Gunman Runs Amty Alter Theater Killing A 37-ycar-old man was shot and killed last night in the lobby of the Walker Theater, 607 Indiana Avenue, during a performance of a local talent show sponsored by the theater management.

Tolice said Robert Yowcll, 5023 East 30th Street, was shot twice in the chest and once in a knee about 9 p.m. when he chastised a man for spitting on the floor. Witnesses told police the man drew a gun and fired four times, fatally wounding Yowcll. The theater co-owners, Grant Russell and Iola Granger, said the talent show was by and for area residents as a neighborhood project to keep youth off the streets. The gunman was described as a Negro wearing a green shirt and green "hot pants." He fled on foot.

The cast performed despite the violence in the lobby. You lh ho Bcal Boy Sentenced A 19-year-old high school dropout who beat up a 14-year-old Crispus Attucks pupil because he wouldn't give him a dime yesterday was sent to the Indiana State Farm for 90 days. In addition to the term, Dennis L. Dubinion, 1000 block of West 31st Street, was fined $1 and costs after Judge B. William Keithley of Municipal Court, Room 9, found him guilty of disorderly conduct, trespassing and fleeing a police officer.

Dubinion was arrested Thursday after he accosted the younger boy in the halls of Crispus Attucks High School. 3 Rob, Beat Gas Station orker A Southside service station attendant was knocked unconscious during a robbery by three men early yesterday, police said.

Skaggs told police one man remained outside while the other two entered the station about 3:30 a.m.

One put a pistol against Skaggs' head and demanded money. When Skaggs said he had no money, he was struck on the head with a club or blackjack. The men took $140 cash in a bag in a rear room and Skaggs' wallet with $50. The attendant said he was struck again and knocked unconscious before the men fled.

REELECTED LAST year, he had served 12 years in the Senate. Republican Governor Deane C. Davis can name an interim successor but must call a special election to complete Prouty's third term, which runs until 1976. If he decides to give up his 10-year hold on the state's lone seat in the House, GOP Representative Robert T. Stafford would be favored as Prouty's successor.

Prouty is survived by his widow and three daughters. His first wife died in 1960 and he remarried in 1962. HE ENTERED politics in 1938 when he was elected mayor of Newport. Perhaps his greatest moment, however, came a year ago when he buried a former three-term Democratic governor, Philip H. Hoff, as he won re-election to a third term and helped all but scuttle the Democratic Party in Vermont.

He was re-elected mayor of Newport in 1941 and also entered the Vermont house the same year. He served as house speaker during his last term in the state legislature in 1947. Prouty won the first of four terms in the United States House of Representatives in 1950. He narrowly won the U.S. Senate in 1958.

PROUTY'S VOTES in support of the Nixon administration often ran contrary to the more liberal Aiken's votes. Prouty consistently voted against any congressional action which he thought might "tie the President's hands" in Southeast Asia. Louis E.
