Miss Catherine Cooper Reardon

ton Cathedral, filed notice yester-

witnesses and admitting into evil
dence a wooden club, claimed by the
Government to have been the mur-
der weapon. The attorney also as
serted Fishers oral confession was
improperly obtained because police
had not advised the defendant of
his constitutional rights ;tefore
questioning him.
