ONE HEADLIGHT AUTOS GOING TO BE ROUNDED UP
There are too many autos in the traffic now with only one headlight lighted and Chief of Police John Monagle has instructed his force to make arrests of autoists found driving in this manner.
"It's getting dark early," said the Chief, "and traffic is endangered by autos traversing the streets with only one headlight burning. There is not only danger to vehicle traffic but to pedestrians as well and as the ordinance requires both headlights burning, autoists are warned to make an inspection of their lighting system as arrests will follow for violators."
