This is the story related by State Police Sgt. Bill Hazlewood: Cliflord Kocnig. of Salem, an em ploye of the traffic division of the State Highway Department, lound Ihe unusual cache in a litter bar rel along Highway 97 five miles south of Sand Creek. Koenig alerted stale police and waited until an officer came. They examined their find, which includ ed two brief cases filled mostly with neat files of letters addressed lo Easton and written by credit managers of some of the nation's swankiest hotels. They all wanted Easlon to pay his bills or rather pay them again with good checks. One file requested Easton to please make good a $1,400 bill for renting a yacht, and paying cater er's and orchestra fees. In addition to the brief cases filled with this intriguing material, Koenig had found boxes of clothing that included three or four pairs of expensive slacks, suits, a topcoat, 30 handkerchiefs and the 25 or more ties. Hazlewood said (he lind, appar ently deposited by Easton in an attempt to conceal identity, was re turned to state police headquarters here. That was Tuesday. That evening Officer William Rand heard Easton's name on a police broadcast from Eugene. Eas ton, it said, was wanted in Santa Monica, California, for jumping $10,000 bond on a forgery charge. His car was described. Thinking Easlon may have been in Klamath Falls, police began looking for him. About 9 that night they found his car in a downtown filling station. But no Easton. The station attendant said Eas ton had been there all right, but had paid him to drive him to the airport that day. At the airport West Coast Airlines officials said Easton had boarded a plane for Portland. But he didn't get off at Portland, instead made arrangements (by check) to fly on to Sealtle-Tacoma. Police there were alerted, but Eas ton wasn t found. It was learned, however, that he had flown on to Detroit. Detroit was alerted, but that's about all that was heard of Eas ton until police in Minneapolis, Minnesota, reported his arrest Thursday night. Today, Hazlewood said. Easton was on his way back to California with a lot of explanations in his future. .
