Trial Nears End
For Starkweather
Lincoln, Neb. (IP) Charles
Starkweather, who is willing
to bet he'll get the electric
chair, today hears the state
try to knock down the de
fense claim that the 19-year-old
mass killer is insane.
The state was expected to
wind up its case today by in
troducing further testimony
in an effort to show that far
from being insane, Stark
weather was a calculating
killer who deserves the death
penalty.
The conflicting testimony
will be resolved by the jury,
which probably will get the
case Thursday after closing
arguments by the state andj
the defense.

Both Parties Comforted
By Last Election Vote
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Washington In assessing
the results of the Oregon pri
mary election, members of
the state's congressional dele
gation, Democrat and Repub
lican alike, found consider
able comfort in the way the
voters cast their ballots.
No one was more pleased
than Rep. Walter Norblad (R)
who was receiving congratu
lations from all sides this
week for his thumping vic
tory over challenger Philip
S. Hitchcock.
Not only did it mean the
delegation's lone Republican
survived a tough primary bat
tle, which was Norblad's per
sonal reason for comfort, but
the result eliminated a possi
ble future challenger for one
of Oregon's Senate seats now
held by Democrats. This was
probably most comforting to
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger
who will be up for reelection
m 1960.
Norblad, too, could make a
bid for the Senate, or even
for governor at 'some future
time, but having passed up
many past opportunities to
challenge incumbents in these
offices he is not regarded
here as a probable threat.
Moreover, the Democrats
think Norblad will be easier
for Attorney General Robert
Y. Thornton to defeat in the
general election for the 1st
district congressional seat,
than had Hitchcock won the
nomination. They followed a
practice in recent weeks of
not giving Norblad a hard
time so .as not to embarrass
him in the primary.
But in the face of his wal
loping victory over Hitch
cock, some Democrats are not
so sure he will be an easy

Six Students Die
In Denver Crash
Denver (IP) One of the
worst traffic accidents in Den
ver history took the lives of
six high school students Tues
day. The six, all between 16 and
18., were killed when their
1958 automobile smashed into
a steel pole on the Valley high
way in north Denver at 90
miles per hour.
Five were killed instantly.
The sixth died several hours
later in Denver General hos
pital. Police estimated the car
was traveling 90 miles per
hour when it swerved to the
gravel should at a cdrve and
skidded into the heavy steel
directional sign pole.
The victims were Al Gerald
Fleck, 18, Marvin Richard
Newberry, 17, Harry L. Hayes,
16, James Doyle Roberts, 19,
and Nairias Younger, 18, all
of Derby, Colo.; and Urban
Joseph Jacquec, 16, of Hen

Fort Clatsop
Memorial Asked
Washington HP) Dedi
cation of a Fort Clatsop na

gon Centennial year has been
asked by Sen. Richard L. Neu
passage of the Fort Clatsop
bill in the House.
The senator said he had
asked National Park Service
Director Conrad Wirth to ac
celerate construction of fa
cilities at the site in time for
next vear's centennial observ
ance. ' Neuberger suggested
that the interior department
include funds for the mem
orial in a supplement appro
priations request.
Under the terms of the
bill, he said, establishment
of the memorial can be af
fected when not less than
100 acres adjoining the site
have been acquired by the
Federal government either by
purchase or donation.

party or the other, the gover
norship not excluded.
The resounding victory of
Mark Hatfield in the three
way Republican race for
the governorship nomination
guarantees a red hot cam
paign between this young
GOP challenger and Gov.
Robert D. Holmes. Several
theories seem to have evolved
here from this prospect.
One is that a Holmes-Hat
field contest will enliven the
general election more than
would a Holmes-Unander race
have captured the interest of
the sort of voter who is apt
to stay at home in off-year
elections. If this improves the
voter turnout, it should help
the chances of two freshman
Democrts, Reps. Charles O.
Porter and Al Ullman, who
won by narrow margins in
1956 during the elections
which were made specatcular
by the Morse-McKay race and
the presidential contest.
Another theory held here is
that Hatfield will benefit in
the general election from a
tendency on the part of Ore
gon voters to support vigor
ous, youthful candidates,
which will make it tough for
Holmes to hold the governor
ship. But the same voting ten
dency will strengthen Porter
and Ullman, who've had a
term in Washington in which
to make a name for them
selves, and that they, along
with Rep. Edith Green inj
Portland may tend to
strengthen the entire Demo
cratic ticket to the advantage
of Gov. Holmes.
Mrs. Green, who won by
some 55,000 votes in her last
reelection race, is figured as
the strongest candidate in the
Democratic lineup in the most
heavily populated district in
the state. A strong Holmes
supporter, she may lend
strength to the governor.
The outcome of the gover
norship contest may, of
course, determine much in fu
ture Senate contests for the
seats now held by Morse and
Neuberger.
Will Holmes, if he wins, go
for Neuberger's seat in 1960
midway through his four-year
term? Will Hatfield, if he
wins, go against Morse in
1960? .
No one loves to speculate
more than politicians, and
these are questions they are
asking already.
