DOZEN CONNECTS
STILL AT LARGE
Seven Others Captured
After State Penitentiary
Break Saturday

Parchman, Miss, Feb. 15-(UP)---
Twelve armed convictS were still at
large today after authorities had
captured seven Of the 10 who es-
capped from the state penitenttary
early Saturday.
Search for the IL men spread
from north Mississippi to the hills
of Alabama, and officers guarded
bridges and state line in belief the
fugitives were travelling singly and
in pairs. The seven captured put
up no fight.
Prison Superintendent M. P. Love
pointed out, however, that those
still at large included several hfers
who probably would not be taken
without fight. Most of those cap
tured SO far were serving short
terms. he added.
Included among the lifers )still
sought was James T. Tillotson. OF
Boston, reputed assachusetts gang
leader, sentenced for bank and
highway robbery.
The manhunt shifted to alabama
last night when i've conviets were
reported cornered at Vina. near Red
Bay, Ala. These men were believed
to be those who spread q wave OF
terrorism across north Mississippi
Saturday night which included sew

Expectations of various local en-

announcement t=om Mrs. Mary
Dewey, Waterbury area director for

that the order will apply TO all en-

Dewey, who attneded q regional

The effect Of the decision will
reach banks, Nstores, restaurants,

all other employment where the
weekly schedule has been under AZ

workers who served less than AZ
hours might be allowed to AL In the
remainder Of the requirement by
taking part-time jobs, but this pos
