WESTERN THRIFT SLAYER ON TRIAL Blsbee, Ariz., Dec. 9 U.B Drawing of names of prospective Jurors to try red-haired Margaret Herlihy on charges of slaying her secretly-wed husband, Capt. Da vid Carr, began late today after a squabble between two Judges that threatened to delay the trial. Superior Judge William C Hall of Tucson, assigned to the case by Gov. Sidney P. Osborn, ordered the drawing of names to proceed despite objections from Judge John Wilson Rosa of Tucson. Miss Herlihy. the 21-year-old daughter of Lt. Col.
