— Thе appellants were charged with armed robbery “forcibly by violence and putting Melvin Calvert in fear” and taking from his possеssion money “then and there the property of Walt’s South Side Market, Inc., a corporation.” The defendants were both found guilty as charged аnd sentenced accordingly. By a motion for a new trial they asked for a reversal [1] on the ground that there is a material variance in the evidence in that there was no proof that the money taken was the property of “Walt’s South Side Market, Inc.” as alleged, although there was testimony with reference to Walt’s South Side Super ' Market, ■Walt’s Super Market, Walt’s Market, and various■ other somewhat similar names; and [2] that there is- not sufficient evidence showing that the appellant-Board participated in the alleged crime.
It is urged by the State that the-essential element of the offense is the allеgation of the taking of the money with force and violence from the person of Melvin Calvert, and that the allegation that the money was . the property of
Walt’s South Side .Market, Inc.
was
*187
surplusage and at most, went to show that the money was not the property of the accused.
Welch
v.
State
(1924),
A review of the evidence shows that two witnesses stated they were cashiers at “Walt’s Southside Market” at the time of the allеged robbery, and recited the events with reference to the alleged robbery at the time. Both witnesses identified apрellant-Roberts. They testified that the money belonged to “Walt’s South Side Market.” A third witness, Gilbert Silverman, testified that he was a customer in “Walt’s Southside Market” at the time of the holdup. Lowell Lynn stated that he was an employee of “Walt’s Southside Supermarket” on the night in question and observed the еvents which were the same as those referred to by the other witnesses. The police referred to “Walt’s Southside Supermarket” when they were called to the scene of the holdup. Melvin Calvert referred to “Walt’s Supermarket” located at 1053 South West Street, and recited the same events as taking place at the same time, and referred by name to the cashiers who testified as witnesses. We therefore have witnesses interchangeably using these names for the same lоcation of the store, market, or supermarket in question and referring to the same place, the same date аnd the same events. Anyone listening to this testimony would conclude that these names were used interchangeably and were nаmes by which the place, store or market was commonly known.
It seems to us the principle of
idem sonans
is applicable here. At most, it can be said that the place was identified, as alleged in the affidavit, as “Walt’s Southside Market,” omitting the “Inc.” This is a similar situation to that where a defendant is
*188
named and the word “Junior” or “Senior” is affixed thereto. It has been held that such an abbreviation and description neеd not be proved.
Allen
v.
The State
(1876),
A somewhat similar case is that of
Headlee
v.
State
(1929),
“ . . . Throughout the evidence, the owner of thе automobile which was taken was referred to as ‘American Security Company.’ The evidence was conclusive thаt this company was located in Rush-ville, Indiana. Although the corporate name of the owner was ‘American Security Co. of Rushville,’ it can be inferred from the evidence that it was generally known as ‘American Security Company.’ There is no doubt аs to what corporation was meant when that name was used in the indictment and was used in the evidence. Although the ‘Americаn Security Company’ was named in the indictment and in the evidence as owner, the defendant introduced in evidence a сopy of its articles of incorporation to show that the words ‘of Rushville’ were part of its name. The variance in thе instant case was not of such a character as would mislead the defendant or expose him to the peril of bеing put twice in jeopardy for the same offense.” Headlee v . State (1929),201 Ind. 545 , 554,168 N. E. 692 ,170 N. E. 433 .
*189
*188
The test in determining whether a variance is material is whether the defendant was misled by the varia
*189
tion in the evidence in his preparation for his defense and whether the defendant will be protected in the future against double jeopardy as to the same offense. In this case it is apparent from the evidenсe that the defendant was not misled.
Madison
v.
State
(1955),
We point out further the appellant made no objection to the admission of the evidencе wherein the interchangeable names were used for the market in question. Objections must be promptly made that such evidеnce is not material or relevant.
Butler
v.
State
(1963),
On the contention that appellant-Board was not connected with the crime, the evidence shows that he admitted his presence in the getaway car, but claimed he was intoxicatеd at the time, while a police officer testified as to his flight and an attempt to elude arrest after the car he wаs in had hit a fence. The evidence shows that Board was the driver of the getaway car. With this evidence, the trier of the fаcts had sufficient grounds to believe Board participated. in the alleged offense.
Ard
v.
State
(1958),
“ . . . presence of one аt the commission of a felony and companionship with another engaged therein, and a course of conduct bеfore and after the offense, are circumstances which may be con *190 sidered in determining whether aiding and abetting may be inferred.” Mobley v. State (1949),227 Ind. 335 ,85 N. E. 2d 489 .
Judgment is affirmed.
