Jaggers Clams. Up As Mattes Case Hits Snag

Sheriff Smith today found him-| self a long way from what he! thought was the solution to the! Mike Mattes cornfield slaying of} June 23. Efforts of question Elmo Jaggers, 25, once accused as the triggerman, bogged down yesterday when Jaggers refused to talk. The deputies went to Federal Prison Hospital at Springfield, Mo., where Jaggers going plastic surgery on his eyes. | Lt. Willlam Owen, who made! the trip with Lt. Fred V.

He Was Nervous

“We showed him a picture of] Mattes dead in the cornfield. He showed quite a bit of emotion— very nervous—and looked up at us and said, ‘The man who did this ought to burn for it."! We said we agreed and we hoped he did. “Jaggers seemed quite cocky, but he didn't say a word.” Meanwhile, investigation stalled ere today.

Berlin Traffic

Bar MP Cars From Highway

By United Press BERLIN, May 10—Armed Russian guards today barred American and Allied military police patrols from the international highway which connects isolated West Berlin with Western Germany. American, British and French commandants in Berlin protested the action to Gen. Vassily I. Chuikov, Soviet commander in Germany, and demanded that the blockade measure be lifted. The western commandants, in a joint announcement, said the Soviet move might have been caused by a “misunderstanding.” A spokesman described the incident as ‘serious but not momentous.”
