Actions Of Girl
Alter Shooting 01
Father Described
Bridgeport, Conn., Jan. 27
(U.R) Four horsemen of light
pity, sympathy, love and mercy
rode today with a slim, blonde
girl in her battle against the
slate of Connecticut.
The girl was Carol Ann Paight.
21, who so loved her father that
when he cried out in the pain of
an incurable' cancer she sent
him to what she considered a
merciful death with one shot
from his revolver.
Face Sickly While
Three state witnesses testified
in her murder trial yesterday
that just after the shooting they
saw her leaning against a hos
pital corridor wall, her face a
3ickly white. But they said she
was cool and calm.
One witness, a doctor, said
she talked "perfectly sanely."
Another, a detective, said she
told him that before the shoot
ing she went deliberately into
the woods near the hospital and
fired a practice shot with her po
liceman father's .38 service re
volver "so I would know what
I was doing."
The defense pleaded tempo
rary insanity, saying she was
driven out of her mind for a
time by grief and pity and love.
But Detective Capt. William
J. Lynch of Stamford, Conn., tes
tified that at 8:30 p. m. last
September 23, 2 hours and 40
minutes after she had put a bul
let through the brain of Police
Sgt. Carl W. Paight, 52, Carol
told him rationally why she had
acted.
Malice Charged
"She said she had shot her
father and she didn't care what
people thought or what they did
to her but she wouldn't see him
suffer," Lynch said.
The state charges Carol act
ed deliberately, "with malice
aforethought." Because that is
a crime against the state, she is
charged with murder in the sec
ond degree. If found guilty, she
will be sentenced automatically
to life imprisonment.

Robinson Opposes
CVA; Lesseg To
Head Young GOP
'Warren G. Lesseg, Medford at
torney, was elected president of
the Jackson County Young Re
publican club at the club's an
nual meeting last night at Valen
tine's cafe. He succeeds Paul
Havlland and will serve for two
years. Haviland was named a
director.
Fred E. Robinson, Medford, re
publican candidate for United
States senator, addressed the
group and answered questions.
He favored development of the
Columbia river basin but not by
a "dictator" program.
Opposas CVA
He indicated the opinion that
the present Columbia Valley
authority proposal is that type
of program, and added that he
feared CVA as a tool to break
up prlvato enterprise. "We don't
want to set up a political
regime," he declared, adding
that the people through their
representatives may be unable
to get the power back once it is
delegated to the proposed three
man board.,
Regarding fair employment
practices legislation, Robinson
stated that he felt there should
be no discrimination in employ
ment as to race, color, creed. He
said that an FEP commission
could be all right if administered
as it should be as an absolutely
true and functional board repre
senting the groups involved,
labor, management and the pub
lic. Against Reapportionment
The young republicans at the
session took the stand that the
present system of apportion
ment for the legisloture is more
adequate for the state's needs
that the current plan advocated
for reapportionment.
Other new officers are Mrs.
Kay Jandreau, Medford, vice
president; Mrs. Marion Langley,
Medford. secretary treasurer,
and Earl Schilling, Ashland, di
rector. All new officers were
elected on unanimous ballots.
