 Drove Around With Him The two men drove around, with him in the car, for more than two hours, he said, and finally put him out of the car in Oxford. During the ride, he said, they changed the markers on the car. After he was put ont of the car, Voisin said, he had to walk a considerable distance be- fore he reached a telephone. He called his employer, who brought him back to Waterbury.
 The hold-up men, Voisin said, were between 25 and 30 years old. He furnished police with sketchy descriptions of the pair.
 Cassidy Story
 The elderly Cassidy told police that he was walking on South Main street, just below Grand street when two young men grabbed his arms and pulled him into an alley way. AS they attempted to go through his pockets, he battled the pair, he said, and managed to knock down one of them. The two young men became frightened, he said, and fled.

barely recovered from a serious operation, it was 8 remarkable performance.
 Gandhi lasted q days again in 1883 to protest British control in India, and in 1929 Jatindranath, as one of 16 persons arrested in the Lahore conspiracy, died in prison after a hunger strike of 61 days.
 No such motive, however, im- pelled Herr Jolly of Germany, who set up an exhibition" fasting in Berlin in 1926. Jolly moved into glass cage, charged 12 cents for a look and survived A days on 5000 cigarets and 400 bottles of seltzer water. At the end, 500 girls proposed and Jolly collected $20,000 in admissions.
 Fasts for Pardon
 Cecily de Rygeway, a Noting ham Housewife, is generally credited with the first hungry strike. Faced with a quick trial and death for the murder of her husband in the 14th century, and lacking an adequate defense, she devised the new weapon. After 40 days fasting she won a full pardon from King Edward III.
 Centuries later Mrs. Enmeline Pankhurst and her daughters re- sorted occasionally to fasting to win women's rights in England.
 Women have undertaken many strange fastings. A Mrs. Vossiler of Newark, N. J., lasted 19 days to cure tuberculosis. Others have abstained from food to cure ap- pendicitis and Bright's disease. In 1925 Mrs. Lillian Baldwin of Los Angeles stepped on the scales after 50 days fasting to reduce weight. The indicator said 180 DolIndS and

such as camps, hotels. etc. The
interest is $40 percent. Title one
