' ' ' Photo by Stoner j Sheppard Defense Plans To Dispute State's Evidence CLEVELAND Wl The defense prepared to strike back today 'tgainst surprise testimony that the imprint of a surgical instrument was found on slain Marilyn Shop ping's bloody pillow. "We're not just going to lay down and admit it was a surgical Instrument," William J. Corrigan, chief detense attorney for Or. Samuel H. Sheppard, said. The white-haired, 67-year-old-at-torney admitted he had not known about the claw-shaped mark on the pillow, but declared firmly he was not surprised, "nothing is a surprise to me." Dr. Sheppard, a 30-year-old oste opath, is accused of killing his wife, Marilyn, 31, in the bedroom of their lakefront home July 4. Asst. County Prosecutor John J. Mahon said the pillow slip was the "surprise" evidence which the prosecution previously said it planned to spring at the trial. . Its introduction, through testi mony of County Coroner Samuel . R. Gerber, completely overshad owed other events in the trial ses sion yesterday. (Joroner Gerber, who for a pe riod following the murder served as top Investigator, was on the stand most of the day. The state said it would complete its direct examination today and surrender the witness to the defense for cross examination. Corrigan is expected to spend at least a day hacking away at Dr. Gerber's testimony. The two have tangled several times in the past. Last July, the peppery, gray haired little coroner tossed Corri gan out of an inquest he was hold ing into the murder. He said the attorney was interrupting and in terfering with the proceedings. Particular significance was at tached to Dr. Gerber's testimony because the murder weapon has never been found. Although the coroner would not disclose what kind of surgical instrument he believed the large blood mark showed, some prose cution sources said it resembled the head of a "sttlle," used to re move heavy plaster casts. Dr. Sheppard contends his wife was killed by a bushy-haired in truder while he was asleep on a downstairs couch in their home in suburban Bay Village. He said he was knocked unconscious twice in battling with the assailant.. Corrigan refused to discuss how he plans to attack the pillow testi mony, but another defense source gave an indication. He told report ers that an instrument, pressed against blood on a pillow, would invariably result in a lighter amount of blood under the outline. The mark on the murder pillow showed a fairly uniform amount of blood. Dr. Stephen Sheppard, the de fendant's brother, tola a reporter that to his knowledge, the defend ant did not own a "stille" cast cutter. Dr. Gerber said he examined 16 X-ray picures of Dr. Sheppard and found no sign of an injury. Dr. Stephen Sheppard claimed shortly after the slaying that the defend ant suffered a broken neck In fight ing the "Intruder." 1 The prosecution contends he re ceived only a black eye and that it doesn't know how he got that. The coroner fixed the time of death for Mrs. sheppard at be tween 3 and 4 a.m. Earlier, he testified Dr. Sheppard's wrist watch, found outside the home, had stopped at 4:15. Dr. Gerber said he discovered water Inside the watch's crystal. Dr. Sheppard said after being knocked out the second time he came to on the beach with the waves rolling around him.

Medford Hosts Oregon Farmers MEDFORD Wl The annual three-day meeting of the Oregon Farm Bureau Federation will open here Wednesday. Scheduled speakers include Ben Robinson, president of the Oregon bureau; George Wilson, president of the California bureau; and Jim Short, the state's new director of agriculture. They are the thyroid gland and the parathyroids, little glands which ride piggy-back on the thy roid. They are apparently the first case of successful transplanting ol these glands for this long a time. The dramatic case was described to the American College of Sur geons by Doctors Julius A. Sterl ing and Ralph Goldsmith, of Albert Einstein Medical Center, Philadel phia. The woman, now 31, had her own thyroid and parathyroids removed in 1941 because ber thyroid was too active.
