SOUGHT
ABOARD SHIP

LOS ANGELES, Nov. II. U.P) =
Passengers on the Matson Liner
Lurline were held on the vessel
when it docked here today to per-
nit detectives to make a thorough
search for Brook Hart, missing
young business executive of San
Jose, who purportedly was kid
naped.
There were a score of officers in
the boarding party and they esti-
mated it might take as long as
six hours to conclude their search.
The idea that Hart might be
aboard the craft was based on
the fact that his purse was found
yesterday lodged on a bumper rail
of an oil tanker that serviced the
Lurline just before it sailed from
San Francisco bay.
San Francisco authorities con-
cluded that the purse might have
been thrown from a portfolio of the
Lurline.
All passengers were ordered to
remain aboard until quick search
was made of the ship.
The hasty search revealed moth
ing and the passengers were then
permitted to pass, one by one,
down a single gangplank.
They scrutinized each passenger
closely.
TRONA, Cal, Nov. II. U.P)-
Fears increased today for the safe
! ty of George Gleixner, reputed
bootlegger, and his wife who were
abducted by three men after a
/ furious gun battle.
Authorities became more appre-
hensive as a search, extending
throughout Southern California,
wore on without developing any
trace of captives or captors. Of
ficers believed GleiXner, whom they
said operated small bootlegging
establishment, may have been
taken for a ride
The three gunmen seized Mrs.
Gleixner in her home and over
powered her husband after spirit
ed gun battle ending when his
bullet-riddled car was crowded in
to a ditch and he sought to escape
on foot.
Authorities said no trace was
seen of the kidnapers' machine
after they sped away toward the
Kern county line, possibly bound
for Los Angeles.

group and it remains for Gen. Allen
to choose his partner in the forthcom-

one of more than passing interest.
Gen. Allen has played the Chevy
Chase course many times in scores bet

something Ike plus in the Senior Coli
Association of the club. Chasmar Is
one of the outstanding golfers OF all
ages at Columbia, a man who usually
can knock the ball around in 78 or bet
ter any time he starts. For years he
has not played in tournaments, but II
he had elected to compete in formal

golfers around Washington, under any
