IT COSTS NO MORE TO HAVE THE BEST Phone YYA 5-1103 272 PiptstoRt, Btttoi Harbor lama i sV 11 Terrorized By Killer Residents Cower Inside Homes (Continued From Page One) fled Dowagiac police and Sgt. George Gearlds and Wilfred Bannow, auxiliary policemen, approached the Poindexter house only minutes after the shooting.

Gearlds knocked on the. door of 414 Maple street and met the muzzle of Sanders' .12 gauge shotgun. Gearlds said he ran one way and Bannow the other after Sanders had threatened their lives. RIDDLES ON FLOOR Gearlds covered the' front of the house and Bannow the rear after Mrs. Sanders ran from the building and huddled on the floor of the police car.

Sanders managed to slip through a side window and fled as Gearlds ra dioed for an ambulance and more police assistance. All seven members of the Dowagiac police force swung into action and encircled the nearby home of Sanders' brother. Henry, at 504 Walnut street, where they thought the armed man had run: Law officers from three counties eventually joined Dowagiac police to barricade the stone brick home. Loud speakers were used to persuade Sanders, to come out peacefully' after of ficers shot several shells of tear gas into the structure. With flood lights trained on the Walnut street home, police waited for almost two hours before an officer slipped inside and discovered no one.

As the search then switched to the Po-wagiac creek Police Chief Richard Wild of Dowagiac theorized that Sanders slipped back to his house at 416, Maple street and made the change of clothes. Officers at the time were, inside guarding the adjacent Poindexter home. Cass County Sheriff Robert Dool and one of his deputies then spotted Sanders and gave chase along the creek bank. As others joined in pursuits, Sanders scrambled across M-40 in front of several officers, who realized too late who it was. An extensive search was then conducted near the intersection of M-62 and M-40 in western Dowagiac, but Sanders was not seen again until his capture.

Mrs: Sanders, who had been filing for divorce, declared this morning: "My husband was insane. We tried to get him committed but everyone told us, 'wait until he does something'." Mrs. Poindexter said her brother was dishonorably discharged from the U. S. Navy.

The man Sanders killed was a disabled veteran who was living on a pension. "NO GOOD "He's always been no good and a thief," said Mrs. Poindexter of her brother. "He's a vicious made dog who'd kill us all now if he had the chance." Sanders was sentenced to serve four years in prison in 1947 kf-ter he was convicted of grand larceny- and breaking and- en tering.

I am retired on pension, but need more income. Have $40,000 in 4 per cent Treasury certificates, $14,000 In savings and will have about $9,000 in commercial bank account. How can we in-crease our income, but not through the stock market? A. It seems to me, such a situation cries for an annuity. Ai your age you can get a return of about 8 per cent on the funds you put into an annuity.

That would be for a contract covering the lives of both of you. In other words, about $15,000 put into an annuity would bring you about $100 a month for life; $30,000 would add $200 a month to your income. If you fear the stock market, you might put some -of your funds into the new Treasury 5s which are obtainable at prices t. yield nearly 5 per cent. (Mr.
