GLEANED FROM FILE THIRTEEN Compiled by Jim Duncan From the Wires of United Press Summer is officially over now that Labor Day is past and we are entering the season known as Fall. Many tourists campe back East are putting up storm shutters and storing everything away until next year. Labor Day, besides marking the end of the summer season, is a good weekend for a short trip and final family outing. It is also the time for most automobile accidents. Many cities kept their police force working during the weekend and conducted campaigns before the long weekend to make drivers more aware of the hazard of heavy holiday traffic. In Minneapolis, Minn., that city's Jaycees thought they would point out Labor Day traffic hazards. They towed two wrecked cars to busy Highway 12 at Minneapolis' outskirts. They parked an ambulance nearby and scattered dumps around to represent victims. While they were putting up a sign which said, "Don't let this happen to you," a passing motorist noticed the wrecked cars and jammed on his brakes for a quick look. Four cars following him crashed into his car and each other. Burglaries found the Labor Day week-end an ideal time to operate. Some of them, however, were not as wise as they thought they were. In Chicago, Karl Fosslund, 25, admitted before a judge that he made a mistake when he tried to steal a parked car. The owner and two other persons were sitting in it at the time. George Varelas credited two chicken salad sandwiches with saving his life. Varelas, the owner of the Adventure Restaurant in Saugus, Mass., grabbed a chair to defend himself when two gunmen entered. They considered shooting him until one. St. Petersburg, Fla., police wondered today what "it" was that "the hawk" took from a tire company there. A prowler broke through the skylight, rummaged through drawers and cabinets, used an electric drill to break open a safe, scattered $485 over the floor and left the following note: "It took me five hours but I got it. Thank you. The Hawk." Manager James R. Rogers said nothing appeared to be missing. In Long Beach police arrested a burglary suspect after seeking him for four months. Robert Elmer Nicholson, 22, picked up in a cafe, told police he had been living across the street from the police station. San Francisco has a problem. Police L.A. Al Nicolini, an expert on marijuana, complained today that something had been gnawing away at his prize exhibit, a 30-inch tall marijuana plant used to illustrate lectures. Nicolini said nearly all of the plant's leaves had been eaten away, and he suspected a "hopped up" rat or mouse probably was running around town. Helen Walker, 28, pleaded guilty to a charge of fortune telling in Los Angeles this week, but insisted she was born with "the gift of seeing the future in people's eyes." Municipal Judge Roger Pfaff invited her to gaze into his eyes and "tell me what your sentence is going to be." The madame said she was stumped. "Fifty dollars or 10 days in jail—suspended," the judge said. Two 13-year-old boys broke into J. P. Podlucky's egg warehouse in New York and smashed 14,000 eggs because they wanted to "get even" with Podlucky, who had caught George Varelas credited two chicken salad sandwiches with saving his life. Varelas, the owner of the Adventure Restaurant in Saugus, Mass., grabbed a chair to defend himself when two gunmen entered. They considered shooting him until one of the bandits interrupted. "Walt," he said. "There's the dough in that paper bag on the counter." The men took the sack and fled. It contained two sandwiches Varelas was taking home to his wife. Nothing is safe these days. In Mantanaas, Cuba, the Yumuri agricultural company reported the other day that a locomotive, 16 freight cars and four automobiles were stolen from a warehouse during the night. When Robert Guiney Jr., of San Rafael, Calif., decided he wanted to go for a drive the other night he sneaked into the United Ambulance Company and took off in a shiny new ambulance with red lights flashing, sirens wailing and horns honking. Guiney was arrested within a few minutes. The madame said she was stumped. "Fifty dollars or 10 days in fall—suspended," the judge said. Two 13-year-old boys broke into J. P. Podlucky's egg warehouse in New York and smashed 14,000 eggs because they wanted to "get even" with Podlucky, who had caught them breaking into his warehouse previously. Over in Hanau, Germany, Paul Sonnenfield, a hotel owner, has been sentenced to three months in jail for turning 30 bedbugs loose in the hotel of a competitor. The mayor of a small Westphallian village in Germany paid a gasoline bill the other day because he had too big a celebration on election eve. He was scheduled to open the voting station at 8 a.m., but overslept. Angry voters sent a car for him and charged him for the gasoline. Attention all girls!
