The pilot who flies a great deal

BAMBOOZLED BY STRANGERS ON
 WEDDING EVE. Old Story of a Fool and His Money Being Easily
 Parted BUNCoED OUT OF $500 BY" 'KERCHIEF GAME" Film Planning Began Tn Main Street With Local
 Man the Victim

With his nest egg of $500, saved from the proceeds of five years hard work to pay for a honeymoon trip and to furnish a home, swept away by the working of the old moss-grown Handkerchief game John Benigeno of 12 Lee avenue is bending every energy to get back at least a part of the money so that the wedding may take place in about two months. State Policeman Frank Virellf has been en- listed in the search, the two passing several days in New York trying to identify the two smooth-taIking
 Benigeno was at Golden Hill and Main streets the afternoon of Feb. g when 8 stranger approached him, ask ed for a ficiticious name and address and then started the conversation. He had been called from Italy to Cah4 fornfa through the death of brother and collected 1000 from the con- cern which employed his brother. His spiritual adviser, he said. had advised him against taking that amount to New T York alone, gave him the name of the Bridgeport person and advised him to visit himtand have him accom- pany him to New York.
 It. was then. that another stranger came along and broke into the com versatio1. He appeared to know the name and address wanted but said that the first stranger would have to pay both himself and Benigeno. It was here that the first one appeared to doubt the honesty of both and said that they must show that they too had some money. The second one had a roll of about $500. Benigeno said that he had $500 in the bank. That interested his auditors and they per- suaded him that drawing, out the amount tenporari1y was an easy way to earn S206s The bank was closed for t11eGday then but, in order to re- ceive protection the first stranger got Benigeno to pass the night with him at the Atlantic hotel. Tn the morning the money was secured at a. local bank and the usual changing of money into paper by the substitution Of one hand kerchief for another followed.
 Benigeno sought out Policeman vire1Ii with tears in his eyes and on the verge of collapse Losing tho money was bad enough, he said. but losing it just before his wedding was a terrible blow.
