From Danger Of Theft;
50% Return Estimated
Bicycle registrations for 1942 al-
ready have exceeded the high 1941
mark by more than 1000, the police
department's full time bicycle inves-
tigator, Officer Walter Schmid said
today.
Four thousand bicycles, voluntarily
enrolled by owners at the City Clerk's
office, are now in Schmid's elaborate
files which list the tag number, own-
er's name and address, make and
serial number.
While bicycle thieves, inspired by
the great war-made shortage of bi-
cycles, steal as many as five a day
of Ann Arbor's supply, police have
estimated that 50 per cent of the
losses will be returned if they have

In the "preliminary military bat-

after the war "we inust be united to

To reinforce the spirit of unity,

by the audience.
The full text follows:

" Detour?
Police yesterday raided the "pi-
rates' den" of two brothers and found
a garden tractor, a rifle and almost
$200 in coins which were stolen Wed-
nesday from the Harry W. Cole farm,
917-1 Waters Rd.
The two boys, one eight and the
other 14 years old, who had stolen the
tractor and driven it to their "den" in
a woods off Arbana Drive, were turn-
ed over to police yesterday morning
by the father of one of their play-
mates.
Suspicion was aroused by the
youngsters when they were seen play-
ing with three revolvers and a large
bag of coins. Sheriff's deputies have
confined them to a special room in
the jail pending further action in the
case.
Officials are still puzzled as to how
the boys drove the stolen tractor
through town with a homemade trail-
er containing guns and ammunition
attached and were unnoticed to their
hideout. Asked why they stole the
tractor one of the brothers replied
that they "wanted something to ride
around in."
An unlicensed woman motorist who
turned onto some railroad tracks in
foggy weather thinking they were the
extension of a curve in the highway
held up-three trains and lost her car
early yesterday morning near Huron
River Dr. west of Ann Arbor.
* * *
Unable to steer the car out of the
tracks and confronted by a rapidly
approaching westbound train, the
driver, Mary Ammann, 314 S. Fifth,
and Paul J. Jones, 412 S. Fifth, owner
of the car, jumped from the vehicle
to safety and watched the train knock
it more than 100 feet down the tracks.
Coming along an eastbound track,
another passenger train pushed the
wreckage back to the original position
of the car. After railroad employes
had removed the wreckage a third
train came to a stop behind the east-
bound freight train, just as the first
was leaving.
Jones and Miss Ammann were tak-
en into Ann Arbor on the eastbound
train.
