Lost on I our

By ths Assoeiased Press

NEW YORK, Nov. as. Sixty
eight streetcar experts wound up
In the subway last night because
they were confused by the complex

The group, on the last leg of a
5l-nile trolley tour of the city In
two special cars, went astray while
trying to find the approach to the

among them newly wed couple

advice and encouragement to the
motormen, but all their maneuver-

them deeper into Brooklyn.
The venture, arranged by the

to prove that trolleys could pro-

the riders were dropped at the first
