MINIMUM COAL
 SET BY SCOUTS
$500 Sought By Local Girls COunciI-PIedge
 Cards Planned

Following a thorough investiga- ton of the present need of funds, the finance committee of the Wa terbury Girl Scout council announc- ed today that the minimum goal for the Girl Scout Appeal, from October 1928, would be set at $8,50O. With the announcement the follow ing explanation was appended:
 "The figure arrived at, $8,500, does not represent the entire sum neces- sary to maintenance of the pres ent program at its constructive level. Nor does it allow for essen- tial improvements of equipment and added facilities for increased membership through 1897. But the committee feels that the goal of the Girl Scout Appeal should be a sum reasonably certain of attain ment although the over-subscriptton of the figure must prove the suc- cess of the campaign"
 Importance of the appeal was stressed by the committee members who remarked that "this first sin- gle appeal of the Girl Scouts within several years represents adoption of a policy arrived at after serious deliberation. The fact that there are forty active Girl Scout troops with 1000 members in Waterbury and environs, with increased mem bership surpassing percentage of other years every successive season, indicates that we must build now for the future. Success of the ap- peal means that our growth shall not be restricted
 Headquarters of the appeal at 182 Grand street continues to be the center of unabated activity as the final lists are made and the last of more than 15,000 pledge cards writ ten. These will be ready for dis tribution the last of the week and many will be in hands of the volun- teers before Monday.

LADY BANDIT IS
 FOUND TO BE MAN

Westbrook, Conn, Oct. 14.-UP) Charles Thompson, Mantle, &C., cused 'lady bandit, was held here today on a charge of robbery with violence after a hitch-hiker com- plained he was robbed of s at Clin- ton last night.
 Thompson was wearing women's clothing when his car was stopped by state police at East Lyme. The hitch-hiker, enroute to Rhode Island, said Thompson picked him up at Branford, and at Clinton drove onto a side road, threatened him with gun and took his money.
 When arrested, Thompson wore male clothing but police found femi- nine attire hidden in 8 compartment of his car. His mouth was smeared with lipstick.
 'Tt's my privilege to wear it." he was said to have told the officers when they questioned him concern ing the lipstick.

 Miners Blast Way

0NA bo1 AA6AAOAAA6 AOA POo9OooAOAA VI 1NAo Naranco which dominates the city Miners Blast Way The miners are in the city pro- per, blasting their way house by house eastward through 1t, using dynamite bombs whose fuses they ignite with their long black cigars The besieged Garrison, under Gen Miguel Aranda, is in possession ot the cathedral whose lofty tower overlooks the centre of the city Machine gunners and sharp shoot- CTS are in the tower. Houses all through the area have been made into strong local fortresses. and the main body of the Garrison under Aranda is fortified in the Vega arms factory in the suburbs at the northeast side of the city. In the Garrison are regulars, civil guards, storm guards and Fascist volunteers completing a cast which combines all classes and all kinds of Span iards who are fighting Spaniards in this war.
 The insurgent Garrison is re- treating slowly toward the eastern part of the city, concentrating its defense in the cathedral, the big modern hospital and the strongly fortified Pelayo barracks.
 AS they retreat, the Insurgents resist even more strongly. Fearing a trap, they have retreated stead- fly before the dynamiting miners. But they are well armed with ma chine guns and are in commanding positions from which they can snipe at the attackers.
 Resistance Miraculous
 It is remarkable that the resist ance can have lasted. It is estim- ated that at the beginning there were from 2,500 to 5000 men in the Insurgent Garrison and that their losses must have been 1,500, mostly civil guards.
 Two airplanes dropped bundles, believed to contain medical supplies, inside the Insurgent lines yester- day.
 Two thousand people, mostly wo- men and children, who had been in Rebel territory in the city, en- tered the part now held by the miners. They said there was con- siderable typhoid apparently due to the well water and the necessity of using sewers as protection against bombardments in the early days before caves and cellars were dug.
 As they take houses, the miners inspect cellars, permitting women and children to leave but taking the men for questioning, since most oi the men are considered to have aid ed the Insurgents.

Darien, Conn. oct. 14-(UP)- Jewels valued at $2O00 and report ed missing from the summer home of Mrs. R. H. Hoskins, Park Ave, New York, were sought here today by police who linked their disap- pearance with a $35O0 theft at the home of Mrs. Louis Nohl Pembroke Sept. 18.
 Mrs. HoskinS said she missed the gems when she returned recently to New York and insurance inveS- tigators were notified. Authorities believed the robberies may have been committed by the same per- sons.
