JUST A WONDERING If Charlie Cummins had his deer tied up as yet. If the local constable forgot the combination on the jail’s padlock. If some of the CCC boys or the locals picked up the boxing gloves. If some of the fair and rodeo fans have recuperated. If all our many visitors enjoyed the show. If Harry Dutton of the Lake County Tribune ever visited Cedarville or Surprise Valley – Ditto to Jim Van Winkle of the Examiner. If Ray Abrams heard the "Western Announcements". If Al Cox has got his rifle cleaned as yet. If Tom Wylie has got his bath yet. If this person, A. J. Harris, who sent in a long "open forum" knows what he is talking about, we mean about the hospital. If we sent same to Mrs. DeMotte for inspection before we published IT. If Traffic Officer William Smith returned the police whistle to the fire department. If Forest Ranger Noren told us the best place to get our buck. If Walt Hussa is still making wieners. If Cassie Johnstone’s infant cat has found its mother? If Billy Fenwick enjoyed the boxing bouts? If Ray Goldens’ and the judges decision was OK’d in the last bout Sunday night. AND If the Ed. really knows what he is talking about. HEADON COLLISION NEAR CLOVERSWALE As we go to press, a phone call informs us of a head-on collision near Cloverswale when the coupe driven by Mac McConnell and a car driven by Fred Rice of Adin came together. McConnell sustained two broken ribs and Miss June Pratt who was riding with him received a badly cut forehead. Rice and the occupants of the other machine escaped without injuries. Reports are that Rice will be given a citation for reckless driving. A Cedarville man was advised recently: "Pull down your window shades when you kiss your wife, I saw you from the street last night". To which he replied: "Hah that’s one on you. I wasn’t even home last night!" Warren C. Robinson left last Tuesday for Livermore, where he will enter the Veterans’ Hospital to undergo treatment indefinitely. We hope he may recover speedily and be back on the farm again soon. Yes sir, you’ve probably heard it or read it a million times, more or less, but because we think it clever we’re repeating it again – this Scotch telegram from the Kansas City Star: "Bruces hurt erased afford erector analysis too infectious dead." The meaning which the word saving Scotch-man intended to convey was this: "Bruce is hurt. He raced a Ford. He wrecked her. And Alice is too. In fat, she is dead." Fred Neasham, while lifting and helping to load the equipment belonging to the West Coast Amusement Co., severely injured his back and has been confined to his bed this week. LOWELL AND MORGAN CARS COLLIDE We inadvertently failed to mention the following story in last week’s issue of the Record: An automobile crash Monday evening at the north city limits of Lakeview caused a shudder among Round-up crowds when it was learned that the cars belonging to Chester Lowell of Fort Bidwell and Vancil Morgan of Paisley had collided with eleven passengers in the two vehicles. All were badly cut and bruised, but fortunately, as it turned out, none was dangerously injured. Mr. and Mrs. Lowell had as guests in their car, Misses Audrey Monroe, Florence Koughan and Adel Santiago, while Mr. and Mrs. Morgan had with them their family of four children. The Morgan car had started toward their home at Paisley when their light developed trouble and they fell in behind another car to return to Lakeview to have the lights repaired. Lowells were leaving the city to secure their grips at the hot Springs Hotel making ready to start for home. They passed a car just north of the city limits and for a moment did not see the unlighted car. On discovering it, Mr. Lowell believed it was a car going in the same direction as his and planning to pass it, turned to the left side of the road to go around but discovering the car was coming toward him, turned back to the right. In the confusion the cars came together with considerable force, resulting in much damage to fenders and glass. Occupants of the two cars were severely shaken and cut with flying glass but all escaped serious injury, it was discovered after brief treatment at the Lakeview hospital. – Lakeview Examiner LOCAL BRIEFS Mr. and Mrs. John Spalding of Susanville, spent Sunday here visiting with Mrs. Spalding’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. F.

NEWS NOTES FROM NEW PINE CREEK There was a car wreck on the Read Grade Sunday, when a car while passing another slid off of the Grade and rolled down the hill; the car contained three men from Willow Ranch, who were badly shaken but not seriously hurt was the word received here shortly after the wreck. Dr. Leithead was called from Lakeview and he must have found that they were not seriously hurt for they were sent to their homes. ~~~~~~ Billie C. & Anita 'Jean' Reynolds Family Researcher of "The Last Frontier" Modoc County, California --- Our outgoing mail is checked by ZoneAlarm AntiVirus.
