Many Offenses in Vagrancy Charge A wide range of offenses are included in one of Med- ford's ordinances, Chief of Po lice Charles P. Champlin said today. The charge of "vagrancy" includes a number of activi ties. Chief Champlin explain ed that many persons think of a vagrant only in terms of Webster s definition: "One who strolls from place to place; an idle wanderer; one who has no settled habita tion." The city ordinance (Code number 5-260) concerning vag rancy covers such acts as beg ging, associating with known thieves, being out during late and unusual hours, prostitu tion, possessing tools or other articles which might be used to commit a felony, possessing stolen articles, being without visible means of livelihood lodging in any place other than places which are kept for lodging purposes without permission of the owner, and living in or about a disorderly house. The police chief explained that the ordinance was written strictly for the protection of citizens' property and is sim ilar to the state statute (ORS 166.060).
