GIRL TROUBLE
UNITED
IS it*
BROWNSVILLE. Tex—A
couple of young Mexico City
giHs who wanted to tell
their boy friends that they
had arrived in Brownsville
safely, sent fire equipment
scurrying to E. Sixth and St.
Francis Streets. .
Police said the girls were
attempting to mail post
cards when they mistook a
fire alarm box for a mail
box.
“No damage other than
the girls’ embarrassment,” ’
police said.

stantly being built. Distribution facilities are
