Ukiah, Calif. (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.
