FBI Nabs Thief
15 Hours Affer
Crime Occurred
NEW YORK, Feb. 27—(AP)—
An armed ex-convict accused of a
$19,628 Los Angeles bank robbery
flew into New York Tuesday and
was seized by the FBI within 15
hours ester the crime, Agents said
they trailed him through “bait
money” taken ni the holdup.
“dward Scheidt, special agent
o’ the Federal Burezu of Investi
gation, identified the suspect as
John Richard Bayless who had
served time at Alcatraz prison for
a Mansfield, 80., bank robbery,
Scheidt said Bayless used
m._ney taken in the robbery to
buy a Trans World Airlines ticxet
to New York. Part of it, the FBI
said, was “bait money, the num
erals of which had been recorded.
Bank tellers were under instruc
tions to pass over these bills along
with other currency in the event
of a holdup.
“The FBI said Bayless had about
$2.000 of the bait money in his
possession when he was arrested.
Bayless is accused of entering
the Hollywood branch of the Bank
of America in Los Angeles at 10:30
a. m. Monday and, at the point of
the gun, taking $19,628.61.
He was carrying a .38 caliber
Smith and Wesson revolver in his
belt and attempted to use it when
he stepped off the plane, Schpidtl
said.
The FBI chief said Bayless had |
the gun partly out of his belt
when agents who had been wait
ing at the top of the ramp, near
the plane, seized him and pinned
his arms to his side.
Scheidt said Bayless was carry- |
ing the bank loot in a cowhide |
brief case. I
Brilliant Police Weork .
Brilliant police work led to
Bavless' quick arrest.
,He was already flying to New
York before police learned that an
airline reservation had been mage
for a man giving the name of
Bennett, an alias used by Bayless,
¢=d -ane in the name of Bayless.
The Bennett reservation was can
celled. ¢
The trans-world Airlines flight,
which had made stops at Phoenix,
Ariz.; Chicago and Dayton, Ohio,
was already on its last leg t 6 New
York when the FBI wa snotified.
The G-men contacted the air
line and Bayless description was
raaioed to the plane as it flew
over Pittsburgh—an hour out of
New York.
The pilot, Capt. B. K. Stuessi,
37, of Kansas City, Mo., passed
the word to the hostess, Jeri Starr,
21, of Kansas City. She spotted
the passenger in seat No. 6 and
gave a description of him to the
captain. The plane then was only
20 minutes out of La Guardia
Field and the hostess had instruct- |
ed passengers to fasten their seat
belts for a landing.
The decription of the man in
seat No. 6 was radioed to the FBI
and double checked.
When the plane put down the
G-men were waiting, |

Andrew, and Carroll Conroy is
convincing in both settings. Feste,
as a professional jester, must suit
nili.msel! to everyone’s mood, and
s 0 he must sing love-songs for the
Duke, exchange delicate banter
with Olivia and Viola, and join
the two knights in their fine ses
sion of drunken caterwauling. Mi
chael Sinclair’s excelient stage
presence is adequate for the de
mands of the role. Even his sing
ing—through it would not have
satisfied an Elizabethan audience
—is more convincing than that
usually heard from Shakespearian
actors.
Malvolia lives in a world of his
own pompous imagining, and his
utter lack of humor enables the
humorists of the play to victimize
him in a fashion which would be
brutal if he had not asked for it.
It is a tribute to Bob Charles’ por
trayal of the character that the
audience has no sympathy for
Malviolio, outrageously treated
though he is.
Elizabethan Setting
The Elizabethan seiting once
again proves its usefulpness in this
production. Gay Dangerfield's cos
tumes appeal to the eye so that
the lack of conventional scenery is
hardly noticed, and the fact that
the play can run continuously,
without awkward pauses for scene
shifting, contributes greatly to the
effect of speed, lightness, and fan
tasy. Furthermore, since we allow
no time for mechanical adjusty
m.ents, we have more time for the
play. Thus it is possible to present
the full play as it was written by
Shakespeare (who was an actor),
rather than one of the mutilated
curtailments of the play which,
ironically, are Kknown as acting
versions.”
So the use of the FElizabethan
stage turns out to be, not a piece
of antiquarian scholarship, but an
essential help in making Mr. Bal
lew's production what “Twelfth
Night” is supposed to be—an ex
cellent evening's light entertain
» ment.

TV GROWING PAINS
LOS ANGELES —(AP)— What
television needs most today is an
adult audience willing to help TV
through its childhood and adoles~
cense.
So says Jack Morrison, lecturer
in theater arts at the University
of California. Adults should be
selective about their programs and
should let the sponsor know by
mail which shows they like, says
Morrison.
As a last resert representative
organizations can ask the Federal
Communications Commission for
consumer hearings on television
content matters.
