Girl Discovered
In ROOn,ing House

Stone and Porecki meanwhile
began hunt for Tuchel. His adj
dress, according to kneisels rec
ord, was rooming house on
Goodwin avenue.
Not here" said the landlady
Don't know where he is,
either"
Stone and Porecki asked about
the girl. The woman indicated
an attic room.
"Mary Neimic's her name"
The officers climbed the stairs
and knocked on the door. Mary
Neimic turned the key and found
herself being pushed back into
the dark.
do you know a guy named
The girl nodded.
Tuchel ?" Porecki asked.
II haven't seen him lately and
hope 1 never do again. He's
got n wife and two kids, but
I'm afraid to give him up. He
and that tough pal Of his are
always coming around here and
making trouble"
Stone and Porecki looked at
each other.
"Pal?" they asked together.
"Sure-Walter MytOka," she
replied. They're always to-
gether."
As soon as she furnished My
toka's address the elated officers
left.
1t was past midnight when
they forced their way into
small room in a house on Wash
ington street. They surprised
their quarry, who was fast
asleep. and hustled him off to
headquarters. There Mytoka
denied any knowledge OF the
shooting at Sunderland's; he had
never been in Massachusetts, he
said, nor had he seen Tuchel
lately.
~ guess we'll shove you in
cell until you're ready TO talk"
observed Porecki. His prisoner
quailed; he began to open his
mouth when the ringing tele-
phone clipped off his words.
"GreenfIeld calling" announced
the operator to Porecki. The
detective waited.
Hello, POrecItl, this Is Tay-
lOr." came the voice, 400 miles
away. "SuchOki has just picked

PU Tell Truth,
Suspect BIUrtS

Listen. Taylor" sPorecki said
as he looked at Mytoka, We've
got Tuchel's pal and I'm going
TO plaster n murder rap on him
right now"
Mytoka blanched.
Listen, fellows" he blurted
out. 81 don't know anything
about a murder, but I'll tell you
the truth. I met Tuchel In a
Spring street tavern early In
January and he was with Mary
Neimic. We had a few drinks
and he told me he was going to
open q barrOom and would give
me q Job as n bartender. He
said he knew a man In Spring
field who would advance him the
money.
"On January 9. we went 10

links? Had Gluecks system
fingered the assassin?
Taylor read TuchePs record.
The man. A, had criminal rec
ord that dated back to 1918. He
spent his last term in the Nor
folk Prison Colony at Norfolk,
Mass, and was released on pa
role on Nov. %, 1887.
Tuchel was slated for depor-
tation TO his native Poland but
that country refused to accept
him, so Massachusetts turned
him over TO the parole authori-
ties in his home town, Paterson.
you'd better go down TO Pat
ersOn," said Stokes. I'll wire
the police you're coming
When Taylor stepped off the
train in the New Jersey city the
next day he was met by Detec-
tives Newman Stone and Mack
Porecki.

recki exclaimed. II once pinched
him as a suspicious person. Say,
he's got girl around these parts
and ! think 1 know where you
can find her"
The Paterson files yielded Tu-
chefs picture.
That's the guy" exclaimed
Porecki.
The three officers took the
photographs to Stephen K. Knei-
sci, Paterson parole officer, who
said:
This fellow hasn't been re-
porting regularly. In fact, i
haven't seen him for weeks"
"Tuchel looks like my man."
agreed the enthusiastic Taylor.
But I've got to make sure. l
must give Suchokl a look at this
picture"
He took a night train for
Greenfield.

ResistS for Hours,

"Get dressed. Tuchel, we're
taking you in" Porecki ordered.
At headquarters, Tuchel de-
MED all charges.

sets" he said. IL must have
been dreaming II ! asked you
about some people being dead"

ing. he was locked up. Taylor
airmailed the revolver TO Bos-
ton. The next day Van Am
burgh telephoned him:
That's the gun, all right. The
bullets and shells match those
used in the Suchoki shooting"
Tuchel was brought from his
cell and the new evidence placed
before him. White as death, the
man suddenly burst out:
whats tie usei you got me.
And I did everything i could TO
Outsmart the cops"
He then corroborated Ny
toka's story in almost every de-
tail and absolVed his pal.
This was February %. Tay-
lor made preparations to extra
dite Tuchel and Mytoka to Mas
sachusetts-but Tuchel had no
intention of facing what he be-
lieved TO be a first-degree muir
der rap. On the following morn
ing they found him dead! He
had hanged himself in his cell
with a moose OF shoe laces!
Mytoka waived extradition
and was arraigned February %
in Greenfield, where Mr.. SUI
choki was still a helpless invalid
as result of his wounds.
Judge James c. Donnelly
ruled there was no evidence TO
warrants an accessory charge
against Mytoka. He gave Tuch-
ELS erstwhile pal two years in
the Franklin House of Correc-
ton on the mans guilty plea TO
a charge Of conspiring to rob.
Tuchel's confession revealed
that he could find no money In
the farmhouse OF his victims.
His only loot was $500 which he
found in a woman's pocketbook
in the car-not even enough to
cover his expenses!

derland, in a woods just off the
main highway at Amherst. On
the floor lay five discharged 80
shells.
From doctors at the Green
field hospital Taylor procured the
four lead bullets taken from
Suchoki's body and rushed these
to Capt. Charles A. Van Am
burgh, ballistics expert of the
state police. Van Amburgh
later reported the slugs had
come from the shells found in
the farmers stolen car!
Laboratory instruments proved
the ticket stubs had come from
the Fabian Theater in the Jer-
sey silk town. But the theaier
people could tell nothing of the
man who bought them.
Taylor went back TO the farm,
searching relentlessly for more
evidence. Back of the house, in
an obscure brook. he found an
other roll of adhesive tape and
a second sandbag blackjack!
Mrs. Suchoki succumbed TO
her wounds, and so a murder
charge now awaited Taylor'S
elusive quarry,

in on the night train.
The three manhunters visited

Stranger Asks
About Habits

On the way the stranger
asked whether the couple al
ways went TO church on Sunday;
Suchoki replied that they hadn't
missed in years. Then the man
got out at Deerfeld.
II was apparent TO the
trooper, when the ambulance
reached Greenfield, that this
stranger had returned three
weeks later to rob the couple
while they were at church.
Suchoki, 65 but In rugged
health, was given an even chance
to live; while his wife, five years
his junior, was not expected TO
survive.
Word of the crime was tele-
phened TO Capt. John +. Stokes.
chief OF the Massachusetts state
detectives, who in turn called
Lieut.. Ira c. Taylor al Spring
field and ordered him to Sunder-
land. ..
Taylor's interest conferred in
the brown overeoat to which the
game old lady had held But the
officer could find no identifying
marks on the garment.
From the barn floor Taylors
men picked up a Paisley scarf,
apparently dropped by the gun
man as he fled. Near the kitchen
door was found a jimmy and
two lengths OF rope. In the
kitchen lay a roll Of adhesive
tape, a battered brown felt hat
and a bag filled with Sand--an
improvised blackjack!
Taylor drove over to Boston
and showed the coat, tape,
jimmy and the rope to Chief
Chemist Or. Joseph Walker of
the state police. Doctor Walker
submitted the articles to labora-
tory tests and gave Taylor a dis
heartening report.

Hunt for Clue
In Parole Files

"Now IL Giuock's plan works
We should be able to find the as
-sailant of Mr.. and Mrs. Suchoki
In our state police files. Glueck
contends that the criminal re-
turns TO crime within four
months after release. SO II you
don't find your suspect, then
simply go back four months.
Eventually, according to Glueek,
YOU should turn up your man."
TAYLOR became intensively in
terested and eagerly accepted
Stokes invitation to tackle the
the parole files in an effort to
discover some trace of the Sun
derland assassin.
Starting from January Is, one
day before the stranger accepted
a ride from Suchoki. the detec-
tive drew out the cards OF con-
victs released from the states
institutions as far back as Sept.
15,1937. There were Sc in this
category.
He and Stokes went carefully
over each card. Some were
confidence men, swindlers, safe
crackers every known type
of criminal.
I'VE can throw these fellows
out" declared the sage Stokes.
I'VE wouldn't have n confidence
man or a safe cracker pulling
stIck-up4 job like this one"
The cards were sorted into
piles according to previous
crimes of the parolee. As a likely
prospect turned up, Taylor tele-
typed that mans home city, ask
ing for a report. These reports
began to come in, some by tele-
type, others by telephone. One
by one Stokes and Taylor re-
duced their pack until only three
were left. Taylor got on the
telephone.
The first man had a steady
job.
Hes doing Okay," said the
parole officer.

"In check on this fellow. i
haven't seen him lately" Doubt

Who was this last candidate?
Taylor read the name on the
back: Leon Tuchel, alias Leo

Return to Farm
After Church

1t was PAS o'clock on Sunday
afternoon, Feb. 6. 1898. The
Suchokis had returned TO their
farm al Sunderland, midway be-
tween Greenfield and Northamp-
ton, Mass, after attending
church and visiting friends.
The story Of the savage attack
upon them took form in an am
bulance. summoned by state
troopers from the Northampton
barracks They had been called
10 Sunderland by motorist who
saw the PROSTATE form on the
highway
Mrs SuchokI was unconscious
with two bullet wounds in her

though shot -four times, regained
consciousness and was able 20
talk. Furthermore. he told the
trooper be recognized his as

"PVe seen him before 1

Suffering intense pain, the
farmer gasped out every last
detail Of his important story.

January is. he was backing his
car from the driveway when the
stranger walked up and asked

TWO Men HUOIUed,
Officer Deduces

Taylor reported TO Captain
Stokes, going over all the evil
dence and expounding his theory
of the case.
There were at least two men
involved" he told his superior.
"The duplication of clues tells
ma this.
From what SuehOkl told us
the stranger who rode In his car
three weeks before the crime
and learned of his churchgOing
regularity was afraid of the
farmers dog. The Sunday OF
the crime SuchOh left the dog
with o neighbor. That's what
those fellows were waiting for.
1.-THE theater tickets look like
the sole surviving clue"
Stokes seemed lost in media
ton. Finally he spoke up
This Is the opportunity I've
been looking fora chance to
test a theory In which I'm very
much interested. That's recid-
ivism." He cXtinguished a
cigaret before proceeding.
"Dr. sheldon Glueck, pro-
lessor of crimfnOlOgy at Har-
ward University. one Of the
cOuntry's leading criminOlOgists,
Is founder of this system OF
crime detection" he told Lieu
tenant Taylor.
"Acco TO Glueck's
theory, 80 per cent of the coun-
try's released criminals return

indicates. He and his wife
Eleanor Glueek, studied this
theory for years. The PAROLES

Taylor drove back 10 Sunder-

was getting away from him.

began TO run his fingers under

Annual Sheep Dip
By Navajos Becomes
Variety Of Festival
Big Job Tokes on Air
Of Sociol Gathering
Under Indion Service

On the vast Navajo Reservation
In the Southwest, $50, 900 sheep and
goats move slowly each summer
over the pastures to the sheep dip.
Alongside the flocks, Navajo men,
women and children sing and dance
and pray to the gods to protect
their flocks.
The annual sheep dip, conducted
by the Indian Service with the CO.
operation Of the Bureau Of Animal
Industry in the Department Of Ag-
riculture, has become . kind Of
summer festival, Commissioner John
Collier recently reported to Secre-
tary Of Interior Ickes. The 16-
million acre reservation is divided
into 19 districts for dipping, and
there are u vats In all. Each family
has to travel only or 10 miles to
the dip, but the whole family goes
along to help, even the smallest
children. The women of the family
usually do the actual dipping, rather
than trust their precious stock to
the hands of strangers.
The whole affair, according to
Indian Service officials, affords a
striking example of Indian co-opera-
ton in the national conservation
program. Thirty years ago the Naya-
Jos objected violently to the white
mans sheep medicine. They pre-
ferred to trust to Providence for .
successful stock year. Now they still
call on the gods for help. scatter
ing pollen on the home corral before
departure for the dipping places. At
the watts, however, they willingly dip
their sheep in sulphur compound,
for they have learned from exper-
ience that it prevents disease and
ticks. Even the dogs are dipped for
good measure.
When the sheep dip is over, about
1000 bands Of sheep and goats have
been treated.
