SLAYER SEARCH
STILL UNAVAILING
Reward Fund Cher $1,500
Mark as Manhunt
Continues
It has been 26 days since an
unknown assassin emptied his
revolver into the body of O’
Neill’s Police Chief Chet Calkins.
And for 26 days an intensive
'search has been carried out in
pursuit of the mystery slayer.
Holt Sheriff Leo Tomack said
Wednesday the hunt will be
pushed until the killer is found
and convicted.
"We have a feeling that
some people we have question
ed in connection with their
activities the night of the mur
der are not telling us all they
know. We plan to use the lie
detector in some further ques
tioning," Tomjack said.
In O’Neill people generally
have been very helpful to the
authorities thus far. Wild rumors
have been flying outside O’Neill,
however. The Norfolk police
station had an unofficial report
Tuesday the manhunt was over.
inese stones are unrounded
and I don't know how they
started,” Tomjack explained.
“I’ve had all kinds of long dis
tance telephone calls.”
Calkins was murdered in his
cruiser car between 1 and 2 a.m.
on March 7 on Everett street be
tween Third and Fourth. When
the body was discovered it was
initially thought — even by a
physician—that he had died from
natural causes, probably a heart
attack. Later, at the mortuary,
it was discovered he had been
filled with lead from a .32-cali
ibre Colts police positive pistol.
Meanwhile, some real progress
is being made with the Calkins
murder reward fund. The Cham
ber of Commerce is handling the
details. This is the way it works:
Checks for the reward fund are
being made out to the Calkins
murder reward fund, care of the
Chamber of Commerce. These
checks will'be cleared and the
money held for not more than
one year.
The person who contributes
the vital, necessary information
that leads to the arrest and con
viction of the murderer will col
lect over $1,500—and the fund
is still growing.
O’Neill residents won’t forget
the slaying of their police chief
and now, to speed the investi
gation and to speed justice, they
are raising a reward fund.

LIGHT VOTING;
ROADS TOUGH
Holt county’s voters wallowed
through mud and water to go to
the polls Tuesday for Nebraska’s
April fool’s day primary election.
They didn’t vote in great num
bers but they managed to reflect
generally the sentiment of the
state in several important races.
Added to the woes of road con
ditions and cloudy skies were an
unusually long republican ballot
(32 inches, three columns) and
no mean democratic slate.
The voters were confronted
with more names than ever be
fore when they trekked to the
polls Tuesday. That the ballots
were lengthy and cumbersome
is testified by the slowness in
getting reports into the office
of County Clerk Ruth Hoff
man. Heavy exercise of the
write-in" privilege slows tab
ulations.
Emmet precinct, as usual,
was first—about on schedule at
• D;m . 1 a m- only five pre
cincts had been received and
tabulated. During Wednesday
forenoon the balance of the coun
ty s 42 precincts poured in, but
some of the precinct election of
ficials were obliged to travel cir
cuitous routes to reach the Holt
capital because of road condi
tions.
Three outstanding precincts re
ported at 1:15 p.am.
Custer county, also one of Ne
| Prafka s biggest in point of area

Approximately 1,800 republi

O’Neill’s State Sen. Frank
