SALT LAKE CITY Utah, Jan. 8 (UP) A 14-year-old boy was found chained to a bed today where he had been held prisoner and tortured fo- 10 weeks by

an accused bank rebel'.

Ricky Hcndrivksen was released from t 1 ■ four-foot chain and padlocks which held him to the bed by police who rushed to the address supplied by John D. iiillett, 24. after hours of in-

tensive questioning.

Rickey whs in ‘‘surprisingly good health.” but he told officers that Eillett had beaten him about the face and head with his fists and shoes during the early days of the boy's captivity. Rickey

was kidnaped Oct. 20. The boy was rushed to the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Hendricksen, where his mother burst into tears and swept him into her arms. Billett, who yesterday' robbed $20, 915 from a downtown bank and already was held in lieu of 820,000 bail on that charge, admitted to police that he kidnaped Rickey and subjected the boy to frequent immoral treatment. “This is our Christmas. . . . This our New Year’s. . . This is our holiday,” his mother cried. An electric train was waiting for Rickey along with his pet dog. Rickey said that Billett grabbed him Oct. 20 at the used car lot where both worked.

Tigers Bow To Wabash Squad DePauw’s basketball team took it on the chin again Monday night when their traditional rivals, the Wabash Little Giants defeated the Old Gold, 61 to 57, up at Crawfordsville. It was a typical Wabash-De-Pauw athletic contest, with first one team and then the oilier forging into the lead. The Cavemen. however, were able to cut short a Tiger rally in the closing minutes to win by a fourpoint margin. A bucket by Hany Stewart put tlxe Old Gold ahead, 52-51, late in the fourth quarter. With three minutes remaining, Wabash held a 58 to 54 advantage and the Tigers, who tried valiantly, could not overtake the Little

Giants.

A total of 65 fouls whittled by the officials made something of a parade of Uie game. The Cavemen oulshot the losers from the field, 21-19, and was all even from Uie free-throw line with 19 each. DePauw missed 18 free throws, Wabash lost 15 chances. Kent Guild and Hurry Stewart had 16 points each for the Old Gold. Savanovich collected 14 for

Wabash.

The Tiger B team downed the Little Giant reserves, 56-53, in the preliminary.

servers regard both as darkhorse contenders whose main hope lies in an Eiaenhower-Taft deadlock at the convention.

He refused firmly to take part in such pre-convention activities. The field for such action is limited to only five pther states Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon and Pennsylvania,

(UP) Gen. Dw'ight D. Eisenhower’s political managers proclaimed jubilantly today that they now have all they need to sew up the Republican presidential nomina-

tion.

Eisenhower's public confirmation yesterday that he is a Republican, can be drafted, and will let his name go before the voters in the March 11 New Hampshire pi unary was even more than some of his backers had expected in the way of a green light. It offset any possible dismay over the fact that the general ruled out coming home to take a personal hand in the campaign. Thu opposing forces of Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio conceded privately that Elsenhower’s statement will make it a little harder for them to line up del**gates to the GOP nominating convention next July. But they’] insisted that Taft is still a sure winner. A top-level strategy meeting ot the Tuft forces is expected within a few days to make plu-?s for coping with the changed situation. Up to now Die Taft movement has hanked heavily on uncertainty about Eisenhower's intentions as a persuasive talking point with convention delegates. Taft himself accepted the Eisenhower announcement matter-ol’-factly. Ho said he figured all along ho would have opponents
