GLEANED FROM FILE THIRTEEN Compiled by Jim Duncan From the Wires of United Press Little gems from the police blotters across the nation make up File Thirteen today. Everyone has heard the old adage: "You can't see the forest for the trees," and police in Sacramento had no reason to doubt John Bensen, 32, when he told them he did not see the other car when he smashed into it with his own auto. Benson, it was discovered, is totally blind in one eye. His "good" eye has 11-200 vision, so poor he receives compensation for the blind from the state. Jules Jackson, a Conrad Hilton Hotel bus boy, was in police custody today because he put on too much weight too fast. A suspicious house detective searched Jackson as he left work. He said he found the bus boy's added bulges were nine tablecloths concealed in his trousers and about 50 pieces of hotel silver. Speaking of shoplifters, over in Pusan, Korea military police, checking on thefts of merchandise from a post exchange, noticed that eight Korean women employees were bulging in the wrong places. In the women's clothing the MP's found 22 tubes of toothpaste, 50 bars of bath soap, three cartons of cigarettes, seven bars of laundry soap, eight boxes of soap powder, six bottles of hand lotion, a box of starch, 22 cartons of razor blades, three cans of tooth powder, two toothbrushes and an alarm clock. Lee Roy Javine, 36, a paroled convict, knocked on the gate of San Quentin Prison the other day and asked for his cell back. "My in-laws are driving me nuts," he said. "I need some peace and quiet." Javine was paroled Feb. 4, 1952 after serving nearly four years on burglary charges.

Tony Harris, 8, his brother, Timmy, 7, and Alan Courtow, 7, led him to a spot near the excavation. Officers summoned by Neville uncovered the rest of the loot.
