Died. Tom Mix, 60, oldtime cinestar of 370 Western films; instantly, when his car turned over near Florence, Ariz. Pennsylvania-born (but publicized as Western-born, Indian-blooded), he rough-rode with Colonel Theodore Roosevelt through the Spanish-American War, did not go West until he was 26, joined famed Miller Brothers' 101 Ranch in Oklahoma. He soldiered in the Philippines, Boer War, China's Boxer Rebellion, returned to become a Texas ranger. Hired by the old Selig movie company to supply horses, extras, atmosphere while on "location," Mix soon passed to stardom and a pedestal as U. S. boyhood's Hero No. 1. In the films he could never smoke, always married a schoolteacher or rancher's daughter, never dallied saloonwards except to shoot villains fairly. In 1932, rolled on and badly injured by Tony the Wonder Horse, Mix (who was only a fair horseman) retired, was last week advance-agenting a circus when his car pitched at a highway detour, rolled on him.
