2 Armed Bandits
Arrested in Plymouth
(Continued Crum Page One)
Williams. They had been alerted
by radio.
The officers in their respective .
police cars were in Plymouth's
downtown area checking cars
traveling on Ann Arbor trail.
Suddenly the bandit car turned
south on Main street off East Ann
Arbor trail.
Both cars gave chase and over-
took the bandit car in front of
62B South Main. One Df the thugs
leaped from the car and ran but
fell in the weeds and surrender-
ed in a whimpering tone begging `
the police not to shoot him. His
partner in crime remained in the
car and offered no resistance.
Thus, less than an hour after
the bold bandit pair began their
excursion into crime they were
in the Wayne County jail charg-
ed with robbery armed and theft
of a car. They are Floyd Hinton,
19, of 18755 Fenkeli, and Eugene
Swearinger, 24, of 15322 Mans-
field, both of Detroit.
Plymouth police reported that
the pair entered the lunchroom
of Ferris Steinhauer, 36, at 36441
Plymouth road, Livonia, and rob-
bed him of $45 at gunpoint. In
leaving they forced James Shet-
tleroe, 17, of 673 South Main
street, Plymouth, and four youth-
ful companions out of their car
and used it to escape in.
The entire episode is one to
bring lots of merit to the Ply-
mouth police and prove the value
of a county -wide police radio
hookup and the maintenance of
constant law enforcement agen-
cies in communities surrounding
Detroit.
Co-operation between depart-
ments is one of 'the things that
make it difficult for criminals to
operate. The speedy capture of
the pair early Tuesday proves
once more that crime does not
pay—at least not in Plymouth.

est abount your family or friends

Dependable Prescriptions
What's wrong with a one -passenger trOM ?
• You might praise its comfort and conve-
nience, if you happened to be the passenger. But
if others were waiting, we believe you'd agree
that sharing the trolley is a more practical plan.
The same principle applies to telephone ser-
vice. Many people have waited a long time for
a telephone, and sharing the lines means more
service for more people sooner.
That's why we are making the widest possi-
ble use of party -line facilities. When more cen-
tral office equipment and outside lines can be
provided, we'll be able to furnish one-party
service to everyone who wants it.
L9
Meanwhile, if you're on a party line, you
can help make service better for everyone by
following these simple suggestions:
1. When the line is in use, please don't interrupt
except in case of emergency.
2. Keep all calls as brief as possible.
3. Avoid making several calls in immediate
succession.
4. After every call, hang up carefully. One
receiver improperly replaced puts all the
telephones on the line out of service.

Wilcox was the winning team.
but Livonia Center has a fine
scrapping club. And something
new has been added to the Liv-

Who thought that one up? Con-
gratulations nevertheless, you are
on the job to back your teams
whether they win or loose. Bat-

not winning many games, but

regulations will not please most
of the duck hunters, because
without a doubt the season will

City Boys Help
Busy Farmers
The County Agricultural
Agents' office in Wayne and the
Detroit Farm Labor recruiting
office is doing a brisk business of
placing and supplying strong,
husky city boys to f a r m e r s
throughout Michigan to help out
in the current farm labor short-
age in the state. Haying time is
here and plenty of extra help
is needed.
Farmers in Michigan are very
well satisfied with this type of
help. Numerous boys have been
placed with farmers in this coun-
ty and are accomplishing a grand
job. Many other farmers in the
county who might be short of
farm help should contact the
County Agent's office on this type
of help.
The office has received an-
nouncements of training short
courses to begin in September at
Michigan State College. Special
training courses offered are as
follows:
1. Nursery and Landscape Man-
agement
2. Farm Equipment Service
ment.
4. Forest Practice.
More information on these
courses can be secured from. our
office or by writing directly to
Michigan State College, East
Lansing.
School children will not be
very happy over a possible new
use for television. Cameras con-
cealed in classrooms while pupils
are taking examinations will re-
cord any cribbing on a screen in
the principal's office.

For the first time in over 40 years, some Detroit
Edison customers are having to wait an un-
reasonably long time for connection to our
service. Even though our power plants, sub-
stations and high voltage lines are ready to
take care of new customers immediately,
transformers and other accessories for con-
necting them to our lines are hard to get.
Manufacturing problems of our suppliers
have slowed deliveries of such material.
Orders for new electric service are being,
filled immediately where lines can be run
from existing transformers. And requests for
service requiring the installation of new trans-
formers will be filled in turn as quickly ns
this material is available.
If you are waiting for electric service, please
bear with us. We are doing everything pos-
sible to hasten that service to you.

strain and measure the distance
from the bottom of the pedal to
the floorboard.
DANGER ZONE
If the distance is one inch or less,
your brakes are inefficient .
maybe dangerous. k
