HELEN CHASE. .01 In In Si Memo to the Red Cross A friend telephoned the home of Mrs.

M. in Bay Ridge and the maid aasweied with the astonishing Information: "Missus not home," she said. "She's gone to One Aid Class." Just how much of their first aid instructions the ladies will remember to use in times of stress is a question. At a gathering of women we heard the subject discussed and one lady related although she had taken a first aid course, when a person fainted in her home recently she, the "first aider," went 100 percent contrary to rules in attempting to aid the victim.

Goliger of 667 E. 34th who reported the shooting. OCEANFRONT AREAS TO BLACKOUT ON THURSDAY The lights of the Coney Island and Far Rockaway area will be extinguished from 9 to 9:20 Thursday night in the city's first test blackout. Police Commissioner Valentine said all traffic in the area would be halted during the blackout. This area includes several miles of shoreline.

BANDITS' NEMESIS WINS NEW PROMOTION Detective John Jacoby held the rank of a second grade officer today for his feat Sunday night in shooting it out with a pair of holdup men in a Queens Village drugstore, killing one and wounding another. A third suspect was later arrested. This virtually duplicated the performance that raised him from a uniformed patrolman to a third grade detective in 1930, when he stopped a robbery by killing one bandit, capturing a second and later seizing a third. His latest promotion order was signed yesterday by Commissioner Valentine.
