 Easements already have been obtained from MT. Thuma to the south, and from Roland Snod- grass to the north, to permit clearing and slashing on the ap- breaches. It is still the hope of the board of directors that the field can be readied for DC-3 op- eration this fall and winter.

White Man
Denied New
Trial

FORT MYERS, Fla. CAMP -
The elderly white real estate man
who shot and killed waiter Ted
Samms last winter in an argu-
ment over room rent has been
denied a new trial. Reddin Randell
who was convicted of manslaugh-
ter asked for a new trial on the
grounds that the jury had been
prejudiced by going to see a MUIR
der motion picture during the
trial.
Circuit Judge w. T. Harrison
ruled that seeing the movie did
not affect the outcome of the
trial.
Randell who has extensive real
estate holding in the Negro
estion went to collect his weekly
rents one night last winter armed
with a pistol which he always
carried when he went into the Ne
gro section. He got into an argu-
ment with Stamina over the rent
of a furnished room and told him
to get out. When Stamina turned
to get his belongings Randell
shot him in the back.
At the trial Randell claimed
he shot in self defense. He said
Samms had pushed his wife who
accompanied him. Although he
fled after the shooting he later
gave himself up. The maximum
sentence he faces is 20 years.
So far as anyone can recall
this is the first time that a white
man has been convicted for kill
ing a Negro in Lee county.
