.McCaughey's Plea
Of Second Degree Is
Accepted in Staying

Richard L. McCaughey, 20
year-old magazine salesman, to-
day was found guilty of second
degree murder in the shooting
of a Takoma Park (Md.) cab
driver last June "a.
He pleaded guilty to a charge
of murder before Judge William
D. Medley in Arlington Circuit
Court. The judge determined
the degree of the offense after
considering a number of factors,
including McCaughey's willing
ness to cooperate with police
and to testify at an earlier trial
of his companion in the shoot
ing.
The companion, John C. Ken
singer, 90, also an itinerant mag
azine salesman, was found guilty
of f1rst-degree murder on Sep
tember II in the shooting of
Leroy E. Applegate.
Offers to Change Plea.
McCaughey, represented by At
torneys Homer Randolph, Thom-
as and Paul G.. Varoutsos, offered
to change his not guilty plea to
one of guilty of second-degree
murder. Judge Medley agreed
with commemorative Attorney
William j. Hassan that a guilty
plea may be filed to the blanket
charge of murder and it is up to
the judge or jury to determine
the degree of guilt.
Both sides then concurred that
evidence, including McCaughey'S S
testimony at the Kensinger trial,
constitute the facts in the case.
This indicated that McCaughey
had no generalization of murder
when he entered Mr.. Applegate's S
cab with Kensinger in front of
the New Colonial Hotel in Wash
ington.
DIDN'T Iell POllce.
Earlier evidence also indicated
McCaughey had no knowledge
before the shooting that Ken
singer carried a gun but, accord
ing to Mr. Hassan, McCaughey
failed to purge himself of guilt
by omitting to disclose the shoot
ing and holdup to police who
stopped them a short time after
the incident and then let
them go.
Judge Medley deferred impo-
sition of sentence to october 10,
the same date he will sentence
Kensinger. The judge said he
would consider McCaughey'S age,
his freedom from entanglementS
with the law and his co-opera-
ton with authorities by giving a
statement under oath and testi-
flying at the Kensinger trial.
At the earlier trial, Judge
Medley said he had mo alterna-
tive" but to find KenSinger
guilty of first-degree murder
when he admitted shooting Mr..
Applegate during a robbery.

it, though, with the shabby
structure at the time Of the
Survey. The low frame wing
is the older, dating from Revo-
lutionary times; the brick
portion Is believed to have
been built about 1910.
Perhaps Piscataway is more
fortunate than some other
villages of comparable size.
At any rate, consider the
rescue of Brent House, or
Littleworth. Probably no
name could more accurately
describe the house Of the
193Os than the latter. It Is a
tribute to its owners, how
ever, in their discernment OF
its inherent character and
charm.
The old Tavern, nearly
opposite, shows a restoration
almost as surprising. AS an
inn in the late 1700S, it lacked
the structural charm of Brent
House. Compare its condi-
ton today, though, with that
at the time of the Survey.

During the middle and late

undertook a Historic Amer

were searched for houses,
churches, inns, slave quarters
and barns having historic or
cultural significance. Consid-

project, an amazing collection
of data was gathered in the
form of photographs and
drawings, now in the files of
the Library Of Congress. A
volume was printed, now
highly priced by antiquarians

renewed interest in Govern

similar desire on the part of
individuals to acquire and

EVERYWHERE these days
- the cry is of overcrowd-

utilities have had mountain
GUS problems and the situation
with our schools is we'll
known. Roads and streets
which served us well 10 or 20
years ago have become real
bottleneckS and headaches to
our traffic engineers. The
condition isn't confined to any
one area: Almost any section
of the country having a large
metropolitan area also has all
the problems incident to
growing pains.
Prince Georges, as one of
the fastest growing counties
in the Nation, has its share
of "expansionitis," perhaps in
part because of its proximity
to Washington. However, all
of its building program isn't
confined to real estate de-

that just a little beyond these,
some of Maryland's historic
Colonial buildings stand well

Virginia U. Student
Loses in SemifinaIs
OF French Amateur
By the Associated Press

CHANTILLY, France. June 6.
Ernie Arend, jr., of Deal, N. j.,
last American in the French
Amateur golf championship,
bowed out in the semifinals to-
day after beating the only other
remaining American player in
the morning quarter-f1nals.
Arend, a broad-shoudered 20
year-old University of Virginia
student, never led after the fifth
hole and was beaten by 10
year-old Roger LaGarde of
France. 2 and l, in the afternoon
round Of four.
LaGarde will meet Harry
Bentley Of England, French
champion in 1881 and 1882. in
the 36-hole final round tomor-
row. The Englishman defeated
Louis BriSson of France, 2 up.
in the other semifinal.
Arend, who suffers from dia-
betes and must MUNICH on sugar
or candy bars while playing,
was seven over par as a brisk,
tricky wind blew over the 1914
yard, par-72 course. LaGarde
closed out the match on the
18th hole. Dormie 2 on the 18th
tee, Arend could do no better
than match LaGarde's par S
and that was it.
The young American, beaten
in the early rounds of the
British amateur. became the last
of the 27-man American con-
tingent when he defeated So
year-old Maj. John M. Anderson
of Ottumwa, Iowa, up in the
quarter final round. Anderson
only yesterday had upset Harvie
Ward Of Atlanta, Ga, the chief
American hope for the title won
last year by Dick Chapman of
PinehurSt, N. c.
Arend, who stayed out of
school this year while playing
the winter golf circuit with the
professionals, was all even after
nine holes against LaGarde. But
he blew his only chance u go
ahead on the back nine and soon
found himself in trouble. After
halving the first three holes of
the second nine. the New Jersey
youngster missed a four-foot
putt on the 18th and had to be
content with a half on the hole
instead of taking the lead.
Apparently unnerved, he
flubbed another four-footer on
the 14th and this time it cost
him the hole as LaGarde
rammed his putt home for a
par 3 to Arend's 4. LaGarde, son
of a French golf professional,
went 2 up on the 18th when
Arend went into the rough and
again needed four strokes to the
French youths three.
