TULSA, Feb. 3—Police Thursday hunted a dark-haired woman who
was with a Kansas City salesman at a Vinita, Okla., tourist
court shortly before he died—apparently of poisoning.
The woman disappeared after notifying the operator of the
court that Alvin A. Irwin, 49, with whom she had registered
as husband and wife, was sick.
Irwin, who was employed by the Trailett Manufacturing Co. of
Kansas City died in an ambulance on the way to a hospital
here. An autopsy revealed traces of poison.
The victim, explaining the hunted woman was not his wife,
asked the court operator to notify his wife in Kansas City
that he was sick.
County Investigator Brick Fowler said the woman being sought
is about 29, and is believed to be a Tulsa resident.
