POCOMOKE GIRL
IS MOLESTED
ON STREET
Miss Louise Leitch, High School
Graduate, Has Unpleasant
Experience
OFFICERS HUNTING FOR
THE SUSPECTED PARTY

A situation arose in this city on
Monday night last which should de-
mand serious attention and devisive
action as it concerns the safety of
Young women on the streets of POGO
moke.
Miss Louise Leitch, II, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Leitch, and a
member of this years high school
graduating class, attended the movies
on the night in question. AS she was
leaving for her home, about 10:3O P.
M, some remarks were directed to-
ward her by the occupants of a car,
parked at the curb near the theatre.
Paying no attention, she proceeded
Street, by the way of Laurel. When
opposite the home of Mrs. Linton, a
car which she had noticed had been
following from the corner of Second
and Willow drew up to the curb, and
a young man, described as rather tall
and we'll built, with light hair, jump
ed from the machine, opposite her, and
asked if she knew where a certain
party lived, giving some fictitious
name.
His efforts to engage Miss Leitcb
in conversation were futile, and he,
evidently, determined on more savage
methods. He grabbed the young lady,
who Immediately resisted and scream
ed for help. Mrs. Linton heard her
cries and rushed from her home to
ascertain the cause. The assailant
thought it the better part of valor to
make his getaway and jumping into
his car, drove rapidly off.
Miss Leitch proceeded on her way
home, arriving there in a state of
much nervous excitement. She had
had the presence of mind, however, to
secure the number of the cars IL
cense tag, and also states she would
Immediately recognize the man. if
she could see him.
The case was put Immediately into
the hands of the county and state
police, who have located the car, so

far as the tag is concerned, as being
owned by Salisbury man. At this
writing, no arrests have been made,
but action is momentarily expected.
If this night prowler is apprehend-
ed and proven guilty, he should re-
ceive the full penalty Of the law. 1t
is a most deplorable condition when
the streets are made unsafe by rowd-
les such as this man proved himself,
and he should be made an example
of. 1t is to be hoped the car will be
identified by the tag, and that the
miscreant will be taught a lesson he
we'll deserves to learn.

fective, is accompanied by much in
convenience and disability on the
part of the patient.
Another method is the injection
method, which to large degree OBJ
viates the above mentioned objections
and relieves the sufferer from uncom-
Portable aftermaths.
This community is fortunate in that
it has a physician, in the person of
DR.. R. Lee Hall, who has given spec
ial study of the "injection" method,
and in 1886 attended lectures at Johns

carded by South.
 South now led the five of spades from dummy, spreading his hand on the table at the same time and saying, "The queen drops" The statement was a slip in counting. His opponents, as- serting that this was a claim for the rest of the tricks, protested to the tournament director, who re- ferred the matter to the executive committee. The committee ruled that Appleyard's statement was complete, and that he could not thereafter take the club finesse, which would have permitted him to fulfill his contract.
 The question raised was SO inn portant that it was referred to the National Laws Commission, which makes the laws of contract bridge. This body, the supreme authority on such questions, upheld the action of the committee, and hand which no doubt would have been made, was lost. The swing was just enough to eliminate the Ap- pleyard team, and qualify their opponents, who continued in the national championship contest un- til the semi-final round.
