On Hendricks

Fail to Notify Prosecutor

State Police Swoop Down

ry Club,

Seven alleged gamblers, arrested in a highly secret state police raid

on the swank Chesterton Social club in Clermont last night, will be | arraigned before a magistrate’s court in Plainfield at 7 p. m. tonight. |

Expressing surprise, Prosecutor Lindol Lawson of Hendricks county, in which the elite gaming establishment is located, sald today he | knew “absolutely nothing” about the raid.

Capt. Robert O'Neal of the state whose officers wielded 20pound sledge hammers and smashed lavish gaming equipment following a sweep into the elaborate quarters, admited Hendricks county authorities were not notified in advance, Equipment Was Returned During a similar raid on the place last May 23, local enforcement officials were informed of state police plans. At that time, equipment was dismantled and taken to the Hendricks county jail, a court order later returning it to the defendants. Sixteen patrons of the exclusive luck palace, all but three from here, were required to give their names and addresses to the raiding squad of a dozen officers. However, none was arrested. Armed with a search warrant, state police arrived quietly about 11:30 p. m. Their entry, however, was detected by a watchman, who ran to warn operators and patrons. Fluorescent Lighting No one answered the door a moment later, but state police forced ft open and entered where they found a fluorescent-lighted room with complete gaming equipment. This included a roulette wheel,

ITALIANS YIELD TO PARTISAN DEMANDS

ROME, Aug. 28 (U. P).—The Italian cabinet decided in a fivehour session today on “agreement In principle” to grant most of the demands of rebellious Asti mountain Partisans. A cabinet spokesman sald, however, that the consensus of the cabi-

net was to condemn the Partisans for their six-day “peaceful wup- »

It agreed to one of the four demands made by the Partisans, inclusion in the auxiliary police force of 15,000 soon to be added to the forces of public order in Italy. Details regarding the other demands will be worked out later, it was said, and the armed forces called out against the Partisans

yesterday presumably will be with- |

drawn today.

Playmate, Hid

BUFFALO, N. Y,, Aug. 28 (U.P), --A Pittsburgh homicide squad arrived here today to investigate the confession of a 13-year-old boy who admitted accidentaly killing a playmate last New Year's eve and hiding the body in an ash pile because he was “scared.” The boy, Charles H. Hazlett, told police the shooting occurred while he and the victim, Michael Gerrich, 12, were playing “holdup man.” Homicide Lt. Peter A. Conners planned to question the boy here briefly and then return him to Pittsburgh sometime today.

Plans Hit Snag

However, his plans hit an unexpected snag when Erie County Judge Hamilton Ward Jr. refused to extradite the boy without formal proceedings. Hazlett, spending a vacation in Buffalo with an aunt, was taken into custody yesterday on the advice of Pennsylvania authorities after young Gerrich’'s decomposed body was discovered in the basement of the former Hazlett home In a statement here, Hazlett sald the shooting occurred after the Gerrich boy suggested that “I shgot him like he was a jallbird or something.” The two boys, who had been | friends and next door neighbors for several years, had discovered a 22-

lett Sr. 35, in a bedroom.

By ROBERT VERMILLION United Press Staff Correspondent ATHENS, Aug. 28.—Soviet Am- | bassador Adm. K. K.

Rodianov will remain in | Greece for the monarchy referen- | dum Sunday. Earlier unofficial re- | ports had said he would leave for Moscow Friday.

Greek government sources sald they did not consider Adm. Rodianov’'s move an outright recall. Adm.

WEISBADEN, Germany, Aug. 28 (U. P.).~High military authorities will decide whether Pvt. Gene Jackson, 26, of Muncie, Ind., was a victim of amnesia or absent without leave. Pvt. Jackson, once declared officially missing, then dead by the army, says he suffered a two-year memot'y “blackout.” | He “woke up” July 8 while walking along a railroad track near | Saarbrucken, Germany. He said the last thing he recalled was being! carried behind the lines in a little town near the Moselle river, That, was in September, 1944, apparently, when he was first listed as “missing.” “If he's cleared administratively he'll be returned to the United States as a patient,” said Lt. James PF. Hyde, physician in charge of the case in Germany. Lt. Hyde said Pvt. Jackson 1s “showing good signs of recovery.” “The strange thing,” he re-| marked, “is that Pvt. Jackson ap-
