The group is under the direction

She was allowed to plead guilty
to the charge Of second-degree
murder after it had been reduced
from first-degree, with no object
ion from Assistant Prosecutor
Lloyd O'Hara, who told the Court:
"Since she has no prior record and
the fatal shooting leading to the
death of her husband followed an
all night family argument, the Of
flee of the prosecutor has no
objection to the reduction.
Mrs. Drummonds, a bride of
three months, told how she was
afraid when her husband Earl
Drummonds, At, employed at the
Duriron Foundry, came home on
the evening of last Dec. l., and
following an argument attacked
her later on in the night, then
went to work Saturday morning
with the warning: "There's more

him with a shotgun blast through
the locked door of their residence
when he returned from work.

JUDGE MILLS, in passing sent.

JUDGE MILLS, in passing sent
ence, said: Like so many other
cases similar to this one, it was
a border-line case, where it could
be either first or second degree,
and the sentence of the court is
passed on the circumstances.
The fact that Mrs. Drummonds
failed to report the affair to the
police on the morning after the all
night attack, and took the law in
her own hands, does not eliminate
the fact she committed murder"
Her attorney, Albert Sharrer
in seeking the reduction of the
charge told of how the couple
had reached the "boiling point"
over a television set, and went to
a movie about 9 pm. with hopes
of reaching a truce and settling
the argument.
They went to the Palace Thea
ter at Fifth and Williams ST.,
where Drummonds became abus-
i've and was cautioned by the
ushers to be quiet. Since he was
disturbing the other patrons and
embarrassing her, she urged him
to leave with her. On the way out,

Withdrawal Of Troops
From Europe Seen as
Possible Late in '53
By tho Asseeiossd Press

SUPREME HEADQUARTERS
ALLIED POWERS IN EUROPE.
Oct. 16.-A group Of visiting
American editors was told yester-
day that the withdrawal Of Amer
lean troops from Europe might
begin in late 1853 or early 1854
lif Western Europe's defensive
buildup continues at the present
rate.
The IA newsmen visited this
headquarters to start q tour Of
nations receiving mutual defense
aid from the United States. No
Official source could be identified
with the information they OBJ
tained.
The editors were told that in a
matter Of 21a or 8 years Western
Europe should be in a. good de-
fensive position. and the with
drawal of American forces might
begin then.
Counting on Carriers.
This possibility. it was under
stood, depends upon q continual
ton of the buildiup at its present
rate-and also whether Russian
and Communist power appears
more menacing by then.
Meanwhile. staff officers said
today, Gen. Eisenhower is count
ing heavily on aircraft carriers
to compensate for q shortage OF
airflelds in Western Europe and
the Middle East should war break
out.
The supreme commander went
to Naples. Italy. later in the day
to spend three days with the
United States 9Th Fleet during
Mediterranean maneuvers.

In the tense Middle East, Tur-
key will bring 10 divisions Of con-

in that country are tremendous. 81
On the other hand. Russia has
completed a number Of new air.

now has enough for offensive pur-
poses.

ditures and the West European.
