V. Williams, Phoenix area fruit growers, who, after two days in the role of detective, confesses himself completely stumped. A mysterious visitor, unseen i and unheard, opened the screen door on the rear porch of the ranch home sometime Wednes day afternoon and deposited a piece of black luggage. Upon dis covering the bag, Mr. Williams inspected the contents but found no infernal machine, tommygun or other lethal object commonly asociated with black bags of fiction Instead, the inventory revealed merely a pair of soiled sox and some other apparel, none holding the slightest interest for Mr. Williams. Tiring of the role of detective and not being much of a mystery story fan, the rancher has turned the satchel over to the state po lice, where the owner. If any, may recover it upon proper Identification. NAZIS GETTING '"OLD" Los Angeles (U.R) Dr. Jan O. M.
