Mental Patient, 10,
.Confesses Sex Killing
OF Student Nurse
BY tho Associated Press

KALAMAZOO, Mich, Nov. 6.
Police said an 18-year-old
mental hospital patient, who
previously complained about I'M
! comfortable sex desires, told
them today he raped and stran-
gled a young student nurse he
described as "awfully pretty"
Louis M. Smith, a 135-pound,
5-foot, 7-inch patient committed
to Kalamazoo State Hospital
February S after sexual offenses
against young girls, was jailed
in the brutal Staying of Miss
Marilyn Kraai, 20. A red pencil
led police to him.
The nurses body was found
last night in a hospital therapy
room. She had been choked to
death with patients necktie.
Carrot Gerlofs, Kalamazoo
detective, said Smith told him
In a signed statement:
II did 1t, I did it. I'm sorry.
II don't know why I did it.
It was an impulse, I guess. But
she was awfully pretty. I wish
! were dead"
Prosecutors will decide whether
to charge Smith with murder, or
recommend transfer to Ionia
State Hospital for the Criminally
Insane.
Mr.. Gerlofs said Smith first
denied the Staying but admitted
1t when shown his red mechan-
ical pencil, found hear the body.
The statement said he had
killed Miss Kraai by grabbing
her around the throat, holding
her down, and tying a necktie
around her neck.
Smith said he dragged her
some IS feet into the room
where he raped her.
The statement said Smith
lured the nurse downstairs by
asking her to recover a deck Of
playing cards in the therapy
room.
Kalamazoo Hospital spokes-
men said Smith had been an
ideal" patient. Neither of the
previous offenses against two
girls involved rape, police said.
Doctors said Smith had COM
planned of uncomfortable sex
desires after he had been ar
rested several times on minor
moral charges. Juvenile author
tiles said he had been released
each time.

the National Symphony, but its
personnel is largely young stu
dents and older amateurs.
Under the leadership of George
Steiner, first desk violinist of the
National Symphony, the orches-
ira. although it lacks the finish
and aplomb of a professional or
ganization. plays with a certain
enthusiastic grace that some
more-polished groups might well
envy.
Suavely Rendered.
The sensuous impressionism of
Delius is not music that one as
sociates with amateur orchestras,
yet the piece was carried of so
Suavely that ones attention was
turned from an appraisal Of the
orchestra to enjoyment of the
music.
The David Diamond concerto
for orchestra. certainly not one
OF the most interesting pieces Of
the young American composer,
was given q colorful and lively
performance, while the piece for
strings alone by the Philadelphia
oser, Wilson Osborne,
showed of the fiddle section to a
good advantage.
Kirshbaum Praised.
The curse upon the French
composer Camille Saint-Saens
was that he never overeame the
difficulties of his art for the rea-
son that he never knew they
existed. He was a man of great
talent and facility, whose work
often seems on the brink of be-
ing exceptional.
Like so much of his music, the
cello concerto played last night
by Morris Kirshbaum you would
consider a very fine piece-if
you never heard it a second time.
Mr.. Kirshbaum's performance
was free and beautifully phrased,
and the tone he drew from the
cello is hardly inferior to any to
be heard about town.
The strength and solidity of
the National Symptoms cello
section can be easily understood
when its individual members,
such as Mr.. Kirshbaum, John
Martin, or Dorothy Stahl, are
heard as soloists or in chamber

Another cold, Star-l1t SKY
looked down last night upon the
encampment near this Mont
gomery County community of 80
Seventh-day Adventists involved
in a test Of how well evacuees
from atomic bombed cities can
survive on a minimum amount
of food and other necessities.
The experiment found the
party huddled closely around
a campfire, heating their toes
and pile Of Montgomery Coun-
ty rock, the latter to be de-
posted in sleeping bags to heat
those same toes.
The Washington Missionary
College, an Adventist institution,
is conducting the project near
Spencerville.
Use Survival Kit"
A key part of the test is a So
called survival kit which i'm
cludes a variety of foods, mostly
dehydrated, as well as other
small needs designed to carry
evacuees through a three-day
period after which, presumably,
mass supplies are re-established.
Members of the party yester-
day spent their second day sub
Sisting on a calorie-packed diet
of dehydrated foods.
That the rations provided
plenty Of energy was indicated
by the fact that in the late after
noon virtually every one eagerly
agreed to take a nature hike.
This lasted more than an hour.
No one seemed exhausted after
it was over.
Pocket Size Cook Stove.
S. Donald Perlman devised the
pocket-sized cook stove being
used by the campers in their sur
vival experiment.
The kit also has such other
useful items as plastic water
bags, water publication pills, Mr..
Perlman's little cook stove, tooth
picks, rubber bands, needle and
thread. medicants, a sponge for
KIP and a razor with blades.
The raw faces of some of the
gentlemen yesterday proclaimed
that the razors were put to use.
