A cryptic telephone mes sage saying three persons had been shot near Kingman, Ariz., led to the grim discov ery of a one-year-old boy who spent more than 24 hours be side the bodies of his mother and grandparents. Raymond J. Hudgens, 22, admitted killing Grace Mary Hudgens, 20, and her parents, Dorothy Young, 55, and Myron Young, 67, after a rec onciliation attempt with his wife failed. Hudgens was seized with out resistance in a gas filled motel room in Van Nuys after the manager found him there trying to kill himself. Hudgens' wife and mother-in-law were discovered in their sleeping garments near the front door of the small house near Kingman. The boy, Raymond Jr., was found hungry but healthy. Elsewhere, there were these developments: Election: Final official re turns from the Nov. 6 general election showed that Gov. Edmund G. Brown defeated Richard M. Nixon by 296,758 votes.. The governor carried 38 of the state's 58 counties in rolling up 3,037,109 votes to 2,740,351 for Nixon. The total vote cast was 5,929,602, representing a turnout of 78.73 per cent, third highest in the state's history. Con troller Alan Cranston was the largest vote getter with 3,372,691 votes. Campaign: California's 1962 general election cost $4,855, 890 for the 16 candidates for eight statewide offices. Cam paign cost figures showed that Republican Richard M. Nixon and Democrat Edmund G. Brown spent a combined total of more than $3 million in their campaigns for the governorship. Revenues: Gov. Edmund G. Brown said California's rev enues were falling $40 mil lion below anticipations and asked governmental heads to hold the line. Brown said the state would "finish the fiscal year with a very marginal un committed surplus, perhaps as little as $3 million." But he said this would not affect his election pledge of no new taxes next year. Lockheed Negoti- ations between Lock heed Aircraft company, and the International Association of Machinists (IAM) were sus pended indefinitely by Feder al mediators because of lack of progress. Strike action by the union had been blocked by an 80-day injunction under the Taft-Hartley act. Machen: Eddie Machen, top-ranked contender for Son ny Liston's World Heavy weight boxing title, was found in a car with a loaded pistol and a suicide note, the California highway patrol re ported. He was taken to Napa State hospital and put under observation for his own pro tection. Patrolmen said Ma chen was arrested near Crock et, Calif. They quoted him as saying he was despondent and did not want to live. Girls: Two pretty teen-age girls, who said they did not love their mother and were kept prisoner by their father for seven months, were plac ed in foster homes. The sis ters, Bonnie Austin, 16, and Karen Austin, 15, said they broke a window to escape from the fathers house in suburban Mission Hills near Los Angeles during Septem ber. A charge against the father, Eugene Austin, 39, B consulting engineer, was dis missed in October. Juvenile Judge Vincent S. Dalsimer or dered the girls placed in sep arate foster homes and told them to visit both parents, be polite and keep an open mind regarding their parents. Search: Authorities called off volunteer searchers as hope ebbed for a five-year-old boy who had been missing in fog- shrouded Stockton for three days. The only scent bloodhounds were able to New Model ICBM Looks Impressive Cape Canaveral UPD The Air Force has rolled out the 1963 model of its Minutcman "instant ICBM," and it looks impressive. The rocket, whose 1962 or Wing I version went on offi cial combat-ready status last week, came back before its Cape Canaveral testers Fri day night with a pair of new motors. The result was a sparkling success for the so-called Wing II Minuteman. The missile streaked 5,000 miles across the Atlantic 400 miles farther than it has ever flown be fore and hurled its nose cone squarely into a target off the west coast of Africa. It was the second milestone of the week for the Minute man. Tuesday, the Air Force declared it to be the nation's third and possibly most fear some family of interconti nental ballistic missiles. Twenty of Ihe rockets are on station at Malmstrom Air Force base near Great Falls, Mont. These could be launch ed on 32 seconds' notice in event of a nuclear attack. The long shot for the Min uteman helped quiet some re maining doubts that the rock et is truly an intercontinen tal-range weapon in the same mileage class as the larger Atlas and Titan. Previously, the longest flight by Minute man was 4,600 miles. Ex-Dictator Awaits Fate in Florida Miami UPD Marcos Perez Jimenez, pudgy millionaire ex-dictator of Venezuela, has settled down to jail routine to await the announcement of his fate. Thus far, three judges have disqualified themselves from ruling on whether Perez may return to his $400,000 Miami Beach home or be extradited to Venezuela on charges of pilfering millions from the na tional treasury. Perez was free in $100,000 bond until he was picked up Wednesday by court order and hustled to jail to await possible extradition. The bond was returned to him. Federal district Judges Emett Choate and David Dy er disqualified themselves from ruling on the case Fri day despite the entreaties of Perez' attorneys. The two men said they had either made statements about the Perez case or had been connected with actions involv ing persons linked to the case. On Thursday, Federal Judge Warren L. Jones of Jacksonville disqualified him self from ruling in the case. He told attorneys for both sides to file briefs for consid eration by the three-Judge fifth Circuit Court of Ap peals, of which Jones is a member.

NATO Council Ends Three-Day Session Paris - (I'PD - The NATO Council concluded a three-day session here Saturday with expressions of renewed uni ty. But the rifts which have developed in the Atlantic Al liance were as wide as ever. The closing communique pledged NATO to "respond appropriately" in case of So viet attack. And in guarded, carefully worded phrases, it held the door open for a pos sible resumption of East-West talks but not just yet. It said NATO policies would be guided by "readiness to examine any reasonable pos sibility of reducing interna tional tension." This phrase in itself cov ered up a disagreement that emerged on the opening day when the United States and most of the NATO members rejected any talks with the Authorities Stage Raids on Elks Clubs Newport - IUPD - Authorities raided the Elks clubs at New port and Toledo Friday, net ting five slot machines at each establishment and more than 700 punchboards.
