Seek Hijackers In Last Frontier Oil Country
A large search party of rangers border patrolmen and 100 men comb the Trans Pecos oil country for P O Den Ver Blackie Burcham restaurant owner missing since last week. A youth called The Blue Punk claims a hijack revenge for a half million dollar liquor cargo stolen Friday. Evidence at a desert water trough suggests Burcham bound, attacked, perhaps chained then escaped. The Winkler county frontier, near El Paso, hosts lawmen with famed nicknames like Toughie Northcutt Rattlesnake Willie Wright Tombstone Smith and others as the hunt expands.
