But defense attorney Arthur interrupted to read into the record that Mrs Birmingham had wept at i the sight of the jacket. Apparently he wanted to imply that the state had staged the courtroom drama tics. Mrs. Birmingham had testified that she was called home from work the night Patricia disappear ed to find Babich and Kathleen seated together on the davenport, i |Her testimony was designed to show the youth’s reactions after the slaying. But Richter objected repeatedly when Mrs Birmingham sought to tell what the youth did or said in ' her absence. District attorney William McCauley had difficulty getting her to confine herself only to the facts of which she had personal knowledge I Babich contends that Patricia ’ died accidentally when she grabbed at a pistol he drew while trying to "scare" her Into silence about her sister's illicit pregnancy. Mrs. Birmingham said that as far as Rhe remembered, Babich i made no effort to help in the search for Patricia on the night she dis appeared. She said he never tried to console I her. In an attempt to determine whether Patricia was killed in a struggle, district attorney William McCauley asked Mrs. Birmingham whether any buttons were missing from the girl’s blouse when she left home. She said ’ no.’’ Two buttons were missing when the girl’s body was found. Earlier, the state tried to refute Babich’s story about where he | obtained the 38-pound block used to weight Patricia’s body In the river. Babich said he obtained it from a building project. But Frank Ctapiewski said he built 25 bouses in the project area and used no concrete blocks. Alfred Boelk, a salesman, said his firm delivered I only cinder blocks to Czaplewski Henry Nagy, president of an other building block company, said his firm delivered concrete blocks to a project very close to the Babich home. He said the slab fused to weight Patricia's body ; "looks very much like one of ours.” The state apparently offered the testimony as part of its effort to build up circumstantial evidence I that the slaying was deliberate, rather than accidental. To that end. Charles M Wilson, director of the Wisconsin state : crime laboratory, testified that , wire used to bind Patricia’s body to the block matched wire found in Babich's home VISHINSKY AND (Cant.

Red Sox Buy Hurling Star From Senators New York, Julie 14—(UP)— Owner Tom Yawkey of the Boston Red Sox. baseball's "Mr. Moneybag*." la no 20th century Betsy Ross, but he had a very special rea son for celebrating flag day today. For on this 172nd birthday of the Stars and Stripes the beaming, scheming Yawkey was doing a little flag designing of his own Distressed at the way Boston’s pitching fell apart on the western road trip Just concluded. Yawkey instructed his general manager Joe Cronin to work out a deal. Cronin, bolstered by the usual bountiful supply of Vawkey gold, went to the Washington Senators and nailed Walt .Masterson, a strong-armed right hander. It was a deal that could well mean the pennant. Masterson, a much sought-after young man by other American league clubs, also coat the Red Sox a wornout lefty. Mickey Harris, and Sam Mele, an outfielder who had a good year in 1947 but was a liability as a batter thereafter. Neither had helped the Red Sox much this season. After a late start because of an appendicitis operation, Masterson has been consistently effective and j has a record of three victories and | two losses. With tbe backing of i those big Red Sox bats, he should' be a regular winner, giving the club' the fourth top flight hurler It need ' ed behind Mel Parnell. Joe Dobson,! and Ellis Kinder. Manager Joe McCarthy also prob-' ably is counting upon Maurice' (Mickey) McDermott, the kid I strikeout star he recalled from Louisville to bolster his staff. McDermott, inclined to be erratic, had a 6-4 record there but one of his victories included a league record-, breaking 2u strikeout* and he ha* whiffed 116 batters In 68 innings. Tex Hughson is good for spot Jobs and the lamearmed Dave Ferrlss and Jack Kramer may be of help to the Red Sox later, but right now j Masterson looks like the big man j The Yankees, desperately need ing outfielder* and apparently not! having any luck deaiing (er any before tomorrow midnight’s trading ' deadline, brought back Charley I Keller from their Newark farm club, hgping that the former slugging star has recovered sufficiently from a torn side muscle to take over In a garden that is slready minus Joe DiMagglo end Johnny Lindell.
