Baby Rapist
Faces Death
Fresno, Calif., Dec. 22 ()
Paul Montes Gutierrez, 25-year-old
cotton picker, was convicted
yesterday of first degree mur
der in the rape slaying of 17-
months-old Josephine Yanez.
The verdict of Superior Judge
Arthur C. Shepard, who heard
the case without a Jury, was
without recommendation, mak
ing death penalty automatic.
Judge Shepard also ruled that
Gutierrez was sane.
Peace officers called the No
vember 20 murder "the most
vicious murder ever committed
in Fresno county."
Gutierrez admitted taking the
child from her parents' car, but
said he remembered nothing
after falling with her.
Josephine, daughter of ranch
worker Joe Yanez, 29, and his
wife, Teya, 22, disappeared in
brief Interval when neither
parent was in the car.
Small Cabin Burns;
15-Monlhs Baby Dies
Wapato, Wash., Dec. 22 ff)
A 15-month-old child burned to
death and three others, the old
est about 5, were carried to
safety by neighbors last night
when fire broke out in a two-
room west side cabin.
The rescuers had to batter
down a door to the cabin to gain
entrance.
The dead infant was Jimmy
Ventura, son of Mrs. Elsie Ven
tura. His brother Donald, 2 'A
and Johnny Dandara, 1, son of
Mrs. Lucy Dandara, were ill
from breathing smoke. A fourth
child, about 5 but unidentified
by name, was not injured.
The children were alone in
the cabin when the fire broke
out. Cause of the blaze was un
known. Tony Lavelli's 40 points
against Princeton on Feb. 5,
1949, stands as an Ivy league
basketball scoring record.

publican newspaper. "I'm

of it," he declared.
