Killing Pet Dog

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. II CUP)-
Mrs. Pat Fraley, wife of the wres-

go to Jail rather than kill her pet
bulldog.
"Tige.' 2-year-old pit bull. was
Judged vicious after he aSSertedly
bit Mrs. Alice Stainback, neighbor

Mrs. Fraley denied it, but was
overruled by Municipal Judge

IF you don't kill him." Judge
Call said, you'll go to jail"
My four children are crazyz
about Tige,' Mrs. Fraley said. 1T
will break their hearts"
She offered to move out OF town
or to give him away, but the judge
said that wouldn't do. Fraley, now
teaching Commando tactics to SOL
diers, called her from San Fran
cisco and told her to take the Jail
sentence.
"'Tige' has been a pet of the kids
since we brought him from Texas
when he was just little pup" he
said. Il can't kill him."
Mrs. Stainback was bitten when
she tried to separate "Tige" and
another dog, fighting.
Probation officers reported the
dog was not vicious and never had
bitten anyone Judge Call refused
to modify his stand.
Fraley was reported en- route here
to intercede.

Housing Units
Take Tenants

Civilian employees at the FL
Centre marine air station began
moving into the federal housing
units on South Fourth street in Ell
Centre this week and by Thursday
20 units were occupied.
That left 20 units still vacant.
Civilian employees at the station
have first choice of the units. If
they haven't taken all of them in
90 days, the military personnel at
the station may be assigned to them
until all are occupied. If the mill
tary personnel does not take all of
them, then civilians are in line for
them.
Maximum price for the units is
$3.50 fer a three bed room section.
Minimum price is $29.50 for Sleep
ing quarters and a kitchen. The
places are furnished and lights and
water are paid.
The housing authority commits
sioners are: George Kirk, chair
man; Father Edward Hutchinson,
executive secretary; Ole Kaiser, E.
A. Fitzhugh, Stevens Harris, and
w. j. McClelland.
1t is expected that the opening of
the unit will relieve the housing
