Linn today urged Gary residents to telephone the police de-! partment when they expect to be! away from home for a few days, or| even for several hours for a dinner| and movie, “If people will do this we will see! that their homes are particularly watched during their absence,”| Chief Linn said. “Co-operation of! the public would make better pro-| tection against house burglaries possible. “It doesn’t matter if the family is only going out for a few hours’ visit or to a theater. Many break-ins occur during such intervals that might be prevented if our patrols were forewarned.”
