Deserted in Subway
Miss Subways
Transit Patolman Brony Dounoroick makes ready to feed baby girl found abandoned in subway train. The
tot, about a month old, was found on the Independent Culver Line train in Brooklyn. Authorities believe
the youngster's mother left her on train Lit Coney Island.
Warmly clad and equipped with a bottle of milk, a month old blue-eyed, brown-haired baby girl was
abandoned shortly before 1 P.M. yesterday in an IND Culver Line train in Brooklyn.
The train, bound for Manhattan, was between the Avenue P and Avenue N stations when passengers in
the first car heard the infant wailing. The motorman was notified, and he turned the infant over to police.
Carried Suitcase
Authorities were told that a pretty young woman of about 20, carrying a suitcase, had entered the train at
the Coney Island terminus and left at the Van Siclcen St. Station, four stations before Avenue P.
Presumably, she had carried the child into the train in the suitcase. Fellow passengers said the young
woman was hatless, brown-haired and wore a short red jacket over a blue dress.
Warmly wrapped
The child was dressed in a pink wool sleeper and sweater, and was wrapped in a pink, white-striped
blanket covered by a red, white, and blue-plaid outer blanket. She was in good health.
From the Parkville police station, the infant was taken to the Foundling Hospital, 178 E. 68th St.
