Sheppard Motions To Appeals Court Court Takes Move Under Advisement CLEVELAND (INS) — Two motions by convicted**wife-killer Dr. Sam Sheppard that he be freed on bail and retained in Cuyahoga county pending an appeal were taken under advisement today by the county court of appeals. Chief defense attorney William Corrigan told the court that he has hired "the foremost criminol ogist in the United States" to investigate the July 4 murder oi Marilyn Sheppard, and that Dr. Sam should »be released to aid in the probe. The criminologist was identified by Corrigan as Paul Kirk, professor of bio-chemistry and head of the criminology department at the University of California. Corrigan contended it was impossible for Dr. Sheppard to get help from police and other officials and added. "I need Dr. Sheppard free in order that this matter might be properly taken care of." The white-haired defense lawyer claimed that the state of Ohio did not prove Dr. Sam murdered bis wife. He also leveled another blast at the tremendous press coverage surrounding the Sheppard case, then, in contrast, read to the court several editorials from newspapers throughout the country which termed the verdict “a travesty of justice,” and a "miscarriage of justice.” He declared that all sentences, except those for treason and first degree murder, are indeterminate, and that, on that basis. Dr. Sheppard is entitled to bail. He also reminded the court that the 31-year-old osteopath was freed on 150,000 bail during the investigation. Meanwhile, Dr. Sam’s father, Dr. Richard A. Sheppard, is reported ‘ very, very poor” by his Dr. Richard N. Sheppard. The elder Dr. Sheppard, founder of Bay View hospital, is suffering from a lung condition.

Pitch Darkness In London On Sunday City Engulfed In Darkness Sunday LONDON (INS) —An accumulation of smoke under heavy cloudy layers’*or what one weather expert called “a pea souper holled up into a black pudding”-was blamed today for the pitch darkness which descended on Landon Sunday afternoon. The city was engulfed in darkness suddenly at about 1:30 in the afternoon. London residents, accustomed to ordinary fogs, groped their way through midnight blackness for a 20-mimrte period. Some people jumped to the conclusion that the end of the world hacf come and knelt in the street to pray pr simply began running and screaming. Others telephoned the weather bureau, the air ministry or other government agencies with questions ranging from whether it was an eclipse of the sun to whether a hydrogen bomb caused it. Traffic came to a halt in London’s streets after headlights failed to penetrate the smog. Ships dropped anchor in the Thames river, their pilots blinded by the darkness. ' An air ministry weather expert, who was kept busy answering the telephone, reported that “many people were really frightened," — The blackness cleared away as suddenly as it had come and London returned to a gray, but un afternoon^.... : Jr Kentucky Bank Is Ripped By Blast NICHOLASVILLE, Ky.

Western Pro Stars Defeat East Stars LOS ANGELES (INS) — Otto Graham, one of professional football's landmarks, hung up his shoes today after a final performance in the fifth annual Pro Bowl that fell short of a story book ending. Graham quarterbacked the Eastern squad through most of the game at Los Angeles coliseum but his team blew a two touchdown leatj aQ d tost to coach Buck Shaw's Western team 29-19. It would have been a fitting ending it Graham had been able to spark his team to victory, but Y. A. Tittle, the San Francisco 49ers* star quarterback was the player with the sharpshooting arm. The man who was there to receive Tittle's passes was the one w'ho was most responsible tor the West’s victory. That was San Francisco’s Billy Wilson who caught 11 passes for 157 yards and was voted the most valuable player of the game. At one time during the game the East held a 19-3 lead over the West on touchdowns by Ollie Matson, Norm Willey and Hugh Taylor. But Tittle passed for a pair of TD’s, one to Harlon Hill and another to Wilson and Doak Walker added a pair of field goals to tie the score up. The winning TD came after LaVern Torgeson Intercepted Adrian Burk's pass and ran it back 35 yards to the East 4. Joe Perry bucked over the winning tally. Prior to the game, which was witnessed by 43.792 fans who braved 'lntermittent* rain," the great Kansas miler Wes Santee was scheduled to attempt to break the tour minute mile. But the track was a ribbon of mud from the previous night’s rain and instead Santee, Bob McMillan and Jim Terrill an exhibition half-mile race that ended in a prearranged dead heat. *
