CHECKER CAB The Courtesy Cab com
pany of Medford has added a "Checker 'cab"
to its fleet of taxicabs. According to John
Hill, (pictured standing by the cab) the ve-'
hide is made by a firm in Kalamazoo,
Mich., especially for use as a taxi-cab. It
is higher, wider and more interior room than
the average passenger car; and the back

door is wide enough to facilitate a wheel
chair. Hill said Checkei cabs are widely
used by companies in the East, but not so
much on the West Coast. He said if the cab
proves acceptable to the Medford public, the
company may convert its entire five-car
fleet to Checker cabs.

'Beehive' Activity
Noted at Domiciliary
White City - Beehive ac
tivity in the morning hours
is the word picture of the
V 1 e r ans Administration
domiciliary. White City, as
the housekeeping and other
hundreds of chores are per
formed by the veteran mem
bers. But Postmaster Art Scar
seth scratched his head
Thursday morning and
wondered what to do with
a post office receiving ship
ment of a hive of the real
thing bees.
Seems thai Daniel Frank
lin, domiciliary member il
branching out his enter
prises. Not long ago he re
ceived 500 sweet potato
plants and now comes the
honey makers.
Scarseth's dilemma posed
a problem what if they
should get loose in the sev
en miles of corridors in the
domiciliary and got mad. -
He solved it by calling
the security guards who
convoyed the bulling ship
ment to a spot half a mile
from the station grounds
where Franklin, his' sweet
potatoes and bees are in
production.
