Caught Bussing

Arrested, tried, sentenced and jailed, last week, for "publicly kissing" were the first two young couples to run foul of a new ordinance of the City of Rome.

Needless to say the ordinance was ordered by Benito Mussolini, than whom no spark sparked oftener or more publicly in his hot youth.

Sympathetic Roman dailies printed only the given names of the jailed couples. Giacomo had been caught kissing Edwige, and Pietro was nabbed bussing Yole. The fact that both couples were engaged was called immaterial. Jail will hold Edwige and Yole for three weeks and a day, Giacomo and Pietro for six weeks and a day.

Eight disgusted parents postponed preparations for two weddings.
