COPPER PINCHES BANDIT SUSPECT IN WILD CHASE Policeman Commandeers Cab to Pursue Man in Stolen Auto. Captured after a downtown chase In rush hour traffic early Thursday night, Joe Kostkowski, 40, said by police to be a Chicago gunman, was being questioned today by detectives. Kostkowski was caught by traffic policeman Joe Wilson, who gave chase to a speeding automobile stolen from William Gorman, 3812 East New York street. A second bandit escaped as vvnson forced the stolen car to the curb at Vermont'and Illinois street. Gorman, the bandits’ victim, said he had stopped his car near the Wulsin building on East Ohio street to w r ait for his wife, when the bandits approached. Pushed From Auto “You’re pinched,” one of the men told Gorman. Gorman said Kostkowski entered the rear seat of his sedan with a revolver drawn, while the second bandit entered the front seat, and told Gorman to drive to an alley back of city hall. There, Gorman said, the bandits pushed him from the car. At Alabama and Market streets, the bandits were forced to halt the car at a traffic sign. Gorman followed on foot, shouting “stop that car.” Wilson, stationed at the corner, commandeered a taxi and gave chase.

Disregarding traffic signs, the bandits sped to Vermont and Illnois streets where one man leaped from the stolen car and escaped between two buildings. Kostkowski was nabbed by Wilson at the wheel of the car. Kostkowski was carrying a revolver. Fires at Rear Tires An alleged automobile thief who fled from a wrecked car was captured Thursday night, amid police bullets. John Mathews, 17, Negro, of 839 Colton street, the alleged thief, was the driver of an automobile which sped past a police squad Thursday night at Bright and New York streets. Sergeant Arthur Hueber, squad leader, punctured the two rear tires on the fleeing car with bullets, forcing it to the curb. Mathews denied knowing the identity of his two companions, who escaped. A 15-year-old boy was nabbed by police stationed near a stolen car in a woods east of Arlington avenue near Beechwood avenue Thursday night. Police were hiding in the car when the youth, creeping through tall weeds with a pair of license plates under his arm, approached the car. He admitted stealing the plates from the garage of C. E. Riley, 121 Spencer avenue, and later confessed the theft of four other cars "to ride around in,” police said.

Midgets Booked

Announcement comes from A. J. Kalberer, manager of the Lyric, local RKO vaudeville theater, that he has booked for the week of October 24, one of the outstanding acts now on tour of the RKO vaude‘■'■ille theaters. This attraction is Singer’s Midgets, a troupe of tiny entertainers which, were regular yearly events at Keith’s. Today they are a complete show in themselves, presenting as they go from forty-five to sixty minutes of stage features alone. However, in Indianapolis this attraction will be but one act on the usual six-act stage show at the Lyric. There are said to be some thirty tiny men and women in the act of Singer’s Midgets, together with a miniature menagerie of animals, including three jumbo elephants, five midget ponies, reindeers, camels, ducks and pigeons. Three regulation sized railroad cars are required to transport this troupe from town to town. The thirty midget entertainers include singers, dancers, magicians, acrobats, comedians and a midget jazz band. An elaborate stage production is also carried by the troupe. It is further announced that several changes are required to be made on the Lyric stage in order to enable the complete production to be presented. Workmen are to start this week enlarging the stage for the coming of Singer’s Midgets. Buyers of household goods are quickly found with a Times Want Ad. Phone Ri. 5551.—Adv.
