nesses who saw the maroon sedan
parked near Hoopers car: one or
more witnesses who saw il on the

the two who believed the killers
trailed them north to Eaton

MAY BE OTHERS
There may be others who have
not yet been revealed by Prose-
cutor Sigler.
Although evidence indicates
Senator Hooper was ambushed
and forced off the highway, Prose-
cutor Sigler has not abandoned
the possibility that the murderer
was riding with the 40-year-old
legislator, while the maroon sedan
waited for the escape.
State police continued today to
search for the stranger who &C.
costed Hooper in the lobby of the
Porter Hotel, where he was last
seen in Lansing before leaving for
him home in Albion.
Reports that the FBI had
thrown its forces into the search
and had moved agents into jack

police proved unfounded. A Jack

for Detroit FBI chief Robert A.

however, said he would not be
able to fill the engagement but
