Two GIs Held for Jury
In kidnapping and
Assault on Policeman

Two Fort Belvoir soldiers were
ordered held for action Of Prince
William County grand jury today
on charges of kidnapping and feloni-
ously assaulting a Manassas town
policeman.
Pvts. John Elmer Sullivan, %. and
Lawrence Mitchell Hynson, %, are
accused of abducting Police Sergt.
Gene A. Colbert last Friday after
he stopped them to investigate a
speeding violation.
Trial Justice c. Lacey Compton
continued their bond at $4,000
each.
Tells of Wild Ride.
i Sergt. Colbert testified in the
preliminary hearing today before
a crowded courtroom. He told of
a wild, high-speed ride through
back roads in Prince William and
Fauquier Counties which lasted for
over an hour.
The policeman said Sullivan
snatched his pistol and fired one
shot at him after he had forced
the speeding car off Route 234
near Manassas.
Sullivan threatened Hynson and
forced him to drive the car, Sergt.
Colbert told the court. He said
Hynson "was scared"
"He was as scared as was.'''
added Sergt. Colbert. = 2
The policeman said the soldiers
stopped the car once in an open
field and ordered him into the
woods. He talked them out OF
walking to the woods because he
thought II would be a goner for
sure then"
Sullivan then ordered the po-
liceman to open three cans of
beer which were in the car and
the captive drank a beer with his
captors.
Drank Beer Voluntarily.
Gle didn't force me into drink
ing the beer. Sullivan just said
give Jim one and by golly,
wanted one by that time" said
Sergt. Colbert.
It was at this point the police
imam said, that he talked Sullivan
into taking my uniform so that
he would be noticed on the high
way, particularly since he was in
toxicated."
Sullivan gave the pistol to Hyn-
son while he changed clothes.
The policeman said he looked for
a sign from Hynson that he was
willing to turn the gun over to
him, but said he saw no such sign
The soldiers then drove to a side
road near Vint Hill Farms and re-
leased Sergt. Colbert.
Wearing Uniform When Caught.
The men were picked up on
Route 211 near Kamp Washington
by Fairfax police who had been
alerted for the speeding auto. Sui
livan was wearing the police uni
form and the pistol was in its
holster at his side when Detective
Herbert N. Marcy ordered him
out of the car.
Hynson was represented by At
torney William A. Moncure OF
Alexandria, who asked that the
charges against his client be dis
missed on the basis of Sergt. Col
bert's testimony. Judge Compton
refused the motion, pointing out
that Hynson held the gun at one
point ard had a legal and moral
responsibility to aid the police
man then but failed to do so.
Sullivan was not represented by
counsel.

ber 6 and Commemorative Attor.

VA Weighs Reduction
In Medical Services
To Meet Budget Cuts

Medical and hospital services
for veterans face drastic cuts, be-
ginning with the next fiscal year,
to bring the Veterans Admins
tration operations within the re-
duced appropriations. according
to DR.. Joel T. Boone, chief medi-
cal director.
However, = DR.. Boone said the
high standards of medical care
set in the veterans program will
not be impaired.
Four possible steps are under
consideration. They are:
/. Closing older hospitals where
operating costs, coupled with un-
satisfactory clinical, safety and
sanitary conditions. require ex-
pensive maintenance and or ex-
tensive modernization.
2. Closing isolated hospitals
where adequate stating presents
an exceptionally difficult problem.
May Curtail Beds.
8. Closing large numbers of
beds, pro-rated throughout the
country.
4. Delaying the opening of new
hospitals.
It is believed the final decisions
will be made on the first three
categories. DR.. Boone said that
because of their superior equip
ment and facilities. it is obviously
desirable to open and operate new
hospitals.
Even in the closing of some OF
the older hospitals the Vet
erans' Administration is faced
with serious problem. Many OF
these are tuberculosis and neuro-
psythiatric institutions, whose pa
tients cannot be released.
Some of the newer veterans
hospitals were constructed in
isolated communities admittedly
to appease political rather than
medical demands. These probably
will be among the first to be
closed.
Face Personnel Losses.
Serious losses in trained pro-
fessional personnel are faced,
which means also the breaking
up of research programs. Cnder
administrative, medical. hospital
and domiciliary services. The ap-
preparation measure reduces the
budgetary requests by sol .413,570
But this is made more serious by
the fact that it will have to be
reduced by $32 ,254. 900 for n:enda-
tory pay raise costs which the
administration was unable to alb
sorb with the funds available
during the current fiscal year.
This will reduce the average
employment for fiscal year 1876;
by $3.50 personnel in the med
teal. hospital and domiciliary
services.
In the face of this personne
cut, "a new hospitals are scheduled
for completion between now ant
the end of 1858. DR.. Boone sale
that the cut from $5.5 million Il
S2.75 million for medical research
twill practically abolish an eS'
Sential program"

This reduction, he added. vii
require closing so per cent Of th'
64 general medical and II radio
isotope laboratories due to th'
prospective loss of 287 employees
many of whom are irreplaceabl'

the reduction of funds available

gin additional projects planned

Tiger Rattlesnake.

Names are often very misleading
This is especially true of the tiger
rattlesnake, whose only resemblance
to the great hunting cat is its uni
form of blotches, bars and dark
ground color.
At one time this resident of the
desert and prairie areas of Arizona
Nevada and California was very
abundant. Now few are ever seen
Scientists speak of the tiger rattle
snake as being rare. However
those travelling in the higher eleva-
I tions in the mountain ranges OF
California, tell RI hearing the un-
mistakable " Of rattles and

This black and yellow member OF

Meeting a tiger rattler on the
mountain top, you are fascinated
by the way he arches his neck in
an oblique bow to support his
Iheart-shaped head. The slow wav-
ing tongue with spread tremulous
lips, the glittering eyes and the
inceSsant Whir of the rattles are
all calculated to frighten the wits
out of the beholder. His digestion,
while perfect, is slow. One hearty
meal serves for days. During this
process, the reptile appears to be
in a coma.
A persistent and popular idea is
to the effect that you can tell the
age Of a rattler by counting the
rings or segments of his rattle
With most of the reptiles such CAL
culation is utterly impossible. since
rattleS or buttons are worn off and
lost. True, the rattler acquires a
new button every year; but if the
owner IS employed too much, the
end ones drop of. A rattle longer
than 10 or II buttons or rings
would be an awkward appendage.

Overheard on program advertis-
ing dairy products: ". milk
that has been made safe to drink
by being 'pasturized.'
Well, as a child I, too, used tc
think that "pasteurized milk" came
from cows that had been in a
pasture" But I learned better
later.
The common mispronunciation of
the word pasteurize results from
this sort of mental association
Milk comes from COWS. Cows are
kept in pastures. Milk, therefore
is saic to be 'paSturized."
However, the process of pasteuri-
zation is named for it's inventor
the renowned French chemist, Louis
Pasteur, pronounced: loo-EE pahss-
TER. He also developed the fam
Gus Pasteur method of treating

Pasteurize is correctly pronounced !:
