Kidnapped Willie Whitla Reunited With Father in Cleveland
Little Willie Whitla, kidnapped from Sharon Po, was returned to his father at the Hollenden hotel in Cleveland at 8:30 PM after two local boys recognized him on a streetcar. The boy was guided to the hotel by the conspirators and by fellow youngsters, exchanging disguises and a transfer slip before the reunion. Father Whitla, guarded by detectives, thanked the press and police and expressed relief and gratitude.
