Terror Bandits
Still Roam San
Francisco 'Beat'
KAN PHANCIHt'O, Oct. U. (AP)
As though in a gesture of con
tempt for authority, the "Terror
Pundits" who have slain four men
since Saturday, robbed another
man last night while more than
I mm armed men patroled the
streets to prevent n renewal of the
gunmen'H banditry.
The victim was Monroe Moore,
a hotine paint oil and decorator, who
was lured from his home hy a tele
phone call to u false address. As
lie walked along the Hide walk a
large car came to an abrupt stop
beside him, and two young in eh
with drawn pistols robbed him of
-aii while a third remained tit the
wheel fif the luaehiuo.
, Police today were without a def
inite clue as to the Identity of the
gunmen. Nearly 3'H suspects were
arrested yesterday und hist night
hut all hut three were released.
