so McKeon can "build for himself

McKeon, 31, said after he
learns', of Thouias' rctloii yester
day "I will try to be the very
best private in the Marine Corps."
Thomas ordered canc?ilation of
a bad conduct discharge and cut
other penalties ordered for Mc
Keon Aug. 3 after a court-martial
at their home near the Parris Is
land base.
In throwing nut the bad conduct
discharge, the most severe pnrt
of the sentence, Thomas said he
was giving McKeon the "opportun
ity to build for hims?lf a useful
and honorable career." The sec
retary added "I hope and believe
that he will avail himself dn this

In Shotgun Slaying Case
NEWCASTLE, Ind. 11 After

Five Million
Dollar Will
Lost On Subway
NEW YORK ijn A lawyer has
disclosed that he lost an heiress'
five-million-dollar will while rid
ing a commuter train to liis Wes
ton, Conn., home.
Attorney Norman W. Schur
asked Surrogate William It. Col
lins yesterday to accept a sworn
copy in lieu of the will. He said
he could remember all the details
of the original.
Schur said Mrs. Alice Astor
rieydcll Bouverie signed the will
last July 18. He tucked it in his
pocket and dashed for a New
llaven train.
The next day he learned Mrs.
Pleydcll-Bouverie had died of a
heart attack. He searched for the
will but couldn't find it.
Mrs. Pleydcll-Bouverie, daugh
tcr of John Jacob Astor. left her
$5,305,000 estate to her four chil
dren. They are willing to accept
Schur's copy.
Collins took Schur's pica under
advisement.
tody by Sheriff Bob Padgett at
the home of an uncle, Wilbur
Moistner, in Mount Summit, after
the uncle had telephoned the sher
iff saying the youth was ready to
give himself up.
Moistner, who had been hiding
in the woods and fields of eastern
Indiana since Sunday night, was
being held in the Henry County
jail.
The man was sought for ques
tioning in the shotgun death of
Thomas Scott, 17, at Indianapolis
Sunday.
Frances Mayas, 16, told Indian
apolis police she and her cousin,
Donna Games, 15, were with Scott
and Moistner at Frances' home
Sunday, while her parents were
away.
Frances said she and Scott went
out for a soft drink. When they
returned, she said. Donna was
nude and bound to a bed, and
Moistner rushed out of the room
with her father's 12-gauge shotgun.
Frances said Moistner hit Scott
with the butt of the gun and then
shot him once, killing the youth.
at Parris Island, S.C., April 8.
After reviewing the case. Thom
as said he was convinced McKeon
got a "fair trial in every respect.1'
But the Navy secretary wiped out
the bad conduct discharge, re
duced M c K e o n's ' confinement
from nine months to three, and set
aside a $270 fine, saying "for him
I believe that the real punishment
will always be the memory of Rib
bon Creek." where the six young
boots died.
Thomas said he agreed with the
seven-man court that McKeon, a
veteran of 11 years in the Marines,
had "failed to exercise reasonable
care for the safety" of the 74 men
in the platoon he led into the tidal
creek. McKeon was convicted of
negligent homicide and drinking
on duty.
The Navy secretary affirmed
McKeon's reduction in rank to
private, saying this would involve
a "much more substantial loss
than the fine
Although sentenced to three
months' confinement, McKeon will
have to serve only one month in
the Parris Island brig. He was
scheduled to start serving it today.
A Navy legal officer said the
two months McKeon has spent
In the status of arrest" will be
counted as part of the confine
ment period.
Since his court martial, McKeon
he feels "this sentence meets the
needs of the case.
McKeon, who hails from Wor
cester, Mass., said he was happy
Thomrs had revoked the bad con
duct discharge because "I'd hate
to have to carrv that around in
my hip pocket tor the rest of my
life."

Rare Coin Is
Mint's Mistake
PHILADELPHIA W - Put
enough silver for a quarter in the
U.S. Mint's SO-ccnt machine and
what have you got? One of the
rarest, and most valuable, coins
in the world, says coin dealer
George Creed.
Creed found the coin in a bag
of half-dollars he got from the
Philadelphia mint. It has 50-cent
piece markings, is smaller than a
half-dollar and thinner than a
dime. The mint offered the too-
little-silver-too-much-machine ex
planation. Creed said the market
value of the coin can be compared
with that of a unique British Gui-
na stamp issued in 1865 about
$50,000. He s not selling, though
