Bathing Suit Pictures Blamed
For Attack on California Beauty
Santa Ana, Calif. 0J.fi) A
25-year-old father confessed to
day that bathing suit pictures of
beauty contest winner Donna
May Schurr, 18, drove him to
kidnap and rape her a second
time even though he had a
hunch he would be caught.
Sheriff's deputies said Jack
James Walker, married and the
father of a child, readily ad
mitted he had twice attacked
the blue -eyed, brown -haired
beauty by threatening her with
a knife.
Identifies Assailant
Walker was identified as her
assailant by Miss Schurr, who
was a runner-up in the Miss USA
contest and placed fourth as Miss
California of 1955 in the Miss
Universe international beauty
pageant.
Walker, an upholsterer, was
captured Tuesday night by Mis3
Schurr's fiance in a 100-mile-an-hour
chase shortly after the sec
ond attack.
Walker told deputies, "I had
a feeling I'd get caught." Depu
ties said he seemed unperturbed
by the charges against him. He
was booked on suspicion of kid
naping, burglary and criminal
attack.
Developed 'Yen' for Girl
Walker said he developed "a
yen" for Miss Schurr when she
posed for an advertising firm for
which he works. The suspect
told deputies he first attacked
Miss Schurr last March 26 when
she worked in a drive-in theater..
The second attack was de
scribed by the hysterical beauty.
She told deputies she heard a
noise in her home Tuesday night.
"I saw him (Walker) coming
down the hall," the beauty told
officers. "He had a knife in his
hand. I grabbed for the knife
and it cut me across the palm of
my left hand."
The beauty said "we drove to
an unoccupied housing tract"
near her home. Walker, she said,
forced her into a partly-completed
house and criminally as
saulted her.
Squad Car Joins Chase
The fiance, Lloyd Brett, 21,
arrived at Miss Schurr's home
just as the kidnaper was releas
ing her. Brett drove in pursuit
of Walker's car in a high-speed,
wild race through dark and nar
row back streets. A California
ticed the chase and joined in.
Orange County Sheriff jSmes
Musick said he would ask the
death penalty for Walker under
California's "Little Lindbergh
Law," which allows a death sen
tence in kidnap cases in which
the victim is harmed or injured.
Woman's Gun Spree
Puzzle To Husband
Fowler, Calif. (U.R) A
grief stricken father was at a
loss today to explain why his
pretty, redhaired wife shot their
two small sons with' his 30-30
deer rifle and then committed
suicide.
"I can't understand why she
killed them," Vincent McNam
ara said. "They had- everything
to live for. If it had just been
her, it wouldn't have been so
bad."
Bodies Found in Home
Police' Chief - Elden Winslow
said the bodies of Mrs. Vidella
C. McNamara, 32, and her sons,
3-year-old James Randolph and

How long before an expected
birth should a career woman
wife give up working at the of

should she return to the job? In
Uruguay the law is that a work

child's birth, and rest for a
month after. Her position is held
for her. She is given haff pay
for the period. It is also a law in
Uruguay that every , employed

Say, young fellow, are you
trying to win the affectionate
regard of a glamorous young fe
male? What technique are you
employing? Are you using psy
chology in your campaign to win
the lady's heart and hand? Ac
cording to some psychologists, a
very effective way to advance
your interests with a young
woman is to give her a pet
nickname. Call her "precious,"
"Bobo," "Lovey," "Honeybunch"
or something along those lines.
If she is redhaired, be certain
to get something connected with
her hair coloring in your pet
name. Call her "Rusty," "Brick
top" or something similar.

Watchdogs
The best watchdogs are fe
males.. When it comes to driving
away evil doers, the female of
the species is much' deadlier than
the male. The male watchdog
often falls for a friendly ap
proach. He can also be tempted
with a bone. The female can nei
ther be fooled nor tempted. Ex
perienced burglars know this
and avoid trying to break into a
house guarded by a female dog.

covered yesterday in the
Namara home, 11 miles south
of Fresno, Calif. "It's about the
worst, thing that ever happened
here," Winslow said.
Mrs. McNamara had been un
der treatment for e "nervous
condition' 'about six months ago,
Winslow said.
"McNamara told me that the
doctors said she could get upset
easily, that anything could get
to her."
Winslow said the youngest
child was shot as he was asleep
in his tiny bed.
Missed First Shot
"The other youngster evi
dently tried to escape. You could
see he started to run. Evidently
the woman shot at him once and
missed him. Then she. shot at
him' again. She got him in the
hip and the boy fell on the floor.
"Then she stood over him and
shot -him in the back. The bullet
went through his lungs and
heart just theway it did with
the other child." v
"Maybe it was my iault. May
be it was her's," McNamara told
the police. "We've had some
trouble. But I can't understand
why she killed the kids."
