So George Vichos, 27, of Detroit, told police after he had been picked up Friday night for inves. 'tigation of taking money under false pretenses with an ingenious idea on how to get rich.

On a cart beside him was an old Army ammunition box painted blue with a hole punched in the top. The name of the bank was stenciled on the side. When the bank's first night customer arrived, Vichos told him the deposit lock had been jammed! with gum and could not be repaired till morning. "I was asked to stay late and pick up the deposits," Vichos told the man. "Your money will be' safe." The customer, a furniture store manager, turned over the day's in cash and similar amount in checks.

Vichos dropped them through the slot in the box. After leaving, the customer had some misgivings about the strange operation and called police. Vichos was still at the bank when police arrived.

There was a scuffle between a demonstrator and a spectator, but it was unlikely either Macmillan For Eisenhower saw it because their car passed swiftly through the gate. At Macmillan's 600 year old country residence, he and Eisenhower presumably got started at a lunch on their discussion of international problems. They planned to retire to a cozy second floor room, known as the Long Gallery, for further discussion of such problems as West Berlin, disarmament, a ban on nuclear weapons tests, and strengthening of the North Atlantic alliance. The day was beautiful clear, crisp and brilliantly sunny. Eisenhower and 1 Macmillan (Continued From Page One) Eisenhower in the villages along in a gray Rolls Royce convertible with the top down.

Each wore a topcoat, and the smiling President frequently tipped his hat to folks who called out cheery greetings. In the picturesque Chiltern Hills area, men hoisted small children to their shoulders for a better look at Eisenhower and Macmillan. On the way through the village of Chinnor, a woman standing in front of Parslow's butcher's shop waved at the President and remarked: "He looks grand." A bit further on, in front of the corner house pub, the President got another big round of cheers. Near the entrance to Macmillan's residence four girls held up a placard reading: "Nuclear disarmament now." Still another sign just beyond a pub called The Swan had this message: "Welcome Ike. Come on in." Cheers and dries of "I like Ike" echoed as: Eisenhower stepped from a Royal Air Force Comet! airliner at Benson Air Base a base he knew well from his days as the Allied- commander in World: War II.

Eisenhower looked rested and relaxed. He beamed at the cheer(ing crowd. After shaking hands with the plane's crew he turned to walk to' his waiting car. Photographers asked for another picture with the crew. He obligingly walked back and posed.

This delighted the crowd and brought more cheers. "That's jolly good of hime." on remarked a woman standing in a a roped-off enclosure. Eisenhower got up early to head back to the conference table. He was awakened by the skirling on bagpipes of the royal piper. Queen Elizabeth 11 and other.

Empire League slogans blared; and from the loudspeaker of a nearby last sound truck as the official car made a sharp turn to wheel through the narrow gate in the brick wall surrounding Chequers. The Eisenhower Macmillan meeting, which British newspapers have dubbed "the little summit," has no fixed agenda. The talks are expected to include a broad survey; of the international scene before Eisenhower's exchange of visits -Leo with Soviet Premier Premier Nikita Khrushchev.

It has a beautiful view of the Civic Center. It has a machine that can wash 10,000 dirty dishes day. It can feed 6.000 customers day--and the food is good. What it needs is customers.

It's being boycotted. One day last week it had only 400 customers. "It would appear," said County, Supervisor Kenneth Hahn, "that the operator got oit on the wrong, foot." On opening day, Leonard Gia-: ser, who operates the cafeteria rental from the county, noticed good luncheon trade. But few ple showed up for coffee He nosed around the big, new courthouse and found out why: the first floor there was an em-1 ploye-operated "Siesta Ciab" that was selling coffee and doughnuts by the gallons and thousands--at half the price charged in the handsome penthouse facility. Glaser batted out a strongly worded letter to the Board of pervisors.

He charged: His business venture on the roof was being undermined by amateurs on the first floor. He had pay rent (it's per cent of gross), and the Siesta Club didn't. He had to pay his help and Siesta Club used file clerks on county payroll to serve refreshments almost all the time. The of county snack turned bar over tion the to Glaser, too. He promptly raised the prices from 5 to 8 cents.

And the tomers began to say away droves. Many employes com-' plained Glaser was "highhanded." "I'm only serving 400 meals day," Glaser complained a little later. "I must sell 600 to break' even." Even the snack bar virtually deserted. Everyone agrees the boycott (was unofficial -but effective. Supervisor Hahn suggested if it didn't ease in two weeks--by Labor Day the county should take the cafeteria operation from Glaser.

To try to patch things up his customers the 5,000 county. workers in the Civic Center Glaser gave away free coffee doughtnuts for three hours Tuesday. District Fur Trapper Convicted GREENSBURG, Pa.
