On Saturday, July 17, 1926, two doctors visited Uti ;a. and upon entering the city failed to'decrease the speed of their car, which was forty miles per hour. A traffic officer stopped them., saying: “Don’t you know that you’re breaking a city ordinance? ..I’ll have to take you up.” The driver, with quick thought, said; “I’m a doctor, and am taking a patient to the State Hospital,” This did not look quite right to the traffic officer, but’when when the other doctor leaned out of the car and said to him “Kiss me, officer,” they were instructed to • drive on.
