French Farmer Tries Suicide
In Re-enocting English Killings
Mon, 76, Accused
BY Sons in Murder
Of Drummonds in 81
BY the Assoeioted Press

DIGNE, France, Nov. 16.-
CASTOR Dominica, gnarled old
mountain farmer who has con-
fessed the triple Staying of an
English family Is months ago,
tried to throw himself over a
railroad bridge today during a
re-enactment of the crime.
Police grabbed the bearded,
76-year-old farmer before he
could carry out his apparent at
tempt at suicide.
Accused by two of his own
sons, the old man was charged
formally today with the Staying
on August S, 1852, of British
nutrition expert Sir Jack Drum
mond, Lady Drummond and
their 11-year-old daughter.
The Drummonds, holidaying
in France, were slain at their
road side camp site 200 yards
from Dominicis stone farm home
near here in Southeastern
France.
Police said the old man broke
down and confessed the killings
after his sons accusations and
48 hours of police grilling.
New Version of Motive.
The French press agency. in
new version of the farmers
alleged confession. said he killed
the Drummonds after Sir Jack
surprised him in an attempt to
attack Lady Drummond.
But Police Commissioner Ed
mond Sebeille denied that Domi-
nici had admitted any attack at
tempt.
Earlier, Detective Georges Har-
zig had told a news conference
that Sir Jack caught the old man
watching Lady Drummond un-
dress.
Sir Jack, 81, had gained fame
in Britain for organizing the
wartime austerity diet which
kept the islanders fit while Ger
man submarines preyed on their
shipping.
Mr.. Harzig gave this version
Of the confession:
The <old man, out. hunting,
walked near the Drummond car.
He went closer to spy on her.
The woman saw or heard him
and screamed, arouSing her hus-
band. The two men quarreled,
traded blows, and Dominica fired.
first at Sir Jack, then at his
wife, killing them both.
Then the old man fired at the
child, Elizabeth. The bullet only
creased her and she ran scream
ing toward the nearby Durance
River. Dominica chased her and
she fell. AS she begged for
mercy, he clubbed her to death
with his rifle stock.
Returned to Scene of Crime.
Dominica, the father of eight
children, was returned to the
scene of the crime today for a
check on his confession. His
dash for the bridge came just
before the re-enactment Of the
crime reached the death of the
child. A police inspector play
ing Elizabeth's role had opened
the car door and run for the
river. .*
Playing his role, Dominica
numbered after but kept on 60
ing to the nearby bridge. He
was caught and brought back.
AS the police inspector covered
in feigned terror. Dominica went
through the motions of smash
ing his skull.
His arrest ended a long and
patient police investigation
hampered by the hostile silence
of the peasants of this region
of the lower Alps. The first
break came two days ago when
two of Dominici's sons, Gustave
and Clovis, told police their

Scraping of a chair once in a

the room was so quiet you could
hear the footsteps Of people out
side.
In the room 1873 draftees were
taking the Armed Forces Qualifi-

designed to find out whether they
could be trained within reason
able time.
They were sitting in the main
building of the Alexandria, Va,
induction center at long tables
/, divided into sections by plywood
"blinderS." I was taking the test
too, just to see what it was like
to be a draftee.
The test was exactly the same
as the one draftees and volunteers
have been taking for the past two
years and the Same-word for
word-as those being taken at the
70 other induction centers around
the country.
Instructions had been read to
us by 1t. Jerry Greenfield, the
center's psychologist, at a slow,
almost painful pace. He later told
me the pace is part Of giving the
test.

Hollywood To
Work Over The
HueyLOngT Tale

HOLLYWOOD R-Hollywood is
taking another whirl at the Huey
Long legend, although there are
the usual denials that there is any
resemblance to the late Louisiana
senator.
The last film which seemed to
parallel the Huey Long career was
''Au the Kings Men" When it
was made, its sponsors claimed
it was the kind of story which
could happen anywhere. The locale
of the film was clouded, so it
would not appear to be even in
the South.
Now the Cagney brothers are
filming another famous novel, "a
Lion Is in the Streets" 1t is also
the story of an ambitious politician
who sets a whole state on its ear.

I'm sure some of the men miss
the whole point of the test"
The 80 questions, which we had
Is minutes to answer, were of
three types.
The first was to test our ability
to deal with words. For example,
the question would be a simple
statement with one word under
lined. We would have to pick one
OF four words similar in meaning
to the underlined word.
Second was arithmetic. For ex-
ample, the question would ask:
Jimmy has five apples. How many
would he have left if he gave two
to his brother Tommy and one to
his friend Sam? We had our choice
OF four answers.
The third type was to test our
ability to put things together.
Questions and answers were all
drawings. The question drawing
might be the pattern of box as
it looks before it's folded together
to form the box. Then, from four
answer drawings we were to pick
the one which looked like the box
pattern after it was folded.

For This Year
Ry BOB THOMAS


HOLLYWOOD R-My exclusive
prediction of things to come in
Hollywood during 1858:
Lana Turner will find a new
romance.
Charlie Chaplin viii make big
news.
Rita Hayworth will have further
dealings with Ally Khan.
Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner
will have a fight.
Shelley Winters will have q
baby.
OF course, these events are more
or less inevitable. What Hollywood
would really like to know about
the New Year is: viii the movie
business stay on its feet? I pre-
dict that it will.
No, l don't own any movie stock
and cannot otherwise be swayed.
! l simply feel that 1853 will be a
good year for Hollywood. One Of
the main reasons for this belief
is the third dimension.
There is nothing new about third

been experimenting with them

bows in third-dimenSional projects.
At present, there are two main
methods of presentation. One pro.
jects the film from three different
angles onto a large semi-cylindri.
cal screen. This is the Cinerama
method, which is seen with a per.
sons usual vision.
The other method requires two
projectors and special glasses,
which provide the same effect as
the old-fashioned stereoscope.
Of course, third dimensional
pictures are not the only answer
to Hollywood's problem of a de.
creasing and apathetic audience.
The producers win also have to
hunt up new and intriguing stars,
fresh story material and new an
proacheS to film technique.
Happy hunting, Hollywood.
