SPEEDY RIDE IN JERSEY Enthusiastic Manayunk Party Hrd to Put Up Fine "In Jersey ten minutes and it costs us $55," said one of a party of young automobilists who were corralled in Camden yesterday by Motorcycle Policeman Kay on Haddon avenue for exceeding the speed limit. There were eight in the car, and all were taken to the city jail, where Sergeant McClong said it would be necessary to put up the $55 as security for the appearance of the chauffeur for a hearing today.
