Letter to the Star criticizes police car engines at Front Royal
The letter challenges Police Chief Charles V. Rutherford claiming current Front Royal police cars with 400 cubic inch engines are adequate for the town. It argues a larger town would need stronger engines and accuses the chief of misrepresenting speeds by saying a 1964 station wagon and a souped up 1953 model outrun the police cars.
