Police Discourage
Rumored Ice-Race
Two Lake and two Dallas Town-
ship boys complied with Lake Town-
ship police order not to repeat their
automotive ice-capades after a per-
formance off Point Breeze was stop-
ped Sunday, February 10, and they
were told to remove their cars from
the ice.
Rumors of another large group's
plans to follow suit with organized
ice-races led to publication of a warn-
ing by Police Chief Edgar Hughes
Sunday that extra officers had been
put on watch, and offenders would
be prosecuted. No racers appeared
that day.
Report from some residents that
the boys were playing chicken with
their cars was denied by assistant
chief Walbridge Leinthall, who 27d
that they were, 1u ally case, lu danger
of falling into ice fishing holes and
ice-cuts around docks.
Every once in a while, someone
gets an idea to take his car out on
the ice during the winter, and seeing
what it’s like and police always have
to chase him off, according to Leint-
hall. This is the first time the assist-
ant chief could recall any organized
plans for racing. |
“There are supervised areas for
racing on other lakes”, he observed.

one hour of lecture and two hours
of laboratory work.

Declare Misuse
Of Ambulance
Equipment, Crews,
For Specified Job
Kingston Township Ambulance has
faced the problem lately of misuse
of vehicle and crews by police and
citizens who do not recognize the
function of the association, according
to Martin Porter, president of the
volunter group.
As opposed to the coroner, whose
jurisdiction encompasses all deaths
resulting from accidents, the am-
bulance and crew must remain free
to help any live patients, sick or in-
jured, to keep on living.
And when the ambulance does re-
spond to help the sick, says Porter,
it is the duty of all concerned, in-
cluding officials, to take prescribed
measures to safeguard public equip-
ment. Lately, he observes, this has
not been done.
Following the recent discovery of
the late Margaret Dykman’s body in
a well on her property, a call was
sent out from the police department
for. four men.
Arnold Yeust, Sheldon MacAvoy,
Merten Coolbaugh and Jack Lasher
of the Kingston Township Ambu-
lance . Association responded. Mr.
Yeust drove the ambulance to the
scene hoping the victim was still
alive and could be given aid.
It was ‘too late for help and the
four volunteers were put to the five
hour job of removing the body from
its wedged position. They returned
for tools and went to work. It was
necessary to break the stonework
finally to complete their task.
The Dykman home was filled
with r representatives “of all police
groups, photographers and newsmen,
and no one lifted a finger to assist
the ambulance crew performing un-
der adverse conditions in sub zero
weather.
Several weeks ago, the ambulance
was again requested.by the police
to remove a mental patient to an
institution. - Although the by-laws
state that such patients must be
manacled, proper procedure . was
ignored by the officers.
“Damage to the large glass win-
dows of the ambulance result in
costly expenditure to the association
which operates purely by donations
of its citizens and loss of service
wher repairs must be made”, states
Porter. |
“The resuscitator likewise is easily
damaged not to mention danger “to
