ROMEOS AT THE WHEEL
 CHASE TROLLEY CARS

Cupid st the wheel has now been added to the hazards Of travel by street or trolley through Greeueville when Norwich automobile Pomeos chase pretty Jewett City or Plainfield girls, honaeward bound by trolley, and try to induce them to desert the troll ley for an automobile ride.
 Trolley crews on the Central Village line have to keep on the lookout for smashups with mac ines that shoot along beside the trolley car with the automobile driver swa pning signs with any pretty girl who gives the man at the wheel encouragement. Sometimes the auto Romeo will follow along until the trolley is brought to a stop to let a passenger on or off, when the girl takes this chance to get off and hop into the seat beside her adorer. If the man at the wheel gets impatient and there seems to be no chance for the girl to get off, the auto driver will oftentines manage to run his machine across the track ahead of the car sd as to oblige it to come to a stop and give the girl the chance to get off she is looking for.
 Most of the Eomeos at the wheel are inclined to be speed demons and .with attention divided between the road and the fair divinity in the trolley car there is an added danger for the pe- , dectrian and the trolley crews.
