THIRD WAN TRIAL
GETS UNDER WAY
Gordon and Lambert Make
Opening Statements-EW-
denCe Is introduced.

The third trial of ZianC sun Wan.
the Chinese student charged with the
murder of Ben Sen WI. an under
secretary at the Chinese Educational
Mission i'm 1919, was actually started
TODAY followin" the completion of the
Jury late yesterday afternoon. tmted
States Attorney Gordon made the
opening statement for the prosecution
in which he outlined what the Gov
ernment expects to prove concern
ing the tragedy now more than
seven years old and on which the
Government will rely to convict the
accused.
Attorney Wilton J. Lambert sprung
surprise on the prosecution by max
ing an opening statement for the de-
fense at the conclusion of Maj. Cor
don't statement. At the second trial
Mr.. Lambert reserved his statement
until the Government had placed all
it's testimony before the jury. Being
now in possession of the evidence Of
fered at that trial, counsel for the de
fense told the jury his view or the CIR
cumstances relied on by the Govern
ment for conviction. and pointed out
that some other person or persons
might inst as well have committed
the homicide as Wan.
The Jury, according to counsel for
the defense, will now have both views
in mind as the testimony. is introduced
and will be able to weigh how much
each circumstance might apply TO an
other person as we'll as to the accused
Chinese. The defense as outlined by
Lambert was similar to that put for
ward in the second trial and amounts
to an alibi. He contended that at the
time of the killing Wan is shown
by the record to have been at the
Harris Hotel.
The Introduction of Government
testimony was started this afternoon.
Trial Jury Completed.
Shortly before 5 o'clock yesterday
afternoon the jury was completed

challenges and the defense had eXer
cised 49, challenges. A total of 904
