PERSONALITIES
Save OFFICERS

PHOENIX, Arix.--The murder
trial of Robert Burgunder drew
near its end today, and only in
creased the enigma Of the some
times calm. sometimes weeping
college youth who avows he is
tired of life.
The trial continued after morn
ing recess occasioned by the flu
neral of the wife Of County Attor-
hey Richard Hairless, young prose-
cutor whose personality Bur-
gunder testified deferred the youth
from further murders and suicide.
The trial was expected to reach
the Jury Saturday.
Burgunder admitted that when
Hairless and Sheriff Lon Jordan
came TO johnson City, Tenn, to
return him to Arizona to face trial
for the murders OF Ellis Koury and
Jack Peterson. he had intended to
seize the wheel of their automobile
and force 1t over cliff.
He decided against the plan. he
said, because he liked Hairless and
the cowboy sheriff.

FEC SUSPENDS
RADIO ORDER

WASHINGTON The federal
communications commission today
suspended, pending completion Of
hearings, its controversial rule re-
quiring international broadcasting
stations to transmit only programs
which will promote international
good will, understanding and CO.
operation.
Acting FEC Chairman Thad II.
Brown announced the suspension
as the commission opened hearing
on the rule. sharply criticized by
the broadcasting industry.
Brown said he was suspending
the regulation, which went into ef-
feet May %. because the funda-
mental issues in the controversy
should be considered and dis
cussed without possibility of con-
fusion arising from any ambiguity
in or misinterpretation of language
or phraseology."
Brown denied industry charges
that the rule might lead to censor
ship. Brown said the fundamental
question was whether the regula-
ton was in the public interest,
convenience and necessity re-
quirement of all FEC rules under
the communication act.

II is always better to under
stand all the temptations and pit
falls that lie ahead and prepare
for them than to deny their ex-
istenee and be caught unprepared.
As immaturity is a fundamen-
tai cause of friction and distress
in marriage. it is the immature
individual who must study the
facts and fix his relationship with
them before they become too much
for him.
Success in marriage, like sue
cess in any other human enter
prise, lies largely in the ability
TO understand the relationship of
the individual and all the COM
ponent parts of the activity in
which he is engaged. An artist
must establish the perspective of
his picture before he can paint.
A business man must establish his
perspective in the field in which he
operates before he can make
money. A young married man Cor
woman) must establish the same
experience.
The man Tor woman) who al
lows himself to become attracted
outside his family may do SO for
one of the many reasons-usually
because he Is immature and unable
seriously to perform the duties and
assume the responsibilities Of an
adult.
When he lets that attraction
sweep him off his feet it is be-
cause he has failed TO establish
perspective, has failed to under

for injuries sssertedly sustained
when he slipped on a banana peel.
started Friday in Federal Judge
Leon Yankwich's court here.
The case was brought by John
Hunter. II. Of Olympia. originally
in superior court. and was re-
msnded to the federal district
court.
Attorneys for Hunter contend
that the plaintiff. who appeared in
court on clutches, lost the use Of
both lower legs when he fell in
the Olympia branch of the depart
ment store Nov. Z. 1888. Defend
ants deny responsibility. declaring
that the plaintiffs own negligence
caused the injury in a store in
which no bananas or other produce
are sold.

stray comes unexpectedly and

There are times in all lives

The mature individual understands
that the reactions of married life

interest and affection. He knows
that these do not affect his obli-

MAGNETIC HILL
YARN EXPLODED

LEOMINSTER, Mass. - A high
school principal, with spirit level,
upheld the law of gravity on mag
netcn Leominster hill today.
Dwight w. Davis, head of Leo
minister high school, after several
tests with the level attached to
the running board of his automo-
bile, announced that the hill" up
which cars apparently have been
drawn by some mysterious force,
was actually a downgrade of three
to four degrees.
The whole thing, Davis said, was
an optical illusion"
He exploded the theory of Min
eralogist Roscoe J. Whitney, who
said a natural deposit Of magne-
title lodestone provided the mystery
hill with its motive power.
