Laughing At
Park Bears
Is Dangerous
The story of the Three Bears la
nothing compared to the Indignant
story of one bear a Klamath Palls
bear told by a Medford couple,
Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Thompson.
The Thompsons spent a day re
cently at Moore park, en.io.ving a
picnic lunch and the park a rec
reation facilities. A walk up to the
animal cages was the start of their
troubles.
They laughed at the bears an
tics until the animal, perhaps of
fended, leaped into his pond,
drenching his visitors with dirty
wster.
This bear story was told In a let
ter to Chamber of Commerce Man
ager Charlea Stark with a footnote
that it be turned over to the prop
er authorities. Stark obliged by
giving It to Mayor Robert Thomp
son and the city council.
Mrs. Thompson thinks a sign
warning visitors of the bears wa
ter splashing traits should be post
ed near his case and what s more,
she will be giad to send the city
a duplicate of her cleaning bill.

Be Dangerous
NEW YORK c;P Its easier for
today's kite-flying youngsters to
draw electricity down a kite string
than when Benjamin Franklin made

says Prank L. Jones, president of

more dangerous.
Jonea says that if a kite comes

dicted on two morals charges,
moved steadily ahead today over
frequent objections of Defense At
torney V. 8. Balentlne.
The attorney haa entered objec

Harrington la bring tried on an
Indictment accusing him of sodomy

A statement in which he essertedly
admitted the act was admitted as
evtdrure this morning. The state
ment was made by Harrington In
the district attorneys office on
March 19. and shorthand notes were
admitted aa evidence although a
typewritten transcription of the
notes was not.
Consequently, Mrs. Doris Seaaom.
who was a stenographer in the dis
trict attorney s olfice at the lime of
the statement, as bring required
to read and interpret her notes on
Harringtons stattment before the
all-male jury.
Balenttne asked tor a mortal to
have the case thrown out of court
when Deputy Sheriff Marlon
Barnes mentioned from memory
that Harrington had a previous
conviction he did not say for what
in 1039. Balentine contended that
Barnes' testimony was prejudicial
to the defendant and that the de
fens mas not bring given a chance
to object. But Circuit Judge David
R. Vandenberg denied the motion
and the trial moved slowly anead.
