cuscd of murdering pretty Patricia Birmingham, 18, to silence her about the pregnancy of her sister, Kathleen. Kathleen, 18, who married Babich only two days before Patricia's body was found in the Milwaukee River, was witn her youthful husband in the courtroom. She is expecting he.' baby in August. Selection of a jury was expected to take several days because the case received widespread publicity and many persons had formed opinons for or against Babich. A venire of 74 prospective jurors was called but defense attorneys said even that might not 'be enough. Babich’s lawyers, Arthur Richter and Edward Berkanovich, offered to have the young man plead guilty to a fourth degree manslaughter charge but district attorney William McCauley insisted he was guilty of premeditated murder. The lessor conviction would carry a one to two year prison sentence. A conviction of premeditated murder makes life imprisonment mandatory. Wisconsin has n<^ death penalty.

AIR CRASH SURVIVORS HUDDLE IN COAST GUARD BOAT

IN MEMORY OWEN In loving memory of my husband and our father, Glen Owen, who passed away June 8th, 1944. Five sad and lonely years have passed, Since our great sorrow fell, The shock that we received that

day

We still remomber well. Friends may think that we’ve forgotten, When at times they see us smile, But little they know the heartache That our snile hides all the while. Some may forget him since he is gone, But we will always remember no matter how long. Mrs. Glen Owen, Mr. and Mrs. Meredith Myers. p( j.
