Dr. Bernard Finch and Carol Tregoff Sentenced To Life Imprisonment

LOS ANGELES R - pr. Ser hard Finch and his former mis- tress, Carole Tregoff, today were formally sentenced to life im- prisonment for the murder of his socialite wife.
 The judge said the evidence of their guilt seemed to him over Whelmingly.
 The penalty was decreed last March 27 by a jury, which could have sent them to the gas cham Der.
 Before passing sentence, Su- perior Court Judge David Cole man denied motions by each de- fendant for new trial.
 The lovers stood without ap- parent motion for a moment, then exchanged wan smiles as they went their separate ways to re- turn to jail.
 Judge Coleman called their de- fense "a shoddy and crudely woven fabric of deceit"
 The oncewealthy West Covina physician, 43, and his 24-year- old sweetheart were convicted in their third trial of conspiracy and murder in the July IS, 1859, bull let-in-the-bacl staying of Finch's socialite wife, Barbara Jean, 36. The juries at the first two trials deadlocked.
 Attorneys for both defendants have said they will appeal.

Protests Bring
Z Hunting Bans
In Fuifux County

A group of Fairfax County
citizens went hunting for
hunters yesterday and came
back with two trophies.
They complained that some
riflemen ignored mo hunting"
signs, tramped across private
property and crippled animals.
And their complaints led the
Board of County Supervisors to
prohibit hunting in two ad-
ditional areas of the county.
In a unanimous action the
supervisors put the Burke
Regional Park off limits to
hunters and extended the area
where hunting is prohibited
southwark to Pohick Creek and
across to Shirley highway. The
area includes West Springfield
and nearby areas.
During a two-hour hearing,
one speaker, Mrs. Mark john
son said she was forced to
keep a shotgun beside her
which she fired in the air from
time to time to scare off hunters
on her property near the Dulles
International Airport. On one
occasion, she said, hunters shot
through the window of her
home.
other speakers, however
urged that hunting be permit
ted in the county and that re-
sponsible hunters not be pun
ished for the actions Of the ir-
responsible.
