Asks Retrial '' PORTLAND - The attorney of Sherry Kong filed a motion Tuesday asking a new trial. 'The attorney, Irvin Goodman, asked that the second degree mur der verdict against Mrs. Fong for the death of Diane Hank, be set aside. A 22-page motion filed with Cir cuit Judge Alfred P. Dobson says Mrs. Kong failed to get a fair -and impartial trial. It says evidence was not sufficient for the verdict. If the motion were granted it would give Mrs. Fung her fourth trial. In the first she was convicted but Judge Dobson set the verdict aside; in the second a mistrial was declared early; and in the third she was convicted on a 10-2 vote of killing 16-year-old Diane Hank, her occasional baby sitter and friend.

Trainmen Vote to Strike On January 19 POCATELLO, Idaho iff A strike of intermountain railway conductors and brakemen against the Union Pacific Railroad has been scheduled for Jan. 19. H. W. Corbctt, general chair man of the Brotherhood of Rail way Conductors here, announced the strike date Tuesday night, on ly hours after union officials said their membership had voted over whelming approval of the walkout in a mail ballot. He said the men voted to strike "Because of the fact that the car rier's representatives have de clined to recognize payments due under scheduled agreements and because of the vicious discipline under the jurisdiction of the su perintendent at Pocatello." A spokesman for Union Pacific said the railroad would have no comment until it received official notification of the strike action. It was expected the railroad would then ask for mediation. Corbctt said between 400 and 500 conductors and brakemen would leave their jobs. He said the strike would affect Union Pacific's central and North western districts, which includes lines running west from Green River, Wyo., to Seattle, Yakima and Spokane, Wash.; Portland. Ore., and Lewiston and Moscow, Idaho.
