House claimed that, from either a 'patriotic stand or some other unexplained cause" no one from the large crowd that gath cred would either help him or give him their names as witnesses.
 Foot! Foot!
 As Anderson ignored his inquisitor and started indifferently to walk away, House acted in true metropolf- tan style, seized his nearly-new po- lice whistle and made it resound along heavily -traveled Main stregt. It was heard by Policeman Frank R. Hahn, also in civilian clothes and off duty, who. Aupposing there must be near riot with the policeman on the beat experiencing trouble, hurried to the scene. He met Anderson moving rapidly away and despite the latter's protestations that there was no trouble and no cause for his arrest escorted him back to the scene of the gathering crowd. Anderson made no
 
 bal protestation. Hahn found House with clothing disarranged and excited. He then notified Anderson that he was under arrest. Fire Chief Robert M. Dame's car coming along just then, it was used for the short trip to police headquarters with Policeman Hahn and Anderson as passengers It was here that the comedy part of the incident began.
