on Pavement.

NEW YORK, April 4.-Gustave
Muranyi, an artist, was severely In
jured and is temporarily crippled as
the result OF savage attack on
him. by hold-up men near the en-
trance to Central Park. His left
arm was seized by one Of the two
bandits and, forced backward with
sudden twist that dragged It from
its socket. When Muranyt collapsed
TO the sidewalk the robbers took $IS
from his pocket and several small
articles of jeweiry.
After the robbers had vanished
several passsrsby assisted the artist
to q taxicab. His physician at.
tended him at the studio, when he
was removed to Bellevue Hospital
for an operation to remove the frag.
ment OF broken bone. to repair torn
lligaInents and to adjust the disloca-
ton.
Muranyi said he had made no re-
port Of the attack and robbery to the
police because he was able to give
merely q meager description OF his
ASSISTANTS, which he believed would
be useless In an effort to find them,
1.-THE assault on me came 50

that both Of the hold-ttp men had
caps drawn over their eyes, said
Muranyi. At first thought they
were q couple Of "bums,' and, re.
senting their insolent manner,
Iheeitated. Then the taller Of the
| two robbers seized both OF my arms
from behind while HIS compantOu

My arm was limp and seemed torn

somewhat regained my strength and
had struggled to my feet the
bandits had disappeared"
The portraits OF many well-known
