Mrs. Emil Johnson ‘was shot in the arm and the leg and her daughter, Mrs. wounded in the leg. Bullets crashed through wind- shields of several cars and shattered windows in nearby buildings. John Evans, oil station employe, who fired several shots at the bandits, said the driver of the car was replaced, apparently wounded. H. §.
