RbPUbLiC Coffee Break Good Morning! GERARD BRUGGINK is a former Dutch pilot who with his wife came to Arizona after World War II to live at 1521 Williams, in Tempe, and work in air crash studies at Sky Harbor. "Until I came to America," said Bruggink, "I never heard the fable about the little Dutch boy who saved his country by putting his finger in the dike." By DON DEDERA In all his life, despite almost weekly trips to brook and pond, he had caught only three eels, "It's rather bad," said Foyle. "It may be that I use the wrong bait, but I have tried all kinds, and it has never made the slightest bit of difference." I always wondered what kind of stories amused psychiatrists.

Southwick, of 2339 E. Brill, remembered an incident in the smoke shop he ran in the Security Building about 10 years ago. An old man, bent over and leaning on two canes, came into the shop to buy cigars. "Has the sunshine out here helped your arthritis?" asked the commiserative Southwick. "If it don't pretty damn soon, it never will," responded the old gent.

"I've been here 53 years." THE PSYCHIATRIST, Maier I. Tuchler, sent along a story about William Foyle, 75, president of the Maldon, Essex, England, Angling Club.

According to Ann Encke, the hospital guild women are rapping on doors for donations, sewing drapes and gowns, and planning work parties for cleaning windows, sandpapering woodwork, and landscaping.

Townsmen are hauling earth fill, digging ditches and painting. Every church and club has promised a fund-raising day. Elks Lodge 2090 will have a barbecue and steak fry Aug. 13 in the park across from the hospital. And it is predictable that the first 500 patients of the hospital will have heel blisters, scuffed knuckles, laryngitis, paint burns, and belly aches.

Newspapers confirmed this column's item in May saying New York police were considering solving the problem of hack drivers by mounting a blinker light atop each cab, so a driver could press a foot-pedal or switch if his fare turned out to be a stick-up man.

GEORGE CRANE Crane CASE F-429: James 27, is a neurotic who has spent Several months at a sanitarium where he underwent shock treatment. "Dr. Crane, I was always tense and afraid throughout childhood," he began.

"Maybe it was partly because I was the only boy in a family with six sisters. And I was the youngest child, too, so my ters spoiled me. "But I was always a ed of people and couldn't play baseball or other games with boys of my age for I didn't know how. "Besides, I was a victim of enuresis. So I would stay up late at night because was afraid of going to bed, "Then my father would bawl me out for not getting to bed on time.

But if I went to bed, I'd have an accident and then my parents would bawl me out for that, too. "So I just started out in life all wrong and haven't got straightened out even yet. The shock treatments helped me some, I believe, but I still have no friends and am excessively shy. EVERYBODY TENPS to be shy at first until he learns how to play with other kids of his age and win a few friends. Timidity and fear are usually an index that we don't know how to adjust to the problems around us.

you can swim, you aren't afraid of water. But if you haven't learned to swim, naturally you will be cautious and fearful when you wade into deep water or take a canoe trip. The very same situation holds true of baseball or dancing or having dates. If you have never played baseball enough to be reasonably skillful at it, then of course you may feel shy about stepping up to the plate. And if you have never danced, you'll be skittish about walking out upon the dance floor with your companion.

THE BEDWETTER has simply developed the habit of ignoring the painful sensations of a full bladder. He is exactly like the adult who may also ignore the ringing of the alarm clock, though the latter be on a stand not two feet from his ear. Most parents of bedwetters try to waken the child and march him to the bathroom, even though he is half asleep meanwhile. That doesn't cure him, for the victim must wake himself and take over the full responsibility for his own behavior. But you parents must not wind the clock or set it or hop out of bed and awaken the child.

For that lets you continue to be the "crutch" on which he leans. And he will never overcome this childish habit until he depends upon himself, instead of upon his parents.

(AP) The mystery of a plane that vanished 17 years ago- may have been solved with discovery of the wreckage of a B-24 bomber yesterday in an isolated lake in the High Sierra. A log book found near the half- submerged plane bore the name of William T. Cronin. Cronin, a second lieutenant from Olean, N. was the navigator of qne of two military planes that vanished Dec.

6. 1943, on World War training flights from Fresno's Hammer Field. Others aboard Cronin's plane were Lt. Ellis H. Fish, of Minneapolis; Lt.

Charles W. Turvey, Reeseville, Ohio; Lt. Robert M. Hester, West Los Angeles; Sgt. Howard A.

Wandpke, Toledo, Ohio, and Sgt. Robert 0. Bursey, Rutland, Vt. An open parachute, a brief case and a flight boot with the remains of a foot also were found by Ranger Leroy Brock when he discovered the wreckage in remote Le Conte Lake at the 11,000 foot level in Kings Canyon Na tionaf Park. Driver Convictions In Safeguarded File "NEW SAFEGUARDS to prevent loss of traffic court conviction records are in effect in the state driver licensing division, Earl O'Clair, new administrator of the division, announced yesterday.

Surprisingly. St.

Thomas Aquinas (about £225-1274) says yes. and cites an example. SINCE the lawgiver cannot have in view every single case, he shapes the law according to what happens most frequently, by directing his attention to the common good. There- fore'if a case arise in which the observance of that law would be hurtful to the general welfare, it should not be observed. For instance, if in a besieged city it be an established law that the gates of the city are to be kept closed, this is good for public welfare as a general rule.

But if it were to happen that the enemy are in pursuit of certain citizens who are defenders of the city, it would be a great injury to the city if the gates were not opened to them. And so in that case the gates ought to be opened. Nevertheless it must be noted that if the observance of the law according to the letter does not involve any sudden risk needing instant remedy, it is not the business of anyone whatsoever to expound what is useful and what is not useful to the state.

O'Clair also reported the pubic is accepting new regulations hat anyone applying for an Arizona driver's license must 'irst furnish acceptable proof of identity and that in nearly all instances applicants are appearing supplied with such proof. In a few dubious cases, he said, the division has required applicants to a birth certificate when other proof of identity was lacking. GRAND CANYON (UPI) Two California men trying to swim the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon arrived at Phantom Ranch last night, weary and somewhat battered but apparently suffering no serious effects of their trip.

Ranger E. Lampi said Marvin Stevens, 34, of Los Angeles, and Eddie Drumheiler, 21, Van Nuys, arrived at the ranch in the bottom, of the canyon about 6 p.m. Drumheiler suffered a wrenched back when swirling waters caught him at a point called Hance Rapid, not far from the ranch, yesterday afternoon. His condition was not believed to be serious, and both men said they would try to walk out of the canyon today. The two men entered the water at Lee Ferry last Sunday, 88 miles from Phantom Ranch.

They said they planned to swim the river to Lake Mead. They wore rubber frogman suits and carried food and sleeping bags. The river is low at this time of year and moving about 3 or 4 mph. From what witnesses said, officers determined the vehicle was a 1960 Pontiac, with an aerial that has in the middle. Such an antenna can be slid up or down to get several frequencies in a band.

This indicated to the FBI that the car was owned by a ham radio operator. Of the 1,800 licensed ham radio operators in the state, the FBI learned 300 have special auto tags issued for an additional $3. Jack Monscheln, head of the record bureau for the Arizona Highway Patrol, checked the 300 names and found two men had 1960 Pontlacs. One man was 59 and did not ft the robber's description. The other man was 6 feet 4 and had blond hair, description of the robber, Boyle said.

The man also had a criminal record. Durham Looks To New Post SALT LAKE CITY (UPI)-Dr. G. Homer Durham, newly ap- xiinted president of Arizona State Jniversity, was winding up his affairs as academic vice president at University of Utah yesterday. "The task looks bigger as I dig into it, but it is my hope to close the gap between ending one job and beginning another as much as possible," he said; Durham said he wanted to do everything possible to make "it easy for my successor." No date has been set for Durham to take over at Arizona State! but it was understood he would; address a faculty meeting at) Tempe Sept.

2. CAPTURED Patrick B. Paddock, 34, of Tucson, was arrested yesterday by FBI agents in Las Vegas as a suspect in robbery of a Phoenix bank Tuesday. Photographs of Paddock were flown from Chicago and Tucson by the FBI. Bank employes identified him, Boyle said.

A check In Tucson revealed the suspect had gone to Las Vegas. Boyle praised Phoenix police, the highway patrol, and the sheriff's office for co-operation that led to Paddock's arrest. In Las Vegas, the two FBI agents spotted Paddock outside his car at a gas station. They identified themselves, and Paddock jumped into his car and at. tempted to run one officer down.

THE SECOND agent fired the bullet which stopped Paddock. In the car, agents said, were a loaded revolver, blackjack, and approximately Agents said the car was identical to the one described by Schmidt. In Tucson, Paddock is known as a hot rod racer who keeps his head shaved so he resembles Yul Brynner, an actor. Officers said Paddock served, two terms in the Illinois State Penitentiary at Joliet, once for a confidence game conviction in 1953, and in 1946 on a confidence larceny charge. PADDOCK WAS arraigned in Las Vegas and bail was set at $5,000.

It was not learned whether he admitted the robbery. Ken P. Cole, state representative of the American Radio Relay League, said persons having criminal records are not supposed to be issued a ham radio operator's license. The licenses are issued by the Federal Communications Commission. UNCLE CHARLIE By Peter Laing.
