Trio Who Rifle Cash Drawer Caught While Passing
 Through Webster
All Receive FinSs at Special Court
 Session

Charles Comeau, IT, whose home is in this city; William Ward, 19, who gave his residence as Bangor, l Maine; and Anthony Welcome, 21, t of Worcester, caught in flight after stealing a little over SIP from the till of gasoline station on School street operated by Roy F. Shippee, were arraigned at a special session or the city court, Saturday after noon, and each was fined S25. The two minors entered pleas of guilty through their guardian ad litem, Peter A. Gardner, probation officer.
 1t is a bit uncertain how the three young men became associated togeth- CT and happened to be in Putnam. They either came here or met here and decided to travel on. They had no money. Comeau was unsuccess- ful in getting cash from his father SO Ward, whom the prosecutor be- lieves was the instigator of the plot Go steal, suggested the high handed and unlawful means of obtaining the money.
 Pick Filling Station
 The three scnemers drove to the filling station on School street Friday morning. Clarence Shaw, in charge of the service station, was asked to examine the car to determine it's needs for oil and gas. While one of the trio kept Shaw busy about the car the other two rifled the cash drawer. Soon after the young men left the theft was discovered and re- ported to the police and an alarm was sent out The car they were driving bore sa Massachusetts registration plate and the numbers were noted and furnished to the officers.
 It was assumed that the trio would head toward Worcester and the Web ter police were told of the affair and of the probability of the car heading through that town. It was not long be- 1 fore the young thieves were in GUS tcdv.
 The Webster police guarded the I Thompson road and also kept watch on Main street. Sub-patrolman Mar tin, who is the starter for the Acme Line buses, saw the fugitive ear pas sing the Main street railroad cross ing shortly before noon. Another of ficer was called and the two police men co ntlnauuE1A1a ' ifssf rtH NdA ahA gave chase. At East Webster the officers caught up with the wanted ear and crossed it's path in such q manner that the youths were obliged to stop Co avoid q collision. Three very much surprised young men got out of the ear. They made no resist anee and were taken to the police station.
 Find $13.40
 Searched at the station house it was found that Ward had S7.40, and six dollars in bills was found on the seat of the car. Welcome had six cents and Comeau had no money.
 The young men did not hesitate when questioned. They told the Web ster police the story. Comeau said he had previously worked in Putnam near the place they stole the money.

Goo. Ball Coach. University of Illinois,
I want to break lance with H.
good friend, Knute Rockne Of Notre
Dame.
Knute recently put some poison or
the frame of Grange, asserting that
Red owed his glory to skillful exploit
ing in the newspapers. The Galloping
Ghost, said the master of the Irish
was stopped too often" to be con-
sidered a great star.
AS Oranges coach. I may not be
considered an impartial critic, neither
am I disposed to keep talking about
him, but such assertions as this GER
tainly demand comment.
Although Knute never saw the Red
head play, believe he Is entitled to
his opinion but think he is all wrong
On the few occasions the headlines
meant that Red had not scored a
touchdown.
Feats Tell Story.
How many times did Red fail to
cross the enemy goal?
In 1923 he scored three touchdowns
on Nebraska and Northwestern, two
ON Butler and one each on Iowa, Chi
cago, Wisconsin and Ohio State. He
played 2s5 minutes and gained 1850
yards.
In 1924 he did not score against
Nebraska at Lincoln, simply because
our quarterback elected to pass at the
Cornhusker threshold. But Red gained
1l6 yards in this game, when I was
trying out new quarterback who did
not call on him enough.
In 1924 he scored once against Min
nesota, twice against Butler and Iowa,
three times against Chicago and five
times against Michigan. He played 266
minutes and gained 1,164 yards. Incl
dentally he threw 81 successful passes
which gained 524 yards.
In 1925, the year of the big mud,
Red never had decent field to run on.
He made one touchdown against Iowa
by long run, two against Butler and
three against Pennsylvania. He did
not score against Nebraska, when the
field was slippery. Against Michigan
and Chicago the fields were veritable
quagmireS, and 1t was ridiculous to ex-
pect him to break loose. Against Ohio
State he gained 235 yards, but as quar-
terback, instead of giving himself the
ball when touchdowns were certain, he
showed his generosity of spirit by hand

was built by bally-hoo. Any player
who can make four long runs for
