Hearing Wednesday On Student's Death MIAMI (UPD — A preliminary hearing will be held Wednesday to determine if a motel owner should be held in the fatal shooting of a college honor student and water ski champion from Indiana. First-degree murder charges already have been filed in a warrant against Vincent Carbone, 54, who said he shot the student after mistaking him for a burglar. The victim was Edward Thomas Coblentz, 24, an all-A student at the University of Miami and one of the nation's finest water skiiers. He was the son of a prominent Fort Wayne, Ind., architect. Peace Justice Francis J. Christie called for the hearing to decide if Carbone should be held, or if the shooting was justified. Carbone, who shot another man to death when he was a night watchman in New Jersey in 1928, told police he saw the student peeking into a guest room window at his small motel Sunday.morning. Then he said he saw the youth try to enter a parked car. Carbone opened fire, he said, when the student refused a warning to stop. However, detectives said young Coblentz obeyed Carbone’s shouted orders. “He couldn’t run because he wss. fenced. M,by the motelbuilding and the’ parked! cars in front of it," said homicide detective Charles M. Shepherd. Coblentz mumbled a few words to police before he died, but officers refused to revea the dying statementl prior to the inquest. The victim was the son of Raph Coblentz, an architectural engineer with A.M Strauss Associates of Fort Wayne, Ind. Friends and university officials said he was engaged to a Miami coed, Betty Gwyn Crowe, the daughter of a former federal district judge from Kentucky. However, the girl told newsmen by phone last night they had not made any wedding plans but were just “going steady.” Carbone was cleared of murder charges in New Jersey in 1929 after he shot former Kenilworth, N.J., policeman George Ridge. Carbone claimed Ridge attacked him with a razor while both were serving as night watchmen on a construction site. Scotts Go To Alaska Local relatives have received word that Ist Sgt. Lawrence Scott has been transferred from Travis Air Force Base, Caliornia, to Elemdorf Air Force base at Anchorage, Alaska. Sgt. Scott’s wife and two sons will accompany him for a three-year period.

1959 Good Year For Indiana Democrats By Eugene j. cadou United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — The year 1959 was a good one for Indiana Democrats. The terrific Democratic sweep in the city elections last November heartened the party leaders, as did the victory in the senaorial and state balloting the year before. ' >y The upshot of the municipal triumphs was the continuation of strong Democratic city organizations with workers paid by the taxpayers. These city machines are bound to help the Democrats in the big 1960 campaign. Hoosier Republicans have been licking their wounds since November. State Chairman Robert W. Matthews resigned after his statement indirectly attacking Social Security was blamed for the loss of thousands of GOP votes in Indianapolis and in other large cities. Four-Party System The four-party system remained in sway during the«year, with two Democratic and two GOP factions fighting it outThere was a “battle of the giants” between Democratic National Chairman Paul M. Butler, South Bend, and a former national chairman, Frank McKinney, Indianapolis. Butler seemed to be blocking McKinney’s pet gubernatorial candidate, Sen. Matthew E. Welsh, Vincennes, and many observers believed that the South Bend man would support Secretary of State John R. Walsh, Anderson, for that nomination. The lineup among the Republicans was Statehouse versus outsiders. The Statehouse leaders included Governor Handley, Lt. Gov. Crawford F. Parker, former Sen. William E. Jenner and State Chairman Edwin Beaman. In the ranks of thqopposition were Sen. Homer E. Capehart, who suspects the Statehouse group of plotting to prevent his renomination in 1962u Congressman Charles A. Halleck, former Gov- Ralph F. Gates and Sen. Roy Conrad, Monticello. McKinney Backs Symington -McKinney also took a hand tathe presidential situation. He made progress in lining up Hoosier support for the White House bid of Sen. Stuart Symington of Missouri. Butler is reported to favor another chance ofr Adlai Stevenson. „ The Statehouse Republicans went to bat strongly for VicePresident Richard M. Nixon for President while Sen. Capehart and Sen. Conrad came out openly for New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller. But Gates is for Nixon and Halleck told the world that he wouldnt turn down a vice-presi-dential nomination. Handley was one of the first three goverors to speak out for Nixon, who is far in front with Indiana’s- delegates, despite the pleasant visit of Rockefeller to South Bend on Dec. 12. Both Symington and Nixon made numerous trips to Indiana during the year and by this time probably have learned how to spell “Mississinewa” and "RensIt wasn’t a great political year for Indiana, but it was a rather interesting warmup for the big battle of 1960. o—--20 Years Ago Today - Dec. 29, 1939—The Decatur ministerial association will sponsor special week of prayer services Monday through Friday nights next week. More than 1,200 persons attended the McMillen Industries family party, held at the Decatur high school auditorium last night. Joe Bell, of is visiting friends and relatives in Decatur. The 57th annual meeting of stockholders of the First State Bank will be held next Tuesday. Unofficial reports say death toll from series of earthquakes in Turkey may approach 100,000.
