Convict Recaptured In Woman's Clothes
In Houston on January 3 a young convict fleeing authorities was recaptured after disguising himself in women's clothing and attempting to blend with female patrons at a local bus station. He reportedly wore a sweater and a pair of women's slacks during the arrest and was later identified as Benton. A fellow inmate, Parmond Tompkins, was also involved, with notes of prior confinement and a brief escape before surrendering to officers. Texas City is mentioned in passing regarding local industrial activity.
