The width seemed ample then, and the curves served only to break the monotony of the drive. And so It was with the gentle grades. They helped to slow one's speed just enough to keep the scenery from slipping by too fast. e 6UT now! The curves compel us to drop down from cruising speed, and the grades well, the less said about the grades, five per cent maximum though they may be, the better in these hectic days. ; Tho grades slow up the trucks, and when the trucks slow up the iat Is In the fire. .

That was mir acle enough, for the moment. By the time It ende'd, we were thinking In terms of paved high ways wide enough to pass on If we happened to meet another car. (This was an example of growing extravagance; for it was rather widely hc)d at the time that a one-lane pavement Uas good enough for anybody that if It should come to pass that one met a car It wouldn't hurt anybody to get off the hard sur face long enough Id get by.) a e a THUS do we raise the sights ol I ambition as achievements be- j(liv to pile up.

STANTON Capture near North Bend of three men suspected of a jerles of safe robberies, including the Hennltifer store at Glendale, and arrest at Reednport of two men, one of whom is suspected of a holdup in a Sutherlln 'grocery store, has highlighted local news during the past few days. State police and local officers are to be- commended for their vigilance and successful efforts in arresting the several suspects. Much danger was involved, as the men were heavily armed and apparently in a desperate frame of mind. But arresting officers did their work well, in spite of a ges ture of resistance which might have resulted fatally, except for alertness by the police. The captures, however, explain one reason why Douglas County towns have been far below the average in holdups, robberies and safe crackings. Road and- highway bottle necks make escape very difficult and few bandits will run the heavy risk involved in committing a crime and making a getaway. But the criminal hunts being waged In metropolitan areas, where safe breaking; holdups and assault have been ram pant, are driving more and more Of the hunted men into the "sticks." News items report an Increasing number of robberies of all sorts in smaller towns. Douglas County, however, has for many years had a reputation as a tough snot for criminals. A few bank rob beries have been attempted, but none has been successful. A man who attempted a robbery at Glendale a number of years ago was relentlessly tracked through the wilds of the Rogue-Umpqua divide and captured on the lower Rogue river. A feeble-minded youth who attempted a holdup in ah Oakland bank was driven into cover on Rice hill by a civilian posse, was hunted out of a dense thicket, and achiev ed temporary fame by being arraigned, sentenced and de livered to the penitentiary within six hours from the time of his crime. The percentage of holdup men, bank robbers and safe crackers escaping from crimes in Douglas County has been extremely low. The rate of capture has been corresponding ly high. Ore of the principal factors in favor of arrest is the county's road system. Road blocks at a few strategic points close all principal avenues of escape. These few getaway avenues, however, would be useless unless combined with extreme vigilance and expert police, county and city police system proving very successful in man hunts. Road blocks can be set up within a few moments through use of radio. If the crime goes undiscovered to a neighboring county, the guarded, areas, as was tho case of the three men jcaptured in e"Vwa Pnltnli, ' But in many instances, particularly where reports of crimes are received promptly, perpetrators of crime find it impossible to get outside county especially true in cases of auto theft. Police in Douglas County have an extremely good record for recovery of stolen cars and arrest of car thieves. In fact, the county's reputation for allergy to auto thieves is So well known that ''professionals" usually abandon a stolen car before enter ing tho county, hitch-hike through, and pick up another machine on the other side. This is one situation In which a 'bad' reputation is to our advantage. Ing Republican member of the Public works Committee which handles all nroblems of public works.

Indian Coach Jack Newby ran his once beaten cagers through a stiff mid-week workout yester day in preparation for the first game against the highly regard ed Axemen of Eugene High Fri day night. In yesterday afternoon's scrim mage, the Indians worked against both zone and man-to-man de fenses. The Axemen's defense has proven itself practically Impreg nable in previous conference play and Newby Is attempting to groom his squad for any type of defense the Eugene mentor chooses to play.
