Shore Road 5-1600 Cop Shot, Pal Killed By Suspicious Officer A patrolman accused of extortion was in critical condition today in Flower-5th Ave. Hospital, Manhattan, and his companion was dead after they were shot by another patrolman. The wounded patrolman, who was suspended early today, was Thomas G. Quinn, 33, of 962 233d the Bronx, attached to the Wadsworth Ave, precinct. He was hit four times, The dead man was Antonio Acosta, 37, of 82 LaSalle Manhattan.

Police said Patrolman Nicholas J. Tully, 40, of 170 E. 94th Manhattan, was on duty at 10:30 o'clock last night in front of a candy store at 111 E. 113th Manhattan, when he saw the two men come out of the store. Hearing Quinn mumble, "We're cops," Tully decided to question the two men, since Acosta appeared to Giaccone Wants Adolescent Court For Girls, Too Just as Tender as Boys, He Says, When a Girl Is Brought to Felony Court "It 1s strange that we arraign young man in Adolescents Court and have no similar court for girls," said Magistrate Francis X.

Giaccone. "I see no reason why a 16- year -old girl should be treated as a felon. She is at least as tender of feeling as a boy of that age." Magistrate Graccone made the comment during the arraignment in Felony Court of Rose Mandelino. 16, of 660 Midwood on a charge of burglary yesterday. He missed her after a younger sister, Philomena, 14, assumed all responsibility for the act charged.

The complaint against the older girl was signed by Mrs. Rebecca Weber of 562 Albany by whom Philomena was formerly employed as a domestic. She charged that on July 18, last, after she left her home for a two weeks vacation and locked it up, some one broke in a bedroom window and stole $120 in cash which she had hidden under a living room rug. Taken to the Children's Society on a charge of juvenile delinquency, of which she was later found guilty in Juvenile Court by Justice Isaac Siegel, Philomena told police that her sister Rose was on the roof of the building when she broke into the apartment. Following the theft both girls, police say, spent two weeks away from home, living in rooming houses.

In court, however, Philomena testified that her sister had nothing to do with the theft. The girls are two of a family of 13 children. Ten Congressmen Sail To View Atlantic Bases Ten Congressmen, members of a special committee of the House Military Affairs Committee, left the Army base yesterday on the Army transport Oriente for an inspection of defense bases in the Caribbean area and the Panama Canal Zone.
