Hoosier’s ‘Tick’ 1d Fails to Click In Wyoming Jail

CHEYENNE, Wyo. Feb. (UP)—Sheriff N. E. Tuck a today .that Robert Sanders apparently can turn the ‘ticking” noise in his head off and on .at will. The strange noise in his head

| |

has netted Sanders, 36, a railroad switchman, £28000 in insurance claims. | ve

He pleaded guilty .here Saturday on a charge of obtaining $400 of the sum from the Union Pacific Railroad under false pretenses. Sanders fell off a boxcar here Oct. 26, 1950, and when doctors

examined him they heard the steady “tick, tick” without a stethoscope.

After collecting the $400 from the railroad, Sanders walked out of the hospital and was not heard from again until his arrest on a vagrancy charge in Milwaukee, Wis., last week. He has been held here since Saturday, but. his head has not “ticked” once. “I got a cold and I'm not feeling good,” he told the sheriff. i

n n = THE SHERIFF and his deputies believe Sanders is refusing to “tick” deliberately.

The sheriff said Sanders, of |:

Loogootee, Ind., made a good thing out of his unusual charac-

teristic. He said Sanders would | work on a job, then claim some

injury. When doctors examined him, the sheriff said, they would hear the “ticking,” and insurance companies usually were quick to settle. The doctor who examined him here said: the ticking sounded like “a great big alarm clock.”

at the meeting of the organiza-| tion yesterday afternoon in the Roberts-Park Methodist Church. Dr. Grover 1..
