Wave Ends Up In Brig
For Wearing Wrong Pants
CHICAGO, UPl — Bell bottom
trousers, a coat of navy blue and
a red-haired Wave cost Roy Lee
Bundy, 25, of Huntington, W. Va.,
a day in jail.
Bundy arrived in Chicago Wed
nesday. One of the first persons
he met was a pretty red-haired
Wave. He made a date to take
her to Chicago’s USO Center.
But being a civilian, he had to
have a uniform to enter the ser
vicemen’s center. So Bundy
bought a surplus Navy uniform
with bell bottom trousers.
As he was beguiling the Wave
with his exploits at the USO, two
shore patrolmen marched straight
to him and asked forr his pass.
He had none so they tossed him
into the brig and charged him
with unlawfully wearing a mili
tary uniform.
Before Judge Walter J. LaBuy,
Bundy said:
“This Wave was so beautiful—
she was a redhead — that I just
couldn’t let the fact that I was
only a civilian cheat me out of a
date. After all, I was just in
Chicago enroute to Alaska where
I intend to join the shrimp fleet.”
Judge LaBuy was sympathetic.
“I’ll sentence you to one day,
and consider it served,” he said.
“Go on to the shrimp fleet, where
bell bottom trousers without the
rest of the uniform are OK.’*
The shore patrolmen saw thru
Bundy’s disguise because bell bot
tom trousers have been out
moded uniform styles for a num
ber of years.
