Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.), the vic tim of a borrowed Christinas present, gamely celebrated the remainder of the Yuletide week end Saturday from a hospital bed. The senator took a gay but disastrous ride in a young neighbor s new, flashy, soap box racer. The result: Several Navy Reviewing Conscientious Objector's Case Washington -OITB-T he Javy is expected to rule this week on its review of the convic tion of a Camp Pendleton Ma rine who declined to carry a rifle in service, the Marine Corps said yesterday. A Corps spokesman said the case, involving Pvt. Peter H. Green, is now before the Navy's judge advocate gen eral here for review. Green was tried by a gen eral court martial at the Ma rine Air Station, El Toro, Calif., last May and convicted of unauthorized absence from duty, wrongful possession of a liberty pass, 'malicious pub lication' of a statement about the Marine Corps, and disre spect toward an officer. The court sentenced him to two years, confinement, forfei ture of all pay and allowances for two years and a bad con duct discharge. Last Aug. 11, a review of the case resulted in reduction of the sentence to one year's confinement and forfeiture of pay and allowances for one year, but the bad conduct dis charge was not changed. At his trial. Green insisted that he should not have to bear arms on grounds of con scientious objections, a Marine spokesman said. - The case was reviewed further by the Navy judge advocate general in San Fran cisco before being forwarded to Washington. sprained ligaments in one of the senator's legs and an out-of-kilter senatorial kneecap. . The senator's 12-year-old son David started it all. Here as a spokesman told it is what happened: David has a home-made soap box racer. He always consid ered that it was a pretty fine pice of equipment. Eyes Bug Out But Christmas Day he saw something that made his eyes bug out. His school chum and neighbor, John Harrell, drove up in a shiny factory-made model that had turned up un der the Harrell Christmas tree. After a few trial heats, Da vid went home and announc ed he wanted to trade in his old heap for a new one. The senator said he wanted to see John's car before any deci sion was reached. Then Kefauver decided to give John's racer a trial run himself. Kefauver folded his 6-foot 3-inch frame into the little racer and shoved off with a laugh down a hill near his house in northwest Washing ton. Senator's Grin Disappears The racer picked up speed . the senator grinned. The racer picked up more speed . . . the senator continued to grin. The racer picked up more speed . . . the senator smiling reached for the brake. He couldn't find it. He stop ped grinning. And he stuck' out a foot. The racer slowed, but the senatorial foot bent under it. The racer swerved and turned over. Kefauver went back to his Christmas tree feeling a lit tle shaken but otherwise all right. However, this morning his leg pained him. He check ed in at Bethesda hospital. The doctors put his leg in a cast and put him to bed until Sunday. They also told him he would have to keep the cast on three weeks. The spokesman said Kefau ver was in good spirits. But there's bad news for David: Nix on that racer. mmmm 1 V. .-rtv. .. . w - .9, UNEXPECTED STRUGGLE The battle of eenysBupe CSi C THE 6RSATBST STRUSa3 CP THE STARTED AS A SKIRMISH BETWEEN UNIOM 7ROOPSS AND A COVP4NV CCNFECESATS INFANTS FREE WHEELING !m IS23 A COMBINATION FO'.LES SKATE-BICYCLE-SIOOTEH WAS PATENTED ND PRESENTED TO THE PL3L.IC AS A VEHICLE .
