Cop Getting Speeders

Johnny Anderson, now county Traffic Officer, continues to bring speeders into recorder’s court and to secure convictions. Two defendants on charges of speeding before Trial Justice Spence Saturday were Sam Baum and Rufus Johnson, who were fined $10 and costs each.

The only other case in court Saturday morning was one involving a charge of drunkenness, in which a fine of $5 and costs was imposed upon the defendant, Lem Hewitt.
