Illinois Killer's Trial Opens Today Father Os Two On Trial For Murder Rockford, 111., Jan. IZ —(UP) — Glenn Marsh, 27-year-old father of two children, goes on trial for his life today, charged with killing his paramour’s husband and father. Slate’s attorney Max Weston said he would demand the death penalty. Marsh has confessed that he killed Vernon Anderson, 28, and Grant Muhrlein, 52, last Nov. 7. He said he became enraged when Anderson’s wife, Katherine, 26, “made up” with her husband after promising to get a divorce and marry him. In his fury, he shot his sweetheart’s husband and father to death and then kidnaped her. She escaped from him at Morris, 111., after a wild 100-mile automobile ride. He surrendered several days later. Mrs. Anderson, the mother of three children, remained aloof from her former lover today. But his wife, Audrey, 27, said she would stand by him despite his torrid affair with Mrs. Anderson. The Anderson and Marsh families were next door neighbors on small farms north of Rockford. Both Anderson and Marsh worked in factories and farmed in their spare time. Anderson worked nights and Marsh visited his wife frequently “to keep her company.” "I thought I was in love with Glenn once, but that is all over now,” Mrs. Anderson said after the shooting. Marsh's wife said she forgave her husband even though he and Mrs. Anderson had “carried on like 16-year-olds.” She said she did not consider him “entirely to blame because it takes two to make a bargain.” The Rev. Carl Smucker, who has visited Marsh in his cell, said that Marsh had awaited his trial calmly. “He got religion in jail and has read the Bible constantly,” the minister said. “He’s gotten a lot off his chest during his conversations with me.”

Despit° Marsh’s calm attitude, officials said they had taken “every precaution to prevent him from committing suicide. His necktie,

Brock was attended by good audiences both morning and evening. Rev. Brock spoke on “According to You” at the morning service and on “Human Inequalities versus Divine Universalities” at the evening hour. He announced as his subject tonight, "Spiritual Superlatives.” The Brocks introduced their latest gospel song during the day and said that they would present each person who attends the service tonight with a copy of a song folder containing this song and two others which are their most recent compositions. They will also sing their best known gospel song, “Beyond the Sunset,” which now ranks close to "The Old Rugged Cross” and “In the Garden,” according to a recent radio report on the 10 most popular gospel songs. The attendance at the Sunday school showed a marked increase yesterday and the Rev. Earl Isenhower, pastor of the church, offered a new Bible to the teacher of the class which first reaches an attendance of 25. Several classes indicated their interest in competing for the reward next Sunday when the goal of 100 for the entire school is expected to be overreached. The revival will continue all of this week and next. No services will be held on Saturday nights. 0 Reidenbach Closes Local Fruit Market Paul Reidenbach, local fruit store proprietor is closing out his business on North Second street.

Marshall said the European recovery program would be "intimately related” to American foreign policy and would become "the most important single expression of American foreign relationships” in that part of the world. He said he was “virtually interested” in finding the best possible organization and management for the program. • “In its operations.” he said, "it must be primarily a business, technical and engineering job.” Marshall's statement was short and for the most part a general recaptitulation of what he told the senate last week. 0 BANK IN TEL AVIV (Continued from Page 1) occasional bursts of sniper fire, opened a temporary lane for pedestrians.
