 SAAVEORA GOT HIS-Ramon Saavedra, associate editor of La Voce de la Puebla, gave the sheriffs office a spasm of pleasure yesterday after noon by taking the hook like a Salt river sucker.

A moment later when the weed exploded he jumped over the gas fixtures and shot through the door and the hallway leaving only a streak of smoke in his wake. In a second there were more deputy sheriffs on the scene than any body could have found in a week if the shot had come out of a gun. and that is no reflection on the deputies either, and it is giving Saavedra few points the best of it.
