POLICE CAPTURE
ARMY PRISONERS
Three Escaped Soldiers
Nabbed at GunpOint Near
Camp Edwards

Camp Edwards, Mass, Jan. 20 -
(UP)-Three soldier prisoners who
escaped from Camp Edwards out
post yesterday after slugging theil
guard were recaptured by military
police at gunpoint today while
trudging along railroad tracks In
a snowstorm about 20 miles west OF
here.
The capture took place in the
lonely, wooded fremont section OF
West Warehanl, near the border OF
South Middleboro. :
There was no immediate eXplana-
ton Of how the fugitives had made
their way so far inland, since both
Bourne and Sycamore bridges span
ming the Cape Cod canal are under
heavy military guard.
State police said the escaped pri-
soners, Pvt. Harry A. Bigiiin, 81, Of
Union. N. j.: Pvt. John w. Shoe
maker, 20, of Los Angeles, and Pvt.
James B. Gard, "a, Of Ellsworth, Me-,
offered no resistance.
The capture was made by Corp.
Joseph Foley of LawrOnce and q
fellow military policeman who had
trailed the rtio for several miles
along the Old Colony branch tracks
Of the New Haven Railroad.
Wareham police reported that the
fugitives first we're sighted by
resident of that town living near
the railroad tracks. The authorities
t'slephoned Camp Edwards but
meanwhile the two military police
men happened along and were told
by q crossing tender that three men
resembling the fugitives' descrip-
tons had just passed. The pair eff
fected the capture before aid ar
rived from the camp.
The recaptured trio were taken
in an army car to the office Of Maj.
Thomas McCabe, Provost-Marshal,
for questioning.
The soldiers, who had been ar
rested for being A. w. o. L., were
with q working detail at a motor
pool on the outskirts Of the camp
yesterday when they slugged their
guard, Pvt. Anthony A. Sandanato
Of Niagara Falls, N. Y. The army
truck in which they escaped later
was found abandoned near the OUT
