FOR HUNTLEY

Dear Chet:

Dear Chet:
Here's a goodie Dave may
forget to pass on to you
from Washington tonight:
Seems that Dave was
driving one of his pair of
white sporty-type cars in
Northwest w a S h j n g ton
about 10 days ago when he
had an accident. Ran into
the rear end of another
car.
Dave appeared for a
hearing at Municipal
Court today to discuss the
consequences. No charges.
Fine so far.
But there was one hitch.
Mr.. Brinkley had to sign
up for two three-hour ses-
sionS in Traffic School this
June.
