The
Rambler
Loses
A Friend
By GEORGE KENNEDY

When you lose a friend,
one of the thoughts that
follows is always the selfish
one, the regret that we had
not seen him more often
while he was still with us.
The Rambler saw Cy Ellis
infrequently, too infrequent-
ly. Cy, an oysterman who
ran a raw bar on the water
front, died Saturday.
He would stop in an see
Cy when the weather got
cold in the fall-when all
signs indicated that the
oysters would be fat.
1t was always a rewarding
experience, not only because
of the oysters but for the
encounter with Cy's radiant
personality, the flash of his
smile and sparkle of his eye.
And almost every year
since the war, we have gone
duck hunting together.
The city man wonders why
anyone would be so idiotic
as to stand all day in the
freezing cold, with a pene-
trating wind blowing and
sometimes through sleet and
snow, to shoot ducks.
Well, it's not only the
excitement of ducks circling
over your decoyS and the
thrill of a good wing shot.
Out there in a blind, 200
yards offshore with the
waves tapping against the
brushwood concealment,
there is a sense of getting
away from it all.
Evening star., 1959-12-03

lawyer. Earl H. Davis, and
showed him a 90-day warranty
Discount Sales had given him.
With all the evidence in, the
jury decided that Discount Sales
had - as Mr.. Davis claimed -
committed a breach of war
ranty in failing to fix the car
within the 90-day period, and
they awarded Mr.. Shubrook the
81, 500.
Assuming Mr.. Shubrook gets
the money-lawyerS for Dis
count say they're going to ask
for a new trial-he'll be clear
of the $1,009.25 he still owes on
the car, plus something left
over to pay Mr.. Davis.
The trial evidence showed
that. in addition to the SLABS
sales price on the car, Mr..
Shubrook unwittingly signed UP
to pay SITS in insurance pre-
miums over every IL month
period during the two years he
was given to pay for the car.
There were also finance charges
Of $360,70. Mr.. Shubrook was
also charged $59.40 for Mary
land tags, testimony held.
Thus, instead of paying
$1.395 for the car, he ended
up with a total bill-less his
down payment - of $1,630.80.
The evidence showed a sales
man had told him his monthly
payments would be only $34 a
month for "a months. The pay
mentS ended up at an actual
figure of $67.95 per month for
"a months,

Used-Cor Buyer Nicks
Sales Firm for 81, 500

A used car buyer who found
his payments more and his car
less than he thought he had
bargained for had his day in
court yesterday and came away
with 81 500 Judgment against a
Washington dealer.
The judgment was decided on
by a Municipal Court jury in
the case of James E. Shubrooks
of st. Ingoe's Md, against Dis
count Motor Sales, Inc, at
Fourteenth an N streets NV.
Testimony in the case, pre-
sided over by Judge Milton M,
Kronheim, jr., contended Mr.,
Shubrooks bought a 1856 two
door sedan last February %
and was told by a salesman
when he put $400 down to make
the deal the price would be
81, 1896. He failed to read the
sales contract.
Some time and go miles later
he discovered that the price
was actually 81 ,495 and by this
time the car had filled with
smoke. He and his wife for
the rest Of their long trip were
forced to open the car windows
to breathe, it was testified.
By May % Mr.. Shubrook
discovered the car needed
several hundred dollars in re-
pairs, and was told-after
trying unsuccessfully to turn
the car in and get his money
back-on a third trip back to
Discount Motor Sales that they
