Should Give ' Heed to
Great Danger to
Pedestrians

BRIDGEPORT. Nov. .. t.\P.)——-—
The State of Connecticut should
give heed to the great danger to the
humble pedestrian and provide him
with sidewalks and footways along
the main travelled highways," Cor-
oner l’helan said today in making a
tinding in a fatal automobile acci-
dent in which he held as criminally
responsible Mrs. Mary E. Fitzgerald
of Norwalk. unlicensed driver. and
her instructor. Imcr ’l‘. Sterry of
Norwalk. whose car killed 15 year
old Milrod Bergfors at Bedding last
Sunday.
The Coroner also criticized state
highway officials for their “pitlablo
ommissiou" in not affording protec-
tion to pedestrians as well as to
motorists and also fitsolaretl that the
state seemed to have given over the
control of the highways to the au-
tomobiilst.
The boy and his brother were
walking along the side of the road
on'the graveled portion and away
from the surfaced part. The Coro-
. her said that there was no Protec-
‘ tion for the boys or for anyone else
who might be walking on the gravel,
against a careless driver and. in this
instance. he said that: the boy had
no chance to 'escape when the ma-
chine did not keep to the surfticed
q-oad. .
The Coroner stated that footpaths
should be provided as a. protection
against the careless driver. In his
summing up he stated that such
eases are bound to produce “rescnt-.
ment in the public mind" and that.
as a means of restitution for lives
sacrificed, the State should make
some provision on the highways for
the protection of the pedestrian.
150 BOY SCOUTS
START FOR YALE
MARYLAND GAME
About 150 highly nethusiastic lo-
cal Boy Scouts left Franklin school
this morning at 11:30 o‘clock. to at-
tend the Yale-Maryland football
game at the Yale bowl in New Ha-
ven this afternoon as guests of the
Yale Athletic Association. The
Scouts traveled in nearly 40 automo-
biles. loaned by members of the Nor-
walk Kiwanis club. The delegation
was escorted by State Policemen
Charles Myatt and Stephen Stanton
of the Westport Barracks.
A short time prior to their de-
parture the scouts were lined up and
a list of the boys of each troop was
taken by their scoutmasters. who
will have charge ofrthem during the
afternoon. The entire degelation
will be in charge of Deputy Com-
missioner P. C. Quintet-d. who is
acting for Scout Commissioner Char-
les Diamond.
For the past few years the boys
have attended the Yale-Brown game
but this year. due to the popularity
of the Brown game. the party was
changed to the Maryland game.
The crowd will coturn home im-
mediateiy‘after the game. as soon as
every boy has been accounted for.
NEW HAVEN. Nov. 7 (AP).—

football team invaded New Haven
today for the annual battle in the
Tale Bowl.
The Yale eleven. looked up by the
Maryland coaches as one air the
strongest in the East this Year, and

THIEVES DASH
OUT OF BANK
One Caught, But Other
Gets Away With
Cash, $1,800 in Bank
Notes . .
NEW l-f. YEN. Nov. 7.—-(AF). A
rather tam daylight robbery took
place here yesterday when two men
robbed the First National bank at
Church and Crown streets. of 81.500
in bank notes. The men separated
when they left the bank. One was
arrested by a. patrolman and gave
his name as Charles Stanton and
his address as Oklahoma. and New
York. The other man. who was
carrying the money, made his os-
cape.
Two two men entered the bank to-
gether and going to a desk began
writing. A few feet away were the
tellers cages. One of the tellers left
his cage to answer a telephone call.
Edging up to the window, of the
cage. the men. with the aid of a
cane pulled out several packages of
hanknotcs, which were bundled up
to be counted and put out of circu-
lation because of their ragged con-
dition.
The men. evidently becoming
frightened. hurried away leaving be-
hind several other bundles of bank-
notes which they had drawn for-
ward. Their actions had been wit-
nessed by Henry Nodelman. a. mega-
zine deger and he notified a. patrol-
man in front of the bank. .
The patrolman. however. cotfl
not catch both of the men and cen-
tered his attention on Stanton. The
latter at police headquarters gave
his age as thirty-four. told the po-
lice that he had just come to New
Haven and that ho was on his way
to New York. He denied any part
in the affair and refused to give
any information regarding his com-
panion. He was locked up under
bonds of $5.000.
Stanton was taken back to the
bank where he was identified by
several bank employes and by No-
delman. He had no money on his
person and was carrying no w...
pen.
