Cool Stenographer Saves Bank Money in Cleveland
Miss Mary Probala, 28, acted quickly during a Lorain Street Bank robbery to save cash. After a prior raid by the Bird brothers last February, she sheltered in a washroom as three robbers entered again, then locked the main vault and tellers’ safes, leaving only $4,000 on the counter while the time-locked vault thwarted fuller theft. The alarm installed after the first holdup aided responders. Probala remained calm, aiding the bank and managers Fatph Reitsman and security despite the danger.
