Dismissal Motion Denied
in Murder Trial Action
Palty Gibbons Martinez, 26-year-old
widow of Ihe man Leonard
Marvin Lugo is charged with kill
ing, said her friendship with Lugo
was casual and did not involve!
lovemaking.
Mrs. Martinez testified from the
circuit court witness stand that
she and Martinez had been sep
arated for Ihe fourth time
since December 1959. She said she
met Lugo last April.
Over objections lired back and
forth by both chief defense coun
sel Joseph O. Stearns and District
Attorney Arthur Bcddoe, Mrs. Mar
tinez said her late husband's rep
ulalion as a violent person was
bad and that she had heard of
threats he had made against Lugo.
She said he had made no such
threats in her presence.
Beyond presence of the jury, de

Fire Damages
Living Room
Fire damaged the living room of
a home occupied by Miles Cain at
4517 Bisbee Street Sunday after
noon, suburban firemen said.
They said Ihe Cain fireplace was
choked with wood. Fire seared a
wall and damaged the remainder
of the room with smoke.
sunuroan uremen also were
called to the residences of Charles
Kenyon, 4419 Bristol Avenue, at
10:26 a.m. and the home of Esther
Newell, 2602 Kane Street, at 9:44
a.m. Saturday. Both were chimney
fires and neither caused damage.
Cily firemen made a run to 606
South Sixth Street Sunday where a
car was reported afire. They said
the car apparently had overheated
and appeared to be burning.
late husband had carried. She pre
viously had said he carried a pock
elknife. Mrs. Martinez, however, was not
permitted to answer a question put
by the defense: "Were there any
improprieties between yourself and
th" defendant?"
The trial of Lugo, a 21-year-old
ex-convict accused of killing Jo
seph Owen Martinez II, 26, by fir
ing six shots into his body Au
gust 31, today entered its second
week before Circuit Judge David
R. Vandenberg and a well-filled
courtroom.
Mrs. Martinez was the second
witness to appear today, and the
fourth called by the defense.
Today's session opened with con
linuing cross-examination of Lugo
by Beddoe. It held more moments
of tension between the district at
torney and Stearns, a Portland at
torney.
Stearns moved for a mistrial aft
er Beddoe asked Lugo, "When you
shot him (Martinez) in the back
four times, he was trying to run
away from you, wasn't he?"
Stearns jumped from his chair to
make his motion.
He said his motion for mistrial
"was predicated upon conduct of
the district attorney throughout the
cross-examination, and particular
ly now. The district attorney has
assumed toward the defendant an
attitude calculated upon open hos
tility. The attitude is overbearing,
loud, sarcastic ... all to such a
degree to tend to make the defen
dant odious in the eyes of the jury
and deprive the defendant of a
fair and impartial trial under law
which our constitution guarantees."
At the conclusion of S t e a r n s
speech, the judge answered im
mediately, "The motion is denied
Stearns repeated the motion a
few minutes later, and Ihe judge
denied it again.
Lugo's testimony under cross-ex
amination developed that he had
served a term in the state peni
tentiary for assault with a danger
ous weapon. He was sentenced to
five years on January 10, 1956
and was paroled last April 9.
He now faces a first degree mur
der charge. The trial possibly
could reach the stage of final ar
guments late today.

Crash Kills 4
On Willamette
EUGENE W At least four
persons were killed instantly Mon
day morning in a grinding head
on collision between a car and a
semi-truck on slippery, snow-covered
Highway 58 about two miles
above McCredie Springs, some 49
miles southeast of here.
State police in Eugene said offi
cers radioed from the scene that
the dead included two men and
two women, whose bodies were
still wedged in the mangled wreck

that the wreckage contained yet an
other body which rescuers could
not see, police said.
The large truck smashed over
the au(o and the wreckage was
wedged underneath. A heavy duty
wrecker was dispatched from Eu
gene to move the truck from atop
the crumpled auto.
The truck, which came to rest
sideways in the road, blocked traf
fic on the mountain highway. State
police reported about an hour after
the collision that autos and other
vehicles were stacked up for more
Inan a mile.
Ol fit-ors said he admitted having
hit a car owned by Leon Woollcy

Board Clarifies
Survey Contract
The Hospital Survey Board of
Governors received confirmation
today that a clause in Stanford Re
search Institute's proposal for a
hospital survey was merely a technicality.
me clause, said SKI s assis
tant director of economic research,
Liianes L. Hamman, was "mere
ly to prevent misuse of Stanford
Research Institute's name."
This the board of governors had
assumed, but it wished to make
its agreement for a four-month
survey, to cost $8,750, entirely
clear.
A condition includes, release of
the full report to the public, with
wnich Hamman said "we are ful
ly in accord."
R. Frank Tucker, chamber of
commerce manager, said the pro
posal will be reviewed thoroughly
this week, and a letter of trans
mittal confirming action should be
in the mail soon.
