Hammond Residents ”- . I■■ , ■ Haul Own Garbage HAMMOND, Ind. (UPD— Hammond residents are getting rid of their accumulated garbage but it’s a slow . precess. A Strike of almost 200 sanitation, park and street employes which began earlier this week halted regular garbage collections in the city and residents have been taking their own trash to the city dump. But there are some formalities for the do-it-yourself garbage haulers and then there’s the matter of passing a Teamster Union picket line at the dump. Street Commissioner William Becker Jr. requires each person to sign a register before entering the dump and he admitted Thursday that it slows the process “a bit.” Pickets at the dump madd no attempt to prevent the motorists from entering but gave them handbills outlining their side of the wage dispute with the city. Mayor Edward C. Dowling has offered the workers a raise ot nine cents an hour but the employes are holding out for 15 cents. Dowling met Wednesday night with Michael Sawochka, president of Teamsters Local 142, but both termed the meeting “uneventful." In contrast to the situation which prevailed during a similar strike in 1958, there appeared to be no “collective dumping” groups of neighbors forming pools to haul garbage to the dump. “Most of the people just come in their own car with their own garbage,” one observer said. “There were bushel baskets and cans sticking out of the windows and trunks and just about anyplace you can imagine.” Pickets who began operating at the city sewage treatment plant Tuesday relaxed their lines somewhat Thursday to allow 12 engineers to enter the plant to “maintain efficient and minimum performance of facilities.” JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES KINGDOM HALL Corner Monroe and Ninth Sunday 3:00 p.m.: “What Is Happening to Morals?” will be the name of a public Bible lecture to be given by R.

Ward Pictures Sei! Protector Os Christine LONDON (UPD—Dr. Stephen Ward testified today at his vice trial that while play girl Christine Keeler was living in his apartment he was so upset by her immoral behavior that he told her mother on her. Christine’s mother then told him, he said, that the- only time she felt happy about her daughter was when Christine was in his flat. Under cross-examination by the prosecutor, Ward sought to picture himself as the protector of Christine whose affair with War Minister John Profumo touched off

Britain’s sex scandal. He grew angry and pounded the edge of the witness box when prosecutor Mervyn Griffith-Jones sought to label him as a middleaged playboy who lived off the earnings of the girls he brought to his apartment “Your sexual desires are absolutely insatiable,” Griffith - Jones said. “I do not think I have any more sexual desires than anyone else,” Ward replied. “It is perhaps the variety which is more." Before he left the witness stand this afternoon, after two days of testimony. Ward said he had introduced Ghristine, 21, and Marilyn Rice-Davies, 18, to former film star Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., and to Lord, Astor. But he denied he was procuring play girls for his friends, although the two girls both have testified that they entertained men in his apartment. The prosecutor then asked it it had not occurred to Ward to warn
Christine’s parents of her behavior, and the ostepath said he had done so in a telephone call to her mother. The mother’s reply, he said, was that she felt better about her daughter while she was in Ward’s apartment. Before Ward testified today, his lawyer had-promised “more surprises” in the case in which the American-trained osteopath has admitted hp was “immoral” and “oversexed” but denied he was a criminal. Defense Attorney James Burge’s surprises were expected to concern other defense witnesses. London newspapers speculated today they could include: —Royal artist Vasco Lazzolo, a friend of Prince Philip, husband of the queen. Prosecution witness Vicky Barrett, a streetwalker, testified earlier that she went to Ward’s apartment for sexual relations with a man named “Vasco.” She said he paid but Ward got all the money. i —Sylvia Parker, a model ear-
thsr~"Teported missing. Ward’s lawyers issued a plea for her to show up and the Daily Sketch said today she planned to appear. Ward, who introduced callgirl Christine Keeler to War Minister John Profumo and Soviet Naval Attache Eugene Ivanov, beginning the twin affairs that caused the war minister’s resignation and nearly brought down Prime Minister Harold Macmillan’s government, led off the defense witnesses Thursday. He claimed he went to the British Security Service two years ago with the news that Miss Keeler was sharing her affections with Profumo and Ivanov, Ward, who agreed with Burge’s description of him as a “thoroughly immoral man,” denied that he lived wholly or in part from Miss Keeler’s earnings as a prostitute. He said he was “horrified to learn” that she was taking money for her favors but nevertheless did not consider her a prostitute.

“It depends on what you mean by a prostitute,” he told the Court. “If you simply mean a woman who sells her body—that would apply to any woman who married for money. I myself thoroughly disapprove of any woman who takes money for sex alone.” Traffic Violation Charged To Driver Robert K. Plummer, 25, of route 1, Geneva, was charged Wednesday by Portland police with failure to yield the right of way after an accident in Portland. Plummer allegedly made a uturn and came back onto the highway into the path of a car driven by Marion R. Hall, 36, of Artland. The front ends of both automobiles were damaged.
