Roy Kelly, the 18-year-old youth,

the disgraceful and unlawful raid
last summer on the Brown flats,

Kelly, also were sentenced for the
same length of time on the same
charge.
The young men were arrested on
orders of Police Eberstein "to bring
in that crowd from the Edwards" by
Detectives Danbaum and Graham.
"We just brought them tn because
they are a no-good bunch of vags,"
declared the arresting officers.
Kelly, who says he is working for
William Sulley, 2118 Capitol ave

alleged "frameup" on the Brown

buked severely by Municipal Judge
George Holmes for their illegal and

police department. He walked, the
the streets at his own free will and
laughed at the detectives who were
looking for him. ' Finally, Kelly
gave himself up and paid a fine of
$15 pursuant to a conference held
between a relative of Kelly and

Burglars, have , extended "their
operations to daylight activities, ac
cording to police report. With the
early closing time of retail stores
due to the recent ruling of the local
fuel administrator, thieves have bev
gun their rampages before dark.
Shortly nfter T. H. Bantin, 2308

through a rear window and feasted
up on pies and cakes. Tobacco and
candy were also taken.
During the absence of the family
of Al Wheeler, 4244 Maple street,
Thursday afternoon, thieves ran-
sacked,the place. The thieves entered
the house through a rear window
after' smashing the glass.
A pass key was used by burglars
to gain entrance to the home of
Lewis Hansen, 7705 North Thir-,
iieth street, Thursday afternoon.
'When members of the family re
turned home Thursday night they
found the place in a topsy-turvy con
dition, Mr. Hansen said. A child's
bank was found smashed and $150
stolen.
Detectives later arrested John
Taylor. 13 years old, Twentieth and
Sprague streets, for investigation in
connection with the burglary of the
Hansen home. Young Taylor was
identified by neighbors who told po
lice they saw him leaving the Han
sen home during the afternoon. He
was turned over to juvenile authori
ties. .
