She complained of being ill and was spitting blood. If convicted of kidnaping, Mrs. Ortiz can receive a sentence of 20 years to life in prison. The 29-day-old baby’s parents, Jose and Doralisa Tavarez, said they hoped Mrs. Ortiz would receive “a lot of assistance.’’ “But I can never forgive her for this deed she did," the 31-year-old, Dominican-born mother said. Johnny was reported getting along well at Roosevelt Hospital where he is being treated for an upper respiratory, infection and a mild infection Os the intestinal tract. He was expected to be well enough to be taken home next week. Mrs. Ortiz, who confessed the abduction after her arrest early Tuesday, told authorities she decided to steal a baby to replace the stillborn child she gave birth to last Tuesday. “It was because I lost my own baby," she said. “I nad to make it up to my husband.” Mrs. Ortiz has two sons and a daughter by two previous com-mon-law husbands. Mr. and Mrs. Decki D. Baron of Huntington, are the parents of a girl born Monday at 6:40 a.m. She weighed five pounds and nine ounces and has been named Kathy Jo.

Ike In Denial 9 OfßiftWith Chief Justice Brands Reparts Os Rift With Warren As Irresponsible WASHINGTON (UPD - President Eisenhower today branded as irresponsible a report of a rift with Chief Justice Eart Warren. He said he felt that if Warren had some criticism of his conduct of the presidency he was capable of telling the President himself The question of cool relations between the President and Warren was brought up in the chief executive’s news conference because of a story printed today by the New York Herald Tribune. The question about his relationship with Warren was prompted by a story by Robert J. Donovan, chief of the Herald Tribune’s Washington bure a u. Donovan wrote that'their relationship today "fit cold and distant and marred by disapproval on both sides." EisenhOwer spoke gravely and swiftly when he was asked about it. He said it was well known that he thought a chief executive should not offer his personal opinions on the actions of the high court and that he knew of no personal rift whatever between himself And Warren. Other news highlights at the President’s conference: —Responding to demands by key Republicans that he take a more decisive role in outlining the aims of the GOP, he said that if Republican leaders did not know what he stood for they had simply failed to read, as carefully as they should, six State of the Union messages and two platforms which the Republicans themselves drafted. —He would like to go to Mexico in the near future, but definite plans have not been made. —He said American production and development of intercontinental ballistic missiles was showing remarkable progress and should be a constant source of American pride, not any reason for hangdog humiliation. —As for the claim Tuesday that Russia is now mass-producing ICBMs, Eisenhower doubted whether 100 per cent credence in such statements was justified. —Eisenhower said he would welcome conferences at any time with Democrats, as well as Republicans, in Congress on pending legislation. He said the same held for governors from both parties. —He said he might meet former President Truman for the first time since the 1953 inauguration at a dinner here next month celebrating the 150th birthday of President Lincoln. Classroom Shortage Reported In Nation ”* WASHINGTON (UPD — Aadequate classroom space was lacking for 1,843,000 elementary and high school students at the start of the current school year, the Office of Education reports.

Disk Jockey Quits Sleep Marathon Two Others Still In Competition (United Press International) Two disk jockeys on a marathon race to stay awake longer than anyone were in the home stretch today. A third dropped Out with a headache. Red Evans of Tallahassee, Fla., quit his attempt to stay awake for 200 hours or longer after 190 hours and 43 minutes today. He began to develop a headache and a doctor suggested it might be prudent for him to drop out. The withdrawal of Evans, who had perviously announced ■he would try tor 216 hours, left New York’s standard bearer, Peter Tripp, and Dave Hunter of Jacksonville, Fla., still in the competition. Tripp passed his 191st hour without sleep at 10:14 a. m. today. At 7 o’clock tonight he’ll press a button opening the Mothers’ March of Dimes campaign in Times Square and shortly thereafter hopes to end his stint by falling asleep. Hunter has said he intends to outlast Tripp aqd claims he is defending a 187-hOUr stay awake record which he set last August. He says he has used no stimulants. Tripp, however, agreed to start taking pep pills two days ago in the interest of scientific research. Despite the pills, he has begun having visions of spiders spinning webs, mice, snakes and insects. This morning he had a swim and steam bath at the New York Athletic Club and was reported “holding up well."
