Ray Aiken and Art Macken. all of Tulelake. had been ransacked sometime during the first of June. The extent of the damage is not known as yet, because it has been impossible to contact the latter two. It was disclosed that the house-breakers, still unknown to authorities, had occupied the Osborne home on June 1, 2. 3 and 4, after breaking into the other cabins. In the cabin were found all types of canned goods, dishes and cooking utensils which had been taken from the other summer homes. A boat and fishing equipment belong ing to Aiken had also been used during the four-day sojourn. A portable phonogranh and a new album of records, believed to belong to the intruders, were also found. In the record album was a sales slip from Meier and Frank in Portland, dated June 2. ' Howard Sherman, owner of the Crescent Lake store, who is building a home next to the one occupied by Osborne, reported that on the night of June 4 he saw a car stuck on the hill above Osborne's cabin. Think ing that some friends had been spending a few days there, he waited in order to help them out. When the men appeared they accepted his offer to pull them onto the road, and while near the car, he happened to notice the name on the registra tion certificate, thereby giving the police a clue as to the iden tity of the men. State police and the sheriffs office are investigating the case today. with them."
