Repossessing Cars

Police Chief Tony Sullivan Wants to begin seizing t he cars driven by drunken drivers.
While testifying before a legislative committee in the state capital this morning, Sullivan said police
officers in the state need the authority to seize the vehicles used by motorists convicted three or more
times of drunken driving. Sullivan’s proposal would al so apply to motorists convicted of driving with a
license suspended or revoked because of drunken driving—and to motorists convicted of driving under
the Influence of drugs.
“Were running across too many repeat offenders,” Sullivan said. “They ignore the laws now in effect, and
it is time to do something about it. It doesn’t do any good to just take away their licenses. They’ll drive
without one.”
Sullivan said some motorists in the state have been convicted of drunken driving more than a dozen
times. “We’ve got people who’ve served a year in jail, some who’ve served five years,” Sullivan said. “It
doesn’t seem to do any good. weather they have a license or not, they start to drink and drive again as
soon as they get out. If we take away their cars, they’ll have to stop. Unless they’re ultra-rich, there’s a
limit to how many cars they can afford to buy.”

2. Tobacco Ban
Beginning next fall, students in the city’s public schools will have to leave their cigarettes and other
Tobacco products at home.
The School Board last night voted 6 to 1 to BAN the possession and use of all Tobacco products on
school grounds.
“The boards policy will apply to everyone,” said Gary Hubbard, superintendent
of schools. “it’s not just for our students. The policy will also apply to our teachers, other school personnel
and, in addition, to any visitors using our facilities.”
Students found smoking on school property will be reprimanded for a firs t offense, detained for a second
and expelled for three days for a third. School personnel will be reprimanded by their principal. Other
people will be asked to stop using the tobacco products or to leave the school grounds.
“Previously,” Hubbard said, “we allowed students to smoke in some designated areas both inside and
outside our bldg., in our football stadium s, for example. It is bad for their health, and we decided last
night that we weren’t being consistent. It doesn’t make any sense for us to tell students, in their classes,
about the dangers of smoking, and then to allow them to smoke under our supervision. Besides, We were
getting a lot of complaints from non-smoker.”

4. Edit the following :


Humans have used certain animals to carry heavy loads for thousands of years. The ox, the elephant, the
donkey and the mule are examples of these ‘beasts of burden.’ Although having a reputation for being
stubborn at times, people find that these animals normally work hard for long hours. One beast of burden,
however, refuses to be overworked. The Lama, a South American animal much like the camel, has very
definite ideas of what it’s willing to do. Knowing just how much it can carry comfortably, an extra half-
pound placed on its back will cause it to sit down and refuse to budge. In addition, the llama will carry a
burden only a certain distance. Sitting down in the middle of the road, nothing will convince it to continue
after it travels twenty miles. Sometimes its owner tries to prod the llama after the animal has decided to
quit with a stick.
