glove compartment which smelled
to him as if it had marijuana in it.
After discovering this, he said,
he called Deputy Sheriff James
Sisson to come to the scene with a
search warrant for the car.
Sisson testified that he had
tested the residue in the pipe with a
field test kit for marijuana and that
it had tested positive. He said he
also tested a few crumbs and a seed
of some vegetable substance which
was found on the floor board of
the car, and, that this tested
positive also.
K. M. Sweeny, a criminologist
with the Seattle Police
Department, testified that the pipe
had been brought to his
laboratory, and, that he had tested
it and found it positive for
marijuana.
Coffey, taking the stand in his
own behalf testified that he knew
the pipe was in the glove
compartment of the vehicle, and,
that he had used it to smoke
marijuana two or three months
previously, and, that as far as he
was concerned, the pipe was
empty.
In his decision, Correa stated
that the amount of marijuana
found in the pipe was so small and
not useable that it did not, in his
opinion, qualify under the legal
definition of possession.
He said he had some doubt that
the substance found on the
floorboard was really marijuana.
The Mason County
Commission, at its meeting
Monday, set 2 p.m. May 4 for a
public hearing on the

The commission received
petitions from the Kamilche area
asking for formation of a fire
district, either through
annexation to the Arcadia Fire
District or as an independent
district.
Dave Whitener, who presented
the petitions, told the commission
that the area hoped to be able to
accomplish the fire protection
through annexation.
He asked that the county
auditor validate the signatures
which were on the petitions.
He stated the Kamilche group
hm,~ a meeting scheduled with the
commissioners of the Arcadia
District, and, will know better
which way they will proceed after
that meeting.
