Cop Saves Fish
On Way To School
Birmingham, England OF)
There was Derrick Strahan,
driving his goldfish to school.
As they drew near the
school for spastic children
where Strahan's wife teaches
and where he was going to
show the children the gold
fish, Derrick pulled up sharp
ly at an intersection.
A basket containing a bowl,
water and the goldfish fell off
the front seat, and the gold
fish flapped around on the
floor.
Strahan bent down to res
cue the fish and its bowl. His
foot slipped off the brake and
the car rolled on into an
other automobile that a po
liceman was parking.
The policeman, described in
court as "decent and hu
mane," first attended to the
unhappy goldfish. He got
water for the goldfish.
Then he charged Strahan
with careless driving. Strahan
was fined $5.60 Thursday.

Medford Resident
Has Same P. 0. Box
It would be difficult for
Glenn A. Abbott, 525 Albert
street, Medford, to forget the
number of his post office box.
He has had the same box num
ber for 47 years, according to
Moore Hamilton, Medford
postmaster.
The Abbotts came to Med
ford from Trimble, Ohio, in
1911, and rented a post office
box when the post office was
in the building that is now
occupied by the Western
Thrift store on North Central,
Hamilton said. When the new
post office was built on its pre
sent location, the Abbotts re
tained the same box number
and still have it.
Abbott worked at carpenter
work when he first came here,
but for the past 26 years has
been employed by the Med
ford Irrigation district. Hamil
ton added. In April the Ab
botts go to the intake, on the
North Fork of Little Butte
creek, and remain there for
the summer, returning to Med
ford early in October. Mrs.
Abbott knows every good fish
ing spot on the creek from the
canyon above the Connelly
place on down.
