Girl Not in Court
Miss Magill, who, ironically is
expected to be the star witness for
the State, was not in the court
room. She is expected to tell how
Sherman made fervent love to her
on trips home from the factory,
where they both worked, and
breathed threats to "get Alice out
of the way" so that he might
marry her.
AS Judge Hammond. a former
personal friend Of President Cool
idge, took the bench, Prosecutor
Owen A. Hoban read the indict-
ment and moved to impanel the
jury.
1t was then that ]. Fred Humes
and William w. Buckley, of de-
fense counsel, argued and were
denied the motion to quaSh the
panel. Selection of the jury from
a panel of % talesmen began i'm
mediately.
The first juror selected was
Walter B. Greene, of Worcester,
who automatically became fore
man of the group which will de-
eide the former scout-master'S
fate.
Other Jurors Chosen
Leslie Briggs, 40, a clerk. of
Athol, became juror No. 2. Ralph
D. Barr, 48, Worcester engineer,
and Everett J. Condor, 81, a
teacher from Shrewsbury, were
quickly selected as the third and
fourth jurors. Proctor L. Adams.
A, barber, of Millbury, became
the fifth, and Matthew j. Cul-
len, a Rutland farmer, was the
sixth.
The principal point interesting
Judge Hammond apparently was
the prejudices, if any, of the
prospective jurymen and their
feeling about capital punishment.
Several were excused by the court
because of prejudice or because
they opposed capital punishment.
Erven A. Williams, IS, a wire
worker of Worcester, was accepted
as juror number seven.
Louis H. Deitmer, 81, Worcester
machiniSt. was the eighth juror.

"fight it out and stand by their
rights"
McGrady Pleads
This situation developed despite
the presence at the conferences of
Edward F. McGrady, Assistant
Secretary of Labor, as President
Roosevelt's special representative.
He was given full authority TO
speak for the national Administra-
ton and to do all within his power
to prevent a great strike.
McGrady, who was in contact
with the President over the tele-
phone throughout the day, ap-
pealed to the operators and miners
to prevent the walkout. He said:
ut is indefenSible to allow
this strike to start over a couple
of pennies. The strike would
cause untold suffering to two
million five hundred thousand
persons in the families of
miners. The American people
will never stand for it. In the
name of Almighty God, don't
let this strike occur over a few
pennies"
He got his phrase Of "a few
pennies" from Philip Murray, vice
president of the union, who said
the increase sought by the miners
would cost only $4,000 a day
and would hike consumer prices
only a few pennies ton.
Operators Fight
Lewis claimed his hands we're
tied. The order to strike when
the existing wage contract ex'
pired, was issued March 81. Ever
since then it was extended for
various periods.
Finally an extension was
granted until the Guffey-Snyder
bituminouS coal control bill,
which stipulates wage scales and
working hours, was enacted by
Congress.
The last extension was ordered
one week ago with last midnight
the zero hour" unless a new
working contract were negotiated.
The operators are opposing any
increase in wage rates. Some of
them even insisting on the rates
in the expiring contract were too
high.
