Ten days ago the school commit
tee rejected the request of the Rev
Thomas Lyons that the exercises
be transferred to a non-sectarian
meeting place. They have been
conducted at the Unitarian church
for several years.
Fr. Lyons is administrator of St.
Joseph's church and superior of
the Sacred Heart monastery. He
told parishioners that church laws
ban Catholics from exercises in
churches of other denominations.
Following the baccalaureate ex
ercises, school superintendent Sla
vcl M. Gifford said graduates were
'not required to attend. He added
"no checkup was made to deter
mine how many Catholics had
stayed away."
In announcing the school com
mittee's decision to go ahead with
the ceremony as planned, chair
man Waldo E. Haydon had ex

Alleged Slayer
Surrenders To
Walter Winchell
NEW YORK. June 20-(.T-Ben-
edetto Micri, 37, charged with last
year's knife killing of union or
ganizer William Lurye. gave him
self up Sunday to columnist Wal
ter Winchell.
The two met at a secret rendez
vous arranged by a third party,
unknown to Winchell. Then the
columnist and radio commentator
drove Macri to a police station
where he was booked for homicide.
Less than two hours before, Win
chell had predicted on his radio
program that he would turn Macri
over to police as the climax of a
year s radio campaign to induce
the Lurye killers to surrender.
Another man indicted in the slay
ing, 31-year-old John (Scarf ace)
Giusto, a paroled convict, is still
at large.
At the police station, Winchell
immediately laid claim in the name
of the Damon Runyan cancer fund
to the $25,000 reward posted by
the AFL International Ladies Gar
ment Workers union, Lurye's or
ganization, after the killing May 8
1949.
The surrender was an almost ex
act duplication of Winchell's suc
cess of 1939 in persuading Louis
(Lepke) Buchalter, one of the
heads of the notorious Murder. Inc.
Inc., to give himself up. Buchalter
later was electrocuted at Sing Sing
prison.
Lurye, 40, was fatally stabbed In
a phone booth in the lobby of a
building in Manhattan's garment
center. He had been directing a
campaign to organize non-union
shops, and his death touched off
one of the biggest manhunts in
New York's history. Nearly 100
police and detectives worked on
the case, resulting in the indict
ments against Macri, a shop part
ner, and Giusto.
His union, headed by David Du
binsky, set up a $30,000 fund for
Lurye's widow and children and
posted the $25,000 reward.
A year ago, Winchell began
broadcasting pleas to "B.M." and
"J. G." to give themselves up. At
various times he repeated the plea,
asking them to surrender to him
so the reward -could go to the can
cer fund, of which Winchell is
treasurer.

Vogeler May Be
Freed By Hungary,
Americans Told
VIENNA, Austria, June 20-(P)
Reliable American informants
said today that Robert A. Vogel
er, American business man jailed
in Hungary on spy charges, may
be released this week.
The informants said Hungarian
omciais nave made no detinue
promises, but indications are that
they may turn Vogeler over to U.
S. officials Tuesday or Wednes
day.
Vogeler, 39, an executive and
roving European representative of
tie International Telephone and
Telegraph company, was sentenc
ed by a Hungarian people's court
last February on charges of es
pionage and sabotage. He pleaded I
guilty and was sentenced to IS
years.
Informants here expressed
doubt that Edgar Sanders, Brit
ish associate of Vogeler, who was
sentenced at the same time, will
be released at present.
The British government has I
been negotiating for the reelase of !
Sanders, who was sentenced to 13 j
years.
American officials have denied
that any deal was made to swap
Vogeler for Valentin Gubitchev,
Soviet United Nations employe,
convicted with Judith Coplon fc?
New York of espionage.
Gubitchev was given a sus
pended sentence and sent home.
Observers interpreted the move
then as a bid for similar treatment
for Vogeler.
Both Vogeler and Sanders con
fessed In court that they had turn
ed Hungarian economic secrets
over to American intelligence ser
vices, that they had sabotaged
I. T. and T's Hungarian subsid
iary. Standard Electric, and sab
otaged delivery of equipment from
Hungary to Soviet Russia.
Their confessions followed a pat
tern which had been repeated fre
quently in trials behind the iron
curtain. -
The U. S. state department
branded the trial as "devoid of
justice, inadequate as to evidence.
and replete with falsehoods."
