Ex-CAB Official Is Accused
OF Sc, 600 1Nestegg Fleeing

s. Three years is a long, long
stretch for John P. Breen's pa
sience. credulity and money.
s. 1t also is b long time to wait
TOR an investment" to SNOWFALL
into a matrimonial nestegg, Mr..
Breen. an Air Force civilian
transportation consultant of
Dover, DEL, admitted yesterday.
His charge brought Edward A.
J.. Fay, SIS, who said he was a
former division chief in the Civil
Aeronautics Board, into Munich
pal Court yesterday. Fay, who
said he was with the division of
the CABS tariffs and services
division in 1948, is charged with
obtaining money under false pre-
lenses. He was held for action
of the grand jury, accused of
fleeing Mr.. Breen of $785.
Says He Turned Over $4,000.
But, according to Police 1t.
David A. Higgins. Mr.. Breen says
he turned over more than Sc, 600
to Fay in three years as an in
vestment in rails. The specific
charge covering $785 was based
only on the initial payment, Mr..
Breen said, which he made to
Fay in October of 1851.
The two men were working to-
gether for private firm of
transportation consultants in
New York in 1947.
Mr.. Breen came to Washing
ton in 1850 to work for the Gov
eminent as a transportation
consultant. Fay appeared in
1850, found Mr.. Breen and asked
for the loan of $1,750 which,
Fay told, him he needed ",'to
buy a job with the Republican
party"
The loan was made and in
October Of 1851, Fay reappeared,
explained he was a member of
a syndicate which was negoti-
ating purchase of a spur line of
the Norfolk & Southern railroad.
The idea was to sell the rails for
scrap and any money which Mr..
Breen could put up would be
doubled" 1t. Higgins was told.
The first amount was the
$785. From that time on, the
amount grew to the $4,000 mark
and late in 1852, Mr.. Breen told
Fay he'd like to see some re-
turns.
His Patience Breaks.
With this. according to Mr..
Breen's account to 1t. Higgins.
Fay said the money had doubled
to $12,000-but that he had
reinvested it in the New York,
New Haven and Hartford rail-
road.
For weeks, Mr., Breen said, he
watched stock reports and finally

the long-delayed marriage to q
woman in New York.
Unable to find Fay. the Breen
patience and credulity finally
broke.
Eventually he was able to con-
tact Fay by telephone. When
they met for lunch at a down
town hotel, Mr.. Breen had guests

Sergt. George O. Burnley.

accepting the $6,000-plus ex-

Then I thought of killing Fay,

do that.

TULSA, Okla., R-lt was Just a lot of bull to the milking short horn.
 FFA member Rexford Stout of Orland was being interviewed about his champion bull in a live telecast over KOTV at the fair here.
 Evidently the camera had moved too close, the lights were too bright and announcer Jack Alexander looked too unfriendly.
 The bull made a lunge and Alexander dropped the micro phone and ran. Fair public rela- tions man Arnold Young picked up the mike to give a play-by- play description, but the bull turned and grounded him in the end zone, ripping his trousers.
 The telecast went unannounced until Stout and his companions brought the star animal under control.

too. said Mr.. Cleaves. Wave a
handkerchief at them and few
can resist the impulse to come
closer to see what it's all about.
Raccoons are suckers for butter
mixed with brown sugar and
eagerly scoop it out of jar with
their paws. Skunks, according to
the portrayer of their night life,
are about the easiest of all the
creatures to snap, especially
when offered salmon and prunes.
It seems that skunks are very
confident, knowing that they
carry a sort Of coat of armor.
I remember that a naturalist told
me once that the reason we see
so many skunks dead on a trav-
eled highway is that the little
animals believe all they have to
do to fend off an enemy is to use
their natural offensive weapon.
Thus whenever a model of this
species started beating the ground
with his fore feet, indicating he
was annoyed, Cleaves recognized
a danger signal and took of.

ladle a teaspoonful of fox per-
fume into it and set up his
photography equipment nearby.
He also used grapes for fox
bait, proving that old Eesop
knew his foxes.
For other animals, Mr.. Cleaves
had different enticements. Once,

pound bear in the Adirondacks.
he plastered Is pounds of honey
