SUSPECT IS HELD (Continued From Page One) description given eaflier by the attendant, Robert J. Plucinski, was not far from that given by Mrs. Smith. Both eame ¢lose, but did not match, the police description of Marsin. Marsin is five feet four inches tall, weighs 123 pounds but looks heavier, has green eyes and brown hair. Mrs. Smith said her kidnaper was 35 to 45 years old, five feet four inches, 140 pounds, with green eyes and brown hair. When a reporter asked her how she identified the suspect, she replied, ‘the arms, the voice, and the eyes, and the way the ears were when the was tied around.” Face Was Masked The kidnaper masked the lower half of his face with a handker- chief all the time he was. with Mrs. Smith. Marsin and the other men in the police lineup were similarly masked. Marsin said he was convicted of ear theft in Brooklyn in 1937 and “bought” himself a suspended sen- tence with $6,000. He refused to explain. He insisted that was his only police record. A man hid in her car and sur- | prised her at the point of a gun, He drove her to the Superstition Mountains and held her there until the ransom wag paid. The ransom note was found in the golf bag left at a service station about 13 miles west of the Superstitions. A bouquet of roses, delivered by a messenger, con- tained note directing Smith to take the money to drive near the mountain and look for further instructions. Smith withdrew the $75,000 from a bank and drove to the mountain payoff point while a sheriff's plane IZEN Saturday, June 12, 1954 MIDSHIPMEN GET (Continued from Page One) of the commissions. Shimek said he was “grateful for the interest which is indicatiye of everything good for the country and the in- dividual.” No Discussion The young officers didn’t want to talk any more of the grounds on which the Navy had investi- gated their cases. Pollack did say that he had no idea why he was investigated unless it had some- thing to do with “associations which I really. never had.” Yadlowski’s father and Shimek’s mother had earlier voiced their opinions of why their sons’s com- missions were being held up. The father said he thought it was be- cause he had once taken out an insurance policy on the boy from the International Workers Order, later listed by the attorney gen- eral as subversive. Shimek’s mo- ther said she was born in Siberia and Paul has a brother studying law in Poland and that may have been the reson for his delay, On the Shimek farm near Hazen, Ark., Mrs. Shimek said she was happy to receive the news. “In- vestigations are a good thins, hut why did they wait so late?” she | asked, After leaves at home, Shimek will report to Pensacola for avia- tion training, Pollack to the de- stroyer Fox at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and Yadlowsky to Quantico, Va., for basic Marine offi- cer training.

However, Swink found an old handsaw in the shack. Door Forced He managed to force the door open enough to insert the saw be- tween the door and the jamb. Then he cut through the hasp with oe saw to free himself and the ry. ~“This took about an hour,” Swink said. As soon as he was free, Swink notified the Highway Patrol at Marathon. Cpl. S. R. Walker broadcast the alarm at 4:28 p. m. yesterday. Deputy Sheriff Rene Raiole, cruising north on U. S. 1 at Rock Harbor saw the station wagon ahead of him.. Deputy Follows He followed the station wagon, driven by Lyngklip, for about a half mile and then forced it to the side of the road. Lyngklip surrendered meekly. The loaded Luger was under the front seat of the station wagon. Meanwhile, the radio message had been received at the sheriff’s office here. Highway patrolmen in Homestead also were on the look- out for Lyngklip. When the message was received at the sheriff’s office here, all cars were alerted since no one knew in which direction Lyngklip was driving after he left West Summerland. The sheriff's department here also notified Key West police who were on the lookout for the fugi- tive. Lyngklip was brought here and placed in the county jail. At a hearing today before Justice of the Peace Roy Hamlin, he was charged with armed robbery and bond was set by Hamlin at $5,000. The sheriff's department said tional charges of auto theft.

The new American Flag is be- lieved to have first been flown in battle during the siege of Fort Schuyler, now Rome, N. Y¥., on August 3, 1777, Being without an official flag, the defenders impro- vised one. The soldiers contribut- ed parts of their uniforms and the ladies gave their petticoats. The Stars and Stripes received | her first salute from a foreign pow- jer, when on February 14, 1778, John Paul Jones took the U. S. S- Ranger into Queberon Bay near Brest, France. He received a sal- ute from the French fleet under Admiral La Motte Piquet. First Victory Under Flag And it was on April 24, that a foreign worship struck her co- lors to this proud new flag for the first time. This. followed the de- feat of the British man-of-war, H. B. M. S, Drake, by the U. S. S. Ranger, under Captain Jones’ com- mand. In 1795 the Flag took'on a new look with the entry into the Union of Vermont and Kentucky, This necessitated the addition of two stars and also two stripes as the law then provided. Thus the flag the Americans car- |ried into battle during the War of 1812 had 15 stars and an equal number of stripes. It was this ban- ner that flew over Fort McHenry near Baltimore, during the bom- bardment by a British fleet the night of Sept. 13-14, 1814. Watch- ing anxiously from a ship in the harbor as the Briish attacked, Francis Scott Key, a Baltimore lawyer, saw the Flag still flying by the “dawn’s early light” and was inspired to write the Star Spangled Banner. Ft. McHenry Flag The Fort McHenry, flag was made by the wife of Colonel Henry S. Pickersgill of Baltimore. It was 42 feet, two inches long, each of its 15 stripes was two feet broad and each of its 15 stars was two feet from point to point. Because there was not enought floor space in her home to assemble the flag, the work was done on the spacious malting floor of a nearby brewery. Miss Margaret Young assisted Mrs. Pickersgill in making the his- toric flag. Miss Young cut the stars and sewed them on the ‘Flag. This young lady later became the mother of Henry S. Sanderson, who served as Grand Exalted Ruler of the Order of Elks in 1884, After the British fleet broke off the attack, the Flag that had wav- ed defiance all through the’ night was hauled down and:preserved, and may be seen today in the Smi- thsonian Institution, in Washington, D.C. Standard Design On April 14, 1818, Congress a- dopted a resolution designed to pre- clude the necessity for enlarging the flag and basically altering its design through the. addition of stars and stripes as each new state entered the Union. It was resolved that on and after July 4, 1818, the stripes should be thirteen in number, the blue field should carry a star for each of the twenty states then in the Union and that a star should be added on the Fourth of July following’ the entry of every new state. While. the stars in today’s flag appear in six horizontal and eight vertical rows, there has never Your Grocer SELLS That Good STAR * BRAND AMERICAN COFFEE and CUBAN — TRY A POUND TODAY — STRONG ARM BRAND COFFEE Triumph Coffee Mill at ALL GROCERS RADIO and CIFELLI'S tv'semin Factory Methods Used— All Work Guaranteed Marine Radios & Asst.

He added that at the time the buildings were being put up a na- tional steel shortage was in effect and in most instances, the’ steel was unloaded directly,from trucks and put immediately in forms.
