GRAND JURY CALLED WINCHESTER, Ind., March 31 — (UP) - A Randolph county grand jury was scheduled today to hear from neighborhood observers the background of a year-long backyard feud which culminated last Wednesday in the fatal shooting of Mrs. Maltha Laisure, 39. Among the witnesses who probably will testify behind the closed doors of (he grand jury's special investiga- ! tion were Wesley Laisure, husband of the victim, and Goly Weese, hus- • band of Mrs. Lucy Weese, who allegedly did the shooting. Prosecutor Meeks Cockerill indicated the grand jury of five farmers and one housewife probably would continue their investigation through tomorrow at least. Frank White, believed to be the only eye-witness to the shooting, was ! reported to have testified yesterday. ! Shortly after the shooting. White I told police how Mrs, Laisur* “threw

dispatches said today.
Reports from the eastern allied defense flank credited the out-num-bered Chinese defenders of strategic Toungoo with scoring an important
tactical success.
By inflicting tremendous losses on superior Japanese attackers, the! stubborn Chinese were said to have given the main units of China’s fifth and sixth armies valuable time to strengthen defensive positions farther north along the road to Mandalay where some quarters predict the major battle of Burma would be fought. Last reports said the beleaguered Chinese in Toungoo City were hard pressed to keep the enemy out of the -astern outskirts, but Mandalay dispatches described developments in the immediate area as “encourag-
ing.”
Chungking communiques said the Japanese had paid a huge price for their every advance against the Chinese who battled with bayonets in Toungoo’s streets. The New Delhi radio, quoting •American military reports,” said an investigation of Toungoo’s battlefield showed 30 per cent of the casualties had been inflict'd with bayonets. This battle, it said, was one of the .iercest of the Pacific war.
