Noted Sleuth Heads
Estate Search for
Killers of 2 Women
TWO Men, TWO Girls
Seen in Auto
Of Victims

Ell PASO, Tex, April 6 GN.S.l
A tri-State crime coordinator to.
day took over the hunt for the tor
ture slayers of Mrs. Weston G..
Frome and her daughter, Nancy.
The bodies of the two socially
prominent Berkley, Cal. women
were found Sunday on a west
Texas prairie. They had been bru
tally beaten and burned before
being shot to death.
An autopsy disclosed that neither
had been attacked, and robbery
was ascribed as the motive for
the maniacal crime. But the vici-
Gus cruelty of their assailants
aroused the citizenry as it has SCI
dom been moved before.
THREE STATES AID
AS a result peace officers from
Texas. New Mexico and Arizona
met here late yesterday and chose
Sheriff Chris Fox, of FL Paso
county, a veteran crime investiga-
WI, W ulIcCL IlS SSdICH.
Fox achieved wide acclaim four
years ago by running down Arthur
Wilson for the desert Staying of
Mrs. Irene Jebolt, a Cleveland
widow, whose nude body was
found near Van Horn, four miles
from the place where the Frome
murders were discovered.
Wilson was captured at Port of
Spain, Trinidad, brought back to
Texas and is now serving a life
term in the penitentiary.
SEVERAL CLUES
Fox said his department will be
organized to handle all informa-
ton on the search filtering in
from the vast and sparsely settled
territory to be covered. Every re-
port will be checked until it is def
nitely proven of no value.
A number of leads are already
on hand for further checking, Fox
said, although none we're believed
to be Of great worth after a pre-
Gminary investigation.
1t was still believed there were
two men and two women in the
party of killers. Witnesses saw
them driving in the Fromes' sedan
and a blue coupe shortly after the
Sayings were believed to have
taken place last Wednesday.
TWO WOMEN SEEN
One Of the women was described
as blond, about "a years old, and
the other a brunette nearer 30.
Neither description fitted Mrs.
Frome or her daughter. No de-
tails of the appearance Of the men
were obtained.
Among suspects seized was a
man held at BiSbee, Ariz., who
seemed dazed when arrested Mon
day and told at deputy sheriff at
Bowie that he wanted to get
somewhere and bury them" that
"they're lying out there face
down" Questioners were unable
to obtain further lucid statements
from the man.
Three men and a blond COM
panion implicated in q number of
robberies in the vicinity recently
were also being sought. The men
were identified as J. M. Flippin,
30; Jack Barnes, 80, and James
OBrien. Barnes has a police rec
ord in Tulsa. Okla, while the
others are former Texas convicts.
