Personally
Speaking
By JOHN STAFFORD
Americans are curious peo
ple. Curiosity isn't to be con
demned. It accomplishes much
good. Scientists need to be
curious or no progress would
be made. In its broadest ap
plication, curiosity is respons
ible for all of our efforts to
put a man in space. We want
to know what's out there.
Newspaper reporters need
to have curiosity also. They've
go to be interested in what's
going on in the world and
spread the news to millions
of readers. Many times it is
the news story of a reporter
who was curious that reveals
an injustice being done to
someone or a national or in
national event of great im
portance. Day to day news re
porting requires curiosity also.
Thus, last Wednesday night
when we were in the Mail
Tribune news room, we won
dered where the fire trucks
were going as they raced
' south on Central ave. It didn't
take long to find out. Stand
ing in Medford, one could see
' the sky to the south glowing.
It obviously was a big fire
and with this in mind, we
raced after the fire trucks.
A two-story home on Car
penter Hill rd. near Phoenix
was eventually leveled by
ihe blare. However, the
story that unfolded as the
firemen attempted to battle
the flames taught us a les-4-
son we won't soon forget.
In major'disaslers the curi
osity of Americans some
times is a handicap.
: The Mail Tribune account
of the fire made reference to
remarks made by Chief Gor
don Barker of the Medford
fire department.
"Chief Barker said that the
firemen operated under ex
treme handicap caused by the
traffic congested roads and
driveways in the immediate
vicinity of the fire."
"He said that the fire was
fought by relaying water from
the department's tankers to
the pumper. Because ol cun
osity-seekers, the tankers had
difficulty getting close enough
to the house where the pump
er was parked. After each
tanker was emptied it had
similar trouble leaving the
area to refill," the story said.
The chief's remarks were
too mildly worded, in our
opinion. The actions of some
curiosity seekers bordered on
being ridiculous. The road
leading to the house was about
300 yards long and one lane.
The house was only accessible
on this road. Yet some indi
viduals insisted on driving
their cars down the road and
parking along the side. One
person didn't even bother to
pull to the side. He parked
. right in the center.
Work of the firemen was
complicated by having to
bring water to the scene in
tankers. The tanker trucks
were wide and took up most
of the road. They couldn't
get by parked cars. Valu
able time was lost locating
owners of these cars and
having them removed. Fire
men even attempted going
around the cars by leaving
the road. This made matters
worse. Ground on each side
of the road was soft and the
trucks got stuck.
One man died in the blaze.
Whether he could have been
saved isn't known. The fire
was raging fiercely by the
time firemen could get to the
scene. However, actions of
some curiosity-seekers didn't
help the man's chances.
Everyone likes to be at the
scene of a major news event.
However, when our presence
complicates the job being done
by the major actors of the
event, we should remain at
home.
This is particularly true at
fires. Many trucks ai"' hun
dreds of feet of hose : nor
mally used, increasing the
chances of some spectator get
ting in the way.
Why were we there? Be
cause it's our job to report
and take pictures of such
news events. This is what
we're paid to do. We aren't
seeking excitment. On many

best growth. For best results,
trees should be kept in a shad

When planted outdoors, the
bark container should not be
removed. The bark will even
