Bank Robbers Visited Gary Friday Noon.

Four robbers held up the State Bank at Gary Friday noon and after binding and gagging the cashier, Herman Uecker, and thrusting his head into a sack, they looted the cash drawer. Two hundred dollars was taken, the bandits not taking time to enter the vault. A posse of Gary police and citizens scoured the counery, but no trace of the thieves was found. *
