Even Sheriffs Sometimes Get A Bit Stir Crazy
Appleton, Wis.—(UP)—The Outagamic county jail was a dull place today. That family had paid its fine, pulled the children's diapers from their improvised wash line, and chugged away toward their home.

"I'm rid of them" he said. "I'm rid of them!"
The parents of the family pleaded guilty a week ago to passing forged checks in several Wisconsin towns, including Appleton.
They were fined $1,000 but couldn't pay it because authorities had impounded the $1,000 they had in cash. When officials ordered them to jail, they brought their two children with them.

From then on, life in the jail was considerably liveller. The family strung, a special washline for one-year-old Donald's diapers. Patricia, 5, played cops and robbers along the jail corridor.
the wife and the kids lived in the juvenile section. The father was lodged in the men's cells.
Then they hauled down their wash line, gathered up all their other household paraphernalia, and loaded their family car. It was dark by then.
"Get it started at all costs," one of them yelled.
The deputies got behind the car,
gave it a shove, and the motor sputtered
for a minute. Then it started.
The family drove off, waving happily.
The deputies looked even happier as they watched the car pull out of sight.
Field Is Open Bailey Says
"Industry offers many opportunities for engineers today." Dr. Ervin G. Bailey, national president of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, said at a student branch meeting of A.S.M.E.. Tuesday in Lindley auditorium.
Dr. Bailey added that "the surface has just been scratched in any fields of engineering."
He also said that industry has many obligations. The most important of these are its customers, he explained, and next in line are the employees for whom industry must furnish good leaders. Industry is obligated to the stockholders that furnish it with capital.
"Industry must keep health, be up to date, honest, and strive to help others." Dr. Bailey added.
Prof. Linn Helander, vice-president of A.S.M.E. for this region and head of mechanical engineering at Kansas State college, outlined A.S. M.E. activities.

Children Die In KC Fire
Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 20—(UP) Three children died in a fire which destroyed their home Tuesday night, in the intercity district, just east of the city limits here.
The victims were Frances Smith,
7, Karen Smith, 6, and Larry Smith.
4. Their one-year old brother, Ralph,
was saved by the parents.
Three families living on the first floor managed to escape without injury. The house was destroyed.
The parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Smith, awakened shortly before midnight to find their second-floor room smoke-filled. Mrs. Smith grabbed the youngster and dropped him to the ground from their room.
The parents then started toward the hallway where the other children were sleeping but were forced back by the smoke and heat. They then jumped to safety. Neither the youngster nor Mr. and Mrs. Smith were injured by the eight-foot drop to the ground.
