metal Identification bands on their
legs. ......
The birds were In swimming

Another convict confessed but said
it was self defense.
George E. Harwood, 58, already
serving life for murder, told State
Police Lieut. Farlev Moean he
slashed the 17-year-old Worley in
deiending nimseu Irom attack.
Harwood signed a statement con
cerning the fight and was taken
to the Salem city Jafl to await

CLAUDE C. WORLEY
gree murder In 1932, made this
statement to Mogan and Warden
Virgil CMaUey:
He and young Worley got Into
an argument in the prison yard
and he (Harwood) went to his cell
to avoid prolonging it. He bad his
back to the cell door when Worley
struck him Irom behind and
knocked him to his cot.
Harwood said that after Worley
bit him again, this time In the
face, he pulled out a knife he had
hidden under his cot and slashed
at the youth.
Other convicts saw Worley run
from the cell on the fourth tier
and swing down to the third tier,
where he collapsed.
DEATH
They carried the boy to the
prison hospital but he was dead
on arrival.
The warden said Harwood and
Worley had been Involved in u
prison yard scuffle about a month
ago. .;
Harwood's prison record began
in 1920, and before his present
term he served two other sentences
at Salem for passing bad checks,
and also a term in the Washington
State Penitentiary. He. escaped
while serving one of the earlier
sentences but was recaptured.

aged man was beaten, robbed of
$340 and left for dead.

Eugene P. Book, 18: Robert Gene
Ambrose. 18: Jerry Tucker, n;
Kenneth Smith, 16; and Jack Am

mined that Worley probably was
not one of the boys who attacnea
Wick, but that he furnished the
car used by the six In cruising
around huntlntr someone to rob.
Worley suffered two knifa
wounds In the fight with Harwood.
Dr. Homer Harris of the State
Police criminal laboratory at Port
land said after an autopsy tnat

and the military say the natlon'a
arms production everything
from jet engines to atom bombs
and nuclear submarines will
come to virtual halt within a
few weeks If the steel strike con
tinues. A survey of manufacturers and
defense experts Friday showed
that In general enough steel Is on
nana to eke out production until
some time in August, but that In
some instances the Impact of the
steel production stoppage already
is Deing ten,
The situation goes beyond the
non-delivery of unishea weapons
themselves. If the hard steels need
ed for tools can't be had, the wea
pons can't be made. The effect of
that can be far-reaching. .

The Defense Department has

But the department expects both
measures to produce only minute
amounts of steel compared with
the vast tonnages needed.
RAWLINGS
Lt. Gen. E. W. Rawllngs, com
manding general of the Air Mater.

the strike has not greatly affect

He added in a statement, how
ever, that "if the strike lasts long
enough there are certain to be

Shortages in ammunition al

major items in this category is
the 4.2 - Inch mortar shell. Iven
in the present stalemated phase of
the Korean War thousands of these

Each shell contains about '- 25
