BODY OF MAN IS IN SHACK
Theodore Moore Is Found Dead In Shack At Viaduct
The body of a man believed dead for several days was found in a small shack west of the 21st street viaduct late Tuesday afternoon by police.
The man was identified as Theodore "Ted" Moore, 72, former track worker for the Soo and North Western roads who had been unemployed for two years.
A telephone message from the Gust Stolze home, River drive, advised
police that there was a dead man in the shack. Inquiry by the officers brought information from Louis Roedig that the last time Moore was seen alive was Friday, July 19.
Moore was the object of a police probe two years ago when he was picked up on a charge of harboring boys. Brought before the juvenile court Moore was accused of luring boys to his shack and suggesting that they make petty thefts and turn the stolen property over to him. He was released on promise to refrain from the practice.
Coroner Rau, who was called to the scene, decided no inquest was necessary.
Due to the hot weather the body was badly decomposed and it was interred immediately in the potter's field.
Police said they have no records of any close relatives of Moore.
