office Kept Busy
With Calls From Outly
Ing Towns Two Nabbed
in Phoenix School House
While Medford suffered little from
manifestations of the Hallowe'en
spirit, rural activity, some bordering
on vandalism, kept the sheriff's force
on the Jump Sunday night. Calls
were received asking suppression of
merrymakers from Eagle Point, Tal
ent, Phoenix and Butte Falls.
Sheriff Syd I. Brown described
some of the leading marauders as
old enough to vote," and the dep
redations ranged from shooting out
street lights with 21 rifles to soap
ing auto windows.
In Phoenix, the sheriff reported,
two youths entered the school house
and caused some havoc before being

Ta Eagle Point the sheriff broke
up st group of youths ranging In age
from IT to 35 who, with a pickup
truck, were hauling rubbish from
garbage dump for distribution over
front yards. The sheriff also said
In this bailiwick street lights were
rifle targets, and general bedlam
reigned until the bands were dispersed.
In Butte Palls, lively time was
eJso had, with general tipping over
of fences and ripping off of screen
doors, end the same devilment pre
Tailed In Talent, the sheriff said.
The aheriff said he was to busy
to check on the situation at other
rural points, but understood there
was plenty doing In Central Point,
Gold Hill and Jacksonville.
Many Windows Soaped
In this city there was widespread
soaping of store windows snd auto
windows in the downtown district.
blamed chiefly on the older boys.
Merchants were out early washing
windows. Markings on many windows
Indicated they were made by grown
ups. One county official reported he
saw a woman In man's clothing par
ticipating in the mild hoodlumlsm.
At the courthouse burning warn
ing lights, taken from street work,
were placed on the courthouse steps
near the doors, but were removed be
fore any damage waa done.
A number or autolsts reported that
when they went to leave ohurch or
, a social call, they found the air let
out of their tires. Authorities re
ported few windshields were smeared.
They attributed this to an unwritten
law among the revelers not to mar
the vision of a driver.
Juveniles contented themselves
with "tick-tacks," wearing masks and
"trick or treat" demands. Residents
generally granted this concession and
passed out candy and won Immunity.
