“Phony” Doctors Get $195 For Work With “Radium.”, Two families residing in the neighborhood of Seafiekl were swindled out of $195 by four men representing themselves to be doctors and passing through the country. The swindlers claimed they had $3,500 worth of radium with which they were enabled to cure any disease. Two of the men remained in the auto and two went to the house to administer the treatment. A stop was made at the home of Mrs. Agnes Salla, a sufferer from asthma, and after she had paid them SIOO, the radium treatment was administered to her. Her son, Elmer Salla, who was also ailing, but was not considered by the ’‘doctors” to be in as serious a condition as the mother, was given a treatment for $32.50. Mr. H. Dolick, Who has trouble with her eyes; gave the “doctors” a check for $62.50 after they had promised to remove the “scum” from her eyes. The check was later cashed at the Wolcott bank. After this neat little sum was picked up the four men disappeared completely and no means of identification was left by them. Their victims soon became aware of the fact that they had been swindled, but could not give a description sufficient to apprehend the fugitives, who up „to this time are still at large.
