Petty Thieving
Ring Is Uncovered
Dozen Youths, 8 To IS, In
voIvcd In Numerous
Recent Thefts

City and county authorities have
uncovered a petty thieving ring
that has been operating in various
stores Of Oakland for the past year
or more. Sheriff James E. Frantz
and Henry Arnold, police chief
for the town of Oakland, have
rounded up a dozen or more juvc-
niles from a section near town
that have been working together
in stealing mostly minor items.
But the thefts we're beginning
to spread out and finally included
about ten bicycles but these have
since been recovered and returned
to their owners.
The investigation has been under
way for several months and the
youth, ranging in age from eight
to fifteen, have been questioned
at various times by officers. The
information is now in the hands of
OtdtC ANloIllcg w. DWlSlll ,OlONGIs
and the youths will probably be
taken to the juvenile court for
further investigation.
Sheriff Frantz said the youths
had admitted their guilt.
The youths would alternately
take their turn as standing watch
and giving the signal when they
were sure no store employee was
watching. Then small items would
disappear The youths we're oper-
ating in Englandcr Pharmacy, the
Oakland Pharmacy, the j. w.
Jackson 5 and 10, the HIP store,
Brownings, Shartzer and Naylor,
and Smousc's.
There was no estimate of the
loss over the past twelve months.

Cats and Rats Prefer Alcohol to Water

SEATTLE R = Rats and cats can be exposed to the evils oi drink, but they'll handle their liquor more wisely than humans, conference on alcoholism was told yesterday.
 An experiment designed to test theory that alcoholism results from illustrations and internal in- hibitions was reported by Ralph Connor, Eastern Washington Col lege at Cheney, Wn.
 Rats and cats were faced with illustrations, then given their choice of water or an alcoholic solution.
 "The cats and rats developed a definite preference for alcohol over water" Connor said. "But they did not drink themselves into alcoholic insensibility. They took just enough to reduce their ten- sions."
 The conference is sponsored by the State Health Department and the University of Washington.
 Dr. Leon A. Greenberg, Director of the Yale University Laboratory of Applied Biodynamics. said the time-honored methods of sober ing up drinker consumption of hot coffee, cold shower or face skipping --- have no effect on a persons istoxication. He said alcohol disappears from the blood at the rate of about an ounce an hour and popular methods do not speed it up.
