DRIVERS FINED
FOR IGNORI NG
POLICE SIREN

Two persons were fined by Judge
I. May1ield this week for not obey
ing the police sirens when sounded
upon the highway, and each was lee
tured on the necessity of the public
at once giving way to the siren call,
as only police departments and fire
brigades are allowed to use sirens
during the performance of their
duties.
The ignoring of the red light and
the siren was marked in the case Of
the police hurrying into FL Centre
with the unconscious form of Traf-
fic Officer +. V. Ackley, and dcs-
pite the attempt to get to the doe
tor as quickly as possible, the police
ear was held up by several persis-
tent people who speeded up their
ears when the police department en-
dcavored to get by. There arc a
certain number of morons to whom
the automobile club have issued Ii
eenses to drive who should be de-
prived of this privilege when they
do not obey the traffic officers
signals through the siren, declares
Captain Art Leonard, and Il cleanup
of such people will be made on the
highways surrounding El Centre, he
declares. "
Another matter which the polics
ave decided to deal with is the
laxity in giving hand signals by
hose who make stops or turns. A
watch is going to be set at Il busy
corner, and anyone neglecting to
give the proper signal will get II slip
entitling him to see Judge Mayfield
the next day, say the officers.
