Free Food Gotten In Local Racket in Hope
A local scheme unfolded Tuesday night as John F. Cox Drug Co delivered ice cream to a dark West Fifth Street home for Mr and Mrs W E Smith. The next morning the couple returned melted cream and questioned the ploy. A similar baited order to Checkered Cafe for sandwiches and ice cream at Hotel Barlow led a porter to find several men in a car who seized the food without paying. Proprieter W R Ramsey suspects the same local group used insider knowledge of residents, with a late night note implying the ruse. A Miss Ruby Bettis reported waking to a light in her room, suggesting the culprits timed their calls to exploit Hope residents.
