Promptly on George Weyerhaeuser's release after payment of $200,000 ransom (TIME, June 10), Chief Hoover had issued a serial number list of the ransom bills, put 100 of his agents on the kidnappers' trail. Within a few days 30 of the bills had turned up in Utah banks, been traced to Salt Lake City stores. A local detective was waiting when, one week to a day after the kidnapped boy's release, a short, brown-haired woman walked into a Salt Lake City 5-&-10? store, made a small purchase.

Only ostentation the Sulzbergers have permitted themselves is tucked safely away at the bottom of the earth. Explorers of Antarctica may follow the trail of grateful Admiral Byrd to Adolph Ochs Glacier, and from there survey the eminence of Mount Iphigene some 150 mi. from Arthur Sulzberger Bay. Even the four Sulzberger children, Marian, 16, Ruth Rachel, 14, Judith ("Judy"), 11, and Arthur ("Punch"), 9, were not forgotten. The first two letters of their names are immortalized in Mount Marujupu...
