AUBURN, Calif (UPD - Robert Y.
Young is a motorcycle enthusiast, an
attorney — and an ex-convict. Next
Jan. 3 he will be sworn in as a Justice
Court judge.
Young, 36, defeated adlaw and or-
des" candidate in the general election
by 83 votes out of 10,000 cast He made
no secret of his criminal record and it
was never a major campaign issue
among voters in the Sierra Nevada
foothill region
Bible college "student. Young ac-
cumulated conviction, for
misdemeanor offenses of public
drunkenness and driving a motorcycle
without the owner's consent when he
was 19.
In the same year he was convicted of
taking a credit card from a letter
mistakenly sent to his home and
passing it on to a friend — a felony.
Sentenced to six years at a federal
reformatory, be served 20 months and
waa paroled
After leaving prison, he attended
California State University at Loa
Angeles, but ran with a motorcycle
gang because "I still hadn't gotten
away from my old values "
HE PROMISED voters to work full
time at the $12,000-a-year judge's post,
which means he will take a $7,000-a-
year pay cut from his current Job as an
assistant Placer County public
defender.
~My basic feeling is that everybody
■ the system has a primary duty — like
the policeman’s to arrest suspects.''
- Young said “But their secondary duty
is to do everything they can to see that

system."
"I think I can help people, after they
are punished, to help gain their self-
respect and respect society again."

shows there’s hope"

from the gang and a more positive
attitude to his parole officer at the time
"He had a lot of faith in me. 1 also had a
lot of friends and family who cared."
Young said it was his prison ex-
periences that gave him the desire to
become a lawyer.
“The criminal justice system doesn’t
do much lo help people. I felt people in
the system were needed to care about
those involved, like the people who
helped me," said Young, who lives with
his wife, Linda, an adopted son, and
nine motorcycles in a mobile home on
11 acres of rural land.
Don’t neglect fire safety
Check your home to help avoid tragic blaze
By The Associated Press
In their concentration on other home
security, some people have become
carless about fire prevention.
Not long ago several youngsters lost
their lives because they were trapped
by other security — a dead bolt lack
which could be opened inside only by a
key
MANY HOMES do not have an
emergency fire extinguisher Some
youngsters have no idea what to do in
the event of fire One woman froze
when she saw her range on fire She had
nothing to fight it with, but fortunately'
managed to turn off the burner which
controlled the oil fire that had started in
a frying pan — in seconds the flames
had reached three feet and were licking
the cupboards
Safeguarding the home and family
against fire should become a habit, not
a once-in-awhile consideration For
example:__________________
—Small children should not be left at
home alone and baby sitters should be
told how to escort children to safety in
the event of fire Older children in the
family should know what to do in an
emergency It isn't enough to leave a
telephone number where parents might
be reached, the usual idea By the time
- they are contacted the home might be
in flames A fie department number
and a neighbors number are more
important
—BEFORE LEAVING on a trip,
paints, gasoline and other flammable
things should be removed from the
house Stacks of papers should be
removed Many towns now have
restrictions about burning papers and
some people are storing them,
sometimes in closets, before taking
them to a disposal depot
—Be sure fire insurance is paid and
that you have updated it before you go
on a trip. The smallest fire, can be
THEM
costly, and even with a policy may still
coat the insured person *100, the
deductible figure A small fire can
smudge wallpaper, paint and ceilings in
such a way that an entire room may
need to be refurbished
-SOME UTILITIES should be shut
off even if you are going on a short trip.
If electric service boxes have separate
switches tor different areas, timers can
be left on even though the range,
refrigerator, dishwasher, water and so
on, are turned off
—Try to use perishable foods so that
the freezer and refrigerator can be
turned off if you plan an extended
vacation in the event of a power outage
you can lose everything in the freezer
Some people make exchange deals with
neighbors to store freezer food.
—If someone will check out your
furnace. It can be safely left on During
a cold period you may have no alter-
native because of pipes
