ACCOMPLICE OF ALLEGED HOTEL THIEFSOUGHT Quiz Monticello Youth for Burglary: Companion Makes Getaway. While Martin D. Dyer, 19, Monticello, Ind., today was questioned by detectives concerning the $4.93 holdup of the Seminole hotel, 920 North Alabama street, Tuesday night, police searched Indianapolis for his alleged companion. Dyer and Motorcycle Policeman A. B. Thompson, the officer who arrested the pair for speeding shortly after the robbery, identified Dyer's accomplice as William Hickman, Dartmouth apartments, 215 East Michigan street. Hickman's mother told police her son left home after dinner Tuesday night and has not returned. Dyer and Hickman are said by police to have lured J. F. Tracey, 1902 West Ohio street, night clerk, into one of the hotel rooms under pretext that they wished to inspect it before registering. In the room, Tracey said, one drew a gun and ordered him to remain quiet for ten minutes. When Tracey escaped to the lobby several minutes later he found it deserted and the cash drawer rifled. For almost half an hour he was too frightened to act. Then a guest of the hotel phoned police. While emergency squads were investigating, Thompson forced a stolen sedan driven by the youths to the curb on West Washington street after a sixty-mile-an-hour pursuit for several blocks. While searching Dyer the companion escaped. Both had been drinking, Thompson reported and he said he found a pint of alcohol in the car. According to Police Chief Claude Worley, records reveal that Dyer
