In Rockford Illinois on July 24 police found two sticks of dynamite wire of the kind used in the bomb that killed Vernon Plager last week and twelve percussion caps in the basement of the rooming house where Paul Reed twenty four lived before his arrest for the slaying. Reed faces formal charges with arraignment set for today along with a bed roll and food and a claimed camping plan. Plager was killed when the starter of his car exploded from a wired bomb.
