NEWSPAPERMAN'S TIP
BRINGS ABOUT ARREST
Companion of MacDon
ald Says Extortion Plot
Partner Admitted Act
NASHVILLE, Tenn.—(AP)—The
admission of a youth held. for ex
tortion that he was Balfe McDon
ald, 17, of Flint, Michigan, hunted
since his mother was found slain
nearly two weeks ago, brought
Michigan officers hurrying here to
take charge of him and a com
panion Friday.
RBoth MacDonald, who denies he
killed his mother but says an ar
gument with her led him to run
away, and his companion, William
Terwilliger, 16, also of Flint, were
charged by Nashville police with
murder and with being fugitives
from justice.
Mrs. MacDonald was found dead
in bed at her home May 27. Her
head had been crushed by blows
from heavy book-ends and her son
was missing. MacDonald and Ter
williger were arrested here a week
ago on charges of mailing extor
tion notes to Nashville business
men but gave their real names
only Thursday when they pleaded
guilty on arrangement before a
United States commissioner in the
extortion case.
Notified Officers
A newspaperman recognized
MacDonald’s name and notified
officers., The youth at first denied
Ihls identity but later admitted he
was the young man sought.
l “That's me chief,” he said when
Elkin Lewis, head of the city de-
Itegtive department, showed him
clippings describing his mother's
death and the seirch for the son.
“I knew they wanted me but was
scared to go back. I didn't kill
her though. 1 couldn't prove I
didn't and I couldn’'t clear myself.
That's why I didn't go back.”
Lewis said Terwilliger, however,
told him Balfe had admitted strik
ing his mother with a book-end
as they read a story in Toledo,
Ohio, about her death.
