FREED ROBBER
GIVEN GOOD JOB
by HIS CAPTOR
Promise Made II Years
Ago Is Fulfilled

LOS ELES, June "a
G.N.SD With the bars of four
Federal prisons behind him, Roy
Gardner, notorious mail robber,
was ready to start life anew here
today, working for the man who
captured him II years ago.
Seventeen years in prison have
taught Gardner lot, he said, but
his guiding light through the
years he served his time was
Louis S. Sonney, a Los Angeles mo-
ton picture distributor and for.
mer police officer.
CHANGED MAN
"He showed me self-respect,"
Gardner said. after he walked
into my room at Centralia,
Wash, and stuck gun in my
face, saying I was all through,
1 became a changed man.
He told me if would go back
to prison and serve my term, he
would send me $5 a month and
give me a job when I got out.
He kept his word, and I've kept
mine"
Strangely enough. Sonney feels
he owes debt of gratitude to
Gardner. who terrorlzed the West
in 1919, 20 and 81 with his daring
train robberies and Jail breaks.
HANDSOME REWARD
Sonney collected a handsome
reward for capturing Gardner, en-
abling him to retire from ths
police force and enter into a busi-
ness that has been financially
good to him. He feels he owes his
start to Gardner.
Il have hired him as a sales
man." Sonney said, land he will
work throughout the State sell
ing films for me. I'll pay him
$50 a week and when he finds
himself, I am sure he will earn
much more"

Barbaras' intimates were
amazed last December when the

felt, she had placed herself in a
highly embarrassing position in

are in Europe at the moment to
rally to her support. Her father,
Franklin L. Hutton, and her step

Dorothy Crawford Makes
Appearance Here Tuesday

The Henderson Cooperative Concert
Association will present Dorothy
Crawford, well-known monologist, In
the last of it's series Tuesday evening
April 10, at $3.50 o'clock in the high
school auditorium.
Dorothy Crawford was born in
Portland, Ore. Her early schooling in
San Francisco brought sout unusual
writing ability and later she went to
New York to develop under the tut
ton of Rubin Goldmark her very
marked talent for musical compost
ton. 1t was when she was engaged
to direct the music for a group in ex-
perimental acting that she discovered
her dramatic ability. She played
many roles, ranging from the heav-
lest of tragedy to the 1ightest of COM
edy, with equal success. After this
her ultimate career began to unfold
and her writing, her music, and her
acting, converged into a unique one

She played ten widely different
characters the night. of her debut IN
San Francisco and the critics were
Henderson daily dispatch. (Henderson, N.C.) 1914-1995, 1938-04-14

unanimous in their praise. But the
young artist was anything but salts
fled and mapped out for herself GER
tain months in which to fill engage
ments, leaving others free for study,
research, and writing.
Miss Crawford has until recently
confined her appearances mainly to
the Pacific Coast on account of the
many demands for her services there,
including annual return engage
ments. For instance, she has the dis
tinction of having appeared for one
organization in Oakland, CAL, five
times in successive seasons.
Dorothy Crawford has that ability,
given to few, to see life with a pene-
trating eye and then to recreate it so
tellingly that the theatre seems to dis
appear and the audience finds itself
completely transported. Voice, move
ment and gesture color her interpre-
tations so truly that one never thinks
of her as Such-and-such character
but only of the character itself. To
have an evening filled with pro-
cession of such lifelike characters is
a memorable experience.
