Regional Roundup
by Cleve Twitched
Mail Tribune Regional Editor
This is the first summer in quite some time that your
regional editor has spent living on standard time. Like
all stories, there are two sides to the matter. I like the
idea of watching TV programs an hour earlier, although
in a few instances programs that used to be on at 7 p.m.
have now been switched to 10 o'clock in order to avoid
conflicting with the 6 o'clock news. It's also rather nice
to be able to listen to a baseball game being played in
San Francisco or Los Angeles and still get to sleep early.
But there are other considerations. For instance, if
you look over the weather chart you'll find that the sun
rises at around 4:30 a.m. standard time. I noticed that
fact one Saturday night when I was working at the office
here. I left for home at 11:30 p.m. with the realization
that the sun should be up in five hours. Needless to say,
it was a rather tiring realization.
Middle-Of-Tha-Night Call
The election in Siskiyou county, Calif., last week had
repercussions in Medford early June 6. About 1:30 a.m.
Medford Police Detective Lt. Lyle C. Perkins was awak
ened at his home by a telephone call from Yrcka inform
ing him that Sheriff Al Cottar had lost the election. The
caller asked the Medford officer if he could line up
jobs in the area for the chief criminal deputy and the
undersheriff in Siskiyou county.
Perkins, upset at the news, did some checking before
he arrived at the Medford police station and managed to
get some jobs for the two men. Later he was informed
that Cottar had not lost, but won the election. Later in
the day another call from Yreka (this one for real) in
vited Perkins and other detectives to an election party
at the Shamrock which was attended by 150 persons.
Strawberry War?
I haven't noticed any gas wars lately, but a straw
berry price war seems to be brewing among the fruit
and vegetable stands on highway 99 between Medford
and Phoenix. A week ago, I priced strawberries at one
of the stands and found them to be $3 a crate. Later,
last week, one of the stands had cut the price to $2.89.
Then over the week end, two stands advertised $2.69.
Yesterday morning, one of the stands posted a $2.49 a
crate. I hope the fellows keep it up. Strawberries are
one of my weaknesses.

HAVE
Haggard had explained to the
committee during a special
meeting last week at the fire
station.
A second battery will be
hooked up on the engine in
case the main battery should
go out. The committee also
decided to purchase chemicals
to flush out the fire engine
tank to clean out rust and
other sediment which may
have settled in it.
As requested by Mrs. A. C.
Reese, fire department com
mittee member. Haggard
sounded the siren last night to
announce that a fire depart-
'ment drill was being held
