Deputy Describes
Stolen Auto Hubcaps

Johnson wrote the following re
port after investigating theft of
10 hubcaps from 1956 model
cars at an auto agency.
"These - hubcaps are really
beautiful. To describe these caps
for 'anyone to identify is nearly
impossible. The best thing is
for the guys (other deputies) to
go down to the garage and ,see
them " . .
Johnson, by the way, is a part
time salesman for another auto
dealer who handles another make
of car. ..' .
