Double Jeopardy Plea
In Taxi Death Denied

Judge Walter J. Casey yesterday
overruled a motion claiming double
jeopardy in negligent homicide
case against Ernest F.. Lee, cab driv-
er, charged in traffic death of Pc
destrian last month.
The case now is set for Municipal
Court jury trial on July 26, with
the defendant free under $1,000
bond.
John M. McInerney argued his
client would be subjected to double
jeopardy because evidence in the
negligent homicide case would nee
essarily be the same as the evidence
used against Lee to obtain convic-
tions in two previous traffic cases.
Lee, who Is "a and lives in the $500
block of Fairfield drive, Bethesda.
Md, was fined $75 last month for
failing to give full attention to driv-
ing and for leaving after an acci-
dent.
Countering defense arguments,
Assistant United States Attorney
Richard F. Roberts declared addi-
tional facts must be proved in the
existing charge.
All the charges arose from the re-
cent death of Arno Teumer. 81, OF
the 28OO block of Twenty-seventh
street NV, struck by Lees cab at
a downtown intersection on March z.

consideration plan to put the
Bell Vocational High School into

down the Corcoran Elementary
School, Twenty-eighth street. be-
tween M and Olive streets NV. In
addition it decided not to consider
the closing of any elementary
schools in the next few years be-
cause of rising elementary school
enrolment here.
The Corcoran school was sched-
uled to be abandoned on June 30
as an economy measure.

tanning Powell as a junior high
school,
Under the plan, Powell students
would be sent to nearby Mcfarland,
Gordon and Langley Junior High
Schools, which have "ample room"
for them, DR.. Corning said.
The school superintendent gave
as his reason for requesting the
change in the plans for Bell the
decline in enrolment in Junior high
school pupils in the Northwest sec
ton. Enrolment at Powell has
gone down from 1901 In 1941 to
573 today, he said.
If approved by the board. the
transfer of Bell to Powell will re.
quire some congressional action.

alterations to Central High Schoo'

r Building to Be Razed.
But. wherever Bell goes, the
present old building, constructed in
1883 and branded as impossible
by DR.. Corning, will be razed for
IA new Shaw Junior High School.
The new proposal followed requests
from the Washington Building
Congress that a separate building
be set aside for vocational use.
AS for Corcoran, Dr. Corning ex-
planned his change OF. mind this
way:
A population study revealed that
about 235 children of pre-school age
will be enrolling in the elementary
school within a few years. doubling
the present enrolment. Originally
the Corcoran children were to be di-
vided among nearby Grant. Hyde
and jackson Elementary Schools
But their combined enrolment OF
SOC now is expected to double also in
the next few years to surpass the
combined capacity of 1854.
The full board approved his rec
ommendation not to close the Cor
coran School.
In another action, the board again
postponed the granting of permis-
sion to the Recreation Department
to use certain school buildings and
grounds for its summer recreation
program. When DR.. Corning sub
mitted the list of schools for ap-
proval, Mrs. James w. Williams
colored board member, expressed
surprise that he did so.

ST. EIizabeths
Bill Voted by.
Full Committee
House to Get Direct
Entry Plan Monday,
Dirksen Reports
By Miriom Gutenberg !

The House District Committee
today approved legislation per-
mitting chronic mental patients
to bypass Gallinger Hospital
and 60 directly to st. Elizabeths
Hospital after a member pre-
dicted the measure would end
the complaint of patients being
strapped to their beds at the
city hospital.
Chairman Dirksen said the meas
ure will reach the House floor Mon
day.
Representative Miller, Republican,
of Nebraska, who heads the Health,
Education and Recreation Subcom-
mittee, told committee members he
personally had seen patients
strapped to their beds in Gallinger's
psychopathic division.
Psychopathic Unit Understaffed.
Those patients belong in St.
Elizabeths," he declared. This bill
would eliminate a lot of complaints
of patients being strapped to, their
beds"
Manacling of patients in the over
crowded, understaffed psychopathic
division was cited by The Star in
urging the measure to permit direct
admissions to ST. Elizabeths Hos
pital. The bill would affect only
those believed to need extended hos
pital care. Persons picked up by
police, including alcoholics, would
continue to 60 to Gallinger.
DR.. Miller said the direct admis-
sions measure would be "easier on
the patients, cheaper for the Dis
trict, time-saver for the Health
Department." and would not in
crease the load of patients at st.
Elizabeths.
Would Get Legal Protection.
He emphasized that the patients
going directly to st. Elizabeths
would have the same legal protec-
ton as those who stop first at Gal
linger. A determination of their
mental condition, he explained,
would have to be made within 30
days.
When DR.. Miller commented that
the bill avoids double removal" )"
Representative Abernethy, Demo-
crat, of Mississippi, remarked that
the bill eliminates the flag stop"
DR.. Miller, in requesting favorable
action on the measure, pointed out
that 1t had been urged by citizens
and newspapers.
