Court Rules On Bird Feeding Feud At Geneva Walk
Judge Wiset will sentence the Steeds at 9 00 a.m. March 29 after neighbors reported attempts to poison birds with strychnine. Mrs Steed defended feeding birds while Leon Van Oosten corroborated objections. California law could impose six months in jail and a $500 fine for each party for disobeying the court order. The Steeds, honeymoon buyers in 1933, rued the need to move but argued for the right to feed birds.
