WILLIS REPORTS AIM TO MAKE RACE

_ Senator Raymond E. Willis said ‘today’ the entry of former Republican state chairman William E. Jenner into the senatorial race would not’ affect his plans to carry the fight to the state convention. Mr. Jenner's recently announced candidacy for G. O: 'P. senatorial nomination is widely reported to have the support of the state Republican organization. Senator Willis is assumed to be headed for discard in favor of the more youthful Mr. Jenner, “I am confident,” the senator said in his statement today, “that the tradition of both major parties to renominate senators who have consistently supported the party program and lived up to their original pledges will be upheld at the conventiqn. “No one has presented a valid argument for failure of the party to follow this precedent. “The state is nicely balanced geographically in its present senatorial representation. It would be most unwise to throw away the advantage of six years seniority and experience in these trying times.” Senator Willis pointed out that in. recent talks with party leaders over the state he had.encountered only the “warmest welcome” for his candidacy for the “usual second term.” He expressed confidence the June 13 convention would be “fair and unfixed.” “That is all I ask,” he concluded. “Anything less could be fatal to our party's success in this important year.”

BLUE WON'T PROBE SHAKEDOWN RUMORS

Prosecutor Sherwood Blue today said his office would not probe rumors of an alleged “shakedown” of Marion céunty tavern owners

official or unofficial.” “You could spend your entire life investigating wild rumors and still come up with a great big zero,” said the prosecutor. He described the shakedown reports as “just some more clouds hovering over the nether regions. . + « We observe them with interest, but we don’t act unless they give indications of blowing up a hurricane or tornado.” Meanwhile, the state alcoholic beverages commission continued its probe of rumors some tavern proprietors have been forced to pay off from $250 to $2500 in ‘order to remain in business. :

COURT RULES ON = DUTY OF FATHER

The Indiana appellate court ruled: today: that a father may be required to ‘support his children whether or not they live in this state, In the first case of its kind ever to be presented to a higher state court, a Gary gambler asked custody of two children living with his former wife in Arkansas. His contention was that a Lake county civil court was without authority to order him to pay $85 monthly for

the children’s support, while they lived out of the state. ’ The wife at the time of the diyorce was given custody.of the children. The court ordered the father {to pay $30 monthly support money. When the wife learned that her former husband’s gambling income had risen from about $150" to $1500 a month, she ‘asked for more support money. ‘It was then that he asked custody of the children. This was denied by the Lake county court. ; The husband appealed to the Indiana appellate court which affirmed" the lower court's decision, {Judge Wilbur Royse of the ap[pellate court wrote the decision.
