LEGISLATURE NAMES MEMBERS OF NEW FISH AND GAME COMMITTEE Failure to procure sufficient evi dence on which to prosecute police Friday night released L. Gavigan, and Saturday morning freed Jim Grace, the two men held since Thursday as suspects in the hold up and shooting Wednesday night of Jack Frohma der. The ability of the pair to estab lish an alibi, and the failure of police to find the revolver from which the shot was fired, resulted, after a long conference Friday afternoon with Prosecuting Attorney Max Gehlhar, lu his recommendation that they be released. No further arrests had been made of suspects up to a late hour Satur day. Police, however, are steadily working on evidence they now have, and it is Indicated that otlfcr devel opments will follow soon. Alibi Established While the proprietor of the Salem Rooming house, where Gavigan and Grace were staying, first asserted that hs heard them come Into their room at eleven o'clock the night of the shooting, he told Prosecuting At torney Gehlhar and police Friday that they came to their rooms at 9:40 five minutes before the shoot ing Is alleged to have occurred. This was accepted as a final alibi for the pair. The proprietor claimed that they returned to their rooms at that time, and spent the evening playing cards. The only evidence police claimed Friday was lacking to cinch the crime on the pair the revolver that fired the shot has not yet been found. Repeated searches In the grass and brush in the vicinity of the shoot ing resulted In nothing, they claim. It developed Friday evening that Roma Hunter, employed at Cross' market, heard three shots fired and heard a man running along the Oak street sidewalk, as he was on his way I home. Other witnesses said that only one shot had been fired.
