Arrest Suspect In Waitress' Death CARBONDALE, 111. (UPD—The FBI today arrested a convicted murderer in the lovers’ lane kidnaping of Mary Lily Ellen Roberts, 17-year-old blonde waitress who was found slain and dumped in an abandoned well. Joseph Harry Milani, 33, erf Herrin, 111., was arraigned before U.S. Commissioner Everett Lewis at Benton, 111., on charges of assault with intent to kill on a federal reservation. Lewis set blond at $50,000 and turned Milani over to custody of the U.S. marshal. He scheduled preliminary hearing for Sept. 13. Milani, twice questioned and released in the kidnap-slaying, was identified by John Bryant, 20, as the “tall husky gunman” who shot Bryant in the face and snatched Miss Roberts from their car Aug. 25 at a Crab Orchard national wildlife refuge lovers lane in southern Illinois. The 6-foot, 200-pound ex-convict was first questioned several hours after the kidnaping when he was unable to account for his activities during the early morning hours Aug. 25. He later was questioned and again released Sunday when searchers found Miss Roberts' body in a 30-foot well, cli» maxing an 87-hour search. In Washington, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover said federal agents entered the case because the wildlife refuge, scene of the kidnaping, is a federal reservation.

Farm Pond Building Secrets Explained A farm pond can be a source of irrigation;- fire protection, and livestock water and can provide fishing and boating, suggests Donald R. Sisson, Purdue University agricultural engineer, in “Farm Ponds’’, a new circular published by the agricultural extension service. Sisson says mat a good pond needs a watershed of sufficient size, with at least 50 per cent of the area in woods or permanent grass. Subsoil under the pond must be watertight, and water depth should be at least eight feet in 25 per cent of the pond area, or six feet deep in at least half the pond. The pond should be fenced to keep out likestock. A pond can be excavated in a level area, but a more economical arrangement is a dam across a

Corn Support At $1.07 Here The price of 1960-crop corn in Adams county will be supported at a minimum of $1.07 per bushel, Mary J. Howard, Office Manager of the Adams County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation office announced today. The local rate is based on a minimum national average support rate of $1.06 which has been determined under the requirements contained in the agricultural act of 1958. This minimum is determined well in advance of harvest on the basis of preliminary information, so that the price support program can get under way promptly at harvest-time. The minimum rate may be increased if the final 1960crop corn support price as determined in October is higher. It will not be reduced. As in the past, Mrs. Howard said, the price support program for corn will be carried out through loans on farm or ware-house-stored corn and through purchase agreements. These will be available from harvest - time through May 31, 1961 and will ma- ' ture July 31. 1961. To be eligible for supports, corn I must grade No. 3 or better except ; that com grading No. 4 because ‘Hof test weight only will also be 'eligible. Corn must meet certain moisture requirements and must also be in adequate storage. Detailed information is available at the county ASC office.
