A—14 THE SUNDAY STAR, WASH\INGTON, D. €, OCTOBER 31, 1937—PART ONE. CAPTIRED KILER BLANES HS WE Frank Bird Says Her Home- sickness' Brought Him Back to Cleveland. By the Associated Press. CLEVELAND, Oct. 30.—Frank Bird, desperado-killer, was back in jail to- night—and the reason, he said, was that his wife “cried and cried for her mother.” Bird, 30, and his wife, Sylvia, 21, were arrested at her parents’ home last night without a shot being fired —and with the aid of her father, Joseph Sieber. “Sylvia was homesicks” Theodore N. Stapleton, chief of the Federal Bu- reau of Investigation here, quoted Bird as sayinz. “She cried and cried for her mother. She'd been crying for three days steady before we left New York for Cleveland.” Bird and his brother Charles escaped 1 with James Widmer from county jail in a bullet-punctuated chase last month. Widmer was retaken in Philadelphia October 15. Federal authorities hunted in th East tonight for Charles Bird in a drive to apprehend the last fugi- | tive member of the Bird gang. Charles, a chestnut-haired 26-year-old despera- | do, believed with his wife Barbara. | The Birds’ wives are sisters. The hunt centered in New York and Bal- timore, agents said. Twelve years ago Frank was con- victed of murder in Missouri, fe-| E ceived a life sentence. Widmer also was convicted in 1926 of murder. Charles Bird, still a fugitive, is wanted | gzrstv.lr;lr:;rl:;e r:bble()r-‘yea‘r“ szrétdeir‘x‘r:n f(:;% . 4 : For beautifully furnished bedroom in bank robbery.
