It was the second time the night clerk had been held up. In the previous holdup five years ago, all guests were peacefully sleeping while the bandits rifled the cash drawer.
Wilbur Shaw Is Back Home
Wilbur Shaw, president and general manager of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, was confined to his home in suburban Indianapolis today under doctors’ orders not to receive visitors for at least two weeks. Shaw arrived by plane late yesterday from Akron,-O., where he suffered a heart attack while officiating at a Soapbox Derby last Aug. 12. An ambulance met Shaw's plane at the airport and the three-time winner of the 500-
the United States and the occu-pation-sponsored Japanese government. But with the end of the occupation in sight, he ‘said, orders have been issued calling for a co-ordinated nation-wide campaign of terrorism and subversion. “The Communists will try to agitate against the peace treaty and the security alliance between Japan and the United States,” he said. “They want to keep Japan defenseless for their own purposes. But thev are very clever not to say much about that. They stress the treaty will ‘Americanize’ Japan. That appeals to the old Fascists and they are happy to collaborate.”
Reds Issued Orders
Mr. Ohashi said Red headquarters recently issued orders to its members to “act against the occupation.” The first move, he said, “is to organize a mass movement to fight against the peace treaty and cause Japan to follow Soviet Russia.” He said the Socialists also oppose the security alliance with the United States and are against any treaty not signed by Russia and Red China. Mr. Ohashi said the Reds have lost ground recently. There now are 56,000 registered party members. All'are disciplined to believe

Met to Bring ‘Die Fledermaus’ Here Dec. 10-11
By HENRY BUTLER Times Drama Editor The Metropolitan Opera Co. will make its first Indianapolis visit with “Die Fledermaus” next Dec. 10 and 11 at Loew's Theater. Those dates today were con-
firmed by telephone to The Ind
dianapolis Times Hughes, the opera publicity director. Indianapolis will see substantially the same production that
by James company’s
appeared in Indiana University
auditorium, Bloomington, last May 7, Mr. Hughes said. Lead roles will be sung by
Brenda Lewis, Virginia McWatters, Vera Bryner, Donald Dame, William Horne, John Tyers, Kenneth Schon, Howard Jarratt and the Broadway comedian Jack Gilford, who won fame for introducing slapstick into the staid Met. 3s ‘ Announcement of the opera company’s tour first was made in a trade publication, with Indianapolis originally set for Jan. 17, 18 and 19.
New dates only recently were worked out with the New York office of Loew's, Inc., Mr, Hughes said. “Evidently local managers haven't been informed of the changes yet,” he added. The Met's “Fledermaus,” possibly the outstanding success thus far in manager . Rudolf Bing's career with the company, has been widely acclaimed as having taken stuffiness out of and put Broadway into the realm of opera.

+ $5000 Taken At Abels Company
Burglars battered open huge safes in two auto agencies on N. Meridian St. over
the week-end and got away
with between $9000 and $10,000 in cash. ® ; At Hickman Oldsmobile, Ine. three yeggs tied up the night watchman. One stood guard over him four hours while the others looted the 7-foot tall safe of cash estimated by company officials at between $3000 and $4000. The Hickman firm is at 1510 N. Meridian St. —. Burglars, possibly the same ones, got $5000 from the second safe, at the Abels Auto Co., 1030 N. Meridian St.,, according to Samuel Abels, firm president. The watchman who was tied _ at the Hickman agency was Morris W. Chisholm, 59, of 2339 N. Alabama St. The burglar trio ~— bound him with three neckties taken from the agency's dressing room and some rags, and covered his mouth with adhesive tape. They forced him to lie on the floor of the service manager's office four hours.
One Was Polite
One, a polite little bandit who was solicitous: for his victim's comfort, stayed with Mr. Chisholm from 9:15 last night until about 1:30 a. m., the time-it took to crack the safe. The small burglar kept a mask on the entire time. It took Mr. Chisholm more than 30 minutes to free himself and phone police and company officials. At both auto firms, the bur glars tried first to open the safes #ith mobile acetelyne torches they found in the agencies’ body shops. But they apparently didn’t know how to use them. Both safes were battered open. Safe a Total Loss H. H. Hinchman, vice president and general manager of the Hickman firm, said his safe was a total loss and it might. cost as much as $2000 to replace it. The yeggs smashed both outer doors and the interior door. A tear gas bomb inside the safe failed to go off. Besides taking $1000 in cash, the burglars tore up checks in an undetermined amount and threw them in a toilet, Mr. Hinchman said. : However, at the Abels agency, checks worth $25,000 were unmolested except for a few thrown on the floor. Also undisturbed was a small safe next to the smashed one. Forced Elevator Door Mr. Abels said his large safe also was beyond repair. He said he thought it might cost $400 or $500 to replace. The burglars got into the building by forcing an elevator door. The burglars broke opén a cigaret machine at the Hickman agency and took all the money in the machine. At the Abels firm, they smashed open candy, Coca-Cola and cigaret machines, took all the money in them and some merchandise. Mr. Chisholm, the watchman ‘at the Hickman. agency the last
