Weed Boy, Dog
Go for Joyride
Weed, Calif. CU.R) Police
Chief Harold Barnum suffered
a bite on the hand here yester
day when he attempted to stop
a pickup truck being driven
through the streets by a six-year-old
boy taking his dog on a joy
ride. Young Richard Aquila made
three roundtrips over a six
block route before he was
stopped by Chief Barnum who
was summoned by three excited
women. Barnum arrived to see
what appeared to be a driverless
1948 model truck. Little Richard
alternated standing in the seat
to see over the wheel and sitting
on the floor to reach the ac
celerator. The streets were lined
with a throng of neighbors and
children.
Barnum leaped onto the run
ning board and when he reached
inside to turn off the ignition the
dog, who was obviously enjoying
the excursion, sunk his teeth in
the officers' hand.

Longview Woman
Dies in Brush Fire
Longview, Wash. !U.R) Mrs.
Mary Kemthorne, 69, died yes
terday in a brush fire near her
home at Slide Creek about 15
miles west of here.
The sheriff's office said it was
unable to tell if death was due
to burns or natural causes. Dr.
D. D. Davenport, Cowlitz county
coroner, said an autopsy would
be held.
- Mrs. Kemthorne's brother,
William M. Tappenten, 63, told
deputy sheriffs he saw his sis
ter collapse as they were fight
ing the fire. He said he dragged
her put of the path of the
flames, then ran for help.
. But he, too, collapsed, and it
was two hours later before he
was able , to make his way
through the woods to summon
help. By that time neighbors had
seen the fire and called forestry
department crews. Officers said
the flames apparently had pass
ed over Mrs. Kemthorne as she
lay unconscious or unable to
move. State forestry crews halt
ed the fire short of the Kem
thorne home.

ter Humphrey, 36, general de

dictment. A new indictment will be pre
pared and submitted to . the
grand jury, according to Dis
trict Attorney Walter Nunley.
Jury Choice Resumes
In Bombing of Plane
Denver (U.R) The defense
and prosecution continued to
day the slow, tedious task of
naming a jury to try John Gil
bert Graham on first degree
murder charges in the alleged
dynamiting of a United Air
Lines plane last Nov. 1.
" Eleven jurors and the alter
nate had been named by the
court recessed last night. But
each side still has eight peremp
tory challenges left, which
means the jury might not be
completed before tomorrow. .
Shortly before yesterday's re
cess, John J. Gibbons, one of
the 24-year-old defendant's court-
appointed attorneys, said the de
I fense had a "big surprise" for
the trial between the time the
jury is completed and the state
begins its case.
Gibbons refused to give any
inkling as to what the surprise
would be, however.
