Whichello made the s u r p r is e announcement of calling Stevens as a witness shortly before the trial was recessed Wednesday until Monday. A virus epidemic caught one of the jurors and a de fense lawyer and both the state and defense agreed to the recess rather than replace the male juror with one of the four alternates. Two hoodlums arrived Wednesday night to be on hand Monday along with Ste vens to testify for the state. The men were contacted in Las Vegas, Nev., where Finch and Miss Tregoff sought a paid assassin to kill Mrs. Finch, the state claimed. John P. Cody was brought in custody from a Minnesota jail where he was serving a term on a bad check charge. He already has testified be fore the grand jury, which in dicted Finch and Miss Tregoff that the couple paid him $1,400 to kill Mrs. Finch. The state said Cody never plan ned to carry out the plot and instead used the money to gamble in Las 'Vegas. The other man was Richard A. Keachie who admitted, in troducing Miss Tregoff, to Cody. Keachie currently is free on $2,500 bail in Nevada on a charge of transporting prostitutes from Minnesota to Las Vegas. ' Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF 1 " THE CONCLUSION of a ninth floor of a Broadway 1' i audience tried to crowd lime. The late Fred Allen1 was herded into one ele- vator, and so was a very stout lady, just before the door was shut. 'My husban d!" screamed the fat . lady. "You've left him outside! You, shut the door in his face! He was with me!" Fred Allen tapped her on the shoulder. "Coiir r.ge, madam," he coun seled. "This elevator is not the Titanic!" A gentleman boarded one of those new coast-to-coast jet planes in New York the other day and settled down to his newspaper. A stewardess interrupted him to ask, "Wouldn't you like to take off that heavy raincoat?" "Thank you, no," replied, the man. 'Tm, not going all the way to Los Angeles, you see. I'm getting off at Denver." 1960, by Bennett Cerf. Distributed by King Features Syndicate MM I TONIGHT Ada Belle Cafe 125 West Main Street FEATURING 8 oz.
