Said They Sought Phelps.
The State charges that these three
officers fired upon an automobile oecu-
pied by Kendrick and two other young
men. Paul Phelps and Sterling Dutton,

that they were seeking Phelps upon IN

forma ton that he was mtoXlcdteu
Both men denied knowledge Of Ken

the trial have contended that they did
not see him in the automobile. Nc
Reynolds testified that he did not flre,
but that one or both of the other ON

The court instructs the Jury Mat If
Phelps, on the night of May 9, was

in view of previous convictions and 1t
was the right and duty OF the ofacers
to arrest him with or without warrant

IF the killing of Phelps would have
been Justified, the killing OF kendrick
