so new TALESMEN
CALLED IN nine CASES
CBy United Press)


MARION, ILL.,, Dec. 4.-Circuit court
recovered here today in the first Her
rim massacre trial with so new tales
men present for examination.
The prospective jurors, the major
ity of whom are farmers, wire sum-
moned during the long adjournment of
court since last Wednesday. Both
state and defense attorneys were ex-
pected to drive the veniremen through
rapid grilling in an attempt to COM
plete the jury this week.
The five defendants, accused Of the
murder of Howard Hoffman in the riot
ing at the Lester strip mine last June,
took their places this morning with the
same quiet composure that has marked
their movements throughout the pro-
ceedings. Like wax puppets they filed
into their seats and looked at appar.
ent indifference at the new faces of
Williamson county citizens called as
likely material for the jury to try the
case. No sign of emotion was on their
faces-no actions that would betray
their thoughts.
With eight jurors selected and the
state apparently willing to accede to
the defense in taking the lead in the
quizzing, hope prevailed that the jury
would be completed early in the week

room in nearby town said, Unless

should find his recreation" said the
speaker
"The community which is failing to
care for the eight hours of leisure
each of its members has each day is
paying for its neglect In cash and char
