Two Nabbed In Navy Pistol Heist Episode

INDIANAPOLIS UPI — Two men were arrested Sunday and charged in the theft of 50 automatic pistols from a U.S. Navy shipment to Viet Nam. The guns were recovered. Held on preliminary charges of violating the offenses against property act were George C. Barr, 42, a forklift operator for an air freight service at Weir Cook Municipal Airport, and Henry L. Muncy, Jr., 23, both of Indianapolis. The .45 caliber Remingtons were taken from a shipment at the airport awaiting transportation to San Diego, Calif., Wives Overjoyed By Safe Landing SEABROOK, Tex. UPI — Mrs. Thomas Stafford almost jumped up and down Monday when Gemini 9 safely splashed down in the Atlantic. Cheering from the Eugene Cernan home could be heard outside in the street. “I was screaming so, I really didn’t know what I said when the capsule hit the water,” she told reporters later. “It’s splashdown was the loveliest part of the day ... Oh, it was indescribable.” Mrs. Stafford said the last time she saw her husband was two weeks ago and he was “very calm,” probably because of his experience with Gemini 6. She expected to see him again this weekend. The Stafford children — Dionne, 11, and Karin, 8—played with batman and baseball cards while their father was coming down in the ocean. Mrs. Stafford said space flights are "old hat” to her children. But Karin admitted today’s splashdown was “pretty exciting.” The Cernans and Staffords, with visiting wives of other astronauts, were grouped close to TV sets for the splashdown.

on the second leg of a trip to Viet Nam. The shipment originated at the U.S. Naval Ammunition Depot at Crane. Recovery of the guns and arrest of the men came about because Jesse E. Kirk, Jr., 47, saw a car pull intq the driveway of a vacant house near his home and suspected it was a group of teenagers planning a Saturday night party. Kirk called police. When officers arrived, they found a car later identified as Barr’s with six stolen guns under the front seat. A crate containing 43 more weapons was found in the car trunk. Several hours later, on the basis of information found on papers in the car, police arrested Barr and Muncy at another address. Later, in a search of the vacant house, sheriff’s deputies and FBI agents found a crate containing a .50-caliber ma-chine-gun mount.

Pope's 'Inner Cabinet' Meets VATICAN CITY UPI—Pope Paul’s “inner cabinet” on birth control met to begin drafting recommendations for possible changes in the church’s ban on use of oral pills and other contraceptive devices. The group hopes to have its recommendations ready by the end of June. The meeting, the first since the pope appointed a 16-prelate group to head up his larger commission on birth control March 7, was expected to last three or four days. The commission, headed by Alfredo Cardinal Ottaviani, a 75-year-old conservative churchman, is studying the Roman Catholic Church’s ban on all artificial forms of birth control.

Protest Alleged Police Slaying 01 Student

Students Riot In Panama City

PANAMA CITY, R. P. UPI— Hundreds of students rioted in downtown Panama and nearby Colon Monday protesting alleged police slaying of a classmate just back from Moscow. First reports said at least three persons were killed and scores wounded. Students set the post office on fire and kept firemen away while it burned. They also attacked and sacked the National Lottery Building and rushed the mayor’s office, forcing its hasty evacuation. Jackie, Children Relax In Hawaii HONOLULU UPI—Mrs. John F. Kennedy, widow of the President, has settled into a rented beachfront home for a month-long “real rest in Hawaii—almost out of the 20th century for a little while.” Mrs. Kennedy arrived here Sunday with her daughter, Caroline, 9, and son John Jr., 5. Also accompanying her were her former brother-in-law, actor Peter Lawford, Lawford’s two children, a Secret Service agent and a nurse. “I want to enjoy the sun, to spend a lot of time with the children, to read—and just generally to relax,” Mrs. Kennedy told Honolulu Advertiser Managing Editor Buck Buckwach who was aboard the plane during the H-hour 27-minute flight from New York. “I’ve been assured Hawaii is the perfest place for that, and I’m hoping it will be.” Crack Passenger Train Derailed CARROLL, Iowa UPI — The Union Pacific’s City of Los Angeles train derailed Monday, shaking up more than 100 passengers and injuring 23. The injured were taken to St. Anthony’s Hospital where a spokesman said none was seriously hurt. One of the five diesel units, pulling the 19-car train tipped on its side when it left the rails, but all other locomotives and cars remained upright, railroad officials said. The train, carrying 139 passengers, was speeding eastward toward its Chicago terminal, about 80 miles east of Omaha, Neb., when it jumped the tracks. The Union Pacific uses Milwaukee Road tracks from Omaha to Chicago.

An estimated 1,000 students fought police in the city’s main streets, turned over and burned cars and threw stones and garbage. National Guardsmen charged the students repeatedly in an effort to drive them off the streets and a heavy pair of tear gas lay over the center of the city. Guard reinforcements, meanwhile, were rushed to Colon, 15 miles across the isthmus from Panama, to quell similar savage outbreaks.

In Colon, high school students attacked the local intelligence headquarters (DENI), throwing stones and loudly accusing police of murdering Juan Navas Pajaro, 20, whose body was found by the roadside outside of Colon last Wednesday, two days after he had returned from a nine-month visit to Moscow. Student leaders said the DENI killed him because of his leftist political leanings. One student was reported shot to death in Colon and several others wounded.

Astronauts To Report In Detail

CAPE KENNEDY UPI— Amid the triumphs and disappointments of the three-day Gemini 9 mission, astronaut Thomas Stafford and Eugene Cernan “learned a lot.” Today they tell space officials about it in detail. The “learned a lot” evaluation came from command pilot Stafford after he and Cernan scored a bullseye splashdown in the Atlantic that was witnessed by millions of television viewers.

Woman Kidnaped She Tells Police WABASH, UPI — A woman told police she was kidnaped Monday at South Bend and forced to drive at knife-point to Wabash. Janet Logan, 22, South Bend, told authorities here she attended a Sunday night party in Michigan with Nick St. John, and when they returned to her apartment, he pulled a knife and forced her to drive him here. A Wabash police car pulled alongside the Logan car in the city park. The woman told the officers “she wanted to make a phone call,” but did not at that time say she had been kid- ;

naped.

She accompanied officers to the police station where she | told of the kidnaping. St. John was gone when police went back to the car in the park, but officers found a kni' with a long blade on the grow near the car. Police said St. John was an escapee from the Norman Beatty State Hospital at WestviUe.

The two astronauts are scheduled to spend a week reliving Gemini 9’s partially-curtailed rendezvous and spacewalk program for Gemini planners. Stafford and Cernan flew back to their launch site late Monday after spending less than six hours aboard their recovery vessel, the aircraft carrier Wasp. Both agreed the Gemini 9 mission “helped advance space science quite a

bit.”

“It was a great flight and a great experience,” said Staf- | ford, who is more experienced ! in the tricky art of space rendezvous than any other man in the world. “We learned a lot,” he said. Cernan, the man who logged a record two hours in spacewalking time during the actionpacked mission, agreed with Stafford. “I truly feel we were able to learn a great deal.” The two pilots are scheduled to spend three days in their ! quarters at the Merritt Island Moonport in “debriefing” sessions with project engineers before a reunion with their families. A report to the nation is set for June 17.
