In one case police suspected that
a certain ear contained illicit lot-
tery tickets. To find out. they halted
the car for “passing on a curve”—
even though passing on that par-
■ ticular curve happened to be per-
fectly legal.
- As it turned out. the police did
t indeed find lottery tickets in the car.
Nevertheless, this evidence was
J held inadmissible in court, because
there was no valid basis for the
arrest in the first place.
Nor is the search lawful, even
when there really was a traffic vio-
lation, if the search has no logical
relation to the violation. Thus,
police who slopped a motorist for
making an improper U-turn were
held not justified in searching the
car for narcotics.
On the other hand, police who
stopped a motorist for drunk driv-
ing were held justified in looking
for whiskey. Their discovery of a
bottle of gin. half empty, helped
afterward Io convict the motorist
of driving while intoxicated.
Furthermore, the search is law-
fid if. after the car is stopped,
police observe some telltale sign
of criminal activity.
l or example, while an officer
was writing a ticket for speeding, a
passenger in the car shifted his
position — accidentally revealing a
hidden pistol. The officer promptly
made a search, discovering not only
weapons but stolen merchandise as
well Under these circumstances,
the search was held lawful and the
evidence admissible in court.
Of course, the safest procedure
I for the police is to get a warrant
before making their search. But the
law is less insistent on a warrant
for searching a car than for search-
ing a house.
The reason is obvious: whisking
a car out of the jurisdiction is easier
than whisking a house.

AUSTIN, Tex.—A tall, tal-
ented Texan now i-esiding in
Baltimore was honored by the
Texas I’ress Association at its
21st Annual Mill-Winter Meet-
ing in McAllen in January.
Honor lieatowed was that of
“Texan of the Year." It is a
tribute paid annually to some
native Imu'ii Texan now resid-
ing outside the state, who is
bringing honor and distinction
to the State.
Recipient of the l!H>8 Awnrd
was professional athlete Ray-
mond E. Berry, known as
Ntnnlirr 82 on the Baltimore
Colts' NFL fiMithall team.
Berry holds the NFL record
for having caught the most
passes in a career and having
picked up the most yardage
during a career as an offen-
sive end.
In presenting this accom-
plished athlete with the As-
sociation’s large copper en-
graved plaque TPA Pres.
Harold Hudson said, "He was
chosen for his great talent,
his humility of spirit, the
gracious chai-m of his person-
ality, his Texas pride, and the
fame this devoted Texan, na-
tive son and Christian leader
has brought to the Lone Star
State. For 13 years Raymond
E. Berry has brought honor
and distinction to Texas for
his conduct on and off the
field of play and for his lead-
ership and outstanding accom-
plishments.”
Berry was similarly hon-
ored at a testimonial dinner
in Paris last year and more
recently by SMU as an out-
standing Alumni.
