She has been charged with embezzling $800,000 in the last fiv years. Miss Mangum, a "generous and kindly" Sun day school teacher, was ar rested after a month of audit ing of her multi-millionedollar records as secretary-treasurer of-the Commonwealth Build ing and Loan Association. Device on Plane Declared To Be Soldering Healer Pittsburgh U.R) A small device found , aboard a TWA airliner, which touched off a full-scale sabotage investigation and puzzled some of the nation's leading explosives experts, to dayturned out to be a harmless soldering iron heater. The Civil Aeronautics Auth ority, a special Army ordnance unit and the FBI tested and re tested the "minute missile" for hours, but could not identify it. The mystery finally was solv ed by Robert Woods, a TWA radio maintenance man here whasaw a picture; of the mech anism in a Pittsburgh newspaper- r- Woods ended the frenzied in vestigation by telling the experts the "mysterious" apparatus was merely a self-contained heater for a soldering iron. "There probably would have been no danger if it had been detonated in some way," Louis Reinbold, a CAA official said. "It may have been in the plane for a long time after Emergency radio repairs were made." Reinbold and his assistants took th same precautions "as if the mechanism were a time bomb." The object was discovered by Capt. Lyle Ryan after his plane carrying 32 passengers had left Columbus, Ohio, on a Chicago to Washington, D.C. flight Tues day. The cylindrical mechanism", about 2V inches long and about of an inch in diameter, was removed at Ohio County Airport at Wheeling, W. Va., and Army bomb disposal experts were call ed to investigate. ilia Bank Robber Pleads Guilty Portland ftj.R) Tilman B.
