charge of the city police reporting
system lor Safe Driving Dav to
day, carefully examined the re
port of an accident which was re
ceived by" police at 12:03 a.m. this
morning, and decided it would not
count against Klamath Falls S-D
dav record.

not have reached a telephone in
two minutes. .
The accident was a hit and
run at the Intersection of Klam
ath Avenue and Eleventh Street,
George W. Randall. 121 Main
Street, reported that he was west
bound on Klamath when an uniden
tified auto ran the stop sign and
hit the right front fender and door
of his auto.
His car then slid on slippery
pavement inio a guy wire sup
porting a utility pole and knocked
down a parking meter. Investigat
ing officers reported finding the
grill of an auto which might have
been the hit and run car.
Klamath Falls, however, has had
two accidents. on Safe Driving Day.
Ia an accident at the same in
tersection at 8:40 a.m.. autos driv
en by James Allen Tlffee, 3008
, Cortez, and Richard Charley Vo
chatzer, 635 Willow, collided. Vo-
chatzer was cited for running a
stop sign, and posted $5 ball.
The oiher S-D Day driving ac
cident occurred at 8:05 a.m. at the
intersection of Martin and Orchard
streets. Autos driven by Cary Lee
Havid. 2403 Wantland, and Dagny
Corinne Kiger, 4704 Clinton, col
lided at the intersection. There
were no citations.
In another accident Wednesday,
which does not count against the
6-D record, an auto driven by
Charles Edward Johnson, 1023 El
dorado, hit a parked car owned
by Mellon B. Taylor, 1816 Espla
nnde. The incident occurred on
the 400 block on Michigan at about
8:10 p.m.
Johnson told investigating offi
cers that he was forced to the
side of the road by an unidenti
fied auto which was driving on the
wrong side of the street. Johnson
said that the driver of this auto
failed to dim his lights.and failed
to observe the stop sign at Espla
nade and Michigan.
