Women The career of Philadelphia's "lonely hearts" bandit, who kept police and shopkeepers in an uproar here for more than six months, ended yesterday in Elizabeth, N. J. on the heels of a $1.23 holdup. The handsome, soft-spoken robber, who by his own count pulled 31 "jobs" in this city alone, surrendered meekly to pursuing police in downtown Elizabeth when his getaway car was blocked by a backing truck at the end of a 75-mile-an-hour chase from his last holdup in Rahway. ADMITS BANDIT ROLE Soon after his capture, the suspect admitted to Elizabeth and Philadelphia police that he was the man whose activities had kept plain-clothes men here busy guarding small shops, checking Picture on Page 3 subways, and searching for a man cf his description, i He was identified as Richard J.

1 Freggans, 26, of 181 Neptune Jersey City, N. a former marine, who was on terminal leave 1 at Philadelphia Naval Hospital during the time of his one-man crime wave. He is married and has a 6-year-old daughter. HELD WITHOUT BAIL The suspect, arraigned last night before Magistrate William Heim in Rahway, refused counsel and waived a formal hearing as he was held without bail for the Union county grand jury on a charge of armed robbery. While Philadelphia authorities have lodged detainers against him, this city may have to wait to bring Freggans to trial until after charges against him have been disposed of in both New Jersey and New York.

FACES OTHER CHARGES Sgt. Albert Connor, of the Robbery Squad here, who went to Elizabeth with Detective Vincent Ileeney upon learning that a suspect believed to be the "lonely Detectives were confronted with mystery even as to the child's identity, since no youngster of the victim's age between 4 and 6 has been reported missing in this area since the first of the year DEAD 2 OR 3 DAYS Examination of the body indicated death had occurred two or three days ago. The boy, described by police as "a very nice looking child." was slender and thin-faced and weighed between 35 and 40 pounds. He was blue-eyed, and his dark brown hair had been crudely cut in crew style. The police repeatedly broadcast a description of the boy over their radio network in the hope that someone would be able to give some information that would lead to his identity.

DEFLNITLLY HOMICIDE Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Joseph W. Spelman reported last night after conducting an autopsy that the boy's death "is definitely due to homicide, and that is all I can say at this time." He said there were bruises all over the body, particularly on the head, le2S and arms Capt. David II.

Footprints Found on Creek Bank Mounting evidence convinc ed police last night that little last night in the grim hunt for the blonde, blue-eyed child, who had been looking forward to her fourth birthday party today, included: Discovery that a man, a girl of about Alary Jane's size and a small dog had trudged along the muddy west bank of swift- running Big Timber Creek nearby Deptford township. A belated report that a neighbor's small dog has been missing since the time of Mary Jane's disappearance.

Announcement that Investigators had shaken a suspect's alibi. A report that a child answering Mary Jane's description was seen late Monday morning in the company of tipsy motorist a few blocks from her home. Footprints of the oddly assorted' trio were discovered by two volunteers late yesterday afternoon after they broke away from the main body of nearly 500 searchers and crossed to the east side of the New Jersey Turnpike to scour a patch of isolated woods on a hunch. The two men, James Campbell, but found no other clues in the area. They reported their find embankment a short distance from Woodbury rd.

last evening Bellmawr Police Chief Edward Garrity. Meanwhile it was learned that the small black-and-white spaniel- pup, with which Mary Jane was playing when last seen Monday, also was missing. The belated information added significance to the finding of the footprints, according to investigators. It was believed originally that the little dog trotted home some time after the search for the girl got under way. Its owner, Mrs.

Mary Fraietta, of 423 2d Bellmawr, said she last saw the child and the four-month-old spaniel in her yard at about 10:30 A. M. Monday. She said she fed the animal, nodded to Mary Jane and returned to the house.

U.

S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge hoped to put the measure before the Assembly tomorrow morning. Still to be worked out was the sponsorship of the measure, but informed sources said India, Canada, Brazil and Colom bia were expected to join the U. S. in moving it before the 80-nation Assembly.

THREAT OF SANCTIONS Diplomats were working to night on a clause which would carry a threat of sanctions against Israel if she refuses to get her troops out of Egypt. But qualified sources said the meas ure would not carry a provision for automatic sanctions. Instead, they said, it would probably de clare that the Assembly would take up the issue of disciplinary measures in event of an Israel refusal. American sources said the reso lution would represent a "middla way" between "utterly inefficient" measures that have been suggested and the stringent economic sanctions demanded by six members of the Asian-African bloc. U.

S. SEES URGENCY "We feel the matter is urgent," a top U. S. source said. "We think that as long as Israeli troops are on Egyptian soil, there is a danger of fighting, and there is no telling where that could lead." As the Assembly plunged info critical debate on the Israeli-Egyptian crisis today.

Lodge conferred with a number of delegates, including Lester B. Pear son, of Canada, and V. K. Krish na Menon, India's roving Cabinet Minister. CANADIAN COMPROMISE The U.

S. resolution is likely to include a number of ideas advanced by Pearson today. The Canadian Foreign Secretary presented what he called a constructive compromise, and drew immediate criticism from the Soviet Union and Syria, which assailed it as pro-Israel. Meanwhile Ambassador Abba Eban of Israel rushed to Washington for a new conference with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, and the Israeli Cabinet, after meeting twice in Jerusalem, cabled new' instructions to Eban reportedly giving him wide latitude in the Gaza-Aqaba talks. Alter an 80-minute parley with Dulles, Eban indicated the deadlock over the Gulf of Aqaba, if not the Gaza Strip, might Continued on Page 2, Column 3u aljr 3mtttrrr WEDNESDAY.
