A girl with him told police the man gave her a ride when she had car trouble. The girl said she was forced to the floorboard of the car. She said forced his foot on the accelerator, causing the man to lose control of the car, which jumped a curb. A city police unit saw the accident, stopped the car and arrested the driver after hearing lite girl's story. The man is the second person arrested in the Gonzalez case.

Philip Hart says the Agriculture Department may be to choke off a school-breakfast program intended to provide a nutritional boost to seven million poor school children. Hart said in his slate of Michigan alone the department "claims there are no schools interested in starting up a school breakfast program so the department is asking no funds" from Congress to pay for a program there. Yet, Hart said in a statement, state officials have told him at least 400 schools "are indeed eager to participate." Hart said the department (SEE OUR ANNIVERSARY AG IN SATURDAY'S PAPER.
