CHICAGO DRUGGIST IS REVENGE VICTIM Chicago, June 19.—(?)—Leon Ray- ;Mond, 36, was shot and killed last’ night in his drug store in Oak Park —a victim, police believe, of revenge. His body was found behind a counter by his wife, who had heard the shots in their living quarters above. Two revenge theories were based on. Raymond's past experience with rob- bers, and one had to do with “Wee Willie” Doody, notorious gunman and alleged mail robber. Police discounted the theory that Raymond was killed while resisting a robbery, since neither the cash regis- ter nor the sefe had been disturbed.
