Youth Spends Past
Summer Traveling
Throughout U. S.
Charley Goodman, 20, who
spent the summer traveling
throughout the United States,
is expected home soon to visit
his family on Griffin Creek
rd.
He is a son of Mr. and Mrs.
Ted J. Goodman. Two sisters,
Theodora and Sally, also are
at home and an older brother,
Jesse Lynn, is in the Navy.
Charley, a graduate of Med
ford High school and former
Oregon State college student,
left home last April to look
for work in California. He
wrote his family May 6 and
'did not contact them again
until he sent a wire last week.
He had visited 32 states
since leaving California July
23 with a bed roll and $230.
He sent his worried parents
the wire after fellow work
ers in Sacramento told him
that they had seen. his pub
lished picture and read that
his family was seeking his
whereabouts.
His father, who is in charge
of maintenance for Western
Union in Klamath Falls, al
ready had received several
telegrams from pother persons
indicating that Charley was
r all right. One was from a
woman in Salinas, Calif., who
had met him on a guided tour
of New York City.
Mrs. Goodman said that
they had also received a let
ter earlier from a woman in
Omaha, Neb., who said she
had met Charley in New
York.
Because" of his apprehen
sion, Charley's father trav
eled to Sacramento to see for
himself how his son was far
ing, and found Charley em
ployed in a peach cannery.
Charley was surprised that
the family had been worried.
The woman in Nebraska
told the Goodmans that Char
ley plans to return to school,
but the family will be happy
just to see him return home.

Pigmy Rattler Isn't Fatal
But You'd Better Avoid Him
As far as size is concerned,
the so-called ground rattler
does not amount to much.
Neither does, the word
"ground" indicate any out
standing characteristic, as all
snakes spend most of their
lives on the earth.
But these little fellows are
ununusal inasmuch as they
are about the smallest of the.
rattlesnake family, so natural
ly they are often called the
"pigmy rattler." Seldom, if
ever, do they exceed 18 inches
in length, and they are about
as large around as a lead
pencil.
But they are true rattle
snakes with the power to
strike, and equipped at birth
with poison sacs and sharp
fangs. They even have a set
of diminutive rattles on the
tail. Many people are bitten
by this tiny rattlesnake, but
seldom is the bite fatal. The
bite does cause pain, swelling
and a feeling of extreme nau
sea. Like his larger relatives,
the pigmy rattler rattles for
all he's worth when excited,
and strikes at the same time.
However, the rattle does not
have the ominous sound of the
large rattlers. It sounds more
like the buzzing of an insect.
Usually the sound cannot be

heard over six oreight feet
away, but at a closer approach
by a tormentor the buzz be
comes persistent. Surprising
to hear all the fuss and fury
from such a diminutive rep
tile.' Silver Dollar Size
When in a coil or striking
position, the pigmy rattler
doesn't look much larger than
a silver dollar. Because of his
small size, many children try
to pick the reptile up, think
ing it is cute. Drop for drop,
this pocket-sized edition has
a very potent venom, and in
general his temper is as short
as his body.
Of course, a person bitten
by a poisonous snake is affect
ed in direct proportion to the
amount of venom injected in
relation to the victim's weight,
or by volume. Naturally the
amount of venom in the midg
et rattler is rather small.
The pigmy rattler has a'
gray, slate-covered body, with
a row of jet black saddles
along the back. Interspersed
in between these "black mark
ings are dashes of a reddish
hue. Ordinarily he lives in
dry areas where low vegeta
tion is growing, although some
are found in or around low
places such as swamps or
marshes. It is misleading to

Tongue Point Sailors
Hurt in Auto Upset
Woodburn - (UPD - Three
Tongue Point sailors were
hospitalized by a Saturday
night one-car crash on the
Baldock freeway about two
miles north of here.
David O. Delker, 33, Robin
C. Harmer, 20, and Charles
J. Kemp, 22, were all taken
to St. Vincent hospital in
Portland.
State police said the sailors'
car slid off the freeway and
overturned.
state "they always live in
dry areas."
He's Pretty
Actually, the ground rattler
is a rather pretty little fellow,
provided you can overcome
your natural aversion to poi
sonous reptiles and agree with
the scientists that snakes are
a beautiful and interesting
form of animal life.
For those few who are in
terested in the anatomy of
snakes, the scales on the top
of the pigmy rattlesnake's
head are a study in geometri
cal arrangement ... a regu
larly arranged shield on the
top of the head. Like all mem
bers of the Crotalus, they also
have the deep pits on either
side of the head located be
tween the ear and the eye
which indicates "pit vipers."
They may be small, these
Lilliputian rattlers, but they
are vicious. Although their
bite is seldom fatal to a hu
man, they are enough like
their larger cousins to war
rant being left strictly alone.
