HAD HIS FILL IF EXPERIENCES WHEN
 HE VISITED COAST

TEMPE. August That he has had his full share of unusual experlenceS and is ready to settle down to a peace ful life in Tempe again is the opinion of Charles O. Austin. Tempe real estate | dealer, who returned late Friday night from the California coast. where ne went some two weeks ago to reclaim his Baby Grand Chevrolet car, stolen from this place some time previous. After the strenuous detective work and worry of locating the Chevrolet, Inu- ing it in Los Angeles week after IL disappeared MT. Austin arrived m that city with the gasoline famine at It's height. So for another week the car was of no service to him.
 In speaking of the gasoline famine Mir Austin said that since the first part of the week there apparently has been ample gas available in most or the coast towns. After replenishIng his supply in Long Beach on Wednesday afternoon preparatory to making tfe trip home he had to try a half dozen different places in San Bernardino be- l fore finding a supply there. For the most part, how ever, he says that gaso- l line is available at practically any sta ton in any quantity. The price on It has advanced from 23 cents to as nigh as 30 cents per gallon
 l Luck played a goodly part in the 1 finding of his car in Los Angeles, MT. Austin said. Driven from here to the coast by four inmates from the state reform school who had made their escape the machine was accidentally picked up one night at AIhambra, Calf. l when the two boys of the party were arrested on burgalry charge. They l first contended that the car they were fessed that it had been stolen, and the police, already on the lookout for the Austin car, quickly identified it.
 The road back from the coast Is a long, hot, dusty, and for the most parS rough going, according to Austin. He came by way of Parker. taking the Parker cutoff to that point which he contends is a 98-mile stretch of mighty poor road and poor choice for any motorist. The route by way of Needles, though some 30 miles 1ongen he says, Lis in good shape but for 50 miles, and 1 parties who have made the trip over both roads readily recommend the | Needles route.
