Hiker In the sympathy of motorists, for those who plod afoot along our highways, stifled by the modern wave of blackjacking and hold ups? Darlington Holdman, ex-25, who arrived here from Fort Worth, Texas, Feb. 23, believes the answer to the question should be "no."

The contemplated amble—it was really only contemplated, for he had plenty of faith in mankind—and was turned into a continuous and comfortable tour on automobile cushions by unbelieved fans at the museum he favored. The length of the "fits" varied from 5 to 250 miles and all travel was done during the day time. "I was careful to start the walk, carrying a handrail so people would know I was a through-traveler," said Jill.
