Bandits Strip And Rob IS Women
 In Beauty Parlor

DALLAS, tR - A couple of ban dits forced some 20 women to strip, pistol-whipped one and re- duced the take at a reducing salon by $50 Monday night.
 Tt was awful" complained manager Esther Ragland.
 She said the young pair came in just before closing time while two women attendants and an es- timated 18 clients were present.
 Mrs. Ragland said one of the men told us this was a holdup and started pushing everybody toward the back of the studio"
 'He hit one girl in the face with his pistol It laid her cheek wide open She CMrs. Patsy Flickert, 23, an attendant made some wisecrack when he showed her."
 She said the gunman, snarling death threats, forced the women into steam room, shut the door and stood outside. He ordered everyone to disrobe and throw out the clothing.
 He then ordered Mrs. Ragland, still dressed, to the front office and made her hand over all the money.
 "Then he marched me back to the steam sroom, opened the door and showed me inside. He came right in with me and made me take off my clothes"
 Tt was terrible All the ladies were sitting on the benches with out stitch on. Everyone of them was scared to death"
 He told us he'd kill the first woman who opened the door. He told us to stay inside IS minutes"
 We did"
 She said they came out, re- trieved their clothes and one woman ran across the street to call police.
 Mrs. Ragland said the second bandit stood around with pistol in his hand, but said little.

Jimmy kreuger
Accident Victim
Broke Both Legs
Five Months Ago
By Stephen r. Brkich
- English Editor -

PITTSBURGH - Calvin
and Bernice Kreuger of York
vile, Ohio, have their par
entail heartaches these days.
They must look on as their
son Jimmy, who will be II
years old on Saturday, Dec.
20, fights day in and day out
to regain the use of his legs.
Jimmy, a member of jun
ior Order Nest 21O, York
vile, was to break both legs
this past summer while
playing with other children
in a local park. That was
more than (5) months ago.
He has since been unable to
regain the use of either leg.
A sad state of affairs.
Especially during this time
of the year, when so many
youngsters are counting the
hours until Christmas and
wondering what Old st. Nick
will bring Dec. Is.
What To Do About IT.
Calvin and Bernice Kreuger
are parents of extremely mod
est means.
Both would give their right
arm to see Jimmy scamper-
ing around their home once
again. But that is beyond
their giving.
1t has cost them a great
deal to give their son the
medical attention he has
needed these past five
months. 1t will probably
cost them q great deal moro
before Jimmy can regain
the use of his legs.
