FRANTICRUN MADE ON PONZI'S RIVAL (By United Press) Boston, Aug. 13.-A frantic mob today started a tremendous run on the officers of the Old Colony Trust Company, organized recently to "out Ponzi Ponzi" by offering investors 100 per cent profit within six months. When the offer was made, investors rushed in swarms to place their money in the coffers of the company. When a tip was passed out that federal officers were investigating operations of the company, the gullible stock holders rushed as determinedly back to regain possession of their money.
