Red Hoired Girl Robs Children

{ NEW YORK, Aug. 2 (U. P)— There's a pretty red-haired woman in Brooklyn who has a racket as easy as taking money from children. In fact, that's what she does. Ten detectives and five policemen were assigned to her trail today because of numerous come | plaints. She works this way: She selects a street near a utility office. Then she waits until some child comes along to pay a bill. She usually can tell because the child, having no purse, has

She strikes up a conversation, remarks on the coincidence that they are both going to the utility office and gives the child a paper bag in which to put the bill and | money so they won't get lost. A little sleight-of-hand switch of bags and the lady is gone. Tha child doesn't discover the deception until he tries to pay the bill.
