les to be brought to trial on charg-
es ranging from evading taxes on
Ill-gotten' wealth to bank robbery
nnel murder. The other four arc hiH
sons Ralph "Silent Fred" Walter
and "Utile Jake."
The history of the Flenglc fam-
ily since they wore brought into
limelight after the Uinwr kiltlngs
has been confused In a mare of
litigation but In nil except one in-
stance the law Is cloilng slowly in
upon the entire group.
