Winnie Ruth Judd
Believed Dead or
Hiding Near Hospital
Note Left at Home Of
Minister Supports
Suicide Theory
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PHOENIX, Ariz., Dec. 5.-Search-
ers held to the belief today that
Winnie Ruth Judd, mad murderess,
either had taken her own life or was
hiding within a few miles of the Ari-
zona State Hospital, from which she
fled Sunday night for the second
time.
Although admittedly without def
mite clues, officers believed they
were closing in on the blond tigress
who eight years ago killed two wom-
an friends and shipped their bodies,
one of them dismembered, to Los
Angeles in trunks.
Several times since the escape,
posses have raced to spots near the
hospital after reports were received
that Mrs. Judd had been seen. Blood
hounds taken to the scenes were un-
able to pick up the scent, however.
A tip that the murderess was hid
ing in the attic of a church sent
officers, armed with a search war
rant, on a thorough hunt of the
building and grounds, but the quest
yielded no trace of the fugitive.
Fears continued that Mrs. Judd,
desperately unhappy and imagining
herself prosecuted by attendants at
the hospital, might have taken her
own life.
'It's either this or suicide" she
said in note left the Rev. Robert
w. Warren, a friend whose home she
burglarized of food and clothing

In Ruin to Cheer

~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
ROME, Dec 5.-Carabinieri and
other troops blocked today a new
attempt by student groups to stage
an anti-Russian demonstration in
front Of the Soviet Embassy. There
had been demonstrations there Sat-
urday and yesterday.
Hundreds of students marched
through rain-drenched streets, cry
ing, Finland. resist"
Troops blocking off avenues lead
ing to the Russian Embassy forced
the demonstrators to turn back.
Instead of dispensing, the students
marched off through the rain
toward the Finnish Legation to re-
peat sympathetic manifestations of
Saturday and Monday.
Several hundred gray-clad, steel
helmeted soldiers from artillery and
cavalary regiments stood in door,
ways around the Soviet Embassy,
bearing rifles. They were supported
by police squads.
When the marchers approached
the Embassy they poured out into
the rain and with good humor on
both sides persuaded the demon
strators to turn back.
Press Praises Firms.
Unopposed, they moved, 1000
strong, to the Finnish Legation and
there renewed their cries of SYM
pathy for the country whose resist
ance to Red forces, meanwhile, was
being eXhalted in the Fascist press.
The student demonstrators again,
as yesterday, showed their friend
ship for the United States in joint
sympathy with Finland by cheer
ing as they passed the United States
Consulate.
Although Italian newspapers in
dicated the Rome government would
refrain from directly aiding Finland,
authoritative circles confirmed that
the Firms were defending themselves
with Italian-made planes.
They said, however, the planes
were ordered some time before the
Russian invasion.
At the same time, there were in
dications in responsible circles of
Italian readiness to oppose any
Soviet invasion of the Balkans,
which, unlike the Baltic countries
lie within Italy's direct sphere OF
influence
Yelled Warning to Soviet.
II MeSsaggero issued a yelled
warning that Russians keep out OF
the Balkans.
The newspaper said promotion of
Italian economic and political inter-
ests in the Balkans, while keeping
that potential battle-ground at peace,
would harm the interests of neither
Germany nor Russia so long as
third parties did not seek, as might
be the case with Russia, to insert
themselves in that particularly deli
cate zone of Europe to install a po-
litical formula contrary to Euro
pean civilization"
The newspaper also sought to set
at rest any speculation abroad as to
possible friction between Rome and
Berlin over the invasion Of Finland,
saying:
IF the democracies thought to
benefit from the clash of Italy with
other ideologies, they are wrong"
The German Ambassador to
Rome, Hans-Georg Viktor Won
Macksen, was expected in diplo-
matte circles to report on Italy's at
titude in Berlin, where he went yes
terday ostensibly to attend the cele-
bration of his fathers birthday and
Inauguration of the German
italian Cultural Society.
His father, Field Marshal August
Won Macksen, retired, will be 80
years old tomorrow.

And Wild-eyed fans are still talking about last Wednesdays Hammon-Nome baseball game when the surprising Nome team again registered l3 to 12 upset. For seven solid exciting innings spectators sat on the edge of their seats wondering what weird play would next occur. The game was close contest all the way and clever base running on both sides confused the de- fense and kept the large crowd in an uproar.
 The Alaskan-Commercial game although Well-played was almost an anti-climax. The Commercials picked up a substantial early lead and held it to the end. The score was 10 to '.
 Outstanding individual per formances of the evening includ- ed the all-round playing of Ken Rude and the Thousand per cent batting averages of Maynard and Wuorinen.
