 Young Lovers of Marriage Pitfalls

WASHINGTON, LR = A new Army pamphlet warns young people against Prince Charming Sleeping Beauty approach to marriage.
 ''None of us is Prince Charm ing, and no one ever marries a Sleeping Beauty" one chapter of the pamphlet says. The publica- ton is one of a series being is- sued by the Army on the general subjects of duty, honor and country.
 In marriage, the Army adds, Hove is important if it's the right kind of love-" not an infatuation of excited love" that "may leave you breathless today but won't last in or out of marriage"
 The pamphlet advises young people that sex, finances, religon and background are important factors to be considered in taking the step.
 It also is critical of any notion that matrimony is "a ball and chain existence" or "a moose that a smart man avoids"
 No marriage is perfect, it adds philosophically, and "couples cele- brating golden anniversaries who say they never had fight have poor memories"

w. Va. Gunsmith Uses .22 in Killing Young Girls Who Resisted Advances

HUNTINGTON, w. Va, R - A 29-year-old gunsmith was ar rested Saturday and charged with murdering two young girls who had minded his children.
 Police said Henry C. Warth ad- mitted shooting to death Penny Qualls, 13, and her cousin, Linda Qualls, 12.
 Warth offered no resistance when four officers took him into custody less than six hours after the bodies had been found in the Warth home Friday night.
 He was arrested when a patrol man spotted him driving his car. His two children were with him in the car, and both were unharmed. A loaded machine gun and sev- eral loaded weapons were found in the car.
 Detective Herm a n Frazier quoted Warth as saying that he had arrived home Friday night and about five minutes later went for .22 caliber rifle.
 Frazier said Warth had ad- mitted shooting the older girl in the head, then reloading and wounding the younger girl in the neck. Warth said he then choked Linda and pulled off an under garment, police said.
 The detective said Warth denied he had molested either girl.
 Police said there were indica- tions that Warth had made ad- vances toward the girls, and shot them in anger when they re- sisted.
 His wife, Margaret, had hired the girls to babysit with her children.

Wild Chase Brings Down Hired Assassin In Midwest City Park

SPRINGFIELD, H., R - An off-duty state trooper raced across a snow-packed park to rescue a terrified mother, fleeing from a man who told police he was hired by her husband to kill her for $20O.
 State Trooper William Dahl kamp, unarmed, brought down the man, John Burris, 25, with a flying tackle late Saturday night shortly after the woman attracted his attention by deliberately crashing her car into his.
 Burris, grave digger, was quoted as saying that Alfred F, Schweska, 34, paid him the money to kill Mrs. Schweska, 28, the mother of three.
 Mrs. Schweska was taken to a hospital suffering from shock.
 Schweska, an engineer, was ar rested and charged with being an accessory before the fact of in- tended murder. Burris was charg- ed with breaking and entering the Schweska home with intent to commit felony. Both were held under $50,000 bond each.
 Police said Burris had broken into the Schweska home and seized Mrs. Schweska when she returned home from work. He forced her to drive around the city in the family car. Near Lin coin Park, Mrs. Schweska ram- med the car of Trooper Dahlkamp, jumped out and ran through the park.
 Burris fired shotgun blast at her, missed, flung the gun aside and chased her. Dahlkamp chased Burris and tackled him.
