Oral Arguments In ■ Murder Case Today Abide By Doctors On Date For Trial INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Connie Nichols’ personal physician has indicated that she probably will be physically able to stand trial “within a few weeks” for the slaying of her wealthy married lover. Oral arguments on a defense motion to quash a first-degree murder indictment charging Mrs. Nicholas with the gun death of 54-year-old Forrest Teel, executive vice president of a major drug frim, are set for today in Marion County Criminal Court No. 1. But both the defense and the prosecution have said they will abide by the decision of the 42-year-old divorcee’s physician in the matter of asking Judge Saul Rabb for a specific trial date. The ■ bullets which killed the handsome Eli Lilly and Company vice president July 31 admittedly were fired by a gun belonging to Mrs. Nicholas during an argument in the front seat of Teel's white Cadillac shortly after he left the apartment of a newer, younger woman friend. Injured In Struggle? Mrs. Nicholas has claimed she was injured during a struggle over the gun. The prosecution has indicated it will seek to prove her injuries resulted from an overdose of barbiturates in an unsuccessful suicide attempt and the position in which she lay for j nearly 20 hours in her car before she was found. Her personal physician, Dr. Thomas Rafalski, said Monday that his patient may require surgery as a result of her injuries and that a medical conference to determine her readiness for trial is to be held this week. “Mrs. Nicholas may be ready to stand trial, now, I don’t know,” said the doctor. “But I would imagine she probably will be ready within a few weeks. My decision will depend upon the findings made this week. More than one of us is making that decision.” The physician said a neurologist and a physical therapist are also to take part in the decision with him. He said a decision on “when and what type of surgery” may be needed to remedy the contraction of fingers on her left hand also is to be made. Left Hand Trouble The physician explained that in addition to a paralyzed right arm and an injured right eye. received by his patient and apparent from the time of her hospital admission, she also has an involvment of her left hand which became apparent “four to six weeks ago." At the time the petite divorcee was in court on a preliminary appearance last Tuesday, she had a splint on one of the fingers of her left hand. The physician said a splint is being used intermittently in an effort to prevent contraction but that this treatment is difficul because of the pain involved. Therefore, he said, surgery is a possibility.

Jddge Rabb said he would decide just before, the scheduled arguments on the quash motion whether or not Mrs. Nicholas will be brought into court Tuesday. The accused slayer is held un)der contention in Indianapolis General Hospital and takes daily physical therapy treatments. May Ask Recall Os Little Rock Board Seeking Ouster Os Heads Os Schools LITTLE ROCK, Ark. <UPI> — Officials of the segregationist Mothers' League of Central High meet today with lawyers to decide whether to file immediately a petition for an election to recall four of the six members of the Little Rock"school board, Mrs. Margaret Jackson, president of the league, said the group has 9.500 signatures on their petitions, 3,000 more than they need. But she said she is not sure it would be a good idea to file the petitions and demand the election immediately. Mrs. Jackson said she thinks it might be better from a standpoint of saving money to hold a recall election along with the general election Nov. 4. The league wants to bust the four members because it feels they are integrationists at heart. Poll Shows Recall Favored Once the petitions have been filed with the County clerk, the County Board of Election Commissioners must certify the petitions within three days then call an election within 10 days. A poll completed Monday, it was learned, indicated that 66 per cent of the people of Little Rock favor the recall of the four school board members. Meanwhile, about 300 members of the Arkansas Council of Methodist Laymen met in Little Rock Monday night and adopted a “statement of purpose” which said the national policy of the church was in conflict with their beliefs regarding integration. “Consideration should be given to reconstituting the Methodist Church in the South if the present governing body of the church insists on actions and policies in conflict" with Southern thinking, the statement said. The pronouncement said the members “do not approve of use of church organizations or facilities or promoted socialistic, Communistic/atheistic theories or unamerican activities as is now beng done.” Former Arkansas Gov. Homer M. Adkins said he was “more worried about Communist infiltration of our church then about integration, although they go together.” Two Little Rock churches began classes for 76 students Monday and a third church made ready such a school to take up slack for part of the more than 3,000 high school students of Little Rock who are in their seventh week without schooling.' More than 600 have transferred to schools as far away as Los Angeles and West Germany.

Drug-Testers Given Warning By Doctor Contradictions Are Produced By Tests By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor NEW YORK (UPD— Scientists who test drugs on people must avoid any idea that people are things suspended in sterile solutions in bottles and will react in standard ways to the pills and injections which doctors put into them. In asserting that is not so, Dr. Alan P. Leveton of the University of California MediCal Center, San Francisco, implied at least some scientific drug-testers mistake people for bottled laboratory specimens. He referred to widespread testing of mood-changing drugs. From the results, you could think (1) that only drugs are capable of changing moods or <2l that drugs have no power to change moods. This is the most extreme of the contradictions the tests have produced. How about that potent mood-changer, the doctor himself? Leveton asked. He may believe the mind’s workings are physical on the ground that the mind resides in an organ, the brain. Or he may believe mental workings are basically psychological because he seees the mind as something shaped by the, person’s experiences from birth. Mood Can Change If he believes the first way. he’ll expect the drug which he is testing to work. But if he believes the second way, he won’t have any faith in the drug. This, Leveton said, makes the difference between "an optimistic, enthusiastic worker or a cautious, pessimistic one.” The doctor s mood can change or adjust the moods of the technicians, nurses, and hospital attendants who are assisting him in testing the particular drug. The patient in whom the drug is being tested thus are surrounded by moods which can work on their moods. Then take the moods of the patients which are being tested chemically. Do the patients trust the hospital staff or don’t they? Are they in a state mental hospital which really is a “poor farm” or in a hospital where illnesses actually are treated? Are they dealt with as human beings or are they merely objects which the staff must somehow keep quiet, clean and orderly? Determines Effect One or more of these wholly ■ non-chemical considerations establishes the existing moods of the] patients and determines to some extent whether the drug being tested will have the helpful effect anticipated or a harmful effect or no effect at all. Leveton reminded the drug-test-ers of certain embarrassing occurrufences in the history of scientific drug-testing. One of these was when a group of mental patients were given no drugs whatever for seven months to see just how bad they’d get without any medication. They all got better.

In 1925 the technical Journal of the American Psychiatric Association published a doctor's rhapsodic praise of what was then a new : drug which was said to tranquilize ; disorderly mental patients. Levej ton pointed out it was indistinj guishable from rhapsodic praise; of the present day tranquilizing ; ; drugs in current technical jqur-| nals. The rub is that the 1925 drug now is considered worthless (for mental disturbances) and also dangerous. However, the journal which published the 1925 mistaken appraisal, also published Leve- | ton's warning to drug-testers.
