NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8,.1930." Armed Bandits Rob Gas Station, B i Getting $10 and Missing $200 Two armed bandits who held up the Rackliffe filling station at the corner of East Main and Stanley streets 1a% night at 10 o'clock ob- tained $10 in a cash register but missed approximately $200 in the safe. The station was in charge of Paul Savage and an assistant, George Mo- hill. Shortly before 10 o’clock the two men were in the station alone when the two young men, fairly well dressed walked in. Pointing a revolver at the station attendants one man ordered therh to ‘“stick | them up.” | The order was complied with. The gas station men were forced into a| back room. Savage was brought| back agat to the front of the sta-| tion where, still at the point of a re- volver, he was forced to open the | cash register. “Where's the rest of the money?” asked one bandit as the register was found to contain only $10. “The boss just took it away,” Savage re- marked. The remaining $200 was in a safe in the office, awaiting the ar- rival of the manager. The bandits then walked out, the | man with the gun turning back to threaten Savage and Mohill with the gun, ordering them to remain in the station. They walked in the direc- tion of the North & Judd factory and disappeared. | Record time was made by Ser-| geant Thomas J. Feeney and three | motorcycle policemen, in getting to | the scene of the holdup, but the men had fled. The brief time it took the holdup men to make their escape leads the police to believe that they had an automobile parked in the neighbor- hood. Description of the men given | by Savage and Mohill was very| meagre. BOY FALLS 0UT OF TREE BREAKS ARM, COLLARBONE Charles Yenkauskas, 15, of 70 Aus- | | tin Strect, Patient At Gen- eral Hospital Charles Yenkauskas, a 15 year| old youth who resides at 70 Austin | street, was taken to New Britain General hospital last night after he had fallen out of a chestnut tree| near his home. He entered the hospital about| 6:30 and a preliminary examination disclosed that he was suffering from a fractured right arm, fractured col- larbone and an injury to his flghti leg. X-ray pictures will be taken today | to determine whether there are any further injuries.

Druskovitch and several of the Sloga crew were slightly hurt. Responsibility for the | mishap has not yet been fixed. | Rome, Oct. 3 (UP) — Thirty-four | senators sent a message yesterday | to Senator Tacconi expressing their sympathy and indignation for the | assault he suffered at the hands of | a Jugoslav citizen at Spalaco Sep- | tember 26. “The indignation is miti- gated by a conviction that the Ital- an government surely will get ade- quate reparation,” the message said. | Trieste, Oct. 3 (UP) — The Jugo- | slav steamer owners started a suit at Sebencio to recover 9,700,000 | dinars damage suffered to their | steamer Karageorgevich in collision | with the Italian motorship Frances- | co Morosini off Zara, July 6th.

The subject of Mr. Garland's lecture was “Road- side Meetings,” and in this he r lated a number of his many expe ences and contacts he has made dur- ing the past 45 years. He explained the nature of his talk as being peculiarly appropriate in this hurly burly age when young people are so apt to forget that men | 'HAMLIN GARLA A3SOCIATED ORESS CPRIE nxbo-u.ob g | of only a few generations ago really | i lived and are not mere names to be remembered in the classroom. b am a reminiscing old man, and Mr. Garland sald. And then he set out to tell of how he came to be connected with vari- ous personalities, the vicissitudes a young literateur meets before being able to earn a living and the effect of knowing big men intimately. He began with his own history, the time he lived on a farm in South Dakota, and in telling of sub- sequent meetings with men he carried his story down to the present, saying that his being urged to g6 to Boston at the age of 24 indirectly, but certainly, account- ed for his being the speaker at the Normal school last night. Among the acquaintances Mr. Garland listed and jnterpreted to the audience, were James Whitcomb Riley, Mark Twain, Joaquin Miller, and Walt Whitman, each being in his own way a mouthpiece of true Americanism. He recounted anec- dotes and sketches of these men's personalities which made them seem to live before his listeners. “The spirit of American literature must deal with its own material in its own way,” he said. He further in- timated that the background these men have furnished is fertile for the outgrowth of a great American school of poetry. The speaker ended his lift with several men who are living today. He told of Will Rogers, a plain rugged man with a brilliant mind and a captivating personality; of Henry ¥ord, the most “miraculous and inexplicable man of today,” and Brett Harte and Henry James, former Americans who went to Eng- land and who refused to return to this country because they would not find what they left years ago. After speaking nearly two hours Mr. Garland called a halt, that he could go on till Clristma the same fashion.
