Two mail boxes on the Oleson Apartments, 5464 S. 1900 West., were molested Saturday. Charles Codes mail box was bent double and ripped. Glen Torskes box was torn ofPthe wall and thrown out in the alley. This box was fastened by four large screws and would have required some force in ripping the box from its wall. Tams Drive, 2350 W. 4400 South, had some of the mail boxes and posts pulled from the ground and strung up in the trees. The Roy Post Office is convinced this vandalism is the work of teen agers and we are sure they are not aware Roy is of the seriousness of these offenses. Below is a direct quote from the Post Office Manuel: Tampering with letter The willful injury boxes or destruction of any letter . box or other receptacle authorized by the Postmaster General for the receipt or delivery of mail is A FOR PENAL OFFENSE, .

Practically every state was represented with two from Africa and some from Canada, There were 500 guest Iris these are hypridized Iris grown from the growers own seedlings, When you realize one out of 10,000 seedlings is noteworthy, the effort behind the entries is staggering.
