out was picked up on the west
coast.
A particular design of tennis
shoe sOles trapped another man
who attempted to assault a girl.
This girl, who was IA, was
walking home through some
woods in Bethesda. Someone
grabbed her from behind, held a
knife at her throat and tore her
clothes off.
She was a calm girl though
and managed to talk the man
out of harming her.
This happened during the eve
ming so by the time we got
around to the scene of the at
tack, a full moon was shining.
Lucky break at that. The moon
was so bright we were able to
find tracks leading away from
where the struggle took place.
We followed them in one direc-
ton until they disappeared and
then we back-tracked. They had
been made by someone wearing
tennis shoes and they originated
near a construction project.
We rousted out the prime con-
tractor on the job and some sub
contractors before we found one
who said he had a laborer who
habitually wore tennis shoes.
The next morning we we're
waiting on the job and sure
enough, here comes this man
with tennis shoes. We took him
in for questioning. When we in
formed him that his shoes exact
ly matched the tracks from
which we had made plaster
molds, he began to weaken. 1t
was all over when the girl iden-
titled him.
Scientific detection has come a
long way since the time i started
out. A single thread from a
cloth sweater convicted one man
and freed another.
Both men were suspected Of
breaking into a store. A uni
formed policeman happened to
find this strand of white cloth
snagged on piece of broken
glass. He placed 1t in an en-
velope and left it on my desk.
We sent it to the FBI lab in
Washington. Meanwhile, we
questioned these two men who
were wearing identical white
sweaters - identical that is, ex-
cept one was angora wool and
the other a cheaper wool. Meth
err man would break.
But the microscope gave us
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1958-04-10

the right man. And he later con-
fessed.
Perhaps the grisliest murder I
can remember occurred some
years ago in the county.
A man called us and told us
his wife was missing. Five min
utes after he called US we knew
we had something more than a
routine missing person case. But
we couldn't find any evidence to
the contrary.
We had dozens of men on the
case, talking to everyone. We
really beat our brains out for
81 days. Then the break came.
Two hunters were shooting
out of season over on the Vir-
ginia side of the Potomac. They
heard a car coming down this
woods road and thinking 1t was
game warden, they ducked into
some heavy brush.
They had a dog with them.
While they waited for the car
to pass - it wasn't a game war
den, incidentally their dog
found something in the brush. A
Woman's head.
Exhaustive tests later proved
that dental work in the dead
woman's mouth was the same
work performed on the person
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1958-04-10

reported missing. The husband
was convicted of murder and was
sent to prison.
Crime hasn't changed, not a
bit. But the policeman has and
so has his role in the community.
People don't feel the way they
used to in the old Keystone Cop
days. You remember - they
used to call us dumb flat-foots. ;"
Things are a lot different now.
All of our men attend special
schools in addition to their regu-
lar police training. And all of
the detectives go through a fine
course offered by the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. I've
been to that school three times.
And folks have become less
secretive than they used to be.
Time was a father would call
us up and tell us something had
happened to his kid. But it was
like pulling teeth to get him to
tell us anything. That was up
to us to find out, with only mini
mum help from the father.
Police? Who wants to get mixed
up with them? - that was the
frame of mind.
Now they come into the sta
ton and tell us about what hap
pened.

DetectiUe

We have to be on call all the
time. The principal reason for
this is a detective must get to
the scene of a crime quickly. We
have found out that you can I'M
cover more in the first 10 min
utes than you can in the follow
ing week.
When things cool down, peO-
pie are apt to forget or maybe
alter their stories. It's the first
10 minutes that really produce
results.
1t is not at all unusual that
cases are solved in 10 minutes.
Nor is it unusual that they may
drag on for as long as two years.
We had a case that stretched
out for 81 months. 1t was a
case where nine little girls had
been molested.
Each case took place not far
from a church. We detailed men
to observe the people coming
and going from the church, and
believe me, that was a delicate
job - trying to pick out a sus-
pect from church folks.
Well, we finally picked up the
man and as it turned out, he
lived a good distance away. He
always came back to the area
of this church, though.
In detective work, it's the lit
tie things that add up to some
thing. That's why we always lis
ten to everybody, talk to any
one who might have some in
formation.
For instance there was that
case where a taxicab driver was
beaten and robbed in Rock Creek
Park. 1t was brutal. He not
only was beaten, but he was
stomped. We weren't sure he
was going to live.
Among all of the things he
could tell us about his assailants
- they were soldiers one lit
tie thing stood out: they wore
white gloves.
That meant two things to us:
they either were military police
or they were part Of some cere'
monial guard detachment.
Some good work with the mill.

That reminds me a man
came over to the station a while
back and told us he had been
slugged and robbed at his gas
station. He was knocked out,
he said. He did have a nasty
lump on the back of his head,
too.
Turned out that this guy had
been bending over at the waist
as he took a spare tire from a
trunk. He Strengthened up and
wham! he had a king-sized
goose egg on his head.
This gave him an idea why
not tell the police he had been
robbed and pocket the money.
