Man Has a Visit
from Stickup Man
Manager of Bank at Long Beach,
California, Saves Day by His
Cool Headedness.
William Tee-garden, branch man
ager of the Citizens State bank at
Long Beach, Cal., was the intended
victim of a bank robber recently
when Byron Anderson, a former chief
of police, is said to have pushed a
threat note demanding $2,000 thru
a bank window to Mr. Teegarden,
informing him that two men outside
would bomb the place if the demand
was not compiled with. Manager Tee
garden is said to have told the hold
up man that he would have to go
to the vault for it. Anderson then
said, "Don't do that," and told a
wierd tale of having been given the
note by two men who held him up
outside and forced him to deliver the
note to Mr. Teegarden. On the
strength of his story Teegarden help
ed the man to make an escape by a
side door, and then called police
headquarters and informed them of
the case. While the officers were
listening to the manager's story, An
derson waked into the front door
of the bank and was at once placed
under arrest. When fired with ques
tions at the police station, Anderson
broke down before the barrage, re
pudiating his former statement of
being forced to hold up the Citizens
State bank and confessed that he
had staged the job by himself.
Upon visiting his flat detectives
paper on which the threat note was
paper on when the threat note was
written, and the pad from which the
sheet was torn. On a statement con
cerning the alleged kidnaping, detec
tives found the writing compared
with the note, and that the word
business was spelled "buisness" in
both cases. Confronted with this evi
dence, the ex-police chief confessed
to the solo hold-up attempt. Detec
tives in a statement gaid that Ander
son, had been dismissed from the Tor
rence police force when he had been
found 'guilty of extortion, and was
sent to San Quentin. He was later
paroled and his parole was to expire
June 7th of this year. It was also
learned that in the last six months
Anderson has robbed three banks.
Leroy Stohlman
Wins Action for
$5,000 Damages
Doctor Who Left Patient to Others
Held Liable for Damages Un
der Existing Law.
While highly complimenting Dr.
B. B. Davis on his skill as a surgeon
and his standing in the profession
and holding that the question involv
ed did not go to his qualifications,
the supreme court Wednesday up
held the jury verdict of $5,000 se
cured against him in Lancaster coun
ty on complaint of Leroy Stohlman,
former Louisville young man. The
latter was a patient who had to be
operated on for infected thigh and
ankle.
Shortly after Dr. Davis operated
on mm nis own neaitn Droke down
and he turned the patient over to his
son, wno had Deen in practice tnree
or four years. The doctor was away
recuperating for several months.
Later Dr. Lord was called in. Stohl
man says he has an immovable foot
and a shortened ankle, and blamed
it on Dr. Davis abandonment of the
case, without notice to him.
The supreme court says the law
is that a physician or surgeon who
leaves or abandons his patient in a
critical stage of disease, without rea
sonable notice to enable the patient
to secure another medical attendant,
when the giving of such notice is
reasonably possible, is guilty of culp
able dereliction of duty and, if dam
ages are occasioned thereby, is liable
therefor.
