HEM "J Scotsmen Intensify For Centuries-Old Glasgow, Scotland (UPD Scotsmen care only a wee bit about who slew Cock Robin. For them the question is who killed Red Fox? Men. women and children of Clans Cameron, Campbell, and Stewart still point accus ing fingers at each other al though the deed was done 208 years ago. Recent detective work by Lt. Gen. Sir' William Mac Arthur began a new campaign to find out just what happen ed that fateful day in May, 1752, on the tree-lined shores of Loch Linnhe. They called Colin Campbell the Red Fox because he had long red locks. He fought well, wore his tartan kilts Henry Fonda, Wife In Trial Separation New York-IUPII-Aclor Henry Fonda and his Italian-born fourth wife announced today that they have agreed on a trial separation to give them a chance "to work out certain problems in our marriage." Fonda, 55, and the former Baroness Afdera Franchetti of Venice, who is about 30, put a good front on their differ ences and arc still sharing an East Side town house. But Mrs. Fonda will leave for Rome Sunday for a two-month visit with relatives and friends. The couple was married March 10, 1057. Mrs. Fonda has since become a leader in the younger international so ciety set, while Fonda has pursued his career as one ofj America's highest paid film j and stage stars. , WALT DiSNEY'S sONFDERRJL NEW Aa CAfflOON FEflTURT ytiimdiiuns li ill !!

Red Fox and his brethren of Clan Campbell joined vic toriously with King George II against Scotland's Bonnie Prince Charlie who wanted the throne for himself. Clan Stewart lucklessly had sided with the bonnie prince and they paid the price. Get Spoils Red Fox and the other Compbclls got the spoils of victory - including some castles and land lost by the Stewarts. The Stewarts and the Campbells became like Kentucky's Hatfields and Mc Coys. So no one was too surprised on May 14, 1712, when Red Fox fell from his horse while riding by Loch Linnhe and it was discovered that somebody had shot him twice in the back. Red Fox died a few seconds later. But the mystery of who killed him did not. Reapportionment Plan Said Illegal Salem - Wll - Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton Wednes day ruled the Republican "preferred plan" for legisla tive reapportionment as un constitutional. The House Elections Com - mittee, which had approved and voted out a similar bill Tuesday, quickly called it back to study the implica tions. House Minority Leader F. F. Montgomery (R - Eugene) said he would "temporarily yield" to Thornton's opinion but added: "Some pretty emi nent lawyers disagree " Thornton said the plan is illegal because it doesn't give enough additional representa tion to Multnomah county.

Allan Brock Stew art - the hero of Robert Louis Stevenson's "Kidnapped" -was accused of the crime but escaped to France. So - for lack of a likelier suspect - an English court tried Charles Stewart's broth er, known as James of the Glen. Historians agree it was pretty much of a kangaroo court. They hanged James of the Glen one dark and stormy day alongside Loch Linnhe. But that only intensified the fuss. The story goes, that genera tions of Scotsmen have passed from father to son the "secret" of who the murderer really was. Some say Allan Breck did it. Others insist that four men of Clan Cameron rowed across the Loch, slew Red Fox to avenge a clan vendetta and paddled back into obscurity. Scottish newspapers have been filled lately with letters to the editors -'telling all." Scottish historical societies hold fierce debates on the matter. Two newspapers dispatched reporters to the scene of the crime in search of 200-year- 1 old clues. A Scots whisky magnate pledged to "blow the mystery of the murder sky high" by publishing certain documents found in the Duke j of Argyll's Inveraray Castle. Sir William said his sifting of yellowed letters and old wives' tales yielded no exact incriminating evidence. He said the jealously guarded "secrets" passed down by gen erations of clansmen tended to cancel each other out. Sir William doubts all the hidden "secrets." He said that even if all were told, they would still leave unanswered the question: Who killed Hed Fox? MON DESIR DINING INN NEAR CENTRAL POINT CLOSED FOR SPRING VACATION.
