UNHAPPY DRIVER.
PEOPLE SCARED OF NUMBER 13,
TRADE DRIVEN AWAY,
(Australian Press Association.) Received September 18, 11.35 a.m. LONDON, Sept. 17. A Southend motor coach driver who was summoned for not wearing a license badge declared that his number, 13, scared people. When people saw the number they refused to enter the coach. If they saw it en route they demanded to be allowed to get off. The number was gradually ruining him. The magistrate dismissed the suggestion that the authorities should give the unhappy man another number.
