SHOUTS SCARE
T|M|D BANDIT

Nervousness of a Would-be
bandit saved Edward Spears,
manager of a filling station at
Connecticut Avenue and Yuma
Street from being robbed last
night, he told police.
He said a small man entered
the office and covered him with
a pistol and demanded, in a
stammering voice, that he hand
over his money. Spears said the
bandit "shook like a leaf" and
that the pistol wopbled in his
hand.
Spears said he shouted at him,
and the intruder fled.
