If You Need A Car-Keep Looking, Some Student May Abandon His
If you get tired of driving just park your car off the highway, get out, walk away, and leave it.
"Another car had a blowout and the owner let it set by the highway for four days before this office sent a wrecker for it."
This has been done by University students three times in two weeks, Travis Glass, deputy sheriff of Douglas county, said today. It seems that students had encountered either some difficulty or the desire for exercise and abandoned their cars on the ___
shoulder of the highway. If the cars were still there after a day or two, during which time the owner should have had them towed in, the sherriff's office sends out a wrecker and brings them in, Mr. Glass said.
In such cases the owner can get his car by calling at the garage to which it was towed and paying the towing charge, and garage rental, if any.
"One car was stuck for two days," he said. "We thought the driver would get it out, but didn't. We finally had it towed in.
In only one case did the sheriff's office make a charge and levy a fine against a student who abandoned his car, Mr. Glass said.
"The automobile was a Model A and had been abandoned for a week. We towed it in and found that it was not properly registered or licensed, so the student was fined.
"We do our best to contact owners of the cars." Mr. Glass continued.
"On this Model A case we couldn't find the boy's address in the student directory, and the registrar's office didn't have it either. He gave us a time, but we finally located him."
The ostest case, in the $2^{1/2}$ years that Mr. Glass has been on the force, happened when one student, deciding to get to a nearby river to go fishing, left the highway and drove through a wheat field. He got stuck in the far side of the field and the wheat side of the field; then the wheat he knocked down, before he allowed the student to have his car towed out.
"That short cut cost him plenty," said Mr. Glass. "I don't think he'll forget that one for a long, long time."
Delta Sigma Pi Initiates In Kansas City
Thirty men including the 15 initiates of Delta Sigma Pi, professional business fraternity, held their annual initiation banquet in Kansas City, Mo., recently.
Dale McNeil, representative of the Commerce Trust company of Kansas City, Mo., was the guest speaker. He spoke on the role of taxation.
Mr. McNeil said that the people of the United States are paying increasing amounts to the government. He gave figures on national expenses in 1948 saying that between one sixth and one seventh of the money went to foster socialistic projects.
The government is taking over more and more of the activity in the country, he continued.
"We are heading toward socialism," he declared.
Earlier in the afternoon the organization visited the Muehlebach Brewing company in Kansas City, Mo.
