Admits Planning Own Crucifixion Admits Act Planned As Publicity Stunt Chicago, March 15—(UP) I —Fred Walcher, the 44-year-old tavern porter who police lielieve planned hte own crucifixion, admitted It today. When Walcher appeared in municipal court, judge Victor Kula ask ed why he sillbinitted to the ordeal. ”So many of the boys were dying overseas that 1 thought I would do something for my country,” the aeedy-looking defendant replied. He gestured with bandaged hands, noiw healing from tilie holes made by the naite with which he was hung to a cross Friday. Judge Kola continued the disorderly conduct charge until March 29 and placed Walcher in the custody of liavid Rottiiran, court psychiatrist. Walcher, who has changed his original story of forcible crucifixion several times, changed it aguin today. Earler, he had said he could identify the three men he claims hung him on the cross. Today lie told the court it was dark at the time and he didn't eee their faces. iPoMce said they •were convinced from the time they first removed Walcher from the cross that he willingly stitailtited as a stunt to publicize his vague world bettermen 1. plan.
11-TONBOMBS (Continued From Page One) devastating effect over a radius of “literally hundreds of yards.” It should do 10 times more damage than a one-ton bomlb because the extent of damage multiplies more rapidly than the irfcreaee in tonna'ge, they said. The bonrb, nearly twice as heavy as the largest Ironitb heretofore used, is 25 feet five inches long and has a diaimeter of three feet 10 inches. It was designed primarily for attacks on underground structures. ISome idea of its devastating possibilities can be seen in the fact that its six-ton predecessors sank Germany’s super-hafitleship Tirpitz, penetrated the 15-foot thick concrete roofs of U-hoat shelters and lore craters 100 feet wide across tho SaiHnur railway tunnel in France.

Kills Son Because Os Service_Discharge South Bend, Ind., Mar. 15.—(UP) —South Bend police said today that Ferdinand Joseph Sygler, 43, shot and killed his 17-ycar-old son, John, because the youth's dishonorable discharge from the merchant marine "caused a black mark on the family name.” Sygler was arrested last night when a daughter, Helen, called officers. Sygler had attempted to kill himself, police said, but the .22 calibre rifle had jammed. The daughter told police that her brother had been dishonorably discharged two months ago because "he always overstayed his leave.” The boy and his father hafl quarreled constantly ever since, she said. 0 • Alexandria, La.

The industry has become an integral part of the agricultural and economkNife of Ohio—a vital and great institution. It has a history that is rich in tradition and achievement, which it seeks to continue in the future. In its plans are embodied, as always, a program for the betterment of the Ohio farmer and Ohio agriculture. It produced 27,923,000 pounds of sugar in 1943 and 34,6/1,000 pounds in 1944. Every pound was VITALLY needed for the prosecution of the war. Given the support of the farmer and townsman, the industry can produce 125,000,000 pounds of sugar in 1945. It has the factory capacity for that much, and more—PROVIDING THE FARMERS IN 26 NORTHWESTERN OHIO COUNTIES GROW THE SUGAR BEETS. The 1945 Ohio goal is 50,000 planted acres. Sugar-beet prices are the highest in history. We repeat, the nation's need for sugar is urgent, and the best, quickest and surest way to get it is to produce *»he maximum amount here at home. SO LET'S DO THE JOB! To the townsman we say 'Talk this over with your farmer friend or acquaintance. Encourage him to grow sugar beets in 1945." To the farmer we say "Plan not only for the maximum acreage, but for maximum yields. Insure high net returns from your land and perform a service for the nation as well. Get in touch with your factory fieldman and SIGN ’ UP FOR SUGAR BEETS NOW!" THE OHIO SUGAR BEET COMMITTEE Carl S. Bittner, Publicity Chairman Oak Harbor, Ohio # A, ffisCk
