Nebraska Killer's
Execution Could Be
Postponed for Years
Lincoln, Neb. (UPI)
Mass killer Charles Stark
weather will have to wait
months, perhaps years, to
find out whether he will be
executed under a death sen
tence handed down June 7.
Starweather's execution has
been set for Dec. 17 but the
legal processes of Nebraska
make it almost certain the
sentence will not be carried
out at that time.
A state law passed by the
1957 Legislature requires the
Nebraska Supreme Court -to
review all capital punishment
sentences.
The law is the result of at
tempts to outlaw the death
sentence in the state. The
Legislature refused to abolish
the electric chair but set up
the review as a compromise.
30 Days for Appeal
The law gives Starkweath
er's court-appointed attorneys
30 days to prepare an appeal,

Illinois Town
Braced for Floods
Streator, 111. (UPI) This
city of 17,000 battled its
worst flood in history today
in the wake of a fire and ex
plosion that destroyed a four-
story building, killing at least
five persons and injuring 10
Residents braced for even
greater flood damage as au
thorities warned two giant
crests were surging down the
Vermillion river toward the
city.
Torrential rains ranging up
to six inches Monday trigger
ed the floodwaters which
threatened to knock out the
city's water and sewage dis
posal plants. About 500 per-
sons were .evacuated from
' their flooded homes.
The floods also were
blamed for a sewer gas explo
sion and fire that ripped apart
the Williams Hardware Co,
. building in the business dis
trict.

lows 70 days for the attorneys
to file briefs containing cita
tions supporting the appeal
arguments.
When the appeal reaches
the Supreme Court, the juris
diction of prosecution changes
from the county attorney to
the attorney general.
He then has 30 days to an-
swer tne Drieis iuea uy uic
defense. Next, the case is
docketed for hearing. Crimin
al cases have priority on the
docket but there is no way of
determining the delay at this
point.
Each side is aiiowea
minutes to present its case be
fore the Supreme Court. A
decision usually follows with
in 30 days.
If the court affirms the
sentence, the defense is allow
ed 20 days to ask for a re-hearing.
A ruling on re-hearings
usually takes about two
weeks.
During the Supreme Court
proceedings a stay of execu
tion is granted and after de
termination of the case a new
date is set if necessary by Su
preme Court mandate.
The law provides that exe
cution must take place at
least 100 days after a judge
ment is pronounced.
May Go To U. S. Court
From the state Supreme
Court the case may be appeal
ed to the Supreme Court of
the U. S. and Starkweather's
attorneys have indicated they
will do this.
Another stay of execution
is granted by the U. S. Su
preme Court until it disposes
of the case. If its verdict is
unfavorable to the defense,
the case could be appealed
through the federal court sys
tem. One Nebraska murder case
which was carried into the
federal court system recently
resulted in the order for a re
trial. The original trial was
concluded in 1954. The state
has appealed the federal re
trial order and the end is not
yet in sight.

The Hollywood Scene
Hollywood (UPI) Any
body who says Hollywood has
forgotten how to stage an
all-out, frankly phony publi
city stunt to sell a new movie
obviously wasn't in San Fran
risco the ohter day.
The gimmick was inspired.
The studio, 20th Century-Fox,
decided to "sneak" with prop
er advertising, of course, its
latest science fiction thriller,
"The Fly."
To prove that this is the
kind of movie makes the
"House of Wax" and "Phan
tom of the Opera" a cup of
weak tea by comparison, the
studio decided to sprinkle a
' handful of monsters through
out the huge theater.
Unfortunately, it was neces
sary to import monsters. Eight
young acting students answer
ed the call and the makeup
man had his hands full. .

Microbes Found In Eastern Pine
Washington (UPI) Two i pared a map of pine tree areas
microbes which cause a seri
ous and sometimes fatal dis
ease similar to tuberculosis
have been discovered in the
pollen of the eastern pine tree.
Dr. Martin M. Cummings,
director of Veterans Admin
istration research here, said
two chemicals found in the
wax of pine pollen are sim
ilar, if not identical, to mate
rials found in sarcoidosis
lesions.
VA research has come up
with some interesting statis
tics on this disease. It has pre-
on the east coast which coin
cide closely with distribution
of the disease.
A chart prepared by VA
showing the birthplaces of
1,200 veterans with the dis
ease shows correlation be
tween the tree and sarcoido
sis. Although sarcoidosis is not
widely found in the United
States, Dr. Cummings said VA
research studies have shown
that there are about five
cases among each 100,000 hos
pitalized white veterenj
rate is about 50 argoUg) h
100,000 hospitalized mom-iite
veterans.

This year, why
thing,
gued.
It went off like clockwork.
A short time after the Techni
color chiller starring Vincent
Price began to take on night
mare aspects, the Wolf Man
went up the theater scream
ing, it plainly was too mucn
for him!
It wasn't clear just why the
Hunchback of Notre Dame
left the movie so early but
some people suspected he had
tired of his sub-teen-ager seat
mates punching the basket
ball sized hump on his back
which was enhanced by the
red underwear he wore.
Spaceman's Air Disappears
The spaceman, meanwhile
rocked his way out when an
air hose failed to function and
his face began to turn a little
blue within its fish-bowl casing.
And it's just a wonder that
Dracula was permitted to
leave the movie house under
his own steam. A couple of
high school boys looked ready
to wrap the vampire's black
satin cape around him. "He's
not going to kiss my girl on
the neck again, ' one of them
muttered.
Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll,
and the Ape Man left in a
group.
"What a way to make a liv
ing," growled the Ape Man.
