Ran dall in Hennepin County Court. Thompson, 35, was a rising St. Paul criminal attorney un til the savage bludgeon-stab murder of Carol Thompson, mother of four, in their High land Park home in St, Paul last March 6. Reveals Girl Friend Randall, his six-three frame hunched over a little blue lectern sitting on the coun sel table, jabbing two skinny fingers constantly toward the jury box, stood only 10 feet from the sitting defendant when he brought out the existence of a girl friend. He said the state would show Thompson had financed her training in a secretarial school before she got a job in his of fice, had taken her dining and dancing in the Twin City area. "The state will show that on several occasions he rented ho tel or motel rooms and there spent the night not with Car ol," Randall said. His voice rising In a meas ured cadence, Randall said the state would show that Thomp son in 13 months before Carol's murder had accumulated $1, 055,000 in accidental death in surance on her, of which he was the beneficiary. Charges OrlRlnul Planning Randall disclosed the state expects to prove that the mur der was planned originally for March S, but thai something went wrong with the plan. He indicated the killer lurked in the basement and was to be cued by the ringing of a tele phone at 8:25 a.m., at which time he would mount the base ment stairs and slug Mrs. Thompson standing at the only telephone In the house on the back of the head with a rubber hose, Randall said Thompson had identified a length of hose, found in the house after the murder, as his. The state also will show, Ran dall said, that the defendant "instigated, planned and helped in this murder. "Just 14 days after the death of Carol Thompson, this de fendant turned over to another attorney an unmarked envelope containing 25 sioo bills," nan dall said. "He told another attorney to deliver this to Norman J. Mas- trian, and the attorney did, and told Mastrian it was 'a return of a fee'," Randall said. Mastrian is accused as the "middle man" in the case. Grain Elevator Damaged by Flames TEKOA, Wash.

MANY, MANY MORE STYLES AND SIZES HAVE BEEN ADDED MENS WOMENS AND CHILDRENS SHOES MEDFORD SHOPPING CENTER Negro Demands, White Reaction Of Major Concern By RAYMOND LAIIR WASHINGTON (UPD-Voters elect governors in Mississippi and Kentucky and a mayor in Philadelphia Tuesday in off-year balloting that may reflect the political impact of the civil rights issue. Political strategists were watching these contests with particular interests because Ne gro demands and white reaction to them have been of major concern in all three races. Hundreds of other elections for state, county and city of fices will be held across the na tion, but state and local issues appeared predominant in most of them. Major cities holding munici pal elections include Cleveland, Columbus, Youngstown, Akron, Canton, Toledo and Day ton, Ohio; Boston; San Francisco and San Diego, Calif.; Roches ter and Niagara Falls, N. Y.; Indianapolis, Ind., and Tucson, Ariz. Congressional Election One congressional scat also is at stake Tuesday. Pennsylva nia's 23rd District is holding a special election to fill the term of the late Rep. Leon M. Gavin, a Republican. Albert W. John son, the GOP candidate, is heav ily favored over Democrat Wil liam T. Hagcrty. The Philadelphia mayoralty race took on special significance because President Kennedy vis ited the city last week and closely aligned himself with the Democratic battle to retain con trol of the city hall. Democratic Mayor James H. J. Tate is running for his first term against Republican James J. McDermott. Tate has ac cused McDermott of making a "play" for the white vote. Mc Dermott has accused Tate of faltering action that prompted racial unrest. The election is being watched for the reaction of both Negro voters and those while residents who may (eel that the Negro has been pressing his demands too fast. Tate is favored to win but by a smaller margin than Demo crats have compiled in recent years. Kentucky Situation Similar A similar situation prevails in Kentucky, where Republican t.miio B. Nunn oddoscs Demo crat Edward T. Breathitt Jr., for governor. Breathitt is backed by retiring Gov. Bert Combs. At issue in Kentucky is an executive order issued by Combs this year which forbids racial discrimination in all busi ness establishments licensed by the state. Kentucky Republicans have said they have a chance to win the election, although mey are outnumbered 3 to 1 in voter registration. In Mississippi, Republicans and Democrats have vied with each other in denouncing the Kennedy administration's civil rights stand. Lt. Gov. Paul B. Johnson is the Democratic gu bernatorial candidate opposing Rubcl Phillips, a Democrat-turned-Republican who now fa vors Sen. Barry Goldwatcr, R Ariz.. (or president. Phillips has contended that Johnson and retiring Gov. Ross Rnrnett. who cannot succeed himsclt. gave only token resist ance to the admission o( James Meredith, a Negro, to the Uni versity o( Mississippi last year. Juveniles Questioned About Air Rifle Shot Sheriff's deputies warned two juvenile boys and released litem alter receiving a complaint that an eight-year-old boy was shot in the foot by an air rifle.
