PRETZEL BAKER ROBBED OF FLOUR WORTH $150
Thieves who entered the American Pretzel Company bakery, at 1358 Whitman avenue, through a skylight early yesterday, stole 15 bags of flour, valued at $150. The theft was discovered by Herbert Schoelkopf, manager, who said he believed the flour was hauled away in a truck.
Apparently frightened away when they tried to force the front door of the American Lunch House, 1012 Broadway, would-be intruders dropped a pair of pliers on the step. Marks on the door indicated the robbery attempt.
