At last the secret ut County Fros
ecitor Huberts is out nnd no longer
will the prosecutor's motorcycle cop
have to speed back and forth on the
Paeifie highway and elsewhere with
his fame unheralded. His duty is to
search for motorists ut night time
who ftiil to observe the state law re
quiring that the front lights of an
auto must be dimmed when approach
ing another auto, vehicle or person.
When Prosecutor Huberts gave
warning early last week thru the
newspn)ers that he would mnko a
special crusade in the interest of
public safety to enforce this law,
the new motorcycle cop at once went
on the job. As a result a number
of Mcdford citizens, as well as others,
were caught red handed with their
lights brightly burning.
A half dozen or more offenders
were caught by him Saturday and
Sunday nights who will have to up
per for trial before Justice of the
Peace Taylor late this afternoon or
tomorrow.

Among those arrested Saturday or
