Girl Assists Three
Bandits In
Hold-up

NEW YORK, Nov. l3.-Alded
by a stylishly dressed young
woman, who stood at the door
as lookout, three young bandits
held up a drug store last night
and made their escape in an
automobile.
The bandits rifled the cash
register, then went through the
clothing of Andrew Phillips, the
druo"ist in charge, and finally
took TIE handbag of a woman
customer who was waiting for
a prescription to be filled.
Two of the bandits came in
with the girl, while a third man
remained in the auto. One OF
the men pretended he wanted to
make a purchase, and, as the
druggist was showing him an
article, suddenly drew a gun and
ordered hands up.
