Greek Army Reports
Engagement With
Albanian Regulars
By the Associated Press

ATHENS, Sept. 2.-The general
staff disclosed yesterday that the
Greek Army fought an engage
ment recently with regular AL
banian troops and declared the
clash occurred on Greek soil. The
implication appeared to be that
Albanians invaded Greece.
Greek troops did not go into
Albania but were held back with
great pains" by their leaders, a
general staff statement said. The
Albanians have charged that
Greek Army units invaded their
territory on a "30-mile 'front.'"
The general staff gave this &C
count Of the action:
The fighting took place south
Of Kroustalopiyi when the Greek
9th Division tried to shut OF an
escape route used by Communist
led Greek guerrillas. In the fight
with the Albanians, the Greek
Army lost IA killed and 20l
wounded.
The general staff said If Greek
Army units had used Albanian
territory for tactical purposes the
complete annihilation of rebel
forces" during last months Vitsi
and Grammos campaigns would
have been secured. 1t said the
Greek Army was in the petition
of being subject to sly Attacks
without having the right to sslrsue
e. its opponents to their bases.
On the contrary, the general
staff said. the Greek Army is be-
ing obliged Ito conform with in
ternational rules which are bra
zenly disregarded with impunity
by its opponents (the guerrilla0
and by Albania"
In a recapitulation Of the fight
ing in the Vitsi area. the general
staff also disclosed for the first
time that 1000 rebels had slipped
into Yugoslavia. Premier Marshal
Tito of Yugoslavia said in July
that his government planned
gradually to close the Yugoslav-
Greek frontier.

Tor contempt is a live issue. Legal
scholars are debating 1t. The
Supreme Court has given split
decisions several times when the
matter was brought before it. n
chief complaint is about the
va9ueness of the legal definition
of contempt. II is felt that the
Limits of contempt should be
closely and clearly defined. since
II is an exception to the great
principle that trial by jury is
essential TO due process of law.
A famous case, Fisher versus
Pace, was decided by the SUI
preme Court early this year. Five
of the Justices upheld a Texas
judge who convicted a lawyer
for contemptuouS conduct during
a trial. -Four justices dissented,
criticizing the judge for acting in
a fit of temper. Justices Douglas
and Black, in dissenting, said the
power to punish for contempt in
open court must be narrowly
confined, lest it become an instru-
ment of tyranny"

A Jail Sentence
Without A Jury?
Yes, Many Ways
ZAP Newsteatures

Washington-A lot of lawyers
recently have been sentenced to
Jail without a jury trial. Federal
judges decided they were guilty
of contempt of court and gave
them from one to six months in
the cooler.
The cases bring out a point
which most laymcn don't realize:
That although the Constitution in
two places says that a defendant
in a criminal case shall have a
right to a trial by jury, there are
still a lot of ways he can be inn
prisoned without getting a chance
TO tell his story to a jury.
= The big contempt cases now
pending are those resulting from
the Harry Bridges trial in San
Francisco and the trial of the ii
Communists in New York. The
judges convicted sever defense
attorneys of improper conduct in
embarrassing. delaying fac
tics. tending 10 embarrass the
judge and impede the trial.
The lawyer in the Bridges case.
Vincent Hallinan, was sentenced
TO six months, to be served when
the trial is completed. Six attor-
neys involved in the New York
case, one of them a defendant
who MAS acting as his own law
yer, were sentenced 10 from one
to six months. Their appeal is
pending.
Not Even A Hearing
When a federal judge decides
a person is guilty of contempt
of court, he can fine or imprison
him without indictment or even
a hearing. There is no limit to
the length of the sentence or the
amount Of the fine, as long as
the punishment is not unreason-
able, cruel or unusual. The law
varies among the state courts,
but most of them follow the fed
eral practice TO a large extent.
The power Of a court to punish
for contempt is as old as the his
tory of lsw. You couldn't get or
derby administration of justice If
attorneys and others in the court
could persist in disturbing and
delaying the proceedings and
making the judge look like a fool.
And if the judge had to start
complicated legal processes, in
Guiding a jury trial, each time he
found someone guilty of CON
tempt, il would be possible to
delay the completion Of a trial
indefinitely. Also there is no need
for a jury to determine the facts,
since the judge witnessed the Of
Tense.
Many Other Ways
There are, in fact, a lot Of ways
a person can be legally imprison-
ed without a jury trial In mill
tary courts, for instance. And in
prosecutions for petty offenses
which we're deemed petty at the
time the Constitution was adopt
ed.
The question of how far a judge
should 90 in eonvictind someone

WHY LocusTs
FLY A HAIRLINE

London - CAP - Locusts have
queer short hairs on their heads
which give them directions when
flying. This discovery is reported
in Nature" the official British
science journal, by T. Weis-Fogh,
Of Gentofte, Denmark. The hairs
are queer because they do not
vibrate in the wind as do other
hairs on a locust. These merely
bend. Something in their strue-
ture prevents fast waving mo-
tons. BY the angle at which these
hairs bend a locust knows how
much he is turning away from a
straight line. When he is flying
straight the wind bends the hair
straight back.
