CASHIER STOPS HOLDUP EFFORT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) ! I • ••••*«•••••••*»•«• • • • A posse of farmers and police abandoned a search for the three , men In a woods near here last night. Two of the bandits tied into the woods when a stolen taxi cab L In which they attempted to escape' , developed a Hut tire about a mile!, from Metamora. The fourth man was waiting in another car on the , edge of town. He fled when he discovered that the holdup had been unsuccessful. Carter was the only one to enter ' the bank. Two of the others re- . mained outside In the stolen cab As the young bandit entered with a drawn gup, la’onard tired. The banker hud b**n cleaning his own weapon and did not wait for any , commands. He had been held up twice before. Carter fired at the same time I, but tlie bullet went wild and he fell 1i to the floor with a wound In his 11 upper arm. Leonard fired a sec- ■, ond time just before the bandit col ‘ lapsed. The bullet narrowly missed Carter’s head. ’ Leonard manacled his prisoner, and held him until Sheriff George > Pulskamp arrived from Brookville. . Carter was taken to the county I ! jail. The cashier was involved in another gunfight with bank bandits , a year ago. He tired a shot which struck the fleeing holdup car and damaged it so that the bandits later were caught at Connersville. , o AGREEMENT IS RECEIVED HERE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) tionwide plan to raise wages, create ' mployment and thus’increase pur- j chasing power and restore business.
