what-is-it, “The Verdict Is Your,” makes its debut. It’ll be a courtroom drama, but vfith a difference; .‘‘The lawyers on the show will be real lawyers. The judge will be a real judge. The courtroom stenographer will be a real stenographer* And the jury will be picked from the studio audience, a reasonable approximation of people. “The only parts that’ll be taken

i by actors will be those of the plaintiff, defendant and witnesses,” explained Jim McKay who’ll lace each trial together. McKay, a member of the CBS news and sports Staffs for seven years, will act as a king of reporter during each make - believe case. No Scripts Planned “What we're going to do is. make up theoretical cases — the first one will be a child custody

I . dispute.” continued McKay. "The actors will be briefed on the basic situation and they’ll have conferences with their lawyers before the show goes on. “But there'll bo no script. Everybody wil) be on his own once the show goes on the air. I’ll adlib my part, too. We hope the show will combine the best quali- . ties of drama and the Kefauver crime hearings.” The 30-minute Monday-through-

Frjday show won’t fix any time limit on its cases, according to McKay. A case will be carried for a week, two weeks or even longer if the lawyers got involved in legal razzle-dazzle. CBS Auditioning Lawyers The lawyers and judge will be changed with each case. Thus far, CBS has auditioned about 150 lawyers in this area in an effort to turn up a batch with camera appeal

“They're fixing up a little booth > on stage for me they’re going to cal Ithe press room," said the 36-year-old McKay. "I’ll operate out of it or conduct interviews or even go in the judge’s chamber — wherever anything seerhs to be cooking. McKay believes “The Verdict Is Yours” will shoot some juice into afternoon programming, pretty much of a wasteland right now. “And we think it’s certainly go-

ing to be different in its approach than the regular run of daytime shows — once we get going, we may really create quite a stir." ROBINSON, 111. (UP) — Ray Waters and Lavon Hayes, both 15, of Alabama, fled barefoot from Crawford County jail, where they were held on a burglary charge. ITiey were captured 45 minutes ’ater and were put in solitary confinement.

60-Year Old Tells How To Keep Fit By RAYMOND R. COFFEY United Press Staff Correspondent SPRINGFIELD, Hl (UP)—How does a man near 60 keep himself in shape to climb the highest peak in every state in the union? Nothing to it. "I do calisthenics every night and every morning—deep knee bends,” Rev. F.W. McDermott said today. He also mows his lawn. At least that is what he was doing when a reporter called on him to talk about his mountain climbing exploits. , The Baptist minister climbed his first mountain back in 1922 when he was a young man of 24. Two weeks ago at 59—he’ll be 60 in January—he scaled the 12.850 foot high Granite Peak in Montana to complete his objective of climbing the highest peak in every state. In the week before he climbed Granite Peak, the Rev. Mr. McDermott scaled both Mt. Borah in Idaho and Gannett Peak in Wyoming He grew up in the Midwest where there are not many mountains. He said he started climbing “soon after I saw my first mountain” while on a trip into Virginia selling books to earn his way through college. Got Out the Map He climbed the Peaks of Otter on that trip. Later he was assigned to churches int New York state and he and a friend started to climb the highest mounhin in every New England state. He climbed Mt. Marcy, the highest peak in New York, “about a dozen times.” Then in 1929 on a family vacation he scaled Mt. Mitchell in North Carolina, the highest peak east of the Mississippi River. Suddenly a few years ago. he said, he realized he had climbed the highest peak in about half the states. “Then I got out a map, blacked out the states I had covered and started eliminating those I hadn’t, taking in some of them each summer.” The map is all blacked out now. About this time the Rev. MrMcDermott’s children, three daughters and a son, started accompanying him on some of the climbs. , o “My youngest daughter, she s 19 and married, has done more cli m l > * ing with me than the others, he said. “She has been to 17 state summits with me.” He climbed Mt. Hood with his son, Edwin, in 1951. Climbed Charles Mound Some state summits were easy, he conceded. The highest point in Florida is 365 feet above sea level and there is no noticable rise in the ground at the marker indicating the highest point. The highest point in Illinois was 1,240-foot high Charles Mound, about a quarter of a mile from the Wisconsin border. , And in Wisconsin, the minister “chased the highest point all over the state.” At various times, he said Blue Mounds, Ridge Hill and Sugar Bush Hill all have been designated the highest point in the state. To make sure, he climbed He said he has climbed all the tough mountains, including Mt Rainier and Mt. Whitney, m the last three <tr four years. From the standpoint of endurance I would say Rainier is the toughest mountain I ever climbed.” The Rev. Mr. McDermott is a slim, medium-sized man with a small mustache, which is turning gray like his hair. He-Mes! wife, Helen, are expecting their fourth grandchild soon. They moved here recently from Alton. When he was assigned as e * e^ u " tive secretary of institutional budgets for the Illinois Baptist Convention- - ' The Insurance Company of North American, chartered in 1794, was the first general insurance company to sell life insurance in America. In five years only six policies were issued and the company discontinued business in 1804. . Just Received .. • > Shipment OF NEW FALL COSTUME JEWELRY sl-00 up John Brecht Jewelry 226 N. 2nd Street
