Given Term in Jail
James Whelan Will Serve Thirty
Days for Hit Love of
Stolen Pleasure.,
Boldly admitting his tendency to appro
priate automobiles, James Whelan, 17 -year-old
"Joy rider", was Friday morning sen
tenced to thirty dsys In the county Jail.
With Whelan appears George Sanderson,
a young mechanical engineer of Beatrice.
Whelan w1th8anderson and another youth
named Herber Bh river, stols the automo
bile of A. H. Walsh, recently.
The three with a young woman drove the
car at breakneck speed until the gaso
line supply wss consumed and abandoned
the machine In the vicinity of Elmwood
park. Mr. Walsh testified that his ma
chine had been injured to. the extent of
about HOD.
In the trial It appeared that Sanderson,
who Is a graduate of Nebraska university,
did not know that the automobile was
stolen at the beginning of the rids. Judge
f rawford, however, found tbs young man
guilty and sentenced him to thirty days,
because of the fact that his knowledge
of the theft later did not deter him from
remaining with the Joy riders, ganderson
took an appeal and was released.
8hiter has not yet been arrested.

of medical students was plaoed on guard.
