Arrest Woman Accomplice At Bier of Robber Lover
Louise Magness remains in Travis county jail awaiting extradition to New Orleans to face Canal Street robbery charges linked to Jack Smith the late former Austin football star. Smith was shot by an Oklahoma City detective after a span of criminal activity and was slated for a funeral that was postponed to later today.

State Rangers arrested Magness at the funeral home and held her under orders of Ranger Captain Frank Hamer with John Hornsby granted access as attorney. The Austin Statesman later reported Magness had been taken from jail and delivered to Ranger Jim McCoy, though McCoy was unavailable.
