The policeman said the money was paid him by Sgt. Robert W. Sprague and that he understood it came from three gambling and vice houses in the Williams ave nue district. Sprague is on trial on a charge of false swearing in denying to a Multnomah county grand jury that he made payments to Olsen. Olsen testified the defendant gave him sums totaling $160 some of which he said was split with another officer. He display ed marked bills and coins which he said were marked at the time of the payoffs and were kept as evidence. The defense, in cross-examination, sought to break down Ol sen's claim that he "wanted to put an end to vice." Olsen testi fied that contacts he had with women of questionable char acter were in line of duty. Cross examination continued today. Cat Goes Along On Family Outing Portland IW Mr. and Mrs. Robert Burgess and their four children couldn't find their cat Tuesday mornmg when they started out on an all-day outing to the Breitenbush area. They figured the eight-month-old Siamese had wandered off to a neighbors. They went to Breitenbush for a picnic, fishing and a day of leisure. Then they drove home. Upon arrival, a neighbor child called to Mrs. Burgess "there's your kitty;" The cat. Panda, was 'creep ing and limping" along, Mrs. Burgess said. She was covered with tar. Later, Burgess took a flash light and looked under the auto mobile. They found cat hair stuck to tar-and-pebbles in a space under the right fender. The young cat had ridden the entire trip under the car. Mrs. Burgess said she didn't know why the cat didn't climb out at Breitenbush but that maybe it was too scared.

Many bus accideents continue to be reported. That's not sur prising. Have you ever taken notice of the driver of a one man bus at work. He collects fares, makes change, issues transfers, answers all kinds of questions and is constantly opening and shutting doors. No wonder he grows weary and 'in bad shape to navigate through city traffic. The one man bus is a dangerous traffic menace. Bring back the conductors!
