Long to introduce new defense evidence

WASHINGTON UPI—Assistant Democratic leader Russell B. Long promised to introduce new defense evidence today in Sen. Thomas J. Dodd’s fight against Senatecensure on misconduct charges. A “Dear Lyndon” letter, however, appeared to have shaken Dodd’s defense. The letter, injected into Senate debate Thursday, would seem to contradict Dodd’s assertion that donations to a series of 1963 testimonial gatherings were personal gifts to him rather than campaign contributions. Long, before beginning his address to the Senate today, promised to present evidence the ethics committee “had leads about but never followed up.” There were indications he planned to attack the credibility of several former Dodd aides who stole 4,000 documents from Dodd’s office. Copies of the documents were used as the basis of charges that led to the ethics committee’s investigation of the Connecticut Democrat. The committee, in unanimously recommending censure, said Dodd used at least $116,083 in campaign funds to pay personal bills and collected twice for

travel expenses on seven occasions. Since the beginning of the Senate investigation, Dodd has insisted the thousands of dollars he received from testimonials were not campaign contributions but gifts for use as he saw fit But Sen. Charles H. Percy, RHl., read a letter on the floor of the Senate Thursday which appeared to indicate that in 1963, Dodd considered the testimonials political events. The “Dear Lyndon” letter from Dodd to then Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson said, in part, "first of all allow me to thank you again for your generous offer to come to Connecticut to assist me in my forthcoming campaign. “I wish I could convey to you how very enthusiastic everyone is about your visit and how much it will assist us in getting my campaign underway.”

Ruling favors owner of auto INDIANAPOLIS UPI — The Indiana Appellate Court added a further Interpretation of the state’s so-called “guest statute” in reversing the Morgan Circuit Court in a fatal auto acci-

dent case.

The court ruled In favor of the car owner in a suit in which the trial court awarded $10,000 damages to an Injured

passenger.

The award was made to Margaret Elliott, Pineville, Ky., who was injured when a car driven by Mildred Knuckles McClurg, Indianapolis, overturned near Seymour. Mrs. McClurg’s mother was killed. Evidence was that the passenger riding with Mrs. McClurg had paid gasoline and food bills during the trip and Mrs. Elliott, had sought damages for injuries on the grounds of being a paying passenger, not a guest. But Judge George H. Prime wrote that ‘If the trip is primarily social or for pleasure as distinguished from business. Incidental benefits, even the payment of money, do not exclude the guest relationship ... there must be a clear Intent on the part of the owner of the vehicle to receive something more than mere reimbursement for such expenses incurred.’*

Churches need radical updating SOUTH BEND UPI—An official of the National Council of Churches (NOC) told theologians at the University of Notre Dame Thursday night that “radical updating” of the church is needed if it is to carry out its mission. The Rev. Dr. Colin Williams, associate secretary of the NCC division of Christian life and mission, told 100 Roman Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant theologians that “ecclesiastical blockages” obstruct the mission of the church. Addressing the second National Faith and Order Colloquium on its closing day, the Australian-born Methodist, said the church is beginning to realize its need to evangelize on an ecumenical basis. But, he said, “strong tension” has developed over how this is to be accomplished. Dr. Williams, am exponent of social action by the church, said tension between those favoring personal conversion and others emphasizing the “church at work in the world” is part of the problem. He said that, “even though personal conversion is the driving power of the Christian, It is not enough. It must be related to the total cosmos. Separating evangelism from social action can only lead to disaster.” Answering several delegates who said there was room in the church for both viewpoints, he maintained there is danger of the church “polarizing” into two camps. As a means of closing the gap between the groups, he suggested that representatives of both be brought together to deal with actual strategy on specific issues. “Then we can reflect theologically,” he said. Summarizing trends during the five-day conference, the Rev. William A. Norgren, executive director of the NCC faith and order department, said the church must face the problem of world confessional families as opposed to national church-

es.

The Rev. Mr. Norgren, an Episcopal priest, said some Protestant leaders may have to ask themselves some day whether they want to accept the Pope as the “chief pastor” of the Christian community. He said several are doing so now ‘‘while others may never do so.”

Fish story

VTAREGGIO, Italy UPI — Police Thursday set their nets for a marble trout, proof of a fish story three centuries old. Somebody stole the marble trout, erected in Viareggio to memorialize an 11-pound record fish the Grand Duchess Maria Cristina of Florence hooked in 1603.

The petition was filed by the Stucker Fork Conservancy District, Scottsburg, established in 1957 by a Scott Circuit Court order. Plan for construction of the Quick Creek Reservoir involve use of the water and the conservancy district was picked as the organization most likely to carry the burden. The district to be served would include portions of Scott, Jefferson, Jennings, Jackson and Washington Counties. The proposal calls for spending $3.6 million to build the necessary distribution system, although the financing plan is not a part of the petition. Two towns in the area—Austin and Little York—have signed agreements or adopted resolutions giving authorization to the conservancy district to manage the planned water system. Austin’s water company would sell its facilities to the district Indicated rates begin at $3.90 monthly in Austin and $5.55 outside Austin.

CONTRACT BRIDGE By B. Jay Becker (Top Itocord HpIdf In Masters' Individual Championship Play) BIDDING QUIZ

You are South. Your partner bide One Heart and East bids Two Clubs, both sides vulnerable. What would you bid now with each of the following four hands? L 4KJ75 f4 4KJ92 4K1073 2. +KJ843 47 4J863 J.K95 8. 4AJ96 VQJ72 4AJ985 *— 4. 4J872 9Q95 4KJ974 *6 1. Double. East’s overcall provides the answer to what might otherwise have proved to be a difficult hand to bid. There is ample reason to think it is better to have East play the hand doubled than to try fbr a doubtful game contract On defense, you are likely to take four tricks—two clubs, a diamond and a spade. These, added to partner's values, indicate that East should miss his goal by two or three tricks. Under the circumstances, it is better not to jeopardize the sure profit for a doubtful part score or game contract 2. Pass. You can’t very well Md two spades at this point, since it might force partner to make a rebid that could prove embarrassing (for example, three hearts). With a misfit clearly In sight, it is better to play possum by remaining silent 8. Three clubs. The best thing to do is tell partner right away

of. the club void and thus alert him to the possibility of a slam. The cuebid implies heart support as well as length and strength in the unbid suits. North does not need much of an opening bid for a slam to be possible. Thus, if he had some-

thing like:

4K102 4AK10 83 4K4 +J75 he would probably make 12 tricks. The cuebid tells him that he need not worry about club losers, if that is one of his concerns. At the same time, it puts him on notice that a slam is imminent if his values are other

than clubs.

4. Two hearts. The choice lies between two diamonds and two hearts, and the direct raise is preferred because it quickly and clearly identifies our limited' values. A voluntary heart raise in this position announces a hand worth about 9 points, whether in the form of distribution or high cards. Of course, the raise is not forcing. A two diamond bid might' create an unnecessary problem if partner next bid two hearts or three diamonds. In either case, you would be in & relatively poor position to gauge whether to show your heart support or suppress it The best way of avoiding this type of problem is by bidding two hearts right away.

Wall Street chatter NEW YORK UPI—Bache & Co. feels that further near term consolidation can be expected before the market makes any attempt to break through the Dow Jones 900 zone. Mutual fund cash holdings are sufficient, the company feels, to sustain the usual summer rally but growing concern over economic and international conditions is likely to prevent any concerted upside move. “Thus, an approximate trading range bounded by 840 on the downside and 900-910 on the upside would seem a reasonable expectation over the next several weeks,” Bache says.

city dating back to March of 1966. Police said Danny McDougal, 15, and Stephan Collins, 14, both of Indianapolis, admitted five fires, including a $200,000 blaze March 28, that destroyed the Crown Box Co. in Indianapolis. The two also confessed 44 auto thefts, mostly for joy riding, and 12 house burglaries, mostly on the city’s south and west sides. Police said the two admitted starting the box company fire after they failed to find any money during a burglary. They also said they started fires in four garages after they were unable to steal cars parked inside. Officers said charges of vehicle theft are on file against the pair, but they probably will be turned over tq juvenile authorities.

State Police to use highly accurate radar

INDIANAPOLIS UPI — The Indiana Department of Administration has opened bids on 100 units of a potent little computer which simplifies the police task of determining how fast a speeding driver is moving. The device, known as “Vascar,” has been used on a limited basis by Indiana State Police for several months and was given a public test during the Indianapolis 500-mile race when it was used by state police to time race car drivers. Lt. Dave Levendoski, state police information officer, said

the margin of error in the "500” tests was .229 of a mile. Since Vascar is the invention of one man, only one bid was received. It was $52,500 for the 100 units from Arthur Marshall Co. of Richmond, Va. Award of the contract awaits the return next week from vacation of John Hatchett, Indiana Department of Administration commissioner. Marshall, the investor, assisted state police in preparing a 14-minute film explaining how the device computes time and distance and records speed of travel. The device can be used by a patrol car to determine the speed of another car coming from any direction and also can be used when the police car is stationary. State police have 21 of the units now and eventually hope to have 500.
