WILD ESCAPA PADE
 0F QUARTETTE
 ENDS IN JAIL

A girl. drunk or drugged, was found in an automobile at three o'clock yesterday morning at Fourth and Madison streets by Policeman Jerry Sullivan. The stiffened form of the young girl attracted the attention of the officer who believed her dead and as he was about to begin an in vestigation another girl and young man well known to the city and ju- venile courts came from the house before which the car stood.
 They were profuse in their expla- nations. They declared that they she had been i'll. She has friend out here and I came for her address to take her to her home
 Don't worry about her address, l will find one for her and for you both,' said the officer, who with the trio started for the city hall On the way he had the foresight to take the number of the car, 5590 and to pick up its owner who had been d party of the four hour joy ride that will result in the filing of serious charges against the men.
 That the charges are not of a still more serious nature is because of the fact that the city officers were able to revive the girl who for four hours had been in an unconscious state. There were no formal charges placed against them yesterday but County Attorney Clyde M. Candy will file informations this morning charging them with violating the prohibition amendment. It is understood that later another charge might be placed against the men for contributing to the delinquency of the girls who are minors and when either or both these complaints are filed the names of the offenders will be made public
 Both these high school girls are wards of the juvenile court, yet de- spite this fact they seem to have had the freedom of the city and of Tempe where their escapades in the past few weeks have become known to the police. These young school girls are said to have become ac- quainted with notorious women in Phoenix and to have patterned their manner of living from them. AL though both girls have parents they are supposed to be under the pro- lection of the probation officers and it was to probation officer w. J. Os- born that Chief of Police George O.. Brisbois telephoned the story yester- day.
 | MT. Osborn accompanied by the county attorney at once visited the city hall where one of the birls told MT. Candy all that had passed dur ing the long night. She said that a young married man was with the other girl'' while her friend was re- gently fined $20 for assault by the city court, called for her. She said as soon as she joined them she mo- ticed the other girl had been drink ing too much and while they all had a drink or two she seemed supplied. In fact her condition of profound in- toXication frightened them and they decided to drive about in an effort to revive her She had drunk at least a quart of wine and they believed that q long drive would restore her to consciousness.
 They mOtOred to the Arizona canal and started to build big fire when they came to the conclusion that they would be discovered by passing joy riders. They went on and on until they reached the desert where they repeated their efforts in behalf of the girl. When there was no change they brought her back to town with the intention of putting her to bed at one of the rooming houses they were wont to frequent. It was at this point their plans were interrupted by Po- liceman Sullivan.
 The county attorney familiar with the records of the four has recently been advised of a trip made by the men of the party of Wednesday night to the south. It is said that they came back with q large quantity of personal use.' The first informa : tion that will he filed charges them with giving intoxicating liquor.'
