A woman tavern proprietor, un
injured when a would-be robber
fired at her, thought the revolver
was loaded with blanks.
When police pointed to a hole
In her ' dress at knee level and
found the spent slug in an empty
beer keg, she became nystericai
and was taken to a hospital for
treatment of shock.
Brinton .Wallace McNeil, 20, a
transient, was . jailed as the as
sailant. He was booked . on
charges of attempted assault and
robbery while armed, assault
with intent to kill and carrying
a concealed weapon.
The proprietor, Mrs. Vetha M.
Howe, told police this story:
While she was drawing a beer
for the only customer In her
tavern at 12:20 a. m. today, he
pulled out a revolver and de
manded the tlll's cash. She
reached for the till and with the
other hand waved to a passing
car. She told the robber it was
the night watchman who was
coming to pick her up. The man
looked out tne window and Mrs
Howe grabbed a club from under
the counter and hit him on the
head.
The blow had no apparent ef
fect and the man whirled and
fired at point-blank range. He
then ran out the door and fired
again.
She called police and a prowl
car picked up McNeil near by.
When a revolver taken from him
was found to be loaded with live
ammunition, two cartridges of
which had been fired, police
looked for more evidence.
That was when Mrs. Howe be
came hysterical.

added that special truckloads of

A great amount of canned

Appreciation for the patience
and consideration of the general
public during the strike period
was expressed by Carlson.
