AUSTIN, Tex. (UPI) - Sat
isfactory progress in his recov
ery from bullet wounds and then
a blood clot in his right leg will
allow Gov. John Connally to go
home from the hospital this aft
ernoon. The Texas Governor shot by
President Kennedy's assassin,
was reported Saturday by his
doctors at St. David's hospital
to be making a good response
to treatment for the blood clot.
An indirect result of the
wounds, the blood clot formed
in the superficial vein In his
right calf where a tube was in
serted to feed Connally intra
venously. He will continue to undergo
medical treatment for that com
plication at the two-story man
sion near the state capitol. His
doctors said the Governor must
remain in bed through next
week but fewer injections to dis
solve the clot and blood tests
will be necessary.
St. Davis's is the second hos
pital the Governor has used as
his headquarters for the state
government. Taken to Parkland
hospital in Dallas immediately
after the Nov. 22 shooting, Con
nally underwent surgery for
wounds from a single bullet that
hit him in the back, passed
through his chest, broke his
right wrist and then landed in
his left thigh.
Tho Governor's aides worked
out of an office at the Dallas
hospital for 13 days until he re
turned by plane to Austin on
Dec. 5, his right arm in a heavy
cast.
When the blood clot develop
ed, Connally was taken to the
Austin hospital last Tuesday for
intensive care. Two physicians
from the Southwestern Medical
Center at Dallas, Dr. Tom
Shires and Dr. Eugene Frenkel,
flew to Austin to consult with
local physicians.
Connally fell well enough
MONTVILLE, Conn. (UPI) -Police
said two brothers and a
woman found dead Saturday in
a parked car were the victims
of a bizarre "Friday the 13th"
suicide pact.

al court jury here Friday after
noon found three men guilty of
mail fraud and conspiracy in
connection with the sale of de
sert land 22 miles south of
Burns.
Four other defendants were
acquitted.
The verdict was returned aft
er about nine hours of delibera
tion. The trial lasted two
weeks.
Convicted in the sale 0 one
acre Lake Valley estate sites
were John Milton Phillips Jr.,
38, Evanston, III.; Jack C. Cher
bo, 37, Chicago; and Richard
Dale Walker, 41, Los Angeles.
Four Innocent
Found innocent were Abra
ham L. Koolish, 70, and his
son, David, 42, both of Winnet
ka, 111.; George Edward Isaacs,
31, Glcndale, Calif.; and Mau
rice Arthur Hall, 39, Beverly

Sentencing of the three men
found guilty by the jury of six

Feb. 4 in Portland. They were
released on their own recogni
zance by Federal Judge John F.

The defendants were connect
ed with a 6,919-acre subdivision

brochures used to promote the
project.

ABERDEEN, S. D. (UPI) -
The first two girls of the Fisch
er quintuplets went home from
the hospital Saturday.
The two, Mary Magdalene, the
second born, and Mary Marga
ret, the last born, cried lustily
as they were taken to join their
quint brother, James Andrew,
in the lavender - colored nurs
ery at the Fischer home.
The father, Andrew, and his
wife, Mary Ann, took the little
girls born exactly three

ily's new car. The tots were
bundled against the 10 -below-

their great-grandmother.

the Fischers' five other children.
Neither Andy Fischer nor his
wife spoke to reporters as they
left the hospital or when they
arrived home, where the five
older children were standing
outside to greet the new arrivals.
But Mrs. Fischer flashed a
smile.
An attorney for the Fischers

family is making its home un
til a new house can be built

Mrs. Fischer and her mother
are taking care of everything."
Sicgel declined to say who had
been hired to help the parents
care for the quints or the salary
involved.
Hospital authorities said Mary
Magdalene and Mary Margaret
were sent home Saturday "sim

clined to say whether the other
girls, Mary Catherine and Mary
Ann, would be home by Christ
mas. But there was believed
to be a possibility they would

here Saturday to determine if It
should make a study of fire in

The League of Oregon Cities
has requested such a study,
charging that rating bureaus do
not properly reflect city im
provements in fire-fighting abil

were W. F. Williams and Carl
Wccis. of the National Board of
Fire underwriters. San Francis-
not the ability of individual
cities to fight fires.
Don Jones, speaking for the
league of cities, charged the un
derwriters' manpower require
ments were unreasonably high
ments were unreasonably high
and inflexible, and that fire
rating schedules are not pre
pared or revised in consultation
with city officials.
The cities want more credit
given for fire prevention work.
