For Two DC. Youths
Facing Execution
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BESSEMER, Ala, April 6.-Daniel
Reedy, 10, and Joe Hockenberry, 81,
of Washington. faced a sentence of
death in the electric chair on con-
Iviction last night of charges of
criminally attacking a Birmingham
matron February IL.
Judge Gardner Goodwin said fol-
lowing the report of the jury last
night that he would formally SEN
tence the youths Saturday. The
Circuit Court jury fixed the death
penalty after deliberating approx
mately three and one-half hours.
Defense Attorney Frank Ball said
an appeal would be taken. In ad-
dition, death sentences in Alabama
are subject by law to review by the
State Supreme Court.
Mrs. Hockenberry Testifies.
Reedy and Hockenberry were tried
Jointly on charges of assault and
robbery in connection with the alb
duction of Mrs. John L. Brasher, 81,
wife of filling station operator, as
she walked out of a Birmingham
restaurant while her husband paused
to pay the check.
The public was excluded from the
courtroom during the trial which
opened Monday and newspaper re-
porters also were requested to leave
during Mrs. Brashear's testimony.
The only defense witness actually
to take the stand was Mrs. Grace
Hockenberry, Washington, mother
of Joe Hockenberry. She testified
yesterday that her son had been
"a serious problem child" since he
was IA and that he had been in
volved in series of encounters with
the law before his arrest here.
Dispositions Placed in Evidence.
The defense also placed in eW-
dence dispositions by three Wash
ington psychiatrists, DR.. Edgar
Griccin of St. Elizabeth's and DR..
Amino Paretti and DR.. Joseph L.
Gilbert of Gallinger, in support of
the defendants plea of innocence by
reason of insanity. The dispositions
agreed In substance that the youths
were abnormal, but disagreed as to
the extent of the alleged abnorman-
ties and also as to the responsibility
for their actions.
Five confessions detailing actions
of the pair since their escape from
Gallinger Hospital February / until
their arrest were introduced by the
prosecution. The signed statements
said both defendants attacked Mrs.
Brasher and that they then left
her for dead in a field near here.

but were in no way prepared for the
deluge of the past week.
Ordinarily there are approximately
200 copies of The Republican sold
at the Hamill book store. A call
was sent in Thursday evening for
moro papers and an additional 100
were sent to the store; then another
call Friday morning for more. Gus
toners in the meantime were swarm
ing in The Republican office for more
papers.
With the press run standing at
$50 the forms were removed. but
by the time they had been taken to
the second floor. or composing room.
the calls became so numerous that the
editors condensed al the storm news
and pictures into two pages and $50
additional specials" were printed
on the smaller press in the composing
room, None Of these specials remained
after Monday evening,
So all in all there were 4,160 copies
of The Republican containing the
storm news, of which number 600
were sold at the HamIl store and the
rest mailed out to our regular sub
srlbers.

Many Vacationers
Now at Deep Greek

Deep Creek Lake. 10 miles north
Of Oakland, has all the appearance of
a vaCationist's paradise, part of it due
perhaps to the opening Of the bass
season last Saturday.
Three day tourist fishing licenses
which cost S1.75 have been selling in
a lively manner and 800 licenses were
sold in a three day period by Elmer
Haulenbcek, warden at the lake.
Good catches of black and rock
bass, crappics. catfish and bluegill
have been reported by anglers.
Some restrictions have been lifted
on gasoline for motorboats and AS q
consequence many motorboats are
back on the lake, reminding people
somewhat of pre-war DAYS.
Reservations at practically all of
the lake cabins and cottages have
been filled and privately owned cot
tsCes are mostly al occupied,
Oakland streets have been filled
with strangers, many of whom are
from the lake section.
Quite a number of people are also
