Santa Clap Advised To Leave Dangerous Toys at North Pole Dr. Krusen Points to Accidents in Oth er Years Caused by Shot-gun s, Rifles and Airplanes. Suggests Substitutes Santa Claus , take note ! All flying machines , shotguns , rifles, bows and arrows , and other such toys should be left at the Nor th Pole this year. These toys are dangerous , and every year af ter Christmas the hospitals handle cases of boys and girls who have beer injured , some of them losing their eyesight , declares Dr . Wilmer Krusen , Direc tor of the Department of Public Health , of Philadel phia. Instead of shotguns , Dr . Krusen suggests outdoor toys—sleighs , bicycles, and express wagons, or indoor games which arouse the interest of the child , so that he may learn to play for himself and develop inde pendence of thought. ¦ There are other dan gerous toys, too. Little girls have a habit of asking for sewing sets and Christmas morning finds them playing with a pair of scissors. And it is not unusual for the scissors to slip, with disastrous resul ts. Buttons and Beads Dangerous In these sewing sets are but tons and beads which attract the attentio n of the younger children . Accordin g to Dr. Krusen , the y put them in their mouths and often swallow them. But a toy doesn 't necessarily have to be big to be entertaining. A small toy, Dr. Krusen says, sometimes gives more pleasure. "The child 's mental development is oft times greatly influenced by the type of toys selected ," he said. "He is likely to have a greater interest in the smaller inexpensive toys which may be broken •without fear of reprimand rather than those tha t are more expensive .and which we must handle with great care. 'It is well after purchasing toys and after their use to inspect them for loose par t icles which children are apt t o place in t he mouth." Advises Careful Selection Dr. Rober t A. Brotemark le, pro fessor of psychology at the University of Penn-sylvania, feels that a careful selection of toys has a lasting effect upon children . "Toys and tools are the means by which the individual masters his en-vironment, " he declared . "Give him the wron g kind and you handicap him in learnin g how to master life. Dr. Bro temarkle explained the various periods in a child 's life and listed a number of toys tha t should be given at each period . For the ver y youn g child , ra tt les, spools, teething rings , soft dolls and books with lar ge illustrations and brillian t ly colored pictures are the most desirable toys. Next comes the age of hobb y-horses , wheelbarrows , boats , trains , toy furniture , dolls and tool sets. Between 7 and 12 years , when t he child is ac tive physicall y, sleds, toys , building material and athle tic equipment are most desirable. "The age of 12 is followed by the expressive period which is typified by the eager pursuit of some hobby , " con-tinued Dr . Bro temarkle , "and in this age the playthings for the boy ought to be real tool sets and chemical sets, in whose possession he will take pride and will act as an incentive toward creating something which interests. The girl of this age begins to seek those thin gs which will be of use to her life, such as small articles of wear and dr ess." Christmas Part y At Y. W. C. A. A Chris tmas party under th e auspices of the Senior Christian Endeavor So-ciety of the First Unit ed Brethren Church , will be held in the Y. W. C. A. social room on Frida y evening, Dec. 24th at 8 o'clock. An interestin g program is being arranged. There will be fun for ever yone.

Last week Mr. Erb . journe yed to Potter County in quest of bear , and before taking leave of Hockersville had promised much bear steak for all of the town 's citizens. The weather in Pot ter County was not favorable for bear hun ting, but nothin g daunted , Mr . Erb set out to bring in Brer Bruin. After spending several days in seeking out his quarry, Mr. Erb finall y detected bear footprints , and he vigilantly fol-lowed the trail. For two days did Mr. Erb continue in this arduous work , over hill and dale , up steep mountains and throu gh dense forests , all the while burdened down with his rifle and bear trap. Feelin g assured that he was nearing t he habita t of the bear , he set his tra p, and expectantly awaited results. Early next morning he returned to the trap and in great glee found that he had been rewarded—for in the trap was a porcu-pine. With a heav y hear t and tired feet he retraced his steps to the camp. Not downcast because he had trailed a por-cupine instead of a bear , but because the citizens of Hockersville would have to eat turke y instead of bear on Christmas Day. Olivets Defeat Burnham 28-25 The Olive ts showed tha t they can play baske tball when they defeated Burn-ham on Saturday, Dec. 11, on the Burn-ham floor . This is the first time Brun-ham has been defea ted on their own floor for the last four yearc and the Hershe y boys are proud of their achieve-ment as they had heretofore been a victim of these coal miners on every occasion that they played in Burnham. It was a fast and ver y rou gh game resemblin g an old-time football game includin g ever ythin g except pullin g hair . Durin g the first half no tea m had a lead over the opposing team by more than two points and the first half ended 15-13 in favor of Hershe y. The first ten minu tes of the second half was wild with Hershe y piling up a lead of ten points , the score being 25-15 with ten minutes to play . At this point of the game the miners must have realized that defeat was star-ing them in the face because they started to play with renewed strength but they had waited too long and the game ended 28-25.

Mr. Enterllne , a senior of the Com-mercial Department of the Elizabeth-town College, 1h subs tituting In her department , during her absence. Alibi Some folks know their garlic better than the onions , While other! are content with smelling cheese, They are strongest for limburger—it 's reci procal— Limbur ger is the strongest , too, for these . Some folks think a whiskey breath is so much better When brea thed about among less lucky friends ; And you often find a man who thinks a smelly pipe A homelike spiri t to a closed car lends . You have met the guy who treats his rheumatizm With liniment that so unearthly smells His poor house-cat , breathing it , lost her nine lives at once, And went to (we suppose) t hat man y hells. Surely the poor chap who always does his work well, Someone should tell him nicely to his • face Tha t , unless he does awa y with his un-wholesome bre ath, He never , never will get any place. Since in life I ' ve never made a lot of head way, My mood to-day both sad and lachry-mose is, But a ra y of sunshine brightens this , my darkest hour , I'll la y my failur es all to halitosis. At You Have Observed W Sheer stockings cc^ver a multitu de of shins. Doc Drake Discovers Life is not all sunshine by any means and a person must take the storm and the calm , the wet and the dry, the rain and the shine , the cold and th e warm , yes, he must take them all as they come. And when a ra y of sunshine , such as slan ted our way the other day, makes its way into our dreary existence we should do our ver y best to give it an hospitable welcome. We hadn 't seen old . Doc Drak e of Libert y Cross Roads for some time. So last Sunda y we paid him a visit. "Well," said Doc, "I see you ar e still smokestackin g over there at Hers hey. To tell you the tru th, I never did have much fai th in your ideas nor could I see much to your jokes until 1 went down to Philadel phia to th e Sesqui-Centen nial. I guess it must have given me a taste for the finer things of life, going down there. But wha t I was going to say I was look-in g at some of the papers Ben Fran klin printed and I saw three or four smoke-stack jokes in them , Ri ght away I began to figure if your jokes were good enou gh for Ben Fran klin to use and to be kept in circulation all the years from seven teen something to now, they must be good." This lit tle bit of praise so cheered us that we have felt bett er ever since. A li ttle heartfelt prais e is a wonde rful thing, folks , and if ever you think any-thing nice like the above about us let us have it right away as accidents are ha ppening everyday and either you or we or all of us ma y be here to-day and gone to-morrow. Nothin g so chagrins a would-b e joker as to pretend you think he is in earnest . Tha t we know from experience . One time we were buying an elbow for a stovepipe. In the store was a neat pile of elbows with the ends fitted to-gether , four elbows forming a sort of square circle. "Gosh , " we said to the clerk , "them is the funniest stove pipes I ever saw. There is no hole in to them and what good can such a stove pipe do that tak es the draft around and around and never lets it out. " The clerk looked a t us in amazem ent , exhaled forcibl y as if to expr ess his con-tempt for any one so brainless . Then he explained. "Wh y you don 't think each one of those circles is just one piece of pipe , do you? Look at it carefully. There , Don't you see there are four pieces with the ends together for conveni ence in shi pping that s ail. ' " Worse Luck I t was in Twin Peaks Tunnel. Some-thin g happened to the lights and they all wen t out for a moment. When they came back a woman complained to the conductor , "Somebody kissed me." "Gwan! " growled a workma n , "you ain 't got no kick. Somebody swiped me veal cu tlet. Now what do yuh think o' that? " ""'Mnnife.tl y Unlikely "Th e new ministe r must he mad ," said the village woman meeting anot her of the parishioners on the street . "He told my husband who weighs 240 poun ds to beware lest he he weighed in the balan ce and found wanting. Fable Once upon a time there was a cert ain bootlegger crossing the Great Americ an Deser t.

Fields ' first starrin g vehicle for Paramoun t , "It' s the Old Arm y Game , " which will be shown at the Hershey Central Theatre on Thurs-da y evening, Dec. 23d , at 7.30 o'clock. From star t to finish, the film is punc-tuated by giggles, guffaws and laughs. All of which merriment might be caused by any number of reasons. First , W. C. Fields , makin g his debut as an hones t-to-goodness movie star in this comed y, is one of the most amusing men the screen has ever known. Second , Eddie Sutherland , the director , is a fellow well versed in dis tr ibuting laughs. Then there is piquant pert little Louise Brooks , fea tured along with Mr . Fields. She contributes a performance second onl y to that given by the star. A fine cast which includes Mickey Bennett , Blanche Rin g, Mary Foy and William Gaxton , is mi ghty capable and could not use ver y much improvement. And las t but , not least , we find that J oseph P. McEvoy wrote the ori ginal play which was adapted to the silver sheet by Tom Gcraghty and J. Clarkson ^Miller . The st ory is sligh t. Merely that of a dru g store chemist who becomes in-volved in a scheme to sell New York lots to Florida real estate men. Strange to relate—-it works! • Printers Defeat Office Even tho they did not have Harry Fasnach t in the lineup, who is on the sick list , the Printers on Tuesday eve-ning, nevertheless , romped over the Pen Pushers rubberstam plng them to the splash of 57->44. The Pen Pushers , Rubber Stam pers , and the Mail Sorte cs started out with a whirl , and when Referee Busehore blew the whistle at the ending of first half , the y were in the lead by one point. But the Pen Pushers , Rubb er Stamp-ers and Mail Sorters had shot their bolt , and they became dizzy trying to stop the Printers , who cavor ted around the floor lik e three-year-olds , and who , wi t h agility, nimbleneHs and sensa tionally r¦ ained in field goal after field goal. The Pen Pushers , Rubb er Stampers and Mail Sorters did everything in their power t o stop the whirlwinds , Harold Hummer , Carl Smi th nnd Edgar Leib-frled , bu t the close guarding of Sam, Dissinger and Carlton Grace put all their efforts to naught. Gcrlnch was the outstanding star for the Pen Pushers , Rubber Stampers and Mail Sor ters. Printing Dept.

Now in Dauphin County Jail W. A. Simmons, 58, a farmer of near Hummels town, is confined in the Dau-phin County jail pending the outcome of the condi tion of Charles Neiswenger , of Palmyra , who was run down by Sim-mons on Monda y evening abou t 5.30 o'clock . In addition to being charged with drivin g while drunk , Simmons is char ged with failure to stop and render assistance af ter hi tt ing Neiswenger, who is em-ployed by the State Highway Depart-ment and was putting lanterns along the road when the auto hit tim. Simmons is also held in other char ges. Among these are failure to stop and render assistance after colliding with two automobiles , reckless drivin g and havin g demolished a light post. Simmons , who was drivin g a Dodge Sedan , previous to th e accident , drove up Java avenue and ran into one of the large light posts , which stands in fron t of Geor ge Gerth' s residence. The light post was hur led to the ground by the impact of t he Dodge, and in an almost miraculous manner , missed the machine. Geor ge Dressier and George Gerth , who ha ppened along at this time , en-deavored to detain Simmons until the police could be notified , but were unable to do so. Simmons had a negro with him, but who made a quick exit after the accident. Undaun ted, and alone , Simmons proceeded on his way and sped up Choc-olate avenue , and near the Hershe y Trus t Company building, he almost collided ^ with Paul Witmer , -who was drivin gTiis Ford coupe. Even this close shave did not stop Sim-mons' progress , and when he neared the Hershe y fillin g stat ion, he ran into Oliver Keek 's Ford coupe. Mr . Keck had driven out of the filling station and was driving down West Chocola t e avenue , headin g east , when he saw the speeding Dodge Sedan , which was coming directly toward him. Mr. Keck was well on his side of the road , bu t pulled over as much as it was poss-ible for him to do so, bu t was unable to preven t being hit by Simmon 's car. As a result of th e impact his front wheel and fender were smashed , and a sprin g was broken . Even this did not stop Simmons , nor did he stop after he hit Neiswenger , which happened a short distance beyond t he Hershe y fillin g station , but con-tinued to speed toward Swatara as tho not hin g had occurred . Keck , af ter bein g hit , got out of his car in all haste , and ran up Chocola te avenue . Espying a Ford truck that was standin g near the filling stat ion he jumped into it and sped after Simmons. Simmons , when he reached the Swa-tara subwa y, turned off his lights and parked his car in the subway. Simmons was abou t to leave t he car when Keck came up to him, who prevented him from doin g so. While t hus engaged another au tomobile from the west entered the subway. The driver of this car saw the parked car in the diml y lighted subway just in time to avoid a collision. At this time Officer Lafferty and Sergean t McLauren of t he Hi ghwa y Pa trol arrived at the subway, ana Sim-mons was arrested. U. B.

Santa Clap Advised To Leave Dangerous Toys at North Pole Dr. Krusen Points to Accidents in Oth er Years Caused by Shot-gun s, Rifles and Airplanes. Suggests Substitutes Santa Claus , take note ! All flying machines , shotguns , rifles, bows and arrows , and other such toys should be left at the Nor th Pole this year. These toys are dangerous , and every year af ter Christmas the hospitals handle cases of boys and girls who have beer injured , some of them losing their eyesight , declares Dr . Wilmer Krusen , Direc tor of the Department of Public Health , of Philadel phia. Instead of shotguns , Dr . Krusen suggests outdoor toys—sleighs , bicycles, and express wagons, or indoor games which arouse the interest of the child , so that he may learn to play for himself and develop inde pendence of thought. ¦ There are other dan gerous toys, too. Little girls have a habit of asking for sewing sets and Christmas morning finds them playing with a pair of scissors. And it is not unusual for the scissors to slip, with disastrous resul ts. Buttons and Beads Dangerous In these sewing sets are but tons and beads which attract the attentio n of the younger children . Accordin g to Dr. Krusen , the y put them in their mouths and often swallow them. But a toy doesn 't necessarily have to be big to be entertaining. A small toy, Dr. Krusen says, sometimes gives more pleasure. "The child 's mental development is oft times greatly influenced by the type of toys selected ," he said. "He is likely to have a greater interest in the smaller inexpensive toys which may be broken •without fear of reprimand rather than those tha t are more expensive .and which we must handle with great care. 'It is well after purchasing toys and after their use to inspect them for loose par t icles which children are apt t o place in t he mouth." Advises Careful Selection Dr. Rober t A. Brotemark le, pro fessor of psychology at the University of Penn-sylvania, feels that a careful selection of toys has a lasting effect upon children . "Toys and tools are the means by which the individual masters his en-vironment, " he declared . "Give him the wron g kind and you handicap him in learnin g how to master life. Dr. Bro temarkle explained the various periods in a child 's life and listed a number of toys tha t should be given at each period . For the ver y youn g child , ra tt les, spools, teething rings , soft dolls and books with lar ge illustrations and brillian t ly colored pictures are the most desirable toys. Next comes the age of hobb y-horses , wheelbarrows , boats , trains , toy furniture , dolls and tool sets. Between 7 and 12 years , when t he child is ac tive physicall y, sleds, toys , building material and athle tic equipment are most desirable. "The age of 12 is followed by the expressive period which is typified by the eager pursuit of some hobby , " con-tinued Dr . Bro temarkle , "and in this age the playthings for the boy ought to be real tool sets and chemical sets, in whose possession he will take pride and will act as an incentive toward creating something which interests. The girl of this age begins to seek those thin gs which will be of use to her life, such as small articles of wear and dr ess." Christmas Part y At Y. W. C. A. A Chris tmas party under th e auspices of the Senior Christian Endeavor So-ciety of the First Unit ed Brethren Church , will be held in the Y. W. C. A. social room on Frida y evening, Dec. 24th at 8 o'clock. An interestin g program is being arranged. There will be fun for ever yone.

Last week Mr. Erb . journe yed to Potter County in quest of bear , and before taking leave of Hockersville had promised much bear steak for all of the town 's citizens. The weather in Pot ter County was not favorable for bear hun ting, but nothin g daunted , Mr . Erb set out to bring in Brer Bruin. After spending several days in seeking out his quarry, Mr. Erb finall y detected bear footprints , and he vigilantly fol-lowed the trail. For two days did Mr. Erb continue in this arduous work , over hill and dale , up steep mountains and throu gh dense forests , all the while burdened down with his rifle and bear trap. Feelin g assured that he was nearing t he habita t of the bear , he set his tra p, and expectantly awaited results. Early next morning he returned to the trap and in great glee found that he had been rewarded—for in the trap was a porcu-pine. With a heav y hear t and tired feet he retraced his steps to the camp. Not downcast because he had trailed a por-cupine instead of a bear , but because the citizens of Hockersville would have to eat turke y instead of bear on Christmas Day. Olivets Defeat Burnham 28-25 The Olive ts showed tha t they can play baske tball when they defeated Burn-ham on Saturday, Dec. 11, on the Burn-ham floor . This is the first time Brun-ham has been defea ted on their own floor for the last four yearc and the Hershe y boys are proud of their achieve-ment as they had heretofore been a victim of these coal miners on every occasion that they played in Burnham. It was a fast and ver y rou gh game resemblin g an old-time football game includin g ever ythin g except pullin g hair . Durin g the first half no tea m had a lead over the opposing team by more than two points and the first half ended 15-13 in favor of Hershe y. The first ten minu tes of the second half was wild with Hershe y piling up a lead of ten points , the score being 25-15 with ten minutes to play . At this point of the game the miners must have realized that defeat was star-ing them in the face because they started to play with renewed strength but they had waited too long and the game ended 28-25.

Mr. Enterllne , a senior of the Com-mercial Department of the Elizabeth-town College, 1h subs tituting In her department , during her absence. Alibi Some folks know their garlic better than the onions , While other! are content with smelling cheese, They are strongest for limburger—it 's reci procal— Limbur ger is the strongest , too, for these . Some folks think a whiskey breath is so much better When brea thed about among less lucky friends ; And you often find a man who thinks a smelly pipe A homelike spiri t to a closed car lends . You have met the guy who treats his rheumatizm With liniment that so unearthly smells His poor house-cat , breathing it , lost her nine lives at once, And went to (we suppose) t hat man y hells. Surely the poor chap who always does his work well, Someone should tell him nicely to his • face Tha t , unless he does awa y with his un-wholesome bre ath, He never , never will get any place. Since in life I ' ve never made a lot of head way, My mood to-day both sad and lachry-mose is, But a ra y of sunshine brightens this , my darkest hour , I'll la y my failur es all to halitosis. At You Have Observed W Sheer stockings cc^ver a multitu de of shins. Doc Drake Discovers Life is not all sunshine by any means and a person must take the storm and the calm , the wet and the dry, the rain and the shine , the cold and th e warm , yes, he must take them all as they come. And when a ra y of sunshine , such as slan ted our way the other day, makes its way into our dreary existence we should do our ver y best to give it an hospitable welcome. We hadn 't seen old . Doc Drak e of Libert y Cross Roads for some time. So last Sunda y we paid him a visit. "Well," said Doc, "I see you ar e still smokestackin g over there at Hers hey. To tell you the tru th, I never did have much fai th in your ideas nor could I see much to your jokes until 1 went down to Philadel phia to th e Sesqui-Centen nial. I guess it must have given me a taste for the finer things of life, going down there. But wha t I was going to say I was look-in g at some of the papers Ben Fran klin printed and I saw three or four smoke-stack jokes in them , Ri ght away I began to figure if your jokes were good enou gh for Ben Fran klin to use and to be kept in circulation all the years from seven teen something to now, they must be good." This lit tle bit of praise so cheered us that we have felt bett er ever since. A li ttle heartfelt prais e is a wonde rful thing, folks , and if ever you think any-thing nice like the above about us let us have it right away as accidents are ha ppening everyday and either you or we or all of us ma y be here to-day and gone to-morrow. Nothin g so chagrins a would-b e joker as to pretend you think he is in earnest . Tha t we know from experience . One time we were buying an elbow for a stovepipe. In the store was a neat pile of elbows with the ends fitted to-gether , four elbows forming a sort of square circle. "Gosh , " we said to the clerk , "them is the funniest stove pipes I ever saw. There is no hole in to them and what good can such a stove pipe do that tak es the draft around and around and never lets it out. " The clerk looked a t us in amazem ent , exhaled forcibl y as if to expr ess his con-tempt for any one so brainless . Then he explained. "Wh y you don 't think each one of those circles is just one piece of pipe , do you? Look at it carefully. There , Don't you see there are four pieces with the ends together for conveni ence in shi pping that s ail. ' " Worse Luck I t was in Twin Peaks Tunnel. Some-thin g happened to the lights and they all wen t out for a moment. When they came back a woman complained to the conductor , "Somebody kissed me." "Gwan! " growled a workma n , "you ain 't got no kick. Somebody swiped me veal cu tlet. Now what do yuh think o' that? " ""'Mnnife.tl y Unlikely "Th e new ministe r must he mad ," said the village woman meeting anot her of the parishioners on the street .

Fields ' first starrin g vehicle for Paramoun t , "It' s the Old Arm y Game , " which will be shown at the Hershey Central Theatre on Thurs-da y evening, Dec. 23d , at 7.30 o'clock. From star t to finish, the film is punc-tuated by giggles, guffaws and laughs. All of which merriment might be caused by any number of reasons. First , W. C. Fields , makin g his debut as an hones t-to-goodness movie star in this comed y, is one of the most amusing men the screen has ever known. Second , Eddie Sutherland , the director , is a fellow well versed in dis tr ibuting laughs. Then there is piquant pert little Louise Brooks , fea tured along with Mr . Fields. She contributes a performance second onl y to that given by the star. A fine cast which includes Mickey Bennett , Blanche Rin g, Mary Foy and William Gaxton , is mi ghty capable and could not use ver y much improvement. And las t but , not least , we find that J oseph P. McEvoy wrote the ori ginal play which was adapted to the silver sheet by Tom Gcraghty and J. Clarkson ^Miller . The st ory is sligh t. Merely that of a dru g store chemist who becomes in-volved in a scheme to sell New York lots to Florida real estate men.

S, C. Steelier , December 10. 1926, Cu&h lec, W. A. Simmons Arre sted and Faces Several Charges Demolishes Light Post , Collides With Car , Runs Down Man and Parks Car in Subway. Now in Dauphin County Jail W. A. Simmons, 58, a farmer of near Hummels town, is confined in the Dau-phin County jail pending the outcome of the condi tion of Charles Neiswenger , of Palmyra , who was run down by Sim-mons on Monda y evening abou t 5.30 o'clock . In addition to being charged with drivin g while drunk , Simmons is char ged with failure to stop and render assistance af ter hi tt ing Neiswenger, who is em-ployed by the State Highway Depart-ment and was putting lanterns along the road when the auto hit tim. Simmons is also held in other char ges. Among these are failure to stop and render assistance after colliding with two automobiles , reckless drivin g and havin g demolished a light post. Simmons , who was drivin g a Dodge Sedan , previous to th e accident , drove up Java avenue and ran into one of the large light posts , which stands in fron t of Geor ge Gerth' s residence. The light post was hur led to the ground by the impact of t he Dodge, and in an almost miraculous manner , missed the machine. Geor ge Dressier and George Gerth , who ha ppened along at this time , en-deavored to detain Simmons until the police could be notified , but were unable to do so. Simmons had a negro with him, but who made a quick exit after the accident. Undaun ted, and alone , Simmons proceeded on his way and sped up Choc-olate avenue , and near the Hershe y Trus t Company building, he almost collided ^ with Paul Witmer , -who was drivin gTiis Ford coupe. Even this close shave did not stop Sim-mons' progress , and when he neared the Hershe y fillin g stat ion, he ran into Oliver Keek 's Ford coupe. Mr . Keck had driven out of the filling station and was driving down West Chocola t e avenue , headin g east , when he saw the speeding Dodge Sedan , which was coming directly toward him. Mr. Keck was well on his side of the road , bu t pulled over as much as it was poss-ible for him to do so, bu t was unable to preven t being hit by Simmon 's car. As a result of th e impact his front wheel and fender were smashed , and a sprin g was broken . Even this did not stop Simmons , nor did he stop after he hit Neiswenger , which happened a short distance beyond t he Hershe y fillin g station , but con-tinued to speed toward Swatara as tho not hin g had occurred . Keck , af ter bein g hit , got out of his car in all haste , and ran up Chocola te avenue . Espying a Ford truck that was standin g near the filling stat ion he jumped into it and sped after Simmons. Simmons , when he reached the Swa-tara subwa y, turned off his lights and parked his car in the subway. Simmons was abou t to leave t he car when Keck came up to him, who prevented him from doin g so. While t hus engaged another au tomobile from the west entered the subway. The driver of this car saw the parked car in the diml y lighted subway just in time to avoid a collision. At this time Officer Lafferty and Sergean t McLauren of t he Hi ghwa y Pa trol arrived at the subway, ana Sim-mons was arrested. U. B.
