'BOSTON POLICE ROUNDING UP ALLEGED GANGSTERS | Six Men Are Arrested On Charge of don of guards outside and inside the | Being Involved In Two Killings Boston, Oct. 19 (A—The police to- day held six men, after a night's roundup of the North End, as su- spects connect.! wfth two assassi- nations. Charles (Big Brooklyn) Gaglione, alleged gang leader, was | killed Eriday night when a man aped on the running board of his| automobile, poured several shots | through the window, and escaped.

Di Pietro, who was known also | as De Caro, had been a visitor in | the flower-banked room where lay the bod¥ of Gaglione.

A hundred ptflr-‘ sons on the streets saw him fall to the sidewalk and saw a young man hurl a revolver at the body and es- cape. | axamination of the revolver show- cd that only three shots had heen fired and the police concluded that two men actually had participated in the shooting.

We didn’t accomplish any distance to speak of. | e | We had the pleasure of listening | to a pretty fast boxing exhibition, and right in the afternoon, too, or | rather late afternoon. The announc- er scemed to think the entire affair was quite funny and he got lots of | laughs out of the whole business, but the laugh was contagious and: we nd ourself chuckling at his irre- ssible giggles. The fights were affairs, but they were chock full of action. These battles of the century emanated from some- | body’s barr, as near as we could Make out and they were broadeast by an amateur station, I-ANE or 1-AME, we don't know which.

The bouts seemed to | be impromptu affairs, since the an- | nouncer didn’t seem to know from bout to bout, who was going to fight next. He gave us his opinion as to the winner of each round and he also bade us “stand by” until the | judges had decided upon the victor, | meanwhile giving his own dope on | the fracas. At the end of the broad- | cast he announced that the cham- plon had been apparently taking | them on one at a time, was still champion, having secured three knockouts and two draws in the course of the festivities. He announc- ed that the station would again be | on the air with prize-fights this afternoon. s And that shows, very clearly, just how progressive the younger gener- | ation is. PRI Honestly, folks, we forgot all the trouble we had been having with radio and we felt repaid a thousand times for something or other, just by listening to that young boy's ef- forts. It certalnly was worth while. Such things as that add to the charm of radio.
