British Osteopath
 Stephen Ward Will Stand Trial on Vice Charges

LONDON R - A magistrates court today ordered Dr. Stephen Ward to stand trial on vice charges after hearing a long series of party girls tell how he helped them play for pay with partners including former War Minister John Pro- fumo and millionaire Lord Astor.
 The trial, where Wards defense is expected to explode new shock on an already-battered Britain, tentatively was set for September.
 In the meantime, the court freed Ward - who proclaimed T deny all the charges completely" - on 2,000 pounds ($5,6OO) bail and the 50-year-old osteopath left the court in a taxi.
 He declined to say where he was going
 The last hours of the three-day pre-trial hearing saw convicted prostitute Margaret Ricardo hint at weird sexual rites at one of Wards London apartments. An other girl, unidentified, claimed Ward got her pregnant and then she had an abortion at his flat with Christine Keeler present.
 Christine, 21-year-old, self styled model whose simultaneous relations with Profumo and Soviet naval attache Yevgeny Ivanov al most toppled Prime Minister liar old MacMillan's government, was the star of Wards galaxy of pro- tegees.
 Miss Ricardo refused to describe the nature of sexual performance she conceded having had with at least one man at the Ward resi- dence.
 There already are eight charges against Ward, including managing i a brOthel, living off the proceeds of prostitution, procuring underage l girls for men and aiding abor- tionS.

 The Gay car was parked out side and the soldier began firing at it. Gay got his family out the other side but his wife and son were cut with fragments of glass and bullets.
 Schlomann then ran into the rink, where the occupants had taken refuge in the basement and rest rooms. He fired wildly through the floor trying to hit those below. Then he tried to force open a rest room door and encountered Pvt Adams, who he tried to kill but the gun missed. Adams hand was cut in a struggle as Schlomann hacked at him with his knife.
