MB ml Popular Holland Hotel MAO, TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON Rifle-Shot Damage Noted by Company Extensive rifle-shot damage to ceramic insulators on high voltage transmission lines of Pa cific Power & Light Company in the local area since deer hunting season began has prompted the company to issue a warning to nimrods. "There is real danger to hunt ers, who might be under the high-voltage circuits if they drop to the ground due to the gunshot damage, or to other persons who might be injured if the lines break and drop to the ground unexpectedly some time later, the company s dis trict manager, F. A. Benesh, said. The PPSL manager reported there has been a greater num ber of insulators broken this year than in past seasons. 'One result, of such gun-shot damage that should be remem bered is the inconvenience caus ed to many people when outages occur as the result of short cir cuiting due to insulators that have been broken or shattered by gunfire." he said. It was explained that the short-circuiting can occur be cause of rain on the damaged equipment. When it occurs at night, the PP&L crews cannot patrol the isolated transmission lines by helicopter to visually spot the trouble. As a result the restoration of service is delay ed, Benesh added.
