Sacco-Vanzetti case to the annals
Of criminology, promises another
murder case which may become al
most as celebrated a cause.
That is the case involving Gangi
Cero and Samuel Gallo. both Of
whom have been convicted by
Massachusetts, juries of numbering
the same man. Joseph Fantasia.
The state does not claim that the
killing was committed by two men.
as only a single shot was fired. but
two different juries. at different
times. decided that two different
men fired the single shot.
Never previously in the history
OF Massachusetts, has such a situa-
ton arisen. When a jury returned
a verdict Of murder in the first de-
gree against Gallo. Cero was al
ready under sentence Of death for
the crime. and at one time had been
in the death house. within hours Of
the electric chair. before a reprieve
arrived.
His Name Reversed
The case has many weird angles.
For one thing, the name OF the man
first convicted for the murder
Is not Gangi Cero at all. but Cero
Gangi. His name was once listed.
as many names sometimes are. with
the last name first. This was copied
by some official who failed 10 no.
tice the comma between the names.

nothing to rattle and no joints to

the brakes depend only on the funda-
