I Of Jack Whalen
i.
I Claims Defense
Los Angeles - (CPD - The
county Grand Jury met today
to determine whether the fatal
shooting of Jack (The Enforc
er) Whalen. in a crowded
restaurant was in self defense
as his admitted killer claims.
Sam Frank Locigno, 38, ac
companied by two attorneys
and Joe De Carlo, 35, surren
dered to police Tuesday and
confessed the fatal shooting
last Wednesday of Whalen in
nearby Sherman Oaks. ' De
Carlo, who was at the restaur
ant the night of the shooting,
was sought for -questioning
about the slaying.
Persuaded By Cohen
Mickey Cohen, ex -convict
and friend of Locigno, said he
had talked to Locigno and De
Carlo several days ago and
persuaded them to give up to
police.
"I induced them to come in
to save the taxpayers money
and to save some time and
problems for' some decent
members of the police depart
ment," said Cohen.
Cohen and his girl friend,
model, Sandy Hagen, 18, were
among witnesses subpoenaed
to testify before the grand
jury today.
Panel Investigates .'
De Carlo, former manager
of stripper Candy Barr, and
Locigno were sitting .at Co
hen's table the night of the
shooting.
De Carlo went before the
grand jury Tuesday shortly
after surrendering to 'police
and being released. The panel
began its investigation of the
shooting Tuesday before Lo
on gno admitted the shooting
and it then decided to com
plete its probe, probably late
today.

Friendship Told
By King Zahir
In Welcome Talk
Kabul. Afghanistan (UPD-
President Eisenhower landed
today in .this winter-bound
mountain nation at Russia's
back door on an airfield pa
troled by MIG jets of the Soviet-equipped
Afghan air force.
King Zahir and other. Af
ghan and foreign officials
were waiting to greet Eisen
hower when his special jet
touched down at 8:22 a.m.
(7:52 p.m. Tuesday, p.s.t.) on
the mountain-framed airport.
Six Russian-made MIG-17S
improved models of the jet
fighter bested, by America's
Sabrejets .over Korea - circ
led overhead, providing cere
monial air cover for the visit
ing Chief of State.
Zahir assured Eisenhower
of this . "genuine friendship
and-: sincere good wishes" in a
brief address of welcome.
"I hope the chill of our ear
ly winter will be made up for
by the warmth and affection
with which our people greet
your excellency and your
honorable companions," . the
king said. '
Eisenhower replied that
"true friendship is not only
desirable but essential" in a
world where jet planes flash
from continent to continent
at speeds near or exceeding
- the speed of sound.
"All of us live very, close
together in the 20th century,"
he said.
Eisenhower, traveled the 38
miles from the airfield to this
mile-high capital by car. Five
hours later, he returned by
helicopter to take off for In
dia. - -Weather
Clear and Czisp
The weather was clear and
crisp, with the temperature
just above freezing - a sharp
contrast to the snow last
week, which "was so heavy it
was uncertain fpr a time whe
ther the presidential plane
could land here. .
A dark-blue overcoat, a
muffler and a black fedora
shielded the President from
the cold.
Turbaned, heavily-r o b e d
tribesmen lined the road to
applaud as the President pass
ed. An arch of red flags over
the road where it joined the
main highway to Kabul bore
the message "welcome to the
President of the . United
States."
Few Women Appear
In Kabul, flag-waving chil
dren whose winter vacation
was postponed because of the
President's visit, joined the
crowds. Few women appear
ed - reflecting the Moslem
tradition that women's place
is in the home.
Native bands and long-haired,
gowned folk dancers en
tertained the crowds while
they awaited the President's
arrival. . . ' ..
The Afghan government"
has been taking aid from both
East and West. The United
States has poured millions of
dollars into such basic items
as education, while the Rus
sians have concentrated on
more tangible things. " ;.
Time did not. permit the
President to visit ; the most
ambitious U.S. project now
under way in Afghanistan -the
multi-million-doliar Hel
mand river development,
miles from Kabul.

Big Manhunt Staged
For Escaped Felons
Yanceyville, N.C. - (UPD
The biggest manhunt in mo
dern North Carolina history
was staged today for 19 psy
chopathic felons who escaped
from the Ivy. Bluff maximum
security prison.
The search for the' heavily
armed convicts extended over
the entire eastern sector of
the nation and into the South
and Midwest. The FBI also
joined in the hunt.
In central North Carolina,
posses searched from farm
house to farmhouse and from
barn to barn.
The fugitives" include 14
white men and five Negroes.
One Recaptured
The mass break-out Tues
day by 20 convicts was mas
terminded by Charles "Yank"
Stewart. It was so well plan
ned and executed that more
than eight hours elapsed from
the time the prisoners gained
control of the prison until the
alarm was sounded.
One prisoner was recaptur
ed later in the day.
Heretofore the maximum
security prison .had been con
sidered escape-proof and was
reserved for the state's most
dangerous and incorrigible
prisoners.
Y Stewart, the ringleader, was
described by authorities as a
short squat, graying man. His
crime career dates back to the
1920s when both his father
and brother were executed
for the slayings of a detective
and an FBI agent.
All Dangerous
Stunned prison officials said
the 54-year-old Stewart and
his cohorts were the worst of
the 41 men incarcerated at
Ivy Bluff.
"These men are all danger
ous," State Prisons Director
W. F. Bailey said. "They're all
psychopaths" and are armed
with eight high - powered
rifles, a submachinegun and
eight pistols.
Bailey blamed laxity and
failure to follow prescribed
rules and regulations for the
break -out. He fired three
guards on the spot.
