YOUNG BANDIT 1
PLEADS GUILTY,
GETS 10 YEARS
Alleged Companions to Be
Arraigned in City
Court Today.
Three members of an alleged
bandit gang charged with fourteen
robberies In Indianapolis were to
be arraigned in municipal court to
day.
Another alleged member of the
gang, William Allen Shaw, 19-year
old Indianapolis youth, was sen
tenced to serve ten years in the In
diana state reformatory Tuesday
when he pleaded guilty to auto
banditry in Delaware circuit court,
Munele.
Richard Turner, 21, and his
father, James Turner, 51, of 2039
Ludlow avenue, and Paul Parker. 21,
of 1233 East Sixteenth street, were
to be arraigned here today.
Confession Is Claimed
Shaw’s arraignment follow'ed a
purported confession to police that
he had taken part in the holdup
Friday night of a barbecue stand
near Muncie. He also is alleged to
have confessed that he was one of
the gang which attempted to rob
the Monticello find) Thread Mill,
June 4, when Fred Fisher, superin
tendent was wounded.
In his alleged confession, Shaw
said that the Monticello robbery at
tempt was one of a number planned
by the gang and “laid out’’ in a
draft made by a prisoner in the
Indiana state prison.
The draft, in the form of a map,
charted routes and approaches to
concerns and instituitons in Monti
cello "that would be easy to take.”
The map, he is alleged to have told
police, was brought out of prison by
a paroled convict.
Implicates City Man
He implicated Noble Claycomb, 30,
of 1223 North State avenue, also
charged with being a member of the
gang. In the Monticello robbery he
told police that he had his revolver
“under Fisher’s chin” when at
tempting to rob the mill. “But I
didn't want to shoot any one, so I let
loose of the gun and ran,” he is
alleged to have said.
He charged Claycomb with firing
the shot which struck Fisher in the
leg, police assert.
Shaw said that he turned bandit
to get money to marry an Indian
apolis girl.
“I was in five jobs,” police quoted
him, “and out of the whole moss I
got only SBS. Add to that this prison
sentence and—well, it doesn't pay.”
Bride with Bandit Gang
Shaw, Claycomb and Parker all
were arrested at Shaw’s apartment
in Muncie, Saturday, a few hours
after the robbery of the Bide-a-Wee
inn, where S7O was taken. Shaw’s
bride of a few weeks was with the
alleged bandit gang when they were
arrested.
She told the police that she didn't
know where her husband was get
ting his funds, but thought money
was being sent by his mother.
James Turner, one of the prison
ers to be arraigned today, is charged
with being implicated in plans for
the robberies but, according to po
lice, is not believed to have partici
pated in any.
