Manhattan Housing Crisis Drives Tenants To Tiny Rooms
A writer laments Manhattan living limits amid a severe housing shortage. He notes a few 23 to 50 room flats offered without trouble but questions permanency, cites the Schwab mansion as a nearly unavailable landmark, and describes chaotic turnover after a West Side death. More than 50 applicants rush in for a single flat, highlighting absurd demand and precarious leases. The piece mixes humor with a wary view of urban flight to suburbs.

Beware Sign Speeds Cops Hide in Rocks in Spokane
Spokane dispatch reports traffic officers on a normally busy highway set up to nab speeders found no violators pass by. A crude sign, described by Lloyd Ferguson as the most effective traffic sign ever seen, warned drivers to slow as they approached the concealed police position.
