YOUNG KIRKLAND
 WILL STAKE LIFE
 IN SECOND TRIAL
Former Gary High School Athlete Got Life Sen= tence on First Hearing

Valparaiso, Ind. April 29.--( (UP) Choosing definitely to stake his life against possible freedom rather than accept q life sentence, Virgil Kirkland. former Gary high school athlete, faced his second trial to- day on charges of murdering Arlene braves, his 1S-year-old sweetheart who died after q drinking party last November.
 The youthful defendant, sentenced to life Imprisonment on the count that Miss Draves had died as the re- suit of his hitting her. faced only der by attack and murder by at tempt to attack. Conviction on either count carries a mandatory death penalty in Indiana.
 A panel of 50 men and one wo- man, Mrs Ella Shelburne. w. C. T.. U. worker, was called for prospec- tive jury duty.
 Kirkland was indicted with four other young men on charges of kill ing Miss Draves after her body was carried to a doctor as the climax of q drinking party in Gary on Octo- Der 31, 1890.
 All the youths believed. they said. that the young woman merely had become unconscious from liquor she consumed. When the physician re- ported that the young woman was dead, the youths fled from his office.
 At the first trial the state con tended that Miss Draves died as the result of attacks by Kirkland. while the defense claimed death was caused by n fall. The jury decided Kirkland killed her by hitting her with his fist.
