Finch Lawyer Most Fascinating
Character in Sensational Trial
By JACK V. FOX
Los Aneeles -(CPA- The most
. fascinating character in the
spectacular that is the Finch
Tregoff murder trial is not
the youthful looking doctor
or his statuesque mistress.
It is the lawyer for Dr. R.
m Bernard Finch - Grant Coop-
er.
Cooper appears to have won
; the jury completely. Not per
haps to the extent they will
'. acquit the surgeon. But they
r will think a long time about
- handing a setback to likeable,
.'affable, gentlemanly Grant
. Cooper.
Cooper Shapes Pattern
Tuesday at the trial he was
trying to establish the date of
. a boating trip. The witness
' said it was Father's Day.
' Cooper appealed to the court
room at large: "Does anyone
.know when Father's Day is?"
And two of the jurors quickly
replied it was June 21.
Until Smirnoff came along, nobody
had ever tried adding vodka to
orange juice. In fact, 10 years ago,
only 1 American out of 1000 had
ever tried vodka at all!
Today, the Screwdriver is one of
America's most popular drinks.
Made with smooth Smirnoff Vodka,
it leaves you breathless
AND 100 PROOF. DISTILLED FROM
80
Seldom has a defendant
gone into a trial with the odds
so stacked against him as did
Finch. He had cheated on his
wife. She was threatening to
take much of his money. He
went to her home with Carole
Tregoff. They waited in the
dark for Mrs. Barbara Jean
Finch. Finch held the gun
that killed his wife.
Those are all facts admitted
by Finch. But Cooper has fit
ted them into a pattern that
portrays the surgeon as an
absolutely- innocent man so
far as murder in concerned.
And observers at the mara
thon trial believe he has part
ly persuaded at least a few
of the jurors that the story is
true.
In Recess Today
The trial was in recess to
day until Thursday. Attorneys
conferred with the judge on
his instructions to the jury.
The fireworks really are over

now except for the closing
arguments and what a day
that will be for Grant Cooper.
He must be cast from the
same mold as a Clarence Dar-
row. After this, he is the un
doubted successor to ailing
and aging Jerry Giesler as
the lawyer to the Hollywood
stars.
Three of Giesler's associates
represent Miss Tregoff. But
they are so overshadowed by
Cooper that the prosecution
has complained that Cooper is
defending Carole more than
her own attorneys.
Not Very Smart
It was he who persuaded
them to put her on the witness
stand. She did not come off
too well. She fell back on "I
don't knows" and "I was just
frozen." She is not very smart
and she might have been far
better off never testifying.
it's delicious as a cocktail . . . and
wonderfully refreshing after dinner.
Just one more proof of how happily
Smirnoff blends with just about
anything that pours!
NOTE: There's a world of difference in
Vodkas. Be sure your Vodka is Smirnoff,
standard rodka of the world since 1818.

Churches Linked
With Communism
In Publication
Washington -fflPD- Sweeping
Pentagon and congressional
investigations were ordered
today into an Air Force Ite
serve training manual which
linked churches with Com
munism and termed as "fool
ish" demands for the Amer
ican people to know what is
gqmg on.
Air Force Secretary Dud
ley C. Sharp announced the
manual had been withdrawn
from use Feb. 11 but said a
full scale injuiry will be made
to find out who was respon
sible for the publication.
In Congress, Rep. John E
Moss (D-Calif.), chairman of
tne House freedom of in
formation subcommittee, or
dered his investigators to
"gather every f a c t." .. He
termed the manual as "an out-'
rageous display of arrogance."
Sharp in his statement
"categorically repudiated" the
viewpoint of the manual
which had brought a vehem
ent protest from the National
Council of Churches.
May Hold Hearings
He said that in addition to
finding out the individuals
responsible for the publica
tion, the Air Force will inves
tigate its other publications to
see if similar information is
being carried.
Moss told United Press In
ternational his group may
hold hearings on the situation.
"We want to know who wrote
it. We want to know who ap
proved it and we want to
know its distribution," he
said.
Defense Secretary Thomas
S. Gates Jr. was reported
"startled and stunned" at the
contents of the "manual.
Sharp said that he acted im
mediately on learning of the
existence of the manual Tues
day evening.
He found that Air Force
headquarters had directed
withdrawal of the document
last Thursday, the day the
church council sent a letter of
protest to Gates.
Used as a text for a training
course for noncommissioned
officers in the Air Force Re
serve, the manual contained
these quotes:
-"Communists and Commu
nist fellow-travelers have suc
cessfully infiltrated our
churches."
Pastors Said Communists
"It is well known that even
the pastors of certain of our
churches are card-carrying
Communists."
-"The National Council of
Churches of Christ in the
U.S.A. officially sponsored the
revised standard version of
the Bible. Of the 95 persons
who served on this project, 30
have been affiliated with pro
Communists fronts, projects
and publications."
"Another foolish remark
often heard is that Americans
have a rieht to know what's
going on. Most people realize
the foolishness of such a sug
gestion." 'Keen in mind that nublic
news media present only as
much information as the gov
ernment wants to release."
GETS ADDED MISERY
Vienna (UPD Ottoe Goelles,
31, told an appeals judge here
Tuesday his 10-month jail sen
tence for . stealing a shirt
should be dropped since his
confession was forced from
him by police. The ' judge
tacked on an extra year to his
sentence for slandering the
police department.

Nothing Exceeds
Air Force Missile
Program in Scope
(Continued from Pag 1)
No single research and de
velopment effort in U.S. his
tory exceeds the ballistic
missile program of the Air
Force alone in scope, says the
Air Force. And as a scientific
achievement, it probably is
outpaced only by the taming
of nuclear engery,
Yet it has been made clear
in the controversy now raging
in Congress that in these most
complex weapons in the his
tory of warfare Russia is out
producing the United States.
Democrats and Republicans
agree on that. Democrats say
the United States could be in
mortal peril over the next few
years as a result. Republicans
say that other weapons will
offset the Russian missile su
periority, and that there will
be no gap in American power
to deter war.
Russia leads in missile pro
duction for two reasons. It
started developing ballistic
missiles years ahead of this
country. After the thermonu
clear break-through in 1953'
54 pointed the way to develop
ment of light weight war
heads, the United States em
barked on a hurry-up program
to develop ballistic missiles.
Military men believe this
country no longer lags in
quality. The lag in numbers is
a matter of deliberate choice,
the administration preferring
to await development of an
advanced ICBM, the minute-
man, before producing vast
numbers.
The U.S. ballistic missile
program:
-The Atlas ICBM. The first
U.S. intercontinental ballistic
missile. Now operational in
the hands of troops at Van
denberg Air Force Base, Calif.
A second squadron will be
come operational at Warren
Air Force Base, Cheyenne,
Wyo., this spring. Thirteen
squadrons are planned over
the next two years.
Civil Rights Fight
Goes to Committeee
Washington (UPD - Civil
rights backers shifted their
efforts to the Senate Rules
Committee today in hope of
winning approval of legisla
tion to guarantee Negro vot
ing rights.
Chairman Thomas C. Hen
nings Jr. (D-Mo.) called a
meeting of the rules group to
consider the voting rights
proposals. But there was no
certainty of action today.
The Senate was scheduled
to convene early to plow
ahead with its overall civil
rights debate which brought
three test votes during a nine
hour session Tuesday.
Amendments Invitad
The official business before
the Senate is an unrelated
minor bill, affecting a Stella,
Mo., school district. But sen
ators have been invited to
make it a civil rights vehicle
by attaching amendments.
Sen. Kenneth B. Keating
(R-N.Y.) pro-civil rights mem
ber of the rules committee,
predicted there was enough
support in the nine-member
group to , approve a voting
rights proposal. But he would

- Titan ICBM. A liquid
fueled missile like the Atlas
but said by the Air Force to
have greater range and pay
load. Fourteen squadrons are
planned. It is about a year be
hind the Atlas in develop
ment. The only American bal
listic missile ever to perform
perfectly on its first flight
test. It has had four success
ful flights, and three failures
none of which was related to
the missile itself but rather
was connected with test de
vices. Test Flights To Start
-Minuteman ICBM. A rapid-firing,
solid - fueled, three
stage rocket. Due to enter
service in 1963 and to be in
stalled in both underground
launching sites and on special
Strategic Air Command rail
road trains. Test flights should
start this year.
-Polaris. A two-stage, solid
fueled missile to be carried
aboard nuclear submarines
and described by President
Eisenhower as "impossible to
destroy by surprise attack."
With a range of 1,200 miles,
the Polaris is due to go to sea
aboard the submarine George
Washington late this year.
Twelve such submarines are
currently planned. In its last
five test firings, irom cape
Canaveral, Fla., Polaris has
hit the bull's eye.
-Thor and Jupiter. Inter
mediate 1,500-mile range bal
listic missile. Not being em
ployed by U.S. forces. Four
Thor squadrons 15 missues
each turned over to British
Roval Air Force and in opera

The committee had before
it a plan for federal voting
registrars, advocated by the
Civil Rights Commission; At
torney General William P.
Rogers' proposal for a system
of federal voting referees, and
a bill drafted by Henri in gs to
combine features of the two
plans in a proposal for "fed
eral enrollment officers.
Mot Blocked
Tuesday, southern Demo
crats blocked a move ' by
Keating to get the judiciary
committee to act on long
stalled civil rights legislation.
Sen. Olin D. Johnston (D
S.C.) objected to Heating's
motion for approval of a seven-point
administration bill.
Johnston argued that the
committee could not legally
sit while the Senate was in
session. He was upheld by
Chairman James O. Eastland
(D-Miss.) and the committee
adjourned without acting.
