Mrs. Jeffers confided today that their 1940 limousine still has its original set of tires, and even though the family drives but little, lit-tle, the tires soon will be worn out.

However, the pair fled and the truck, loaded with 80 bushels of fruit which was the prison's "share-crop" quota in exchange for the labor, was found by Provo police abandoned near the high school. At approximately the same time as the fleeing trusties were reported missing, a 1940 tan sedan belonging to R. J. Kester of Pay-son Pay-son was tolen from Provo streets at about Second West. The car today had not been recovered, and police had a strong belief that the two prisoners had stolen it and fled.
