He requested her to send his letters to the "Carroll rooming house.” He was serving a 30-day sentencesheriff’s officers say that the majority of‘prisoners take great pains jto remove the jail return address printed on the envelopes furnished by the county. Others with money lof their own buy plain envelopes. 1 The local officials make no at-! [tempt to prevent the inmates front deceiving the home folk. ] i \ The inmates’ incoming mail al- i

Y. —(UP)—Howard Hickey an,) Boris Shappick 'parked their truck in front of a local restaurant, stretched their cramped muscles and sighed with relief. They had just completed a trip from Jersey City, N. J., where they i delivered a truckload of cattle. “Yes. sir” Hickey sad, turning to his partner, “that was some trip, j Now .1 suppose the boss wants hie j money.” Hickey felt in his shirt pocket for j the wallet containing $1.062 — spII- j Ing price of the cattle.
