WOMEN MOVE TO SAVE CITY PLAYPROGRAM Public Appeal Is Made for Support of Recreation Work in Parks. A public appeal for support of the recreational work of the park board and request that a woman be continue don the park board was made today by a group of women active in the W. C. T. U., Indianapolis Council of Women, Catholic Women’s Association, Women’s Department Club, Y, W. C. A.. Federation of Civic Clubs and Federation of Parent-Teacher Association. The statement was occasioned by reports that the present city administration will abandon the recreation department work, it was said. “We thoroughly indorse a plan for bot hsummer and winter recreation in Indianapolis,” said the statement. Favor Recreation Work “We heartily approve of the bill passed by the last Legislature which increased the bond issue, thus providing for a much needed development of the recreational service. “We favor the building of swimming pools and community houses in the sections of the city where they are most needed, for we realize that the indoor recreation work, which can only be promoted through the community house, is just as important as the outdo* playground in the summertime, provided it is supervised properly by persons who are qualified morally and who have had training and experience in social service work. And we feel sure that the best return to the taxpayer will come through helping the boys and girls, who are the future citizens of our city, to become better and more healthful citizens. “We also urge that women be included in the membership of the board of park commissioners, for we believe that women have a better understanding of the needs of the boys and the girls.” It was signed by Mrs. C. W. Ackman, county W. C. T. u. vice president; Mrs. Reuben Miller, W. C. T. U. leader; Pearl M. Randall, Federation of Community Civic Clubs;

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BANDIT CAUGHT IN AYRES ‘RAID 1 DENIED PAROLE Touhey, Only Gang Member Captured, Must Stay in Prison. Another year must elapse without a parole for Thomas Toughy, 32, the only one of five gangsters captured in the SIB,OOO robbery attempt of the L. S. Ayres & Cos. store in June, 1924. Touhy was sentenced Dec. 11.1924, to from two to fourteen years for his part in the affair. The bandits abandoned their loot. Last year during the Christmas holidays his petition for parole was turned down by the trustees of Indiana State Prison and it met the same fate this year, according to Michael E. Foley, member of the board. Leisurely Gather Loot The gangsters forced entrance to the store about 10 p. m. and took their time about gathering up the SIB,OOO loot of silks and other merchandise. They forced the night watchman to punch the A. D. T. clock on schedule and bound and gagged employes in the bakery and other departments employing night workers. Three safes were blown. As the loot was carried to a rear door, Touhy remained in a machine ready to transport it. One of the store employes reached a telephone about 5 p. m., and called police. Upon their arrival, the four men remaining in the store fled to the roof by elevator and escaped by leaping to a roof of a neighboring building. Caught in Sawdust Bin Toughy fled with a policeman in pursuit and was captured in a sawdust bin in a yard in Maryland St., between Illinois St. and Capitol Ave. The gangsters were Chicago trained and have exerted all pressure possible to win release for their accomplice. However, he will remain in prison for some time yet, despite the fact that his minimum sentence has been served, Foley said.
