He told her that he would

as soon as his "chief" arrived.
After a comfortable nights sleep

giving a forwarding address.

WRIT IS SOUGHT
FOR BUSBY
Times Staff Photo
MRS. DOYLE

Policeman Raymond Sinclair,
of the traffic bureau, will apply
to the Corporation Counsel for q
warrant for speeding and passing
a red light against Representative
Jeff Busby Of Mississippi, to
whom he attempted to give a
ticket last night at Sixteenth
Street and Columbia Road Norh-
west.
Sinclair Followed Car
Sinclair followed the Repre-
sentative's machine and stopped
him to tell him that one front
light and the rear light were
out. Busby is alleged to have
passed the officer at a high rate
of speed and to have passed a
red light. When stopped at Six
teenth and Euclid Streets North
west he told the officer that he
had had policemen fired and that
he intended to do the same to
Sinclair.
The policeman attempted to
give the Representative a ticket,
but Busby refused to accept serv-
ice on it and started his machine,
damaging the motorcycle ridden
by the officer.
Reported at Bureau
The occurrence was reported at
the Traffic Bureau and Sinclair's
superiors announced that they
will support him in his effort to
obtain warrant.
One policeman was recently
dismissed from the force for al
legged profanity when he is said
to have stopped Busby for a traf-
fic violation.

What's New In the
Spring SilhOutte
DERHAPS you have seen a few
1 of the first spring dresses
and realized that there is q
strong resemblance between Spring
1881 fashions and those of pre-
ceding seasons. For instance
skirt lengths. Last year, the day
time length was four inches below
the knee. This season, there is
no one skirt length-it varies
according to your figure require
ments. To be smart, wear the
length that is most becoming.
Of course, skirts must not be so
short that they look out of date,
or so long that they look out of
place. But within these extremes,
there's a becoming length for
every figure and every occasion.
Generally, daytime frocks come
just below the curve of the calf,
bit shorter for sportswear, an
inch or so longer for afternoon
and for evening, to the ankle or
longer.
