Jackson, who was slain by Richard Peter son, teenager, who went on! shooting spree after being denied use oi tne lamuy car. Here lis his account of the shooting.) By RON TAYLOR As Told To United Press PASCO, Wash. (UP) thought it was just another dry run when the police radio said a kid. was shooting up the town. I was never more wrong. j . I found that out soon enough when I got over on the east side of town. Young Peterson's father was stretched out at an intersec tion with three bullets in hi!m. And his son, a 16-year-old high school student, was still loose. I I trailed Jack (Alva Jackson, Pasco policeman) and he spotted the kid after about 10 or 15 min utes and pulled up into an alley and got out I followed him Jackson saw the kid and start ed to run. I was about 15 feet behind and just as I rounded the corner of one of the cabins in the alley, I saw Peterson. Waving Gun He had a gun and was waving it around. I turned chicken and got out of the way but Jackson kept right on moving in. I think he was trying to get to the kid without having to shoot him. Then I heard six shots. They (3 ccVlTl ing first Salem Downtown Merchants went off one right after the other so fast you could! barely count them. I waited a second or two and then I saw Jackson had this 200-pound kid from behind and was trying to handle him. But he still didn't have control of Peter son's gun arm. The! kid was bend ing Jackson's armjaround trying to point the gun at him couldn't quite make it. Dropped Knife Deputy Sheriff jWalt Brinkie came up to help! and Jackson stepped away. AS he did he dropped a knife jhe apparently had taken from the kid. He asked me to pick it up and when I leaned over to get the knife I knew Jackson hadj been hit. Blood dripped from his mouth and a dazed look jcame over his face when I told him he had been j hit. His;knees sagged and I got an arm around him and helped take him to a car; Then I went back and helped Peterson. Between Brinkie with us, we forced him another car and they took him to the police station It was: a tough one. Jackson has two children.

The East German Communist, undoubltedly by order of the So viet authorities, announced the im position of enormously increased highway tolls on supply trucks which move between Berlin and Western Germany through Soviet occupied territory. The Reds said the toll increases were needed to pay for highway improvements. Allied and German authorities beared, however, the action might be the first move toward a new blockade. 2. The threat of civil war in South Viet Nam in Indochina "be came increasingly serious. Twenty- six persons were killed in the sub urbs of Saigon in a fight between government troops and those of dis sident political-rebel sects which maintain private armies.
