There were bands, lines Of

Those Who Subdued
Puerto Ricans Testify
In Shooting Trial
By Jack Jonos

Men who helped Subdue three
Puerto Rican terroristS following
a shooting spree March from
the House gallery told their
stories to a Federal Court ju1J
today. One said he saw a fourth
flee the scene.
Four are on trial in the shoot
ing, which left five Representa-
tives wounded. Being tried in
the U. S. District Court for the
District of Columbia on charges
of assault with intent to kill and
assault with a dangerous weapon
are Mrs. Lolita Lebron, "a; Rafael
Concel Miranda. 25; Andres Fig
ueroa Cordero, 20. and Irving
Flores Rodriguez. 27. all of New
York City.
w. S. Elgin, doorkeeper at the
gallery section where the shoot
ing occurred, said he admitted
three-Mrs. Lebron, Miranda
and Cordero-after asking them
If they carried cameras or opera
glasses, which visitors are not al
lowed to bring into the gallery.
Saw Two Firing.
Mr.. Elgin said after the shoot
ing began he rushed into the
gallery and saw Mrs. Lebron and
Miranda firing toward the House
floor. He said he hurried to Mrs.
Lebron'S side and knocked her
hands downward.
"She was fighting like a wild
cat" he recalled.
Others bore her out of the
gallery, he said, and he turned
to help Subdue Miranda.
He said he admitted only the
three, and could not recall ad-
mitting Rodriguez, who was ar
rested a short time after the
shooting as he bought a bus
ticket to New York.
Describing the shooting, Mr..
Elgin declared:
1T went pop-pop-pop-just
like that"
John E. Connolley, a news
editor for the National Broad
casting Co., told of holding Mrs.
Lebron in the corridor outside
the gallery until officers arrived
to arrest her. He said he ques-
toned her as he stood holding
her and this exchange occurred:
What is your name?"
my name is Lolita Lebron."
"How many are you?"
1--WE are four"
"Why are you here?"
1--WE are here because my
country does not have indie
pendence. Puerto Rico is not
truly free"
Pvt. John L. Drummer of the
Capitol police force identified
Mrs. Lebron as a woman he ar
rested. He said he took from her
a Puerto Rican flag, flag which
she had made herself and which
was presented this morning as
evidence.
AS Pvt. Drummer testified, Mrs.
Lebron read from a prayer book
which she has carried with her
since the trial began last
Wednesday.
At one point. she objected to
the way in which Myron G. Ehr-
Itch. defense attorney, was
handling the flag. She asked him
to straighten it and Mr.. Ehrlich
smoothed it on the tables
Will Be Recalled.
Pvt. Brunner is to be recalled
later as a defense witness, pre-
sumably to tell what he saw in
connection with other defend
ants, Miranda and Cordero.
Others who testified in con-
nection with transfer of the flag
to police were Clarence A.
Boltolfsen, deputy sergeant-at-
arms of the Senate, and 1t.

gets SOME assistance from Jack

The old, old story In "Phffft"
