Sheppard Jurors Are Interviewed Three Believe Tgst Might Be Helpful CLEVELAND' (UP) — Three of twelve jurors whose judgment brought conviction and a life prison sentence to Dr. Sam Sheppard indicated today a lie detector test might provide workable answers to potential new developments in the sensational murder case. Os the seven men and five women who sat through the gruelling nine-week trial at Cuyahoga County's hikeside courthouse in 1954, seven refused to discuss the current or past developments of the case. Two others since have left Cleveland. The ten jurors were asked: —Do you believe Sam Sheppard should be given a lie detector test? '’ , —Do you believe, on the basis of recent developments, that the Sheppard case should be reopened? ' I " “I don't know the legal value cf a lie detector test,” explained juror No. 8, Mrs, Beatrice P. Orenstein, 39 “I feel that if new evidence comes up, I’ll be glad tor his (Sheppard’s) sake. I don’t mean to imply that I think there is any new evidence. I have no doubt we did our jobs fairly. If something j does come out it should be ini vestigated. But I have a lot of confidence in (Cuyahoga County) Coroner Samuel Gerber. And if 1 can't trust him as a public official I don't know who else I could believe.” Jack Hansen, 39, jurpr No. 6, said: “We may have made a I mistake, but I don’t think so. Os I course, I’m interested in any developments in the case, and I feel any good clues should be investigated,” Hansen said he was I “certainly glad the higher courts upheld our verdict,” adding “I still think he was guilty on the evidence presented us.” IMPLIES ROAD (Coßtlaurd front fa»e Ote) I anapolis on such charges as I bribery, embezzlement and conI spiracy to steal public funds. The subcommittee was created I last winter, shortly after John Peters became highway chairman after Governor Handley succeeded Craig. Peters said he found the department in a “mess” and his revelations stirred the Legislature to atcion Within a month after the Legislature adjourned for two years, newspapers broke stories of | scandals in buying 1 and in purchase of equipment and supplies. Steele said the committee will study legislation and proposed legislation on right-of-way buying, equipment buying, contract letting and, if it has time, county highway departments. ■« . '■. ■• '‘There is no question there have j been abuses on the county level," Steele said. Steele said he believes one helpful new law would be a requirement that the highway department publish the names of buyers and sellers of highway right-of-way and the purchase prices. Shortly after it organized, the subcommittee began hearing suggestions from highway department spokesmen, met briefly before lunch with Governor Handley, and planned to continue discussions this afternoon. The first to appear was Peters, who proposed changing the highway department’s fiscal year from July 1 to Jan. 1. Peters said this would prevent one administration from spending aU its appropriations before its term expired six I months before the end of the fiscal year. I When Peters took office last Jan. 15, he said he found that a right-of-way fund which had contained millions for the fiscal year had dwindled to scarcely SI,OOO because the previous administration had spent mast of the money | in the first half of the fiscal year.

I Names Successor To j Embezzling Officer To Delay Pay For County Employes CANNELTON, Ind. <UP>—Harried Perry* County officials late Wednesday named Russell Underhill, Doolittle Mills storekeeper, treasurer to succeed confessed i ! embezzler Earl Kieser and requested county employes not to icash last week’s pay checks until ■' the county has sufficient funds. County officials said there is only $2,900 in the treasury as the result of Kieser’s theft of $2.00,000. County Atty. D.C. Goble said Kieser was bonded for $50,000 and the county is hoping for a quick refund by the bonding company. He said the .county will be getting “about $60,000” from the state in gasoline tax refunds shortly and “that will help” Goble said the SIIO,OOO may carry the county until the fall tax installment comes in. “If not, he said, “we'4l have to float a bond issue.” But a short time later, the bonding company said it would not pay Kieser’s bond until a complete audit reveals he actually took $50,000 or more. It was not immediately known how long a complete audit would take. . Cannelton residents were sympathetic with the 34-year-old Kieser when the embezzlement was first revealed earlier this week. But the sympathy changed to anger when officials said county employes would not be paid until a future date. They were particularly resentful of the fact that Kieser owned 3 $20,000 home, an $8,500 private airplane, an air conditioned automobile, a foreign sports car and a brand-new station wagon. All three vehicles were reclaimed by auto firms shortly after Kieser confessed the thefts. Kieser is free on $25,000 bond pending arraignment. He is specifically charged with embezzling SSOO in the last month.
