THREE MEN SEIZED
AS BOYS KIDNAPERS
Angelina Cristini Identifies
One as Having Kept Her
Prisoner.

Three men were arrested yesterday
charged with taking part IN the kid
naping of Angelo Cristini, II. who dis
appeared Monday from his home at 297
Avenue A. Detectives believe that he
was kidnapped by the same band that
a year ago kidnapped his sister Angelina.
IS, and held her prisoner in Boston
for several months.
The first man arrested was Joseph
Vacaro, 80. Of 274S Hughes avenue The
Bronx. He was, seiZed at his home,
where he lives with his wife and several
children, and denied knowing anything
about the disappearance OF the boy.
Nevertheless he was taken to the Cris-
TIM home. and Angelina, the sister cried
out:
"Why, this is the man i was kept
at his house in Boston last year y
Vacaro was held without ball and
turned over to the detectives who are
conducting the search for the boy and
trying to round up the band OF kid
napers Last night Detectives La Bat
taglia. Brennan and Repetto, acting pre-
sumably on information obtained from
Vacaro, arrested Salvatore Fishero, "a.
of 313 East Thirty-eighth street. now
a patient In Columbus Hospital. and
Nuncio Tomasi. A, Of GA East Six
teenth street.
Tomasi and Fishero are brothers-in-
law. Fishero was arrested soon after
the Cristini girl was returned to her
home last year, was tried in the Fed
eral Court and was acquitted. During
the trial, detectives allege. Vacaro
threatened Angelina that If she testified
against Fishero the entire family
would be destroyed. She testified
against him. but he was acquitted. Since
the acquittal Of Fishero Cavaro is al
legged to have visited the Cristini home
and tried to see Angelina. When he
was refused admittance, it is alleged,
he went away muttering that he would
have revenge.
Detectives working on the disappear
ance of the Cristini boy said last night
that they were rounding UP the band
rapidly and that they believed they
would have the boy to-day. They would
not say, however, that they had located
him. 3.N
Besides the three detectives who
made the arrests last night Detectives
Riley, Christiana, Gilbert and Ollowsh
of the Bomb squad also are working on

Organized to Take Up
Various Phases.

Gentiles, Hebrews, Alumni and
Students to Be Asked Their
Opinions.
STARTS WORK AT ONCE

Special Dispatch TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. June 2s.-The COM
mittee of thirteen members OF the Har-
ward faculties appointed to consider
limitation of enrolment met to-day and
was organized into four subcommittee
by Prof Charles Hall Grandgent OF the
department of romance languages. who
is chairman of the general committee
appointed this week by President Lowell.
The members of the first committee.
which will start Its work Immediately.
are Paul Joseph Sachs, professor OF
fine arts and assistant director OF the
Fogg Art Museum; Harry Austryn
Wolfson assistant professor of Jewish
literature and philosophy; DR.. Milton
Joseph Rosenau. Charles Wilder, pro-
fessor of preventive medicine and
hygiene at the Medical School, and Dr.
Lawrence Joseph Henderson, professor
of biological chemistry at the same in
stitution. With the exception OF Prof.
Henderson the committee is composed
Of Jews.
This committee will consult with
alumni of Harvard University. regardless
of creed. and other persons, and in par
ticular. as President Lowell wrote AL
fred A. Benesch of Cleveland a week
ago, to "get into communication with
the thoughtful Jews in this country"
The second committee will deal with
university statistics, collecting them
from all departments of Harvard. and
will be composed Of Chester Noyes
Greenough, dean of the college; Wallace
Bret Donham. dean of che business
school. and Henry Winslow Holmes
professor of education and dean of the
graduate school Of education.
The third committee will be composed
of Henry Pennypacker, chairman of the
committee on admission; Harry Els
worth Clifford. Gordon Mckay. professor
OF electrical engineering, and Prof.
Grandgent, and its duties will be to COR
respond with other colleges to ascertain
if similar problems exist at these instf-
tutions or not, also what methods they
have adopted to eradicate them IL any.
The membership of the fourth COM
mittee is Theodore Lyman Hollis, pro-
fessor of mathematics and natural
philosophy and director of the Jefferson
Physical Laboratory; Samuel Willis
ton Dane. professor of law. and DR..
Roger Irving Lee and Henry K Oliver,
professor OF hygiene. Its duties have
to do with influencing undergraduate
opinion. In the fall this committee will
advise with students.
At present Jews are excluded with
very few exceptions. Prof. Grandgent
says. from the college social clubs, just
as they are in many other institutions.
The committee will endeavor to contend
against this anti-Jewish feeling in an
effort to find out whether If fewer
Jewish students were admitted the clubs
would accept a greater number into
their ranks. just as they were accus-
toned to do when there were fewer
members of the race at the college and
the best of them were admitted to these
organizations.
