Girl Doctor-to-Be Puts
The Peace Corps First

The Peace Corps has taken
priority over plans to become
a doctor for an attractive
young medical technician at
George Washington University
Hospital.
But I don't care" says 81
year-old Anne Marie Flanagan,
who had planned to enter pre-
medical school this month but
is now slated to be a member
of a Peace Corps team going
to Thailand.
II look at this thing as a
tremendous education in itself.
I can finish my studies later" ,"
she said.
Miss Flanagan, of 1888 South
Twenty-eighth street, Arling-
ton, was to have entered Cath
olic University this fall. And
she says she won't let the trip
to Southeast Asia prevent her
from attaining her ultimate
goal of being a doctor.
A native of Boston and a
resident of the Washington
area for only year, Miss Flan-
agan said she applied to the
corps last April.
About three weeks ago, she
said, she finally received word
from the Peace Corps that she
was to go to Thailand as a
medical technician. First, how
ever, she will receive a 13-week

jury in Rees Murder Trial
To Begin DeIiberoting 7 Todoy

Mr.. Savage said with irony
that everybody living east of
the Mississippi. except the
jury. apparently has handled
them since they were found.
Il don't see how you can
deprive a man of his life and
liberty because of this piece
of plastic, Mr.. Savage said.
Reminding the jury the
State had shown no motive for
the crime, Mr.. Savage asked
the rhetorical question: Why
Rees would have put the pistol
back in the attic in his par
entS' home if he had a guilty
conscience.
If you believe the State, "
Mr.. Savage said, "Rees would
have left the murder scene
with pistol having no grips
on it. If he were a guilty man,
he would have thrown the gun
into the Potomac River"
Each side will have an op-
portunity for rebuttal. When
these arguments are COM
pleted, Judge Butzner will send
the jury, plus two alternate
jurors, across the street to the
Spotsylvania Volunteer Fir e
Department to begin deliber-
ating.

The principal of Woodrow

against future showings of a
film dealing with House Com
mittee's investigation of Com

James w. Suber said the film,
Operation Abolition" was
shown to two classes without
his knowledge. He said he was
not censuring the teachers
whose pupils saw the film, Mary
A. Gillespie and Beulah Jones,
for he had confidence in them

The film, showing how San

is proved beyond a reasonable
doubt" the judge continued.
If the jury has any doubt, it
is it's duty to give the defendant
the benefit of this doubt"
Burden of Proof
Noting that the evidence in
Virginia's case against ReeS
was purely circumstantial, the
Judge said the burden of proof
was on the Commonwealth and
said if there is any theory of in
nocence the jury must find
Rees innocent. He told the
Jury that Rees' failure to
testify is not a presumption
of guilt.
Commonwealth's Attorney T.
Stokeley Coleman, in a half
hour summation of the case,
declared the State rests its
entire case on Exhibit 40,
plastic pistol grips found near
the Jackson murder scene.
He recalled much of the evi-
dence presented through more
than 70 State witnesses, con-
centrating on the discovery OF
a SO caliber pistol in the home
of Rees' parents and the con-
tention of the prosecution that
the plastic grips fit the pistol.
1--WE have proved ReeS owned
the pistol" Mr.. Coleman de-
clared. "The FBI found human
blood on the grips and on the
gun. FBI laboratory expert
/ George Berley proved that the
gun and the grips were once
joined"
Referring to the Jackson
case as one of the worst crimes
ever committed in this State.
Mr.. Coleman told the jury, I'VE
have presented convincing
proof that Reese murdered Mr..
Jackson.
Due to the circumstances of
this case, ask you to find him
guilty of first degree murder
and fix the penalty as death. |"
Asks for Acquittal
, Defense Attorney Joseph l..
| Savage, jr., addressing the jury
after Mr.. Coleman was fin
/ ished, asked for an acquittal
on the basis that all the States
testimony did not show Rees
was the man who committed
the crime.
He attacked the testimony Of
Glen MoSer and accused him
of being suspicious and greedy.
He said Moser is a man of self
admitted violence. unhappy
and mlXed-up, more to II
pitied than believed and not a
man to be trusted.

Several Choices

Under Virginia law, the
jurors have several alternatives.
They can find the defend
ant not guilty, which would
result in his return to Federal
custody to resume serving his
life sentence.
Or. the jury can find Rees
guilty of murder in the first
degree and set any one or
three penalties: Death in the
electric chair, life imprison-
ment or a term of not less
than 20 years in prison.
The jury also can find Rees
guilty OF murder in the second
degree and set a sentence Of
not less than five or more
than 20 years in prison.
In Virginia, the jury alone
determines the punishment of
a convicted defendant; the
judge merely certifieS the jur-
ors' Judgment or sets a date
II the death penalty is imposed.
ReeS did not elect to appeal
his Baltimore conviction but he
has so days to appeal to the
Virginia Supreme Court of
Appeals if he is found guilty
here. If he is found not guilty
the Commonwealth has no ap-
peal.
A verdict Of death would
bring Attorney General Robert
+. Kennedy into the picture,
since Rees is a Federal prisoner
and presumably could not be
executed by Virginia without
the consent of the United
States Government.
Rees is accused Of kidnapping
Mr.. and Mrs. Jackson and their
two small daughters between
y and 10 pm, on January II,
1859, as they drove homeward
on Cherry Hill road from a
visit to Mrs. Mildred Jackson's
parents. Their car was found
abandoned the next day with
the keys in the ignition but it
was not until March 4 that the
first two bodies were found.

SPOTSYLVANIA, Va, Sept
28-A jury of 10 men and two
women is expected to go into
seclusion today in a little fire
house across the street from
the county courthouse to deter
mine the fate of Melvin D
Rees, ir., in the Staying OF
Carroll V. Jackson.
Judge John D. Butzner, jr.,
dismissing the panel yesterday,
told them to come to court this
morning with toilet articles
and night clothes so they
would be more comfortable if
their deliberations last into the
night.
Indications are that if the
jury does not reach a verdict
by a reasonable hour this eve
ming, they will be placed in a
nearby motel under guard for
the night. The prosecution is
seeking the death penalty.
Before the case went to the
jury on the ninth day of the
32-year-old Hyattsville mu-
Sician's murder trial, the court
gave instructions to the jury
and heard final arguments.
When Judge Butzner began
reading his 10-minute-long in
structions to the jury, it be-
came certain ReeS would not
take the stand as a witness
in his own defense. He also re-
mained silent at his trial in
Baltimore Federal Court last
winter which resulted in a
guilty verdict and a life sem
tence on twin kidnapping
charges.
Jury Gets Instructions
Under Virginia practice, the
judges instructions or charge
to the jury were delivered be-
fore opposing counsel made
their closing arguments.
You are the sole judges of
the credibility of the wit
nesses," Judge Butzner told the
jury.
He told the jury to remember
that circumStantial evidence is
legal and competent and saio
the jury can and should draw
reasonable inferenceS from
proven evidence.
If you believe beyond &
reasonable doubt that ReeS
killed Jackson deliberately anc
with malice aforethought, you
should find him guilty of first.
