Recently Spitz traced three murderers, guilty of double crime when he was put on the trail 90 hours after the murder had been com mitted. He tracked two of the criminals to their hiding place in one village and the third to another place six miles away.
 Another famous case of this wonderful dogs was tracking three young men who had held up, beaten and robbed local works manager and his assistant. When Spitz was brought on the scene, he cir cled around a few times, then immediate lv started for the distant village of Mali Kulyanlnik. Here he saw three young men who were coming down the village street and made sudden dash for them. He siezed one by the belt, and when pulled off fastened his teeth in the leg of a second. He was again torn away, but did not attack the third man.
 Sptz then went off on another trail. leading the police to a lonely hut. where another man was found hiding, whom the dog immediately attacked. The three were then taken to the hospital where they were identified by one of their vic- tims The latter's assistant and the driver of their cab also recognized the three thugs.
