(UPI) Mendo cino county authorities today sought the arrest and extradi tion of a brimett girl for the slaying of former University of California basketball star Perry Ten Eyck. The shapely suspect, Mary Catherine Hampton, 19, San dy Hook, Ky., now is a state's witness in a murder case at Gooding, Idaho. Sheriff Reno Bartolomic said he had issued a murder warrant against the girl on the strength of a confession made at Raiford, Fla., by Em mclt Spencer, 20, convicted killer now awaiting electrocu tion at the Florida State Pri son for the slaying of John T. Keen, 5(i, Key West dock worker, April 14, 19(i0. Miss Hampton testified Wednesday at Gooding against Roger Hall, 22, a Crescent City bartender, in the murder of Dr. John Hunt, Portland, a forest pathologist and a Yale graduate. Bartolomie said the com bined confessions of Spencer and Hall and the testimony of Miss Hampton revealed strange tangled picture of murder involving the three. Picked Up Hiich-Hikers It started Aug. IS, 1959 when Ten Eyck, 53, was driv ing to his home in Alameda, Calif., after a visit with friends in Whittier. Ten Eyck was captain of the University of California basketball team in 1929 and a member of a prominent East San Francisco Bay family. He was in semi retirement and estranged from his wife. Ten Eyck started home along the Pasadena Freeway and stopped to pick up the girl and Spencer, who were hitch -hiking. The three stopped that night at a motel in Sunnyvale, Calif. It was there "we decided to kill him," Bartolomie quoted Spencer as confessing. Spen cer said Miss Hampton had suggested robbery at first. The next morning, the girl and Spencer talked Ten Eyck into driving them to Oregon. Bartolomie said that just north of Ukiah, the girl moved closer to Ten Eyck and urged him to pull to the side of the road. Ten Eyck assertcdly stopped the car and started to get out. Spencer said the girl pulled a pistol from her purse and hit the 210-pound former ath i lete over the head. Spencer took ' the- weapon and pistol whipped Ten Eyck unconscious. "I think that's the one that killed him," Spencer said. They drove the car to Cres cent City, Calif., where the machine was abandoned. The two rented an apartment. Made Trip to Idaho Bartolomie said the girl testified she first met Hall in Crescent City. All three drove into Idaho Aug. 24, where they decided to stage a hold up. They stopped Dr. Hunt, who was driving along High way 30 in his station wagon. Spencer crawled into the Hunt station wagon and hit the victim first, then shot him. The trio fled to Tijuana, Mexico, where they tried un successfully to cash travelers checks stolen from Hunt. Bartolomie said Hall left Spencer and the girl at Santa Maria, Calif., while he drove on to Florida. Spencer was arrested as the suspect in five Florida slayings. He con fessed to slaying Keen and was sentenced to death. Following t h e sentence, Spencer confessed to the Ten Eyek and Hunt murders and involved Hall and Miss Hampton. o A 11 SfefVfcemen Dennis Owen, son of Mr, and Mrs. D. L.
