Use Logic

East felt pretty coy about

assumed, since he wouldn't dare
play East for all three Of the
missing trumps.

| Not Guilty
South wasn't guilty Of peek
ing. He had used ordinary logic
to deduce that East had all of
the missing trumps.
The 1irst few tricks made it
clear that East held only four
clubs and o singleton diamond.
East therefore held eight cards
in spades and hearts. yet had
opened the bidding with one
club.
Would East make this OPEN
ing bid with flve hearts? What
player in his right mind would
open with one club on A-6-4-2
II he held . strong five-card
heart suit?
The only possible conclusion
was that East's eight major-suit
cards consisted Of four spades
and four hearts. This conclu-
sion made it easy for South to
play the trumps properly.

both sides Of Congress may
come next week.
Convicted first degree mur-
derers are electrocuted in the
District under current law.
The Senate substitute calls
for life imprisonment upon
conviction unless jurors unani-
mously recommend death. A
judge, after a pre-sentence
hearing, could throw out the
death recommendation and i'm
pose a life sentence. Or the
judge could follow the jury rec
ommendation and send the con-
victed murderer to the chair.
This approach was supported
by Senate subcommitteemen
Hartke, Democrat of Indiana,
and Case, Republican of South
Dakota, but opposed by the

third member, Senator Frear,
Democrat of Delaware.
Senator Frear noted that a
Judge could mitigate a recon-
mendation for death by sending
a murderer to prison. But the
judge could not overturn the
life Imprisonment, in the alb
sence Of a jury recommends =
ton, and impose a death SEN
tence, under the Senate Ian
guage.
The House version requires
death upon conviction unless
the jury unanimously recon-
mends life Imprisonment. The
judge would be obligated to send
a murderer to prison rather
than the chair if he received
such a recommendation.
But if jurors found the mur-
derer guilty and then informed
the judge they couldn't agree

on sentencing, the judge would
have to sentence the convicted
defendant to life Imprisonment.
Thus, under the House Ian
guage, death could be blocked
either by a unanimous jury
agreement for a life sentence,
or by the failure of the jury to
agree on what sentence to rec
ommend.

A proposal to raise the Dis
trict's compulsory school at
tendance age from 16 to 18 met
strong opposition yesterday.
The proposal was made re-
Gently by DR.. Rowland B.
Kinks, chairman of the school
, boards Committee on Legis-
lation.
Many opponents of the pro-
posal supported an April IA
statement by Supt. Carl F.
Hansen urging curriculum
notifications to encourage pu-
pills over 16 to remain in school.
Opponents of the proposal
indicated yesterday they felt
legislative efforts. if any,
should focus on racial problems
facing school dropouts in
search of employment.
The compulsory attendance
law, If raised to IS, they felt,
would create an administrative
oVerburden on school officials.
FL Recommended
DR.. Kinks last year proposed
raising the compulsory age to
81 to require all youngsters
capable of doing so to finish
high school.
Under the present system. he
feels, many youths who drop
out at Is tend to drift into de-
linquency and do not become
self-Supporting.
1t. Col. Van H. Tanner of
the Armed Services Police was
the lone supporter of DR.. Kinks
proposal at yesterdays hear
ing.
A raised compulsory attend
ance age, he said, would con-
dition families to expect their
youngsters to stay in school un-
til they've learned as much as
they can," and would motivate
pupils to learn.
However, Arthur W. Motley,
director of the Bureau of Labor
Standards. said the schools
can make more progress
through NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
lty and parental support-than
through compulsory attendance
laws.
One problem facing school
officials concerned with drop
outs, Mr.. Motley noted is they
ARE operating an integrated
school system in a segregated

He was supported in this ap-
praisal Of the city's labor mar
ket by Fred Hetzel, director of

Service for the District, who

Juvenile Court Judge Orm w.
Ketcham, in a letter to the

to raising the compulsory age.

recommended that the Board

velopment of such programs for

Trio of Women Found Murdered In Illinois Cave

OTTAWA, H., tR - A blood stained tree limb and pieces of red cord were objects of intense scrutiny yesterday as police spurred efforts to solve the grisly staying of three women on a holi- day trip to one of Illinois most scenic resorts.
 But investigators admitted they had little to go on.
 The women, wives of prominent Chicago business executives, were found by search party We'd nesday on the floor of cave in a towering sandstone canyon in rolling Starved Rock State Park, 100 miles southwest of Chicago.
 Their heads were bloodied and battered. Bruises covered other parts of their bodies. Two women were naked from the waist down; the third still wore a girdle. A fingertip was missing from one victim.
 States Attorney Harlan Warren said all indications pointed to rape too. State police troopers agreed it was a sex crime, lone of the worst in many years"
 The victims, all socially proml- nent in West Chicago, hac checked into the all-year resort for a rest days of rest and hiking.
 They were not missed until Wednesday when relatives phoned the lodge.
 The bloodied tree limb was picked up about six feet from the mouth of the cave.
 The pieces of red cord were found around the wrists of two of the victims. Investigators theor- ized that the assailant or assail- ants tied the two together while they attacked the third.

U. s. Delegate Asks Ban on Space Atom Weapons Forever

GENEVA, R - U. s. Delegate Frederick M. Eaton asked the To- nation disarmament conference yesterday to agree at once on the banning of weapons in outer space.
 He also called for auditing of missile flights and halt in pro- duction of nuclear materials for arms.
 Eaton told the delegations that such steps would give an impetus to their work in seeking general disarmament. He warned that the final banning of all weapons would not be accomplished all at once.
 He said he believed the confer ence could take steps now to deny the use of outer space to weapons of mass destruction forever.
 A reporting of missile flights to some center which would keep track of them would ease the chance of miscslculations that might start a war, he said.
 The Western powers say they are seeking a disarmament pact before scientists can develop nu- clear-armed space satellites.
 Speaking in the two-hour sec- ond working sesslon, Eaton said the conference should move al once into the problem of nuclear material
 He warned the five Communist powers = the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Romania and Bulgaria - that it is futile for them to believe the United States would ever enter any gen. reral disarmament agre m t which failed to contain central elements of control.
 He criticized the four-year deadline in the Soviet plan. It would be impossible, he declared, to accomplish responsible disarm- ament while working against such deadline.
 The Communist delegations, led by Soviet Foreign Minister Valer- ian Zorin, hold that the ultimate aim is complete and general dis armament" as stated in a reso- lution of the JUN. General As. sembly.

Former Anchorage Mayor Anderson Passes on Today

ANCHORAGE, R- Anton An derson, pioneer engineer and for mer mayor of Anchorage, died Wednesday in Mount Vernon, Wash.
 The 67-year-old New Zealander who came to the state in 1917, died after a two-year fight against Parkinson's disease. His wife, Alma, was with him.
 The funeral will be held Satur- day at 10 am. in Hoquiam, Wash, from the Coleman Funeral Parlor.

 q think l walked over more of Alaska than any man since Alfred Brooks" he once said. Brooks was the explorer for whom the Brooks Range was named.
 Anderson surveyed and engi- neered much of the Alaska Rail- road. He later became chief en- gineer of the line. He surveyed the original Anchorage townsite, was location engineer for the Mat anuska Valley colonization pro- ject, and principal engineer for the Army in Alaska during World War II.

New State Personnel Program Would Name Director to Regulate Civil Service
Friday. March, ls. 1860

JUNEAU, lR - Legislation to put a uniform personnel system into effect throughout the Alaska state government hears enactment in the states capitol.
 As the 1860 Legislative session draws to close, an assortment of bills relating to personnel and re- tirement programs are being drawn together.
 One of the key measures, pro- viding merit system for state government service, passed the Senate unanimously Wednesday The bill now goes back to the House for concurrence in Senate amendments.
 The measure calls for three classes of state employees. A uni form pay plan would affect all agencies of government. The bill does not detail a pay schedule, which would be drawn up later and put into effect by executive order. The 1861 Legislature would have power to approve or disap- prove the schedule.
 Administration of the new per sonnel program would be under director and a personnel board. Rules to regulate civil service em- ployment in the state would be made by the personnel director, subject to veto authority of the three-man board appointed by the Governor.
 Key state officials, including elected officers, judges and execu- tive department heads, would be exempt from the act.
 Partially exempt would be legis- lators, assistant department con- missioners, secretaries to depart ment heads and deputy attorneys general. They would be covered by standard pay scales and job classifications, but would not have to qualify for employment by examination nor would they be eligible for hearings in cases of dismissal, demotion or suspension.
 The third type of state employe would be the one in the so-called classified service. This group would include all state positions not covered by exempt or partial ly exempt status.
 Before the bill passed, a move to strike provisions regulating po- litical activity failed.
 Sen. Seaborn J. Buckalew Jr. D-Anchorage) tried to remove from the bill a section which would prevent any classified em- ploye from taking part in the di- rection of political campaign or the management of party affairs. The bill permits exempt or par tially exempt employees to hold political office and take part in directing party affairs.
 Also rejected was an amend ment which would have put state employees on 40-hour week. They
