Summer Homes
Said Ransacked
State police today reported
that three summer homes at
Crescent Lake belonging to
Edgar Osborne. 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.
