They will probably end up on the drain and coffee table* of some of Russia » highest officials as a reminder of • day well .pent with Americana in the City of Brotherly Love. The little bells, all Inscribed with the Soviet official*’ names and the date of their visit, were presented to the Russian guestt ut a dinner in their honor given by the city Tuesday night. Elnd America Stimulating The Russians saw most of the city in one day. They visit Charleston, WVa . today. They have been exposed to a great deal during the five days since they arrived in the United .States for a 24-day visit. It is. perhaps, not too early to look for their first reactions to this country. Their faces and their comments show that they find America stimulating. In relaxed moments, the less inhibited of them come right

Dr. Finch Scheduled For Testimony Today LOS ANGELES 'UPD - Dr R Bernard Finch, a- man who had a black-haired sun-tanned wife, a red-haired mistress and a $750,000 fortune, tells today how he shot his wife to death. The 42 - year -old surgeon was scheduled to describe in court for the first time the events of July 18. He will testify following the opening statement of his defense lawyer, Grant Cooper, n The state rested its rose Tuesday on a definite upswung for the defense. - The" Odds Change Five weeks ago most people wouldn't have bet an avocado on the chances for Finch and his. mistress. Today, the odds have swung far more in their favor. Miss Tregoff. a 23 - year -old woman with a big smile on her face after Tuesday’s developments was in a better spot than the doctor who discarded his wife in her favor. Finch admittedly fired the shot in the back that brought the death of Mrs. Barbara Jean Finch 33. The seven - woman, five - man jury heard the statements Carole made shortly after the shooting. She gave them a picture of her as a third woman who drove to the West Covina, Calif . Finch home solely to reason with an unreasonable wife. Her statements left Finch still in trouble. Says Finch “Dased” Carole said abe had become

Ruled out of evidence was her subsequent admission that she carried a “murder kit" up the driveway to the Finch home. Ignored was the testimony of convict John Patrick Cody that the doctor and Carole hired him for $1,400 to kill Mrs. Finch. But Carole did offer an explanation fostFincn She said’ they had gone to the home unarmed. Mrs Finch drew a gun and pointed it at Carole, she said. Finch "jumped” forward to disarm his wife. Carole fled and saw no more though she heard Finch saving "please” and the sound of two gunshots. panickv. She hid m the bushes nearby for six hours until she finally slipped away and fled back to Las Vegas where she found Finch with no memory whatsoever of shooting his wife. “He was dazed.” she said. Whether, the jury believes that storv depends largely on the one that' Finch tells. But there was no question Carole and Finch have moved a number of steps awao from California’s gas chamber, ; Merchants Warned On Stolen Checks City police today urged local merchants and store owners to be on the lookout for checks from the Haynes and Haynes Construction Co. of Elkhart The checks were stolen from the firm and are appearing in the area.

Legislator Warns Justices Os Peace INDIANAPOLIS <UPI> — Indiana’s justices of the peace were warned today to clean up "their own house" or face legislative action. The warning was sounded late | Tuesday by Sen. Ruel W. Steele |R-Bedford> before the Indiana Legislative Advisory Commission following testimony of unethical and illegal practices. I The commission was told that some counties hire special con-[ stables who slap .a summons on a defendant even before action is filed against him in JP court. “The only way to clean up JPs is to cut their jurisdiction,” said Steele. “They better clean up their own house, or we're going to have to do something.” Philip G. Van Metre, president of the Indiana Constables Association. suggested legislation allowing elected constables to name special deputies only under certain circumstances. At' present, JPs appoint special constables whenever they wish. This practice, said Van Metre, should be curbed. Sen. Kennedy Bids Symington To Enter WASHINGTON (UPD — Sen. John F. Kennedy attempted today to smoke out Sen. Stuart Symington for a presidential primary contest but reserved a decision on whether to answer Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey’s challenge in West Virginia. Humphrey, already set to collide with Kennedy in the Wisconsin primary, snapped back at the Kennedy camp, meanwhile, for crying “foul” about a strategic coup pulled by Humphrey backers in that state. Kennedy, who has urged all prospective candidates for the Democratic nomination to get into the state races, entered Maryland's May 17 primary Tuesday. He is unlikely to have serious competition in his bid for the 24 Maryland convention votes. Going to Indiana He leaves Thursday on a twoday trip to Indiana and is expect: ed to enter that state's May 3 primary. Kennedy announced that he would decide this week about the May 10 West Virginia primary, which Humphrey has entered, but he pointed out that it falls on the same date as the Nebraska contest, in which he already has filed. Kennedy complained again Tuesday about action of the Wisconsin Democratic Committee in changing the national convention delegate election setup. The committee cut the number of delegate votes to be elected from the state at large from 10 to 5, leaving 25 to be chosen from the 10 congressional districts. Challenges Symington The Massachusetts senator said the change would permit a situation in which a candidate polled a majority of the Democratic primary vote without winning a majority of the delegates. And as he did when he entered Nebraska, adjoining Symington’s home state of Missouri. Kennedy invited Symington Tuesday to meet him in Maryland, which was Symington’s boyhood home. Symington has said repeatedly, however, that he has no plans for entering primaries. Humphrey made it clear today that he does not intend to enter the Maryland primary. Kennedy now is entered in primaries in New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Maryland and Nebraska and has a stand-in, Gov. Michel V. DiSlle. running for him in the Ohio primary. ' He who does good for good’s sake seeks neither praise nor reward, but he is sure of both in the end. A lot of people have ability but relatively few have stability. It is better to work with the con-

State GOP To Back Halleck In 2nd Spot INDIANAPOLIS l UPI»-Gover-nor Handley Indic a tod today that the Indiana Republican State | Committee will adopt a rraolutinn supporting Rep Charle* Halleck for vlcc-preildcot. Handley told a new* contorencc hr was “100 per cent” behind Halleck and »*id the veteran Hoosier <<>ngre»»man would have the active backing of hi* administration In Halleck s bid for the No, 2 on the GOP national ticket. ”1 am hopeful the state committee will support Charlie. )u»t I as It adopted a resolution supporting Vice President Richard Nixon | for president." Handley said i Though Handley said he could not speak for the committee, there was little doubt it would do his bidding Handley conceded that he and Halleck have had their difference* over the years. "Deserves A Shat" “We may not aways have agreed on every issue in the past.” Handley said. “But Charlie has done a wonderful job as a lawmaker and as minority leader in the House. He certainly deserve* a shot at the vice presidency and we re going to give it to him " .. Handley, who was in Washington Tuesday to confer with Nixon. [ said the vice president gave him ; permission to enter Nixon’s name ' in the May 3 presidential preference primary Asked if Nixon gave his backing to Halleck. Handley said: “He told us it was too early for [him to act. But he said he thought highly of Halleck and said he was doing' a fine job.” ' . Handley said any speculation that the Indiana presidential primary would be a popularity contest between Nixon and the Democratic entry was “absurd. “The Democrats will have 15 men running for governor and 30 for president,” he said. They obviously will get out the vote. “We have our men in Nixon and Lt. Gov. Crawford Parker I predict that each win win his convention ” Parker is seeking the GOP gubernatorial nomination. Handley indicated that Hoosier Republicans would not sit back and let the Democrats make a good showing in the primary. Will Actively Campaign “We are going to put on an ac* tive campaign for Nixon,’ he said. I expect to be chairman of the delegation that will carry his banner to the national convention. I personally will be active in his behslf .** “There is no doubt in my mind that Nixon will carry the state in November. We are starting our campaign right now and will take it all the way. We have the man and we know we can win.” Handley said he talked with Halleck and Indiana's two other Republican congressmen, E. Ross Adair and William G. Bray, while in Washington.
