Mason City, 3a. 11, W2 IS oi a Showing which way the wind blows Dillinger book Mason City is assured prominent place in a book about to come off the Random House (Bennett Cerf) Press. It's titled "The Dillinger Days" and it will contain a detailed account of the First National Bank holdup here on Jarch 13, 1934. The author, John Toland, and his Japanese bride Toshiko, spent almost a week here in the summer of 1961, ferreting out facts and double-checking for accuracy. Complete documenta tion has been a mark of the Toland books.

A letter from the author brings the information that the upcoming book will appear in condensed form in two issues of LOOK just prior to publication in book form and there's a real possibility that the story will be turned into a movie. "I still remember our fruitful and pleasant stay in Mason City," Toland wrote. "I think this segment of the book will be one of the highlights. I (he had I underlined) certainly enjoyed it, most of all the bank robberies." A point of interest about Toland is that he is a kinsman of the Toland whose mid-western business colleges in the early part of the century included one in Mason City. Our newsroom has had a little tip to the effect that the Joe Reisch auctioneer school which in the past dozen years has drawn students to Mason City from every state and numerous foreign lands is to get a little attention from -Life magazine.
