YOUTHS TAKEN

OF KIDNAPING
(Continued from Page One)
there, Thomas having served time
In the reformatory on two counts,
one ot malicious mischief and the
other grand larceny. Wood, who
admitted being with Thomas, has
not served time, according to state
police.
Not "Freight Riders"
Thomas, It Is reported, told
state police that he knew both
Durst and Lange and If they
(state police) were looking for
them on freight trains tlint they
were "on the wrong track" be
cause neither of them wore the
"frolght riding" type. Both boys
would, In preference, hold un a
station or persons, Thomas is
quoted as saying and buy railroad
tickets to their destination In
stead' of bumming their way.
Officers had not received ad
ditional information in regard to
the kidnapers Saturday although
they were continuing their search
among the railroads and on the
highways for the two boya pos
sibly headed this way.
A tip from Crescent Lake that
two youths who might answer the
description of Durst and Lange
had been seen on a freight there,
inspired the train searches at
Chiloquln and Klnmath Falls.
The officers found the two youths
who had been seen at Crescent
Lake, but were convinced they are
not the kidnapers.
The youths said they were
on their way from their homes
In Bremerton to Los Angeles
where they wanted to "look
around" and find work.
Officers said that while the
boya In some respects answered
thn descriptions of Durst and
Lange, there were many reasons to
bolleve their story that they were
not the kidnap suspects. Wood,
for Instance, had an operator's 11
couso giving his name. The boys
were unarmed, mndo no attempt
to eacnpe the officers or evade
questions, nnd told a straight
forward story.
Thomna offered the information
that he knew Durst, one of the
sttapocted kidnapers. He said he
nnd Durst were Inmates ot a re
formatory in Washington at the
name time. Durst, he said, left
the Institution some time ahead
ot Thomas.
