Daniels Shooting
Indictment Dismissed
New York U.R) Indict
ment charging cafe singer Billy
Daniels with shooting a fellow
patron of a Harlem bottle club
last Jan. 31 have been dismissed.
General Sessions Judge Ja
cob Gould Schurman ruled that
Grand Jury testimony failed to
stablish that Daniels even had
a gun..
Dist. Atty. Frank S. Hogan,
who has been feuding with
Judge Schurman over the hand
ling of several recent cases, said
his office would appeal the dis
missal. The victim of the shooting.
' James Jackson, 33. a fight train
er, had told police and the
Grand Jury he did not know who
fired the shot that wounded him.
Schurman said Ramona Davis,
sister of entertainer Sammy Da
vis. Jr., the state's key witness
against Daniels, had told the
Grand Jury four different ver
sions of the late at night shoot
ing, all of them at variance with
Jackson's testimony.
Brink's Informer
Slain; Clues Hinted
Boston U.P) Fingerprint
experts today examined a 1956
Cadillac found burning in a rail
road yard Monday night in a
hunt for clues to the gangland
slaying of Brink's informer Wil
liam F. Cameron.
The automobile, bearing New
Jersey license plateS, was dis
covered aflame in the sprawling
New- Haven railroad yard in
Roxbury. The cars owner, a
Union City, N.J., woman visit
ing relatives here, was being
questioned by police.
Authorities were hopeful -the
automobile would provide a link
with the murder early Sunday
of Cameron, who was reported
to have had two bullets pumped
into his head because he
"squealed" on the hiding place
of the last two suspects arrested
in the $1,219,000 robbery.

Under broadly relaxed Fed

a Washington. DC, dealer re

States gold coins, bullion and
gold certificates, collectors were

Young Polish Archer
Makes Freedom Break
London (UP.) A young Pole
brought to England as a member
of a visiting archery team made
dramatic break for freedom
Sunday under the very noses of
his Communist teammates, it
has been disclosed.
The refugee was handsome 22-
year-old Roman. Kazimierczyk
who joined his brother and
mother in England. They , were
deported by the Russians in
1941, escaped to England and
had noi seen Roman in 15 years.
His rescue was staged with the
help of a group of Polish refu
gees now living in Britain and
carried out despite the careful
watch kept on the archery team,
whose members were making
their first visit outside the Iron
Curtain.
The Polish Embassy joined in
an unsuccessful search for Kazi
mierczyk and forced the re
maining members of the archery
team to move from a small Brit
ish hotel to the Embassy itself.

posts in North Korea.
Truce teams were ousted from
South Korea Saturday by the

the inspectors and violated the

the Young Republican Club of
Kansas' largest county, Sedg
wick. Having served a year as
president of the Kansas Col
legiate Young Republicans, he
said the GOP leaders should not
overlook the enthusiasm, en
ergies and talents of Republican
youths in colleges and univer
sities. That apparently turned the
trick for the crew-cut married
student who has studied account
ing but who this fall will return
to law courses.
Kansas will have six GOP
electors. Republicans in Kansas'
most populous fourth congres
sional district unanimously ap
proved having young Scott's
name on the ballot.
