    House Prowler
Has Record for
Avoiding Jail
Tubby Clark, Slim, Alert,
Shifty, Has Been Often
Arrested but Seldom
Convicted.
Glenn (Tubby) Clark Is not "tubby"
at all.
He is quite the contrary—slim,
alert, shifty—one of the most arrest
'd and least convicted of Omaha po
lice characters, according to Detec
; ives Walter Dlckert and Bob Dono
hue, who have, they helieve, at last
got him "with the goods.”
Tubby’s police record dates back
to the day* when he was a messenger
hoy. New detectives on the force as
far back as 10 years ago remember
him for his petit larceny “jobs.”
Often “ragged.”
He has been arrested numerous
times as a "vag.” He has been in
police tolls, charged with theft of
automobiles, but usually got clear
nnd never has been convicted for
terms longer than six months In the
court y Jail.
He is known to detectives as one of
the hardest alleged crooks in the city
to catch, and even when caught is
lucky in escaping full penalty of the
crime with which he is charged.
His most prominent escapade was
nlleged complicity in rohbery of the
Empress theater three years ago.
when more than $5,000 was taken.
He w-as tried but never convicted on
that charge.
His depredations, say police, are
confined In the main to petty thiev
ery, and since acquiring the drug
habit a short time ago he has been
. under surveillance almost constantly
for thefts from parked autos and
apartment houses.
t aught In the Act.
At one time Motorcycle Sergeant
'leorge Emery and Jasper Kirk lay In
wait and caught him stealing a robe
from a parked car. For that offense
he did a light sentence. His name is
interwoven In almost every type of
petty crime known to police of the
ity. It appears in records of viola
tion of the Harrison act, In those of
he auto theft department, among the
vags" and those held for highway
robbery.
Since his arrest Friday, detectives
say they have recovered more than
^5,000 worth of Jewelry and wearing
apparel stolen by him from apart
ments In the last three months. He
is held In $2,600 bond while hundreds
pass through the chief of detectives'
office and Identify loot recovered.
Ex-Congressman Is

fees In securing compensation for a
disabled soldier. The evidence dis
closed Welty charged $1,200. The

Welty gained public attention sev
eral years ago when he Joined Con
gressman Dial in an effort to unseat
■ fudge Landis from the federal bench
when he was appointe-d baseball com
