They will tell yon yes" Latin is the

Tile point is this: While only a few

The aristocratic, piutooratic idea is that

FLAT TIRES AID the Law
Motorist Wanted on Racine Charge Fails
to Gross Illinois Line When Tires Blow
out-Frazier 'son the spot'' for
Collision Artist.

Minutes meant dollars to Frank Ro-
buck, fleeing speedster on the Lake
Shore Road, Monday afternoon, and he
lost when three tires went flat and
Deputy Sheriff W. j. Frazier was on
the job to bring him to delayed justice.
Robuck was in collision at Racine
Sunday afternoon in which he was en-.
tirely to blame and was due to pay the
damages to the owner of the other car,
driven by Miss Dorothy Grisley of that
city. He decided upon the splendid plan
of getting across the state line and thus
evading payment but the Racine sheriff
coupled with the efficiency Of the Ke-
nosha county deputy were too much for
him and as a result he is waiting trial
in the Racine county court.
The chase started at 1925 Monday
afternoon when Deputy Sheriff Frazier,
who was left in charge of the sheriff s
office in Kenosha, because of the fact
that other officers were busy lining up
the milkmen, was notified that two
seated Overland was making the trip to
Kenosha and that it should be detained
because it had no license number. Fra
zier took no time in getting to the road
this side of Central Park where he wait
ed for his victim, who in less than five
minutes came limping along with his
front axle bent and three tires flat to
the rim. They pulled the car to the
side of the road and brought Robuck
to Kenosha where charges of driving
without license were filed against him.
The struggle for possession of the car
started when Robuck through his attor-
neys attempted to hold the car in Keno
sha but the Racine sheriff was little
too fast for them and when they came
to serve the attachment the car was
already across the county line and out
side the jurisdiction of Kenosha county
Officers. The charge against Robuck in
Kenosha was dismissed this morning
when the "hard luck story was put
up by his lawyers but he was taken to
Racine where the detached car will
force him to make reparation for the
damages caused by his reckless driving.
The Racine county sheriff smiled as
he commended Sheriff Hermann on the
efficient cooperation which had been
given him by Deputy Frazier. fJust
tell Sheriff Hermann, - he said to Fra
zier and the attorneys, "that I've
known Deputy Frazier for several
years and this is only one time when he
has been ready in the nick of time to
nab the law breaker. If there ever
comes time when you don It want him
down at Kenosha just send him up to
Racine for he's - good deputy"
Meanwhile Robuck is cursing the fate
that three bad tires and speedy deputy
have forced upon him and is making
arrangements to cross the state line in
legal style after the trouble is settled.
