LEOPOLD AGAIN
DRAWN INTO THE
MURDER PROBE

Chicago. May To- AP-The
name Of Nathan Leopold, Jr., Chi
cagO thrill" slayer, again has
been drawn into the investigation
of the murder of Statewide prison
official last week by seven cscap'
ing convicts.
His alleged involvement is based
on note he scrubbed to his father
on the cover Of his call bench. Leo
pold, who is serving life sentence
for the murder Of Bobby Franks,
was in solitary confinement near
the deputy warden's office when
the official was attacked and slain.
The Importance Of the newly
discovered message, investigators
intimatcd, hinges upon the inter
probation of one sentence, in which
Leopold told his father he was
"about tt, 20 away" The note was
made pubic at Joliet, where in
dictments Charging the. seven con-
victs with the murder of Deputy
Warden Klein were returned by a
grand jury yesterday, read:
The Message
"Dear Father:
"As I am about to 20 away
want you to know trat in my last
hours l acknowledge that had !
followed your teaching, would
have avoided trouble. am sorry,
dear father, fer the trouble l have
caused you and realize that ! did
not do the right thing.
Lovingly your son,
"Nathan."
Whether the reference to "going
away" was occasioned by fear on
the part Of Leopold that he. would
be killed by the fleeing ccnvicts
or whether he planned to escape

VARIOUS REASONS FOR
DELAY WERE ADVANCED


According to Nome adviccs May H.,
that city had been selected as the
landing place of the dirigibc Norge.
Ralph Lomen, Norwegian vice coun-
ell. on that day received a cablcgram
from Amundscn asking him to have
100 men ready to lower the dirigible
to the ground. Four anchors were
placed around the field to hold the
Norge, which Lomcn said would be
Debated there and shipped to the
United States.
Considerable anxiety was felt in
some quarters for the safety Of the
explorers as storm was reported
raging in the region the Norge was
expected to enter after lcavin. Point
Barrow behind.
Friends Were Not Alarmed
Acuuaintanccs of Amundsen, how
ever, expressed confidence that the
Norge would arrive at Nome safely
and it was felt that the delay was due
to Amundsen's desire to swing out
again over the vast "blind spot in
the polar sea before ending his voy-
age.
Radio stations of the navy and Grmy
signal corps in Alaska had been main.
taiainr 24-h6ur watch for word
from the Norge since its departure.
The Norge was reported sighted over
Point Barrow two days ago about the
same time messages attempting to es-
tablish communication with the Nome
radio station were heard by naval
stations on st. Paul Island and
Hinchinbrook Island.
From that time, all trace OF the
Norge was lost.
Numerous reasons for the silence
of the Norge's radio were advanced.
II was suggested the Norge might
have been driven far from its course
by an Arctic storm. or that inc YES,
sci might have been damaged and
forced to land where communication
was not possible.
It was also thought that Amundsen.
pleased by the easy voyage across the
mole decided to make further eXplora-
ton ventures over the Arctic ocean
north Of Alaska and SO passed beyond
the limits Of the radio apparatus
aboard the Norge.

sitiOn. At
was ALSO attributed to the waning
strength Of the dirigible's electric bat
tcries. which supplied power for the
annaratus. The batteries were sup
nia,nnrtcd. it was understood, by
wind driven generators but the eftic-
iency Of the radio under such CIR
Gu stances was doubted. !.
The possibility that Amundsen mad
aliphted for fuel at Wainwright. 100
miles southwest of Point Darrow, was
also suggested. Amundsen deposited
10 tons Of gasoline at Wainwright in
1924 when he was prepared for an
airplane flight from Alaska to Spitz-
bergen.
The fuel supply of the Norge also
gaze some concern to observers. II
the dirigible's engines were driven ct
full capacity, it was believed, the gas
oline would last only GO hours. Di-
rigihle experts suggested Amvndsen
would probably conserve his fuel sup
