Captured Robber Expert at Making Two Kinds of Dough New York (U.R) FBI gents and an authority on cooking agreed Wednesday that captured bank robber John Richard Bay less was an expert at raising two kinds of dough.' ' The G-men learned that the. 37-year-old Bayless knew his way around, a kitchen shortly after they arrested him at La Guardia airport Wednesday as he got off a transworld airliner from Los Angeles. ' Money. Recipes Found - They found in his personally initialed brief case the. $19,000 loot from a Hollywood bank robbery Monday and a loose-leaf notebook filled with recipes most of them, for breads, cakes and pies. " , ' The . balding, bespectacled Bayless, who looks more like a , securities salesman than a bank robber, told authorities he had collected the recipes in the 12 years he spent as head of the Alcatraz prison bakery..-.; One federal agent figured the recipes were "time tested" while Bayless did the Alcatraz : stint for robbing a Mansfield, Mo., bank of $591 in 1937. Checked by Expert ' - Florence Brobeck, a home economist and author of five cook books, read through the more than 100 pages of neatly typed recipes and said Bayless knew how to make the right kind of dough. Miss Brobeck admitted that in her 30 years of cooking she had once before seen one of Bayless recipes. It was for raspberry ice cream pie, made with gelatin, vanilla ice cream and crushed raspberries. "If they eat like that at Alcatraz, maybe crime does pay," she said.

I was a big boy then but even so I wept a couple of tears over those strike outs. Edtrle Wouldn't Draw In swimming we had Gertrude Ederle, the first woman ever to swim the English channel. She is around, and well, but she could not draw a big hand. In basketball there have been many great players. But you don't hear much about them after they leave school.

And before the tingle had left the spine, the whistle blew and away went Red against the whole Michigan team. When he arrived across the enemy goal, there wasn't a Michi gan man on his feet.
