The la me of Indian guides whose cunning has often brought the white man safely out of the wilderness 'has become legen- dary. But look what happened in Wyoming. A Shoshone Indian guide was with a party of Bureau of Land Management surveyors return- ing from an inspection of tim- ber. The Shoshone 'became se- parated from the rest of the party and got lost in a dead-end canyon 11,000 feet up, His party of surveyors returned to their headquarters unaided, then sent out a group of horsemen who, with the aid of a helicopter, res- cued the lost Indian. T his was 'hardly in keeping with the legendary belief that an Indian can see things, in the wilderness th a I a white man can't. And what about a helicop- ter, which. is surely a product of the machine age, rescuing a lost brave whose moccasined feet have so' silently and swiftly car- ried him through the forest to safety In the past? Could Jarnes Fenimore Cooper have been Wroenithg? P aps 'the legendary Indian is changing. He may be more resourceful hi the city than in the Wilderness. For instance, there was that old Indian who always seemed to know what kind of weather was coming, Asked why he c 0 uld predict weather so accurately, he re. plied: "1 tune in on the weather bureau broadcasts." - Topeka (Kan.)

After all, Teasoned Price, 'four -year - old Carry. Back, the 1901 Kentucky Derby and Prealtness champion, had never won all grass and had • never won at 11/4 miles, "What have I gat to lose?" said Price, putting up, the $1,000 entry fee for last month's $231,000 Prix de VArc de TrIOMPhe.. in Paris, Next; Price had. to Hire jockey,. Be chose a 40. yea ld Australian named Arthur .(- co- bie) • a former Prix • winner and this year's leading jockey in B•rgland, who; knew all about the rolling,, clockwise course and the starefforn behind a net, Unfortunately, Breasley knew nothing about his wiry brown mount-and he didn't care much, either. Breasley rode Carry Back only once before the big race and on race day washed. clown his two-hour lunch with champagne. While More than 45,000 specta- tors were settling in their seats at the Lor.gchernp track, Breas- ley received his final -=and first -int,tructions. "I .don7 t want you taking foolish risks," said .Price, "I'd like to win, but the horse is more important t can't tell you exactly . how to' 'ride him, - That's what you're there for, If there's any trouble, keep him on the outside." After the start, with Carry Back, a 6-1 second 'choice and a ^ heavy sentimental faVorite.' well up among the leaders. of ,the 247: horse field. Breasley politely took his mount off the pace. Later„ 'around the . final turn,. - • Breasley foolishly swung far too. wide and lest nearly, fifteen lengths, Carry' Back finished a disappointing tenth. behind nine • Frecnh horses, almost six lengths behind Soltikaff, :the winning 40-1 longsho:t, "Carry Back might 'well have: WetiHif'..I hadn't !fol- lowed your instructions so care- fully," Breasley 'obediently told • Price afterward, "I could have o' broken through on the. inside, but I. thought if Pd disobeyed you,. you'd have been annoyed," Price wasn't annoyed; he was speechless. The next. day, he boldly challenged the first five finishers to a special race ($25,- 000. entry fee, winner take all, over the same course). When only the owner of runner-up Monade accepted, the race 'was canceled, and Price still seethed. "We lost through a combination of had racing luck and a stupid ride," • he snapped. "I could throw a 130-pound bag of feed on Carry Back, and he'd do as well as he did under Breasley." A lady teacher, somewhat plump in figure, had been lec- turing her young class on birds and their habits, 'Now, children,' she invited, 'can anyone tell me anything a little bird could do that I couldn't?' A little boy put his hand up. 'Please, Miss,' he said, `take a bath in a saucer.' When All London Was Afraid Net every taxi crusing Lon- don's hundreds of square miles, is as innocent as it appears at first glance, Not all are even taxis, as the Flying Squad discovered. In the autumn of 1951 West End poll6e"statiims were burden- ed with calls reporting a spate of robberies., The thieves broke into 'houses and .flats in the early hours of the morning. They worked expertly 'and left' no fingerprints. Also they 'were agile .;at climbing and swift in forcing entry. "It's damned uncanny," said one Flying Squad officer at a conference, where it,was*presurri- ed. that the robberies Were car- ried out by only two men. Police on the beat were warn- ed to keep a sharp lookout for anything that happened in the districts where the robberies Were .repdrted let the '?times the thieves were operating. That "anything"' Was' very; for- cibly •underlineel by station ser- geants . befere patrols left 'on duty. Still the phoned, • reports and emergency calls came in. One time from a house in a quiet avenue lined with trees, another from a flat on the sec- ond floor of a modern luxury block. The thieves were quite impar- tial in the matter of whose prem- ises they patronized so long as the pickings included valuable gowns, furs or jewellery. Flying Squad cars patrolled Mayfair and the West End. Radio traps were laid. Detectives and uniformed police spent dreary hours watching and waiting. Still the thieves gave no sign of showing up where they might be expected. Weeks went by. The number of breakings and enterings mounted, The circulated list of goods sto- lent grew longer, Each week the report on the d r iv e against the phantom crooks showed a blank. And London's wealthy men were 'frightened that they would be next on the thieves' list. DetectiVe-Sergeant Bird w a s given the case. He went ,through all the re- ports, and like other detectives who had studied them found nothing that offered the sugges- tion of a clue. Suddenly 'he felt a growing excitement. He flicked over the reports-Again, this time looking for one mentien only. He found that mention in a fair proportion of them. In bne'case a hOuseholder told the police he thought he had heard Someone moving about, but had decided it was only -..a taxi he saw from the window moving down the street. In another case a man on the beat saw a taxi turn a corner about the time a burglary was committed in the next street. Sergeant Bird reported his find to his superior. "I think thieves are using a taxi for their getaway, sir." At a fresh conference old Fly- ing 'Squads hands vetoed any suggestion that the taxi could be one regularly employed for hire, "Would be too risky," they said promptly. "Besides, no driver ,woUld jeopardize his• livelihood by hiring out regularly to crooks and waiting around to pick them up-" In the opinion of the men who knew all about the users of Lon- don's streets after dark any taxi employed as a getaway car would be an obsolete one, "There are plenty of them about," they pointed out. "Any private citizen can buy an old taxi that's no longer licensed as a hackney carriage and use it as a 'private car with an ordinary road fund licence, That's quite legal." But late at night anyone seeing such a 'vehicle would naturally assume it was a taxi. Not even a policeman on beat would give it a second glance, according to Leonard Gribble in "Tit-Bits". However, such a taxi might still have its meter and flag. But it would not be registered with Scotland Yard, and so would not be issued with hackney carriage plates. These are white plates fastened to the rear of taxis ply- ing in the London area, and are quite distinctive by day. A week passed by and on a day in Nov- ember, when visibility in the Thames-side streets was not very good, a Flying Squad driver found what he was searching for. A taxi that looked like a pre- war model was driving through Lirnehouse, in the heart of the East End. It had a meter with the flag turned down, to show that it was engaged and not at that moment for hire, But when the Squad car nosed in behind it there was no hack- ney carriage plate on the taxi's rear, The Squad car swung out of the traffic, gouged the taxi, and the driver had to stop, He jumped out but found his retreat cut off. He doubled his fist and swung it at the first plainclothes roan to come for him. "We're police officers, and we-" But the taxi's driver wasn't listening. He threw himself at his captors, There was a hard strug- gle for one furious minute, and then he was overpowered and handcuffed. One of the Plying Squad men opened the door of the tai, On the leather seat was some of the stolen property, The taxi driver, Whose name was Sid, was taken to the new Limehouse police sta- tion. Sid. was a barrow boy with a police record that included es'- capes freni both a Borstal MAI-, tution and Wormwood Scrubs. He Was a tough Cockney with a shrewd head that he used tot beating the law When he could, He became the first imitate of a cell iii the. new police station,.
