 Burns, according to the police, acted very queerly all during the time he was confined at police he Idquarters and they suspect that he is mentally weak. Mo- Cormlck. who is a strapping sailor over , six feet in height, presented very dis orderly appearance when aTraigned be- fore the court
 The police state that Mccormick was planning to desert from the submarine 1 base and that he and Burns. who desert- cd from the navy some time ago, had planned the assault of last Saturday to get money enough to make "a big jump" Both defendants entered pleas of guilty to the charge of assault with intent to Kill.
