THE WEEK IN CALIFORNIA California Leads Nation in Number Killed on Highways Shape Star fi ' ' 9491 ' ' SIZES . By United Press International California, as usual, led the nation in the grim toll of traf- flc deaths during the Thanks giving Day holiday. Durine the 30-hour period at least 20 persons were killed on the state's highways. Texas was second behind California with at least 14 deaths, lot lowed by New York with 12. The state toll was spit pret tv evenly between northern and southern California. One person also died from fire. Elsewhere, there were these developments: Lockheed: Lockheed Air craft Corp. and the Interna tional Association of Machin ists negotiated in a last-ditch effort to avert a strike scnea uled for Nov. 28. But each side held little hope for a set tlement since neither appear ed ready to concede to the other on the key issue - a union shop clause. The giant aerospace firm is the prime contractor for the Polaris submarine missile, Some 55,000 workers of two company divisions-Lockheed-California company and Lock heed Missiles and Space com pany - were involved. Affect ed were Installations at Hono lulu, Cape Canaveral and sev eral California plants - Van- denberg Air Force Base, Bur- bank, Falmdaie, van Nuys, Sunnyvale and Santa Cruz. The negotiations were con ducted in Burbank. Tug: The 55-foot tug Solano sank on Thanksgiving Day fol lowing a collision with the States Steamship company freighter California in dense fog near the San Francisco- Oakland Bay Bridge. Four persons, including a 15-year-old girl, were rescued. The Solano sank to the wheelhouse within three minutes, and out of sight within 20 minutes. The Californian sustained only a dent. The Coast Guard later scheduled a hearing to inves tigate the collision. Commute: President Kenne dy commuted the sentence of Gilbert Mora Zaragoza, 26, from life imprisonment to 20 years. Zaragoza was the first person in southern California to be tried under a federal law signed by former Presi dent Eisenhower in 1956, which provided for a death penalty for a person convicted of selling narcotics to a juve nile. He was convicted In 1957 but the jury recommended he "not suffer the death penally." Execution! Allen Ditson, so confident of escaping the San Quentin gas chamber that he didn't order a last meal, was executed for the mutilation killing of a partner in crime. By a strange twist of circum stances, Ditson's last dinner was one ordered by an ac complice who escaped execu tion for his part In the killing. Ihe accomplice, Carlos Cis- neros, 29, won a commutation from Gov. Edmund G. Brown the day before his scheduled execution. The sentence was commuted to life imprison ment without possibility of pa role because Cisneros "coop erated" with authorities. But Brown denied a commutation for Ditson, 41, who was con victed with Cisneros in I960 of killing Robert Ward. Ward was beaten with a hammer, driven to the desert in the trunk of a car, shot three times and dismembered. Ditson de nied guilt. Parly: A movement to form a new conservative political party in California was started by three Los Angeles resi dents. Ogden D. Scoville, Howard Jarvis and Lyda Hol ley filed articles of incorpora tion with Secretary of State Frank Jordan for "Conserva tive Party Inc." Jarvis bid unsuccessfully for the Repub lican nomination for U.S. Sen ator during the June primary election. In order to qualify for the ballot, the party must either get a petition of about 600,000 voters or have 60,000 voters register as members of the party. Clemens: Clara Langhorne Clemens Samossoud, the last living child of author Mark Twain, died in. a San Diego hospital. She was 88. Mrs. Sa mossoud, who suffered heart trouble and had been bedrid den for several years, entered the hospital Nov. 16. She lived in plush adjoining apartments with her husband, Jacques Alexander Samossoud, a re tired symphony conductor. One of her most cherished pos sessions was a 24-volume set of the complete works of her father. She was one of three daughters of the famed writer and was born in the home where Twain wrote "Tom Sawyer" and "Huckleberry Finn." Fraternity: Members of the Stanford university chapter of Sigma Nu fraternity voted unanimously to break a 71-1 year tie with the national or ganization. The action climax ed a two-year effort by the local chapter to eliminate dis criminatory clauses from the national chapter. The chapter became Stanford's first fra ternity in 1891. Chapter president Thomas Gray said "it is becoming in creasingly difficult to find pledges who are willing to accept membership in an or ganization which denies ad mittance to people on purely racial grounds." The action of the fraternity, one of the strongest on Stanford's cam pus with 67 members, was supported by University Presi dent Wallace Sterling.
