His lucid brown eyes were centered far down the street. His clumps of gray whiskers twitched searching ly, and he was a little nervous because he was in town. But still he was able to share his attention with others. Many stopped by in admiration, and he was quick with a hand shake. Pierre wore a gray coat curly like a lamb's and a tur quoise leather neckpiece set with simulated rhinestones. His hair style was known as a "square cut" with a distinct band clipped down his back and likewise one around his waist. Neck and paws were perfectly trimmed, too. When at home he can dance and perform, and he owns many fine ribbons lrom tne show world. When in the busi ness of entering shows he is attired in a "show cut," a style of coat trim different from his present one. Pierre is a miniature French poodle, the middle size ir poodledom. He was in Med ford recently from Gold Hill, and was waiting patiently on the bench at Main and Cen tral with his master, Allan Reed. Pierre was waiting for Mrs. Reed who had gone shopping. Pierre has been with the Reeds for three years, cats lightly, and was flown hero from California at the age of three months.

MEDFORD, OREGON Regional Roundup by Cleve Twitched Mail Tribune Regional Editor Ashland Police along with other valley police depart ments are finding that the crowds of tourists passing through on their way to the World's Fair at Seattle are creating some problems. Wherever large numbers of people assemble, there are bound to be various sorts of con men attempting to cash in on the situation. Ashland police were fortunate enough to apprehend such an individual in the act the other day. His pitch went like this: He telephoned the Manor Motel and identified himself as a minister calling from Portland and explained that his (on, also a minister, would be arriving at the motel soon but would be short on cash. He asked if the motel operators wouldn't be so kind as to loan his son enough money to buy a few meals and give him a room for the night, assuring them that he would arrive the next day and pay them back. Then about 15 minutes later the man, posing as the son, arrived at the motel and asked if his fatther was there. The motel operators explained that his father had just phoned from Portland, and they gave him a room and some money. He then hurried out the dbor. The operators were suspicious enough to follow up on the character. Through an involved set of circumstances they happened to discover about an hour later that he had used the same story to wrangle some cash out of the Ashland YMCA. And then a little while later they spot ted him in the act of pulling the same line a third time at the Mark Antony. Police were summonded and the man, Theodore Robert Terry, 38, of Los Angeles, was arrested. He pled guilty in Ashland Municipal Court Tuesday morning to a charge of defrauding an innkeeper, was fined $25 and was given a sentence of 10 days in jail. The sentence was suspended upon the condition that he make $19 restitution and leave town. That Palm in Phoenix I'm happy to see that the palmistry sign on high way 99 on the north side of Phoenix is back up again. I owe something to that sign. It taught my 2-year-old son the word hand. He holds up one or both of his hands every time we drive by.
