Bank Robber's Penalty Reduced INDIANAPOLIS UPI —John B. Carr, S3, Plainfield, who pleaded guilty to two bank holdups that allegedly netted him $50,000, Friday, had his 20year prison term reduced to 8 years. Federal Judge William E. Steckler, who sentenced the former athlete, reduced the prison term following a study of the case by the Bureau of Prisons. Carr pleaded guilty to the Dec. 23, 1965 holdup of the
Chapel Hill branch of the People’s Bank & Trust Co., in which $5,247 was taken. He also pleaded guilty to the $44,788 holdup last Dec. 2 of a suburban branch of the American Fletcher National Bank & Trust Co. Under his eight-year sentence, Carr becomes eligible for freedom any time parole officers approve.
TV in review
Bury Hatchet BOSTON UPI — The Yale Club of Boston held its centennial dinner Thursday night —at the Harvard Club.
By RICK DU BROW HOLLYWOOD UPI — Even in the brave new world of pop, op, happenings and Marshall McLuhan, the horse opera holds its major place in network television programming—as secure- | ly as it did in movies half a century ago. Depending on how one defines a Western—and it’s not so easy nowadays with all the psychological and tongue-in-cheek re-
finements — there are still roughly 14 horn's of horse operas per week scheduled for the three television networks in the coming season. In addition to such returning Western series as “Gunsmoke,” j “Bonanza,” “The Virginian,” j “The Big Valley,” “Daniel ! Boone” and Tron Horse,” there , are more than a half dozen new regularly scheduled shoot-’em- ' ups.

For example, over at CBS-TV there is ‘Dundee and the Culhant,” which will star John Mills as a cunning lawyer whose young attorney sidekick is quick with a gun. And the same network will offer “Cimmaron Strip," a 90-minute entry featuring Stuart Whitman as a marshal. Over at NBC-TV, meanwhile, the same producer who has guided “Bonanza” to its spectacular ratings success over the years, David Bortort, has come up with another oater, "The High Chaparral.” And the network has scheduled this new series right after “Bonanza" on Sunday nights, which will mean two straight hours of Westerns. ABC-TV has a fistful of new Western series, mainly because its large number of failures annually among regular weekly programs provides the space— and the drive for surefire stuff in the ratings. We will have, for example, from ABC-TV, “The Legend of Custer,” based on the general who had the unfortunate last stand at the hands of the Indians. We will also have a series called “Hondo,” based, at least in title, on the old John Wayne horse opera, but without John Wayne, which makes a difference. Furthermore, we will get from ABC-TV “The Guns of Will Sonnett,” in which good old Walter Brennan will mount up again and spend the season searching “for the truth in the legend of his lawless son.” It is conceivable that the fiction of a single pure hero on horseback has, in some ways, more romantic appeal than ever in this increasingly mechanized age, at least to persons middleaged and over who feel the squeeze of mechanization more severely than less inhibited youngsters. To the younger generation, it is more than conceivable that the old romantic hero on a horse is very near to pure camp. Too bad. Gary Cooper really was better company than Peter O’Toole.

Foreign News Commentary . (By LEON DANIEL) <, TOKYO UPI — Knowledgeable American sources are wandering what price the Communists will try to extract from Ryokichi Minobe for their part in his election as the first leftist governor Tokyo. . Another key question la whether Minobe will pay that price. Minobe sought Communist support He said there were no strings attached to his acceptance of that support But that was window dressing. A politician who claims to be anything leas than his own man would be rare indeed. Those same knowledgeable American sources take some comfort in the fact that Minobe is trying to portray an image of himself as a man who won’t be bossed by the Communists-or anybody else. That is little enough to take comfort in and an honest appraisal would indicate that Washington must view Minobe’s victory with apprehension. The Communist vote was more than the difference between Minobe’s total and the votes received by Dr. Masatoshi Matsushita, the conservative candidate he defeated. The Communists were useful to Minobe and he benefited from their excellent electioneering machinery. But he also incurred a political debt that could change the face of Japanese politics. Minobe’s opponents charged that if he were elected a Red flag would fly from Tokyo’s city hall. Not so, said Minobe, meeting the charge head on. American sources believe the Red flag business never caught on because “the Japanese people are too sophisticated for that.” Minobe will have no real power as governor because the Communists and Socialists don’t have a majority in the metropolitan assembly. He will be, in effect, something like what Americans call a “lame duck.” But this doesn’t tell the whole story. What Minobe will have is a platform from which he can take verbal potshots at the national administration of Prime Minister Eisaku Sato, a man who already appears somewhat shaken by Minobe’s victory.

Wall Street Chatter
NEW YORK UPI —William R. White of Homblower & Weeks, Hemphill, Noyes believes many investors who had expected lower first quarter earnings to depress the market were caught off guard by the recent heavy demand for blue chips and a general revival of confidence. The analysts therefore feels, that many traders who were waiting for declines for bargain prices before reinvesting cash reserves probably have decided to accelerate purchases. He feels recent strength of auto industries is significant inasmuch as It encouraged belief that the economic slump of the last 6 to 9 months may be less service and shorter lived than had been expected.
