Wrigley Field, Chicago, Oct.
8 (U.PJ The Chicago Cubs,
taking advantage of an error by
Hank Greenberg, evened the
world series at three games
apiece when they defeated the
Detroit Tigers, 8 to 7 in 12 in
nings. The tally which sent the rich
est series of all time into a sev
enth same to be played here
Wednesday was scored by
little Billy Schuster, a pinch
runner when Greenberg let
Stan Hack's single go through
him. Earlier, Greenberg was
the Detroit hero because he hit
a home run which sent the game
into extra innings.
Secory Scoots Home
Schuster, running for pinch
hitter Frank Secory, who had
singled, already had stopped at
second But ' when Big Hank
failed to come up with the ball,
Little Billy tore for home as a
dejected Dizzy Trout stomped
off the pitcher's mound to the
Detroit dugout.
There wasn't even a play at
the plate and Hack, too, could
have scored on the error had
another run been necessary.
It was a wild ball game with
first one team and then the
other playing like bush leaguers,
lettin.-; in runs and playing like
a bunch of sandlotters.
Tigers Tie Score
For a time it seemed that the
Cubs, behind the y.eteran
Claude Passeau, were gong to
have an easy time of it, for they
knocked the Detroit starter,
Virgil Trucks, out of the box in
a fifth inning rally that netted
four runs and gave them a 4 to
1 lead. They increased it to 6
to 1 and then 7 to 3 before Pas
seau, suffering from an injured
finger, ran out of gas and the
Tigers came from behind to tie
with four runs in the eighth.
By that time there had been
a steady parade of pitchers to
the mound and finally it was
Hank Borowy who won the de
cision over Trout.

Mrs. Irene Mansfeldt, self-confessed killer of San Francisco nurse, is ques

Brown (left), district attorney of San Francisco City and County. A state
wide hunt is under way for her missing husband, Dr. John H. Mansfeldt.
Doctor Takes Own Life Rather Than
Face Shame of Wife's Jealous Act
San Francisco, Oct. 8 (U.R)
The bodies of Dr. John H. Mans
feldt, 47, and Mrs. Vada Martin,
the young nurse whom his wife
killed in trying to force an ad
mission of stolen love, awaited
burial today. He committed sui
cide, rather than face the shame
of his wife's action.
Mrs. Annie Irene Mansfeldt,
45, paced the floor of her room
in the psychopathic .ward of the
San Francisco hospital, where
she was taken from the city jail.
Her red hair was disheveled and
her eyes were rimmed from
weeping.
"I killed him," she cried. "I
killed my husband."
Mrs. Mansfeldt was charged
with murder for the fatal shoot

nurse who denied with her

FACE TRIAL
London, Oct. 8 (U.R) Rudolf
Hess, former deputy fuehrer of
the nazi party who flew to Brit
ain on a fantastic mission in
1941, left by plane for Germany
today to stand trial as a war
criminal.
Hess, unkempt and thin, left
Madcley air field near Abergav
ennv, Wales, for Frankfurt at
8:50 a. m. He was escorted by
an army guard.
His departure was one of a
swift series of events clearing
the way for the mass trials of
axis war criminals at Nuernberg.
Allied officials were conferring
at Berlin on plans for the trials,
and the first formal indictments
were expected to be returned
Tuesday or Wednesday.
Sir Hartley Shawcross, chief
British prosecutor of war crim
inals, said at a press conference
yesterday that Hess would be in
dicted in Germany within a few
days. Other ranking nazis named
in the first indictment also will
be served with notice of their in
dictment and given opportunity
and facilities to choose counsel,
Shawcross said.
Francis Biddle, United States
member of the war crimes com
mission and Judge John Parker,
his alternate, arrived at South
ampton yesterday aboard the
Queen Mary. They flew imme
diately to Berlin, where the tri
bunal meets tomorrow.

affair with Dr. Mansfeldt. Mrs.
Mansfeldt had seen her in the
doctor's automobile early one
morning as the nurse waited to
go on a case with him.
Mansfeldt's body was found
early Sunday in the front scat of
his automobile beside a lonely
cliff at Pedro Point in San Mateo
county. He had not been seen
since he dashed from a hospital
Thursday after his wife told him
what she had done.
Police had searched for Mans
feldt since Friday night when his
wife said she feared he would
take his life.
The San Mateo county coro
ner's office said Mansfeldt had
apparently taken a poison which
lulled him to sleep and allowed
him to die painlessly.

GEN. YAMASHITA
E
OF
Trial Adjourned to Oct. 29
After Brief Arraignment of
Accused Jap Commander
Manila, Oct. 8 (U.R) Gen.
Tomoyuki Yamashita, last Jap
anese commander in the Philip
pines, pleaded innocent before an
American military tribunal today
to charges of responsibility for
the rape of Manila and other
brutal atrocities.
The trial was adjourned until
Oct. 29 at 8 a. m after Yama
shita's brief arraignment.
Despite vigorous protests by
the prosecution, the five-general
court granted Yamashila's plea
to have two former members of
his staff, Lt. Gen. Akira Muto
and a Major General Utsuno
miya, aid in his defense.
Yamashila's counsel said both
Japanese generals had informa
tion and records unavailable to
Yamashita but vitally needed in
his defense. The prosecutor, MaJ.
Robert M. Kerr of Portland, Ore.,
told the court that both the gen
erals were awaiting trials as war
criminals themselves.
Tiger Docile
The Yamashita who docilely
uttered his plea in the military
court was a far cry from the gen
.eral who boasted last October
that he would dictate Philippines
peace terms to Gen. Douglas
MacArthur and who won the
nickname "Tiger of Malaya" for
his conquest of Singapore.
He wore a sort of hanging ex
pression as he was led into the
court room in the former ball
room of the American high com
missioner's palace. He scraped
and bowed as photographers or
dered him around for different
poses.
With him was his personal in
terpreter, Masakatsu Hammomo
to, who was graduated from Har
vard in 1927.

Armed Guards Posted Over
Navy Ministry Baron
Shidehara Forms Cabinet
Tokyo, Oct. 8 (U.R) Armed
guards of the First Cavalry di
vision tonight surrounded the
Japanese navy ministry after
United States officials said evi
dence had been discovered lead
ing to the belief that hoards of
loot from Japan's lost empire
might be stored in official gov
ernment buildings.
A terse announcement said
merely U. S. officials had learn
ed that "precious metal." pre
sumably stolen in Japan's years
of military conquest, was in the
navy ministry building.
May Find More
It was reliably reported that
more troops may be placed short
ly at other Japanese buildings to
guard similar hoards.
While the amount of treasure
involved was not immediately
disclosed, it was assumed Gen.
Douglas MacArthur's command
had discovered evidence of the
storage places in records of Jap
anese financial institutions order-1
cd seized more than a week ago.
Meanwhile, premier designate
Baron K i j u ro Shidehara com
pleted his "stop gap" cabinet of
liberals whose average age is 61.
Members will take office tomor
row and will serve until next
year's elections.
Divide on Selections
Selection of the cabinet met
with mixed reaction from the
Japanese. Many political ob
servers took the point of view
of the newspaper Asahi which
pointed out that the 73-year-old
Shidehara and his appointees
"belong to the category of old
timers." However, It was stressed
in other quarters that the cabinet
lineup was considerably more
liberal than the outgoing cabinet
of Prince Higashi-Kuni and was
the "best possible when restric
tions against including govern
ment leaders of the past 10 years
were considered."

Laval Trial Resumes Sans
Defendant, Lawyer, Witnesses
Paris, Oct. 8 (UR) The trea
son trial of Pierre Laval was re
sumed today without the defend
ant, defense counsel or defense
witnesses.
Laval's trial, the most fantas
tic in French history, reopened
an hour and a-half behind sched
ule after Judge Pierre Mongl
beaux and Minister of Justice
Henri Teingen tried in vain to
induce the former Vichy premier
to change his mind and come to
court.
With Laval defiantly absent
and only a few prosecution wit
nesses on hand, it appeared that
the trial would end by mid-week.
Mongibeaux ordered ihe trial
to proceed despite a storm of
protest against the court proce
dure which had seen judge aid
Jury taunting Laval and making
it clear that they were bent on
condemning him.
Today's first witness was Gen.
Paul Doyen, former head of the
French armistice delegation and
now military governor of Lyon.
Doyen, testifying in a har:,h,
parade-ground voice, said that
the Germans demanded the an
nexation of Alsace-Lorraine nnd
made other territorial demands
through the armistice commis
sion on which he served.
"Germany's intention was lo
dismember France," he said.
"To all Frenchmen who could
use their hands, the line of duty
was clear to continue the strug
gle. Any man who supported a
policy of collaboration was a
traitor. That was the kind of a
man Laval was."
