City Police Cooperating with FBI In Solving SOS Drug Robbery Chief H. M. Weight reported Wednesday that officers had a pretty good lead on the case of the SOS drug store which was robbed Sunday evening of approximately $300 in cash and a considerable supply of nar-cotics. A Springville woman passed the drug store at 5 a.m. that morning on her way to work and saw a tall, man with a crew hair-cut in the store. She said her suspicions were not aroused as she thought at the time it must be the owner, but she did won-der why he would be in the store so early. Chief Weight said the store was checked by the night mar-sha- ll at 3 a.m. Entrance was gained by pry-ing a bar off the rear door, breaking the window in the door and entering through the window. Nothing but the cash and narcotics was disturbed. The store is owned by Roland A. Oldroyd. Police say a sim-ilarity in the job with drug-store robberies in Draggerton and Price Saturday night. Local police are cooperating with federal authorities on the case and there is a possibility of something breaking today, Chief Weight said.

Notes on Safety The wife was blamed today for part of the traffic toll. "There may be a few people who will disagree with me," Harry Porter, Jr., manager of the National Safety Council's traffic department, conceded. "But I feel that a motorist who drives after a spat with the little woman has two strikes against him in traffic. "Nagging wives, burnt toast, oversleeping all fall into the same category, as far as I'm concerned," said Porter. "They all tend to take the drivers mind off driving, to make him more susceptible to an acci-dent." Porter agrees that the wife who gently suggests her hus-band lift his heavy foot from the accelerator and who helps him watch out for road haz-ards can be a real benefit. "Women can be life-save- rs if they'll help hubby copilot the family car," he said. Reunion Planned The annual of the "Do You Remember" group of friends is being planned for Wednesday evening, August 5, at the Social Center in Spanish Fork, announces Miss Lucy Phillips, chairman. "Through the Years" will be the theme carried out with Ada Smith, Cleo Heavener, Nellie Condie, and Floss Phillips assisting on the committee.
