HUNT CITY’S WEST SIDE ‘TOUGH GUY’ AS LINGLE KILLER

LINK TO DEATH GASE CLIMAXES VARIEDJJAREER Four Other Murders Tied on Ted Geisking by Police Charges. ONCE GUARD OF MORAN Always on Pay Roll of Some Gang or Hijacking Outfit for Last Five Years. Indiana'.', most notorious hijacker and gunman, Theodore (Ted) Geisking, 27, a product of Terre Haute and West Indianapolis, is the object of a nation-wide search today, wanted as the alleged slayer of Alfred (Jake) Lingle, Chicago Tribune reporter. He is believed to have escaped from federal and Kentucky authorities when three of his pals were arrested for hijacking 2,000 pints of liquor from a rum runner's truck Saturday at London, Ky. The others, all from Indianapolis, are held. .Geisking has worked out of Indianapolis for the last five years, always, police say, on the pay roll of some gangster or hijacking outfit. The hunt for him as Lingle's slayer started after tentative identification of photos and Chicago police came to Indianapolis and began their search. Indianapolis police, working with the Chicago investigators, immediately began to harass known acquaintances of the gangster. Talked With Cop They drove the streets in police cars and peered at hoodlums congregating on west side streets. Shortly before they openly began their search for the alleged murderer, a police officer was said to have talked with Geisking on Belmont avenue. This resulted In the district being combed day and night. Bootleg joints were closed and others were closed voluntarily by bootleggers who decided “to go fishing.” Geisking is not liked by majority of the west side hoodlums and booze sellers, although most of them have bought liquor from him for years. He is the “tough guy” of the west side and most of his coworkers give him a wide berth. Geisking dodged in and out of Indianapolis while the search was on, but is said to have spent most of his time in a river camp near Evansville. He never delivered the liquor manufactured by him or his gang, but made his trips to various parts of Indiana to “knock off” loads. AH From Hijacking Practically all the booze he rought into Indianapolis came from hijacking raids he led, police believe. Three weeks ago, several west side bootleggers owed him for loads brought before the search started. He told them he would return for the money and that he wanted the cash because he * would be in a hurry.” He came through Indianapolis a few days later, took the money and disappeared, police learned. At the time of the slayings of Lingle and Jack Zuta, Chicago'gangsters, Geisking was not in his familiar haunts. It is alleged he made the trip to Wisconsin and engineered the slaying of Zuta because he was “thrown over” on the price for shooting the reporter Zuta was alleged to have offered him SIO,OOO for the killing, $5,000 of which was paid. Geisking also is wanted for the killing of William Simons. Chicago Board of Trade member, whose body was found near his Kentland (Ind.) home several months ago. This was believed to have been a “mistake murder,” Geisking having been hired to murder an enemy of Zuta. Orlando Horton, “lone wolf” bootlegger and hijacker, who was shot near Lafayette, and “Kentucky” Hall, who died of gunshot wounds

Indiana Boy Amazes Mother “Jimmie’s stomach was often upset and he suffered a lot from colds.” says Mrs. Louis Vaughn, 247 So. Randolph St., Indianapolis. “He was feverish and his breath was bad. I found he was constipated. “My mother used California Fig Syrup with us, so I decided to give Jimmie some. It surely surprised me to see how quickly it stopped his feverishness, cleared his breath and tongue, regulated his bowels; made him a strong and energetic boy again.” The quick, safe w r ay to cleanse and regulate the bowels of bilious, headachy, constipated children is with California Fig Syrup. Give it at the first sign of bad breath, coated tongue, listlessness or feverishness. Every child loves its rich, fruity flavor and it acts without griping or discomfort. Appetite is increased by its use; digestion is assisted: weak stomach and bowels are given tone and strength. For fifty years, doctors have endorsed this pure, vegetable product. The genuine is always marked by the w’ord California. Look for that when buying or you may get an imitation. tAXATIVC-TONtC for CMItPRCN

Lingle Murder Suspect

.

Theodore (Ted) Geisking, Indianapolis west side “tough guy” and possessor of a checkered hijacking career and killing record, today was the object of a nation-wide search as the paid slayer of Alfred (Jake) Lingle, murdered Chicago Tribune reporter. Geisking, credited with at least three murders, is believed the fourth member of a hijacking quartet who escaped London (Ky.) police after two Indianapolis rum runners had been held up and robbed of 2,000 pints of whisky.

in St. Vincent’s hospital May 31, were victims of Geisking’s paid shootings, police alleged. Zuta and Geisking first met when Zuta was pay off man for the “Bugs” Moran gang in Chicago, and Geisking, after a few years of Terre Haute gang work, wanted to show Moran how tough he was. Moran put him on the “working crew.” guarding booze shipments snd hijacking. Moran thought a lot of the Indianapolis gangster and protected him in every instance where it seemed probable that he might be apprehended. “Wanted Ted Cjpar” On more than one covoy trip Moran is said to have told Geisking’s partners to “take a rap if you have to, but let Ted clear, because there’s plenty of heat under him.” In other words, Moran kept him working, but didn't want him nabbed and his past record bared. Geisking is feared by gangsters in Indiana. He has the reputation of being a rum runner who will hijack a runner and then sell the liquor to the bootleggers who ordered it originally. He is a rat-like fighter, sneaking up on his victim or fleeing when the “drop” is on him. lie’ll shoot when he’s in a corner, but until then he’ll flee or take his prey unawares, police declare.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

CRIME GROUP'S REPORT SCORED AS IMPRACTICAL Fifield Demands Wardens Be Included in Safety Department. | While members of the state crime ■ commission met at the statehouse ■in secret session today to discuss ' their new executive committee report. It was assailed by department heads as being both unfair and impractical. Charge of unfairness came from Secretary of State Otto G. Fifield. He based it on the recent change In the original report which would leave the state game wardens out of a proposed department of safety. Chairman J. A. Van Osdol of the commission contended in presenting the new report to Governor Harry j G. Leslie Saturday that the departi ment of safety and a state judicial • council are the high points for legislative action. Wants Wardens In “I favor a department of safety with the game wardens and all other state employes with police powers being included,” Fifield de- ; dared. “Surely no favorites should be played in determining anew governmental policy. We do not need a department of safety and a safety commission to handle only my forty state police and the criminal identification bureau. The game wardens were withdrawn from the proposed department set-up after objections to their inclusion by Attorney Leo M. Rappaport, member of the crime commission and brother-in-law of Director Richard Lieber of the state conservation department. Game wardens now function under Lieber. Board of Four Members As discussed today, the commission report on a safety department would include a bi-partisan board of four members to have charge of all police and deputy sheriff licensing, the state police, criminal identification bureau, arson investigators and oil inspectors. Since arson investigation now is financed by insurance fees as part of the state fire marshal’s functions, State Fire Marshal Alfred E. Hogston declared it is unlikely that this would be done, if they are removed to a department of safety. Dr. Wiliam F. King, director of the state health department, stated that transfer of the oil inspectors from his office to a safety department might be all right if it was “a safety department.”
