Last Saturday around nine pm two young men rang the doorbell at 53 Locust Ave. Mrs Christine Roche told them her husband was not home. One man burst inside and struck her with a revolver butt, then dragged her back and demanded cash. She said about nine dollars was in the house and was taken. The robbers climbed toward the upper floor as the tale continued.
The trio arrested for a February 6 break at Anderson's house faced a continued hearing to February 21 with bonds set at 2500. George Kayser, alias George Gibson, alias George Ryan, has a long record across New York and New Jersey. Turner led the initial search through a door, Larkin followed, as records for Diamond and Conry are reviewed ahead of court.
Winthrop High led until within two minutes but Watertown edged ahead 17 to 16. George Chamberlain scored repeatedly for Watertown while Bill Russell paced Winthrop with key baskets and late pressure, ending in a dramatic finish at the High School Gym with 100 spectators watching ardently.
The Winthrop Pageant Association held a meeting in the High School Hall amid a snowstorm. Col. J. F. Howell praised Army Relief efforts and urged funds be shared with Red Cross and Military Hospital Society. The group approved an advertising plan and voted to stage the production “America First” on July 4 and 5, with a drive for new members to join.
