TWO IN ONE DAY
Police officers are getting busy in enforcement of the rules of the road 
ordinance and following a week's instruction to drivers by police officers 
stationed at busy corners, arrests are being made. Two offendors were in 
municipal court yesterday and each paid $5.01 as a penalty. L.E. Wedertz, 
who has just returned from a trip to Chicago and says he drove 200 miles 
in that city without seeing a cop, was charged with driving on the wrong 
side of the highway on Tenth street and settled. Dr. Louis Falge paid up 
when told that he had violated the law in turning a corner short.
Alex Reinhold who was charged with disturbing the peace Sunday night was 
fined $5 and costs.

Somebody wants to know do we see what they do - a number of 1926
license plates? Sure, even the police admit they are here and
their eyesight is notoriously bad.

the river at the high bridge and were not properly attired in
