<( tf»n<iai«i*<l from I'mg* Onei After eliminating every known acquaintance of Miss Short os a suspect, police decided she must have been tortured, mutilated and murdered by a stranger. They knew she was nit
averse to pickups.
“The man we want probably did not even know the girl’s name until after her death. homicide Capt. Jack Donahce told his men. “Check every attempted attack with a view that it is linked to the Short case.” Police abandoned all hope of trying to reach the slay-r through letters and appeals. Letters from the "Black Dahlia avenger'' were flooding police tmd newspaper desks, some from! as far away as El Paso, ~ and the Bronx. One newspap leceived half a dozen in one mn i delivery, one with postage due. All the letters were too obviously the work of pranksters to
