THUG REPELLED BY REP. KNAPP
Legislator Grabs Would-Be Attacker, Who Runs Away.
Rep. James Knapp (R. Hagerstown) frustrated an attempted holdup yesterday while returning to Indianapolis from his home. Mr. Knapp told police he had
stopped his auto at a traffic signal at Emerson Ave. and Washington St. when a man jumped on the running board and told him to “open up and keep on driving.” Instead of obeying the command, the legislator reached through the window, grabbed the man’s arm and tried to capture him. The man broke loose, however, and fled. He left behind a cotton glove and his hat, which Mr. Knapp turned over to authorities.

A grocery store at 2726 E. New York St. was held up last night and robbed of $45. Alfred Baun, 22, of 2610 E. 11th St. the manager, said a man about 30, armed with a revoler, committed the robbery.

By United Press MONROE, Mich., Jan. 21.—Alcida (Frenchy) Benoit, accused of-shoot-ing to death State Trooper Richard Hammond, pleaded not guilty today when arraigned in Municipal Court on g charge of first-degree murder. The 24-year-old paroled convict, captured last night 15 hours after the body of the Trooper was found handcuffed to a rural mailbox, waived preliminary examination before Judge John Faucher, who ordered him held without bond for Circuit Court trial next month. Benoit was escorted to court by heavily armed officers, guarding him from an angered crowd aroused by the brutal slaying of Hammond. Federal agents, who entered .the case on information that Benoit had violated the Lindbergh Kidnap Law, did not plan immediate action.
After an all-doy search by 250 state troopers fron Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, Aigida (Frenchy) Benoit, 22, Ionij, Mich., robber and gunman (le{;. above), was a prisoner today. He pleaded not guilty today to a ¢harge of having kidnaped State “atrolman Rich-
