Melvin Atkins 29 received 1 to 10 years in the Indiana Reformatory for vehicle taking. Judge Saul I Rabb called him the first real car thief in years, noting a profitable sideline of stealing late model cars, swapping parts, and selling rebuilt vehicles. Atkins memorized a Ford key shape during a ride with a salesman, then duped the key and looted the car after luring the salesman home. He admitted repeating the scheme with another wrecked model last March.
