Man Needs Taxi ,
To Carry His Money
Bill Lamme, who with Mrs.;
Lamme left Wednesday on
the first leg of on around-the
world trip, had so much
money he had to call a taxi to
take it to the bank Monday.
It was the weight of the
cash that gave Bill the
trouble.
For the past year he has1
been collecting silver dollars
and salting them away to help
pay for the trip.
Monday he discovered he
had over 900 of them. When,
he tried to carry them to the
bank he found that he was
“too heavy” with coin.
