Two automobiles recovered yes
terday from 80 feet Of water at
Scovill's dam were stolen and
driven into the dam for revenge,
police theorized today. The inves-
tigation by detectives was pro-
ceeding on that basis, as authori-
ties sought the men responsible for
the theft Of the cars and the
driving Of them into the water.
The two cars, one a 1884 Ford
coupe and the other 1886 Buick
sedan, were owned by John Creel,
local used car dealer. They were
stolen Tuesday night from a Mea-
dow street garage.
Thursday night, Motor Patrol
man william Dwyer discovered
tracks Of automobiles on an en-
bankment alongside the dam,
which Is between Harpers Ferry
road and Hamilton park. Police
dragged the pond unsuccessfully
Thursday night and resumed yes
terday.
The coupe was taken from the
water by a tow car at 8 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. The sedan
was dragged from the water at Z
o'clock last night, after part Of
the water had been drained from
the dam.
Despite the chilly breeze and the
icy water, Clifford Lanouette Of
l0l Shefneld street, and Howard
Wright Of Highland avenue, dove
into the water and aided police
and o repair crew by attaching
tow cables to the cars.
The thieves, after taking the cars.
apparently drove ct once to the
dam and pushed the vehicles In.
