Jail here today threw bomb which
officers said shattered the confession
of William Edward Hickman at Pendle-
ton, Ore, that he was aided in the
kidnapping of Marian Parker and that
Andrew Cramer was her slayer. Cram
er admitted having known Hickman.
Herman Cline, chief of Los. Angeles
detectives, who is now on his way to
Pendleton, has declared that his belief
that Hickman was both the kidnaper
and slayer Of the little school girl, had
not been shaken by Hickman's con-
fession.
Cramer, who has been a prisoner
here since last August, told detectives
that he was acquainted with June
Dunning This was the name given by
Hickman when he told Pendleton of
ficers that Andrew Cramer had aided
him in the crime. He said he had
picked up Crainer and June Dunning
in San Diego last Thanksgiving day
and gave them an automobile ride to
Los Angeles.
San Diego authorities today said they
had information that an Andrew
Cramer and June Dunning had been
in San Diego last September or Octo-

man apparently his brother, known as
Frank Andrew Kramer had crimin-
al records on file. Aliases we're on file

inal records against their names, most
of them originating in Los Angeles
county.

the brother of the Andrew in jail here,
also is a prisoner He is serving a
term for robbery.
Frank was jailed in August the
same month as his brother Andrew,

Conflicting stories were told police
and newspapermen by the brothers
concerning their acquaintance who
might throw additional light on the
abduction and murder of the daughter
Of Perry M. Parker, bank official.
Andrew told officers that his brother
had "kept company" with Rose Hurst,
alias Rose Craner, whose true name
he said was Rose Dunning June
Dunning, Andrew said, was a sister of
Rose. Both women, he said, ran room
ing houses in Los Angeles Police late
today were seeking them.
Frank, from his cell in The county
Jail, told police that he had never
heard of June Dunning and that the
only sister Rose had was Mable Dun
ming. Rose Frank said, is his wife
