PLAN TO TRAP
 BANK ROBBERS

Washington, July 27.-(UP)- Bank robbers might as well leave calling cards behind them if a new identification system works out as the governments scientific crimin- ologists hope.
 The new study is based on the fact that habit is a controlling in- hucnce in bank robbery just as in everything else. Some bandits al ways work in pairs, for instance; others in larger groups. Some habitually kidnap hostages to shield theil escape. Some always force their victims to lie prone: others make them reach for the ceiling.
 These and other characteristics of known bank robbers are being carefully classified. When the tech nique employed in new robbery coincides in major particulars with that of known gang. it is-believed Identification of the criminals will be much easier.
