MED any chance too save them

2. The equipment of a jail
is unusually costly since steel
cells, locks, and bars must be
of extremely high quality for
safety; crime detection eq-
uipment, telephone and ra-
dio communication must be
adequate and up to d a t e

placement in any caSe.) Plu-

reasonable by the Citizens

minimum needed in view of
the present population of the
county (at l per 1,000) but
space for expansion Is h e |
only is provided because fu-
ture growth of the county

Foreign Feline Visits
in Grosvenor Home

CLARIDON - Living hap
PLY in Geauga county is a
foreign cat, from Saudi Ara
bia to be exact. This unusual
cat has been adopted into the
Ralph Grosvenor home in
Claridon. He has seemed to
take over the household and
gives the impression that he
feels things there were plan
ned especially for him. H i S
name is Matilda. Perhaps
not too appropriate, but he
was chriStened when very
young and it was not thought
best to change it.
Matilda was brought to the
United States by Mrs. E. B.
Won Kleist of Texas. In April
1858 she was a captain in the
Air Force, q flight nurse. She
was stationed at Whaliron
Sandi Arabia.
A tiny kitten was found a.
bandoned and brought to the
hospital. 1t was only a few
days old. At first it was fed
with an eye dropper, t h e n
from a bottle. At the age of
four months Matilda h a d
shots for feline distemper
and rabies.
Last August, Mrs. Won Kl-
eiSS was released from SER
vice and returned to the Unit
ed States. She could not think
of leaving Matilda behind.
The cat was placed in a

the prosecutor he was driving
south on the highway about as
miles an hour and didn't see
the boys until they were dir
ectly in front of him. He saw
tn boy on the radiator but
said he didn't know there was
second boy until he had
stopped his car.

a head on collision with the
car. Sherff's deputies, who
measured the skid marks of
the car, indicated corroba-
ton of Mr.. DaviS'S statement.
