EMPTY WALLET IS OBTAINED BY YOUNG ROBBERS.
Peabody, Mass.—(AP)—Two youths who held up and robbed
William Mahoney early Sunday were nothing, if not thorough. He
says they stole his wallet, which was empty, his keys and his
false teeth. Later the pair he accused, Frank Potuba and William
Cavanaugh both 20 years old, were arrested, but Mahoney’s
troubles didn’t end there. POLICE are holding his teeth for
evidence.
