George S. Robinson, the committee's Chicago agent, said the group had not planned to come here until later.

He said he expects the Chicago inquiry now will blossom into a full-scale investigation. The committee issued more than a dozen summonses for persons to testify. An authoritative source said they included: Jack Guyzik, John Patton, former "boy major" of Burnham; Tony Accardo alias Joe Batters, former Capone aide; the three Fischetti brothers, Charles, Rocco and Joe, cousins of Al Capone: Phil Katz and Hymie "Loudmouth" Levin.

Investigators surmised earlier that the slayings were not directly related. Drury, a long-time foe of big name gangsters, had offered to testify before the senate committee.

Both Drury and Bas had offered information on underworld activities to John E. Babb, Republican candidate for sheriff. Babb said Bas had submitted one written report on crime to him and was preparing a second. Babb said he was to have conferred Tuesday with Drury on information the former police officer had volunteered. Drury was killed in his garage by four shotgun blasts fired through the windshield of his Cadillac sedan.

The killers either lay in wait or followed his car when he drove into dark alley to his garage. Ironically, Drury was killed while Robinson was trying to contact him to assure him he would be afforded protection. Robinson said Drury telephoned him in alarm last week, saying he learned the Miami Daily News had announced he would reveal "inter- esting things" to the senate committee. Drury asked for a bodyguard. Police and state's attorney's investigators are working together to solve the killings.

A heavy police guard was assigned to protect ex-Police Capt. Thomas E. Connelly, Drury's former partner. Drury and Connelly were kicked off the police force in 1947 after they refused to tell a Cook county grand jury how they dug up evidence in the 1948 gangland slaying of James Ragen, wealthy racing news service publisher. They were accused of conspiracy to bring about indictment of three men as tne slayers.

They blamed their plight on William Tuohy, who then was state's attorney. They said Tuohy "bulldozed" them because they once arrested Jack Guzik, reputed head of the old Capone crime syndicate's gambling operation and was trying to "railroad" them out of service. Tuohy now is a judge. They lost a court fight for reinstatement and Drury finally became a private detective. The former police lieutenant supplied editor Jack Lait of the New Tork Daily Mirror and Lee Mortimer, Mirror columnist, with Information for their book, "Chicago, Confidential." The Chicago Tribune said Lester Velie received information from Drury for a current article in Collier's magazine on Chicago underworld figures and politicians.

Andrew Aitken, chief of detectives, ordered all known hoodlums picked up for questioning in the Drury slaying.
