Policemen were on duty all day at the intersections and until six Tuesday night when the lights finally were repaired. Fortunately for the police, the day was compar atively warm. Wednesday morning, a truck, swinging the comer, brushed one of the posts, but this time did no damage. However, it was decided to set them back somewhat fur ther from the road, and the crew got busy again on this job. Wednesday evening, anAher truck tapped one of the posts lightly, a gain with no damage, except to the nerves of Dunn policemen when they heard of the Incident. The problem of whether to pro vide the posts with “wrap around" bumpers or to relocate them again, is now under consideration. ‘ Guard Witnesses In Me Trial NEW YOtUC (W The vice trial of Minot F.
