HUNTERDON COUNTY COURT
HOUSE, Pennington, N. j., Feb.
8.-(UP).-The best friend Isl
dor Fisch ever had came into
court yesterday and gave sullen,
reluctant testimony in behalf Of
Bruno Richard Hauptmann.
1t was hard to tell where the
sympathies of Henry Uhlig rested
in this strange courtroom combat
between the quick and the dead
Hauptmann and Fisch,
each irving to blacken the other
with the guilt of the Lindbergh
crime.
Uhlig smiled at Hauptmann as
he pushed through the throng
and up to the shaky oaken wit
ness chair. He had been Haupt-
mann's friend, too, in the days
before the carpenter showed one
ransom bill too many at Bronx
tradesman.
But five minutes after Uhlig
began testifying, Edward J. Reil-
ly, chief defense counsel, looked
up to the judges bench and said:
"Your honor, this man is a
hostile witness"
In a sense, he was. he and
Reilly were exchanging angry
words. Uhlig's face was crimson
with rage and once he shouted

lawyer. 1t sounded more like
searching cross-examination than
it did like direct testimony from
witness who appeared here, in
obedience to a subponea issued
by defense lawyers who expected
him to help save their client from
the electric chair.
Uhlig's loyalty seemed to be
divided between Fisch and Haupt-
mann. His testimony came curt
and clear, and, unlike most Of
