The price of his success was, high. Hundreds of times, Bel- .•snonte was. gored, Unlike his pre- decessors, who extended one leg and held the muleta at arm's length in making their last )passes, Belmonte stood with feet together and bodly drew' the bull's horn within inches of his thighs. Bold, outwardly calm,' Bel- monte was haunted by fear be. lore each corrida. "Fear is my tonstant companion," he once admitted. "You begin to think you're a fool to get into a gaudy mit and play like this with death. But after you've imposed your will on the bull and killed it cleanly and drunk inthe ap- plause of the crowd, you've got to go back again." WE ALWAYS KNEW THAT LAWN -MOWING WAS DANGEROUS Gardeners employed by the. city council in Launcestdit, Tas- 4aania, have been issued with sunning shoes. The council. doesn't wantthem to try to emulate Australia's Herb Elliott; the long -spiked shoes are intend- ed to prevent accidents. As part of their duties, these gardeners have to mow steep lawns running down to the 'streets, several of which slope at in angle of forty-five degrees. If the grass is greasy the . man ,with the mower can easily lose his foothold and crash into the ltreat•be1ow. Recently, two gardeners have ended up in hospital, one with a 'iroben leg and two broken ribs.

Sud- denly, a pollee auto screeehed to . a halt alongside hint. ' A deputy sheriff from neighboring Levy County got out and ambled over to him. "'You're under arrest," he said in a tone of voice he might have used for passing the time of the day. "Arrest? What fors" protested the startled captain, who had driven from Utah for a vacation. "You passed a stop, light in Chiefland," the officer drawled, a thin smile wrinklinghis lips. Then, before the airman could recover from his bewilderment, he turned on the sympathy and said: "It you want 'I10 save the time and trouble of going back to' Chiefland, you. can post a $35 bond with me. You can come back later and 'ask .for a trial, if you want, or forfeit'the bond and forget 'about it." Anxious to snake the most of ,. his vacation, the captain posted the bond and, shaken by Florida highway justice, drove'off. Later, he checked his map and discov- ered that whilehe may have traversed Levy County, he had- never passed through Chiefland! Indignant over this highway robbery, he filed an affidavit with the American Automobile Assn., whichpromptly looked in- to the. matter. ' Soon after the inquiry started, the Sheriff fired his overzealous deputy, explaining: "Even the lo- cals were beginning to complain about him." The AAA investigation uncov- ered a Pandora's box of speed trap evils in Chiefland. Over a four-month period alone,'697 mo-' torists were victimized. Only 17 were local drivers. Practically all the "violators"' were snagged by a trick stop light on•the edge of town. It changed faster than a stripteaser. Chiefland's traffic fines and forfeitures- amounted to $11,043 a year — or approximately, 20. per cent of the town's total rev- enue. The police chief's salary was $1,200 a year. But nobodyex-• pected him to get along on that sum. Neither did he. He'collec- ted $5' for each arrest, pocketing 'cHUTI'NG ALONG - This 33 -foot sloop is on the high seas, and it hos a unique way of propelling itself. Maj, Alfred Fox, stationed in Bermuda, owner of the boat, hoisted a para- chute mainsail to the top of the'spat and let it carry him with the wind. an extra ,y;4i&11g ihi 'flees:" *We this' fee valeta that's at the snot sd the :speed strap evil," Richard. ',Tupper, ,national AAA official, told .the Pdliice Gazette, *In every •statte that permits local offlotws to share a' fee in traffic arrests, you leave motorists vic- timized by speed traps," ' These fee -hungry pirates have 'devised an assortment of suck' traps, or improvised non-existent sd®tations, to extort fines ' and hands from unwary motorists. Their tricks are among the scurv- iest in the 'book; invisible white lines, quick :changing stop lights, hidden or confusing . speed and traffic signs. Recently, a;New Yorker bound dor Palm Beach . was going through a small:. Georgia town when he was halted by an un- .. marked police car on Highway 301, writes Thomas. Reynolds in "The Police Gazette" "'Buddy," the .cop' remarked, "!you were r&uiwing 40 miles an (hour in a 61 -,mile school zone :and passed through •a.red light " 'The driver ,pretested.

' He started to protest but was promptly cut. short," "Shut ups" ' the :cop' retorted, "Don't talk to me like that. I've .been a cop a long time and nobody tells ,me what to do. ' )<'m; the law!" He kept his victim onthe hook until 10 atm., then fined him $19. Hurrying out . of the . station house, he jumped into.. his shiny car to .stalk his next sucker. The New Yorker climbed into ' his dusty coupe and crawled- oft at 10 mph, He wasn't taking .any chances. There was blood in his 'eyes but, he couldn't, -do anything • •about'the racket, t One pian ;did,' though and •it's'• an ironic story:Several years ago, he was arrested and fined in one 'of'these•vest-pocket towns.

Straddling popular MS, Route 301, Ludowici has been on and off the AAA's list' • several times in the past decade.. In one four-month period, the town raked in $45,000• in fines. Ludowici has a fast -changing light where 301 makes a sharp left-hand turn for northbound motorists. The "go'" time was so. short that traffic back up for blocks. Many an impatient driver was nabbed as -he tried to squeeze past the line The situation got so smelly that pressure was brought to bear. And the town, aided by the U.S. 301 Assn„ finally installed a new light, But this didn't faze thelocal constabulary. These zealous law enforcers promptly thought of another way to keep their peck- ets stuffed with "foreign" money. They simply bought themselves a speed timer and lay in. wait on the four -lane street at the south end of town, Houses are scarce there and motorists, thinking they had hit open country, stepped on the gas, The cops had a field day until howls of protest reached the State Capital. The Georgia legis- lature banned the use of speed t mers in local communities. By t apt time, traffic had dropped as much as 40 per cent, Gove nor Vandiver urged the AAA to take the town of its "pass it by" list, 'Its AAA refused, pointing out that-,Ludowici had been a trouble spot' long before the timers were put into' use, Timers or not, "business° We as good as ever for the Chief of Police.
