Top Lawyer Aids Starkweather; Trial End Nears Lincoln, Neb. W A gray ' haired lawyer who used to act in stock companies undertakes I the unenviable role today of! persuading a jury it should j not execute mass killer Charles Starkweather. The lawyer is T. Clement Gaughan, one of the smooth est trial lawyers in the Mid west In the three weeks of the trial, he has emerged as the dominant personality in the courtroom. The case was expected to go to the jury of eight women and four men this evening. Another defense lawyer and two prosecutors were to make their closing statements today, too. Starkweather is being tried for but one of his 11 slayings that of Robert Jensen, 17. He faces counts of first degree murder and murder with rob bery. Should the jury find him guilty of those charges, it must set a penalty either of exection or life imprisonment. Gaughan largely has suc ceeded during the trial in erasing from the courtroom any of the panic and rage that swept Lincoln last Janu ary when riddled and lacer ated bodies were found from the slums to the best residen tial sections.
