MEN FREED AFTER TRIAL CELEBRATE
"Shame Suicide" Acquittal
 PleaseS MeXiCanS

Tijuana, Lower Cal, July 31 CP- The acquittal of former Chief of Police Zenaido Llanos and three other residents of Tijuana of charges or having drugged and attacked Clyde and Audrey Peteet here last February, was the signal for an in- formal celebration last night when the jury returned a verdict after deliberation for about two hours.
 The alleged attack resulted in the | suicide of Thomas Peteet. his wife and their daughters at San Diego after the family had visited the Mexican race track town. The basis for the charges was contained in death notes left by members of the family.
 Jose Kelly, an investigator for the Mexican Federation of Labor, testi fled at the trial yesterday. that he had investigated the character of the Peteet family at San Diego, Los Angeles and Kansas City, where they had lived. and his investigation disclosed that the young women were indiscreet.
 The immediate aftermath of the trial and acquittal was a round of conjecture among the Tijuana resi- | dents as to how the verdict would be received across the border. The most optimistic of these dis cussions resulted in expressions that United States officials might modify international boundary regulation to permit visitors to remain in Tijuana until late at night as was the practice before the Peteet sui cides.
 Llanos, who was suspended as chief of police as a result of the l charges left for Calexico, Cal, where he has made his home. Luis Amador, codefendant with Llanos, announced that he intended to re- | main in Mexico.
 United States authorities have been eager to take Amador since he jumped his bail several years ago while he was under charges of sell ing narcotics.

WELDING THEORY CHANGED

As a result of experimental work with atoms of hydrogen the theory of welding may be revolutionlzed. The idea behind the experiments is to pass the hydrogen atoms through an electric arc which produces a flame vastly hotter than the acety- lene torch heretofore principally used for welding. By getting this heat welding of ordinary materials will be possible it is said, that will make the welded portions as strong as one original piece. If the experi- mcnts are developed commercially 1t may mean the passing of riyetine to a large extent.
