RIVERSIDE, Calf, Nov. 26
(AP) The admitted slayer of
a wealthy vitamin distributor
and his wife grinned as he was
sentenced to the gas chamber.
David j. Seiterle, 10. was

younger teen-agers pleaded
guilty to charges of numbering
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Duvel last
August, remained silent through
the 5-minute formal sentence
hearing. A jury had con-
demned him to the death
penalty earlier in the week.
Seiterle's accomplices, Karl
Gentry. II, and Thomas Neil
O'Hara, Is, were sentenced to
life imprisonment in Septem-
ber..
The Duvels were tortured,
stabbed and garroted.
! No date has been set for
Seiterle's execution.

Soviet Apparently
Dumping Cuban
Sugar in Jordan
BY thu Associated Press

The Soviet Union apparently
has started dumping Cuban
sugar on the world market at
less than prevailing prices.
Trade observers yesterday
noted reports that 1900 tons of
Cuban sugar, shipped in Rus
sian vessels to Bulgaria, has
been sold to Jordan at a price
of 80 British pounds a metric
ton.
The prevailing price in Jor-
dan. observers said, has been
IS British pounds per ton.
The sale price amounts to
about $50 cents a pound, as
compared with the world and
Cuban price Of 3.25 cents.
A February trade agreement
between Cuba and the Soviet
Union provided that Russia
would buy l million tons of
sugar annually, with payment
in dollars for 100000 tons at
the world price. The other
100000 tons to be shipped by
Cuba would be credited against
articles which Cuba purchased
from Russia.
Observers here noted that
some surprise was expressed at
the time the agreement was
signed, since Russia's own sugar
production has been rising
steadily.

leaving high school, there is
great dissatisfaction with ira
ditional grammar instruction.
In Arlington. for example,
schools have abandoned the
traditional textbook approach
to grammar.
The decision to scrap the
old-fashioned system was made
last year after Fred Carpenter.
secondary school supervisor Of
English, completed a survey to-
find out what actually was be-
ing in the classrooms.
The results confirmed his sus-
picions: Students were getting
the same grammar over and
over again each year from sew
enth through twelfth grade.
Such repetition not only
deadened student interest, but
it also restricted the actual
amount of grammar that could
be taught, he says.
Now the Arlington student is
encouraged to discover the rules
for himself from actual SEN
fences and then make up his
own examples illustrating them.
As Yet Undeveloped
So far. complete and work.
able system for teaching the
important concepts of language
structure has not been devel-
oped.
But it soon will be, says Miss
Katherine Greaney, supervisor
of secondary education in
Montgomery County.
To-day so many people are
so hidebound by the old termi-
nology that they are not cut
ting through to the major
points" Miss Greaney says.
Ideally, teachers say, all stu
dents by the time they leave
high school should be able to
speak acceptable English and
write good sentences.
But. as one teacher admits,
such goals are rarely achieved.
If they were, she says, it
would be Utopia.
