Irate Parents Gouge Trench In Street
To Slow Down Speeding Motorists
LIBERTY, Mo., UP> — The city
council decided last night the resi
dents along Hillside Street had
the right idea but used the wrong
technique when they gouged a
trench three inches deep across
their street.
Eight couples joined in the j
project Sunday and posted signs:
“Slow—mad parents.”
“We had to erect the signs and
dig up the street to demonstrate
that something had to be done
right now to protect the 30 kids

Boeing To Use Big
Vacuum Sweepers
To Clean Jet Fields |
WASHINGTON, (tf>—1Two com
panies announced plans today to
build a giant vacuum sweeper to
keep airfields clean for jet air
planes.
The announcement, by Coleman
Engineering Co., of Los Angeles
and Fruehauf Trailer Co. of De
troit, said Boeing Airplane Co. of
Seattle, has purchased the first
commercial production model.
The device will be used by Boe
ing’s transport division plant at
Renton, Wash., where the 707 jet
airliner and the Air Force KC-135 I
jet tanker are being built.
The Air Force has estimated
that the suction of stones, bits
of metal and other objects into
jet engines causes 25 million dol
lars worth of damage a year and
creates a hazard for pilots.
Mounted on a standard truck
body and powered by a regular
truck engine, the device was de
signed to clean as1 much as one
million square feet of airfield an
hour operating at a speed of 25
miles an hour.
along the street.”
Mrs. Harry Hussell Jr., told the
council:
“Drivers go through here from
50 to 65 miles an hour—so fast
we can’t get their license num
bers.”
Mrs. Marvin E. Sands, who
lives two blocks from the trench,
complained to the council she cut
a tire crossing it.
“When people take the law into
their own hands and dig up a
street because some of them can’t
control their own children, it’s
not a good thing,” she said.
“Some of the very people who
complain about speeders in their
block roar through our block.”
The council ordered City Engi
neer Richard Reavis to fill in the
trench but it also instructed him
to erect a four-way stop sign at
a nearby intersection as a means
of slowing down traffic.
The council also approved the
engineer’s idea of building two
humps into Hillside Street about
200 feet apart.
“These rises will not be a haz
ard to drivers going slowly along
there but would give a speeder a
good bounce,” Reavis explained.

Chaolin Celebrates 68th
Birthday With Cake, Quip
And Music from New Film
VEVEY, Switzerland, —Com
edian Charlie Chaplin celebrated
his 68th birthday at his home
here with a huge cake, a wise
crack and music from his new
film.
The five Chaplin children did
not take part in the celebration.
They are all in the south of
France with Chaplin’s wife, who
is expecting the arrival of her
sixth baby next month.
Chaplin received newsmen and
photographers and cut a birthday
cake with an enormous kitchen
knife.
“When you get to be 68, you
don’t want to cut a birthday
cake, you want to cut your
throat,” he said.
He played a tape recording of
the music composed for his latest
film, “A King in New York.” The
film was given its first private
showing to a group of friends
here two weeks ago.
