Poore 2-Tuienelnv, August Inn ,R_7Tkh AA;r-k;.-.,r.i Today The weather Cooler temperatures and clear skies are expected today with highs in the mid 70s. Potted plants POLICE CHIEF James Bivens' green thumb attracted some atten- tion recently in Bluefield, West Virginia, and now the chief has had to uproot all but two of the waist-high marijuana plants growing near his office. One afternoon, the five potted plants were spotted sitting in the sun by a reporter for the local Daily Telegraph. The reporter mentioned the flora to Mercer County prosecutor David Knight. Less than one hour later, Bivens announced that "three or four" dying plants had been destroyed. Bivens, however, defended the department's possession of marijuana. "We use them as a visual aid display for visitors to the department and when officers give speeches to civic groups," he said. i . Teen siren CITY OFFICIALS in Perkin, Arkansas have devised a way to enforce curfew fules that is even better than the proverbial parent's voice- the wail of a siren. Lawmakers in Perkin hope the siren, normally used for weatheralerts, will remind people under the age of 18 that the town's 10 p.m. curfew for minors is in effect. Patrolman Buddy Young, who sounded the curfew siren for the first time last Sunday, said police don't fine teenagers returning home from events such as movies or baseball games-so long as they go straight home. "If they just start driving around in town . . . then they are violating the curfew," Young said. The fine for breaking curfew is $25.
