Indianapolis reports warrants for 57 year old lawyer David L. Probstein, missing seven years, await word from Atty. Gen. Kennedy as prosecutor Bayt prepares to forward them.

Arkin but failing to deliver the property or refunds. Mayor Boswell has begun his own inquiry into how Probstein obtained 12 taxicab licenses for a 1954 cab company start.
