Roberts and Barnard Fined for Speeding, Aug. 27, 1924

Nabbed for Speeding on Guilford Highway

Greensboro, Aug. 26—C.W. Roberts, active vice president and manager of the Carolina Motor Club, and L.F. Barnard, president of the Royal Blue Transportation Company, a bus line owner, were each fined this afternoon before magistrate O.W. Duke here $10 each for speeding.

Mr. Roberts admitted speeding on the Greensboro-High Point road, and it seems that Mr. Barnard was on the road seeing if he could find speeders. Lately he took occasion to declare that if it is not bus drivers who speed but others, and he followed the Roberts car when it was speeding.

Mr. Barnard is president of the North Carolina bus owners association. Both men live here.
