Police and sheriff's telephone switchboards were deluged with calls in cities and communities as far as 250 miles away. The huge luminous teardrop shaped glow was caused by an Atlas rocket carrying an Agena space vehicle, but in keeping with its policy of secrecy, the A i r Force refused to say even if the launch was a success. However, a spokesman said there had been no change in its policy of informing news media it a satellite launch vehicle is de stroyed, indicating Thurs day night's launch had not been blown up because of a malfunc tion. A few hours earlier, the Air Force announced it had launched satellite employing a Thor- Agcna booster combination from adjacent Vandcnberg Air Force Base.

Schwensen. convicted in the air embolism death of Portland housewife. Schwcnsen's attorney, Charles V. Elliott, said Thursday the fit ing could result in the slate's first recorded reversal of a first de gree murder conviction Schwensen, a 28-year-old former Portland college student, was con victed in the death of Mrs. Jean Bussey. 29. an cast Portland housewife whose body was found in her parked car last September a week after she disappeared. Elliott said there was a major flaw in the prosecution. He said his brief for reversal will be based on the stale s charge that Schwensen caused the death of the woman through forcible rape which resulted in an air bubble that reached the heart through the bloodstream. Evidence presented at Schwcn sen's 10-day trial last year did not support that allegation, Elliott i said. The attorney said he had been assured by four authorities in the field of forensic pathology that it i would be impossible to detect air embolism in the blood of a body i that had heen dead for eight days. Two Pathologist Testified ! Two ot the experts testified at the trial. They were Dr. Charles P. Larson, head of the Tacnma General Hospital and Dr, Warren (',. Hunter, of the University of Oregon Medical School. Elliott has also received corres pondence supporting the conten tion from Dr. Alan It.

"The record shows police ef fectiveness remains high despite mounting crime work loads and heavier demands for a wide vari ety of increasing complex police services, the rBl chief de clared. But he added that "law en forcement machinery is impaired and policing is hampered as a result of increasing restrictions being placed on enforcement op erations. . "The effectiveness of (police work). . .depends to some extent on the action ot the courts and the success of the. correctional process," he said, "but most of all the degree to which the local citizenry supports law enforce ment. "Positive action to reduce crime," he said, "must begin with the individual citizen." Statistics in Hoover's report showed forcible rape was up 2 per cent nationally during 1WI2; robbery up 4 per cent, aggra vated assault and burglary up 5 per cent, grand larceny up 8 per cent and aulo theft up 9 per cent. During 11)59, 1!K) and 1961, crime in this country increased 13 per cent, the report showed. Burglary, auto theft and grand larceny led the increases with 13, 14 and 10 per cent respec tively. The report said increases rang ing from 5 to 11 per cent were reported in the crime rates in metropolitan areas while rural counties generally reported a de crease.

Jones Thursday. Her attorneys, Philip A. Levin and Carl R. Neil, both of Port land, said they would appeal Jones' decision to the Oregon Su preme Court. Levin said that if the Oregon court held against them they will raise constitutional issues before cither the U.S. District Court or the U.S. Supreme Court. Miss Freeman, 22, Culver, was convicted in Madras in 1901 of hurling Larry Jackson, 6, to his death in Crooked River Gorge. She was sentenced to die at the State Penitentiary here on Aug. 1, but-Judge Jones granted a stay of execution July 10 to allow a hear ing under the post-conviction act. Another execution date probably will not be set until the end of what could be a lengthy series of appeals. Judge Jones, after more than an hour of legal arguments, dis missed the petition on the grounds that it failed to raise any issues appreciably different from thoso which could have been raised on Miss Freeman's original appeal from the death sentence. Levin and Neal said they would file an amended petition within until next week to clean up the mess caused as the storm knocked down power lines, uprooted trees, broke storm win dows and damaged at least three haiifars.
