(International) Robinson Crusoe Gloats Over Life ' Rents lowa Island For sls A Year IXXVENiPORT, la. VP — A mod-ern-day Robinson Crusoe, who rents his island for sls a year, gloated today about his solitary, payefree life with five dogs, sopie pigeons and 1,500 chickens. Twenty-five years on the island have convinced Frank Drobot that Crusoe was crazy to let himself [ be rescued. \ "This is the life,” Drobot said. “No wife, no one around to bother me. I raise enough to feed hie. wonk enough to save a little money and pay my sls a year rent.” Drobot has such a hermit complex that he even calls himself Robinson Crusoe, and so do his few friends. Me once fooled an employer so thoroughly that the man put the famous name on Dro'bot’s pay card. Drobot’s island is located in the middle of a quarry on ‘the way to Credit Island Park in West Davenport. When he first rented the\ island 25 years ago it was a little snug--20 feet by 20 feet. Since then he’s filled in and built it up to 100 by 100. ( Occasionally, he leaves his solitude for odd jobs “just: to get what little money 1 need. - ’ Drobot abandoned conventional’ habits ‘‘because living was too high and I got this land for $5 a year.” Since then, inflation has tripled the rent. He has no electricity and washes his clothes in a tub over an open fire. Unlike his namesake, Drobot has ho beard) and no man Friday. He says he’d rather.be alone.
