Thievish Tricks
It suddenly occurred te loan-
ly Young French bride at her
wedding reception recently that
the large number oaf well-tad°
young men present Might be per-
auaded to subscribe to a partic-
alarlY deserving charity in which
she was interested.
She surprised her bridegroom
es they sat together at the lunch-
eon table by suddenly taking off
one of her silk garters and hold,
ine it aloft.
"I'm going to auction this for
my favourite charity," she an-
nounced. "What offers, please?"
Offers came thick and fast from
the male gusets. Then twelve of
them had a shock as they reached
for their wallets. They, discov-
ered that they had vanished.
They had been stolen, it was,
later revealed, by a professional
crook who had managed to get
himself engaged as an extra
waiter for the wedding feast. He
was tracked down and jailed.
- Thieves are clever at seizing
opportunities and some will run
great risks to be on the spot at
the right moment. Other crooks
are constantly thinking up new
ways of relieving their victims
of valuables.
What the police of Pretoria,
South Africa, called "night fish-
ing" was practised by a gang
there recently. While household-
ers were asleep with their win-
dows open, these "fishermen" "
crept about outside with long
poles with hooks on the end. Be-
fore the thieyes were finally
rounded up by the police, they
had successfully "fished" cloth-
ing, blankets and anything else
that chanced to be lying around
from the bedrooms.
When another crook was ar-
rested in New Jersey last year
for stealing from car parking
meters, he boasted that he had
gone to the trouble of first tak-
ing a correspondence course in
key-making and had devised two
keys to open all the city's me=
ters.
People living in a Surrey town
often rang up a local taxi-man
when they were going on holi-
day, for he had great reputation
for punctuality and good service.
"Taxi to the station, sir?" he'd
reply over the 'phone. "Certain-
ly. What time?"
His customers always caught
their trains and were well satis-
fied . . at the beginning of their
holiday. But twenty men and
women who hired this particular
taxi had their houses broken into
while they were away. The taxi-
man was eventually caught and
spent five years in jail.
Recent statistics show that on
an average every year a house
is burgled in every other street
In every town in Britain. And
police say that, despite the ut-
most vigilance on their part,
criminals tend to be more auda-
cious today than they were years
agO.
Because a thief was regularly
stealing his gasoline recently, a
motorist set up a camera and
trip wire. Next time the thief
called he took the camera and
ignored the petrol!
Another impudent crook called
at a Londan house and calmly
remarked to the decorator who
was painting the open •frontedoor:
"I suppose the job will soon be
finished, eh?" Then he went to
the top of the house where he
pocketed $750 worth of jewellery
which he found in the woman
owner's bedroom.
As he hurried downstairs, he
encountered her coming from a
ground-floor room. "I'm sorry,
but I seem to 'have got into, the
wrong house," he remarked, and,
raising his hat, went out through
the still-open front door, nodding
genially to the, unsuspecting dec-
orator.
In Denver, Colorado, a man
fell asItep recently while watch-
ing a TV programme in his sit-
lingaroorra When he awoke he
found that a, thief had crept in
through an open window and
itolen the TV set and a radio set.
A crook who believed in tak-
ing no' risk of being chased', got

Very little has changed at
Merriford during the last four
hundred years. Each winter the
meadows are flooded and so
have never seen a plough. Great
ditches run on both sides of

everywhere. Even the boundary
line between the neighbouring
counties follows the meandering
course of the little shire brook,
which has no more sense of di-
rection than a puppy chasing its

In winter, perhaps, a little
damp and a little depressing,
but with the spring, the boun-

marsh marigolds, the wild iris
flaunts its yellow flags along
the ditches . .

CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING
Pounding the pavements of
New York, reporters meet up
With all sorts of situations, news
breaks, off-beat stories, human
interest developments, and sur-
prises.
In this city of skyscraper popu-
lation and vertical travel, this
reporter ran into a particularly
complex affair whereby an ele-
vator was running him instead
of being run.'
It was in the bright, shiny, and
new Socony-Mobil Building-45'
stories high, and one of the larg-
est office buildings to rise in.
New York City in a quarter of
a century, I had business there
and went into the lobby.
From then on it was an elec-
tropic, push-button world. Here
was a "bank" of 32 operatorless
elevators silently arriving and
taking off—unaided by human
hand. They handle with ease
8,000 workers plus thousands of
visitors every, day. -There are
only four lobby attehdants where
in the "old clays" 50 or more
operators and starters would be
needed.
How come these elevators
know so *much? William H.
Bruns, head of engineering' re-,
search at the Otis Elevator Com-
pany, had, the answers, mainly
because he has been with this
firm for over 30 years, and the
firm is new celebrating its first
century of business.
We went aboard one of the
$100,000 "cabs" and when it was
correctly loaded, the electronic
"brain" went to work and we
took off. Passengers, pressed their
floors, doors opened at the right
places and closed at the right
time. It „went up and down at
the bidding of passengers, but
properly operating -with a super-
ior sense of independence.
The elevators through automa-
tic dispatchers, clocks, and 20th-
century gadgets,, adjust to peak..
loads of morning, noon, night,
and the "coffee break." They
know about Saturdays, Sundays,
and holidays and do not move
until they are "told," If the
_building empties or fills at an
odd hour, they adjust for this—
groups of elevators rush to the
rescue of the burdened section.
By the same toketa unless• they
work, they quit,

Police declare that every pro-
fessional burglar has his own
peculiar habits and that' many
leave their "trade marks" on the
Scene of the crime.
There was an. East London
crook who earned the nickname '
r of "Man Friday" because he only
cracked cribs on Fridays. An-
other good-looking young burg-
lar Was called Don Juan because
whenever he encountered the
lady of the house' he would kiss
her, whether. she, Was Old or

If someone stands in the door-
way the doors will try to close
for some seconds, but are so po-
lite they. will not interfere with
the passengers. Then a "Warning
buzzer will sound. If this isn't
effective, the doors will gently
move in, and nudge the person
into "let's-get-going" one way or
the other,
My next stop was the new sky-
scraper at 711 Third Avenue
where, in a beautifully abstract,
mosaic - decorated lobby, stood
John J. Somers, elevator service
engineer for Westinghouse.' He
took me to the roof area of the ,
building "to see the electronic
brain in operation." Here in an
orderly panel-jungle of electron-
ic equipment, the automatic traf-
fic pattern control system was
instantly weighing each change
in passenger load, counting the
calls in both tip and down direc-
tions, counting by-passes and
stops, and even measuring time,
writes Harry C. Kenney in The
Christian Selene° Monitor.
The supervisory` control center
panel constantly selected the
proper pattern tq meet the de-
mands• of the moment. It scan-
ned, counted, measured, checked
and corrected all the operations
during a peak time when hun-
dreds pf passengers wanted in
or out of the building.
Both Otis and Westinghouse
also supply elevators with an
automatic voice. This is an audio
system that transmits messages
automatically to passengers.
The voice can announce floor
numbers, names of tenants, de-
scribe merchandise in depart-
ment stores, or dispense special
information in hotels or build-
ings where transients compose a
large percentage of the passen-
gers. Basically, the voice was
designed to assist the passengers
in normal operations and to re-
assure and inform in the event=
'of an emergency.. In addition,
the•elevaters have intercommun-
ication with the starter.
Various studies have shown
that in New York City-more pas-
sengers are going up and down
than sideways. And in talking
with Mr. Bruns and Mr, Somers,
interesting facets sparkled out.
For instance, 35 to 40 new office
buildings are sprouting about the
city and they will have the lat-
est in operatorless elevators and,
electric stairways.
Right now there are,35,000 pas-
senger elevators of all kinds in
'New York City. They rise and
deSeend 130,000 miles 'eVeaYcleY,
which is the equgialerit'' of -five
times around the globe. This
mileage is enough to make a
trip to the moon in two days.
The Einpire State and Chrysler
Buildings carry about 32,000,000
passengers a year. And at the
65-storied RCA Building, the 40
elevators there have traveled a
Miles a year.
