because school is in session. In
both cases. the construction work

Gregory told the police that the

old. had a smooth taco and wore a.
cap and a. dark brown overcoat.

The Ford, itself, is not worth
much. It has three good shots on
the wheels: the fourth is worn out;
it is lacking or the windshield. Even
the foot boards in the front of the
car are missing. They wonder. too.
it they can be compelled to take
the car and pay the storage if it
remains in the garage for a couple
of months.

The police are rather at sea. as to
what to do with the machine. If it
is left at the garage a couple of days
or so. the storage charges will more
than eat up the money it would

In the meantime. Gregory and his

where they come ‘in on the deal.
The car was given to‘them. but they
would have a. hard time securing

could satisfy the'Statc Motor Vehicle
