THE NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN, Tueidiy. D.e. 29, 1970 23L bail idxttB KESSEBERRY, Mrs. Ethel Formerly of Nashville, No Remap Effect Seen in Christian Nunn in late January or early February. HARDIN SAID he regretted the general assembly's being put in a position of having to take action on redistricting.

"I have found that when you are forced into a situation, often you cannot do as good a job," he asserted. Although Hardin represents Hopkinsville and his colleague Bruce has the rural portion of Christian County in his district, Hardin noted the two lawmakers have generally agreed on legislative matters and said they have undertaken what they consider joint efforts to do what is best for the city and county as a whole.

PAUL, Minn Norbert Sternal, 58, who has had his body stretched 2Vi inches while doctors attempt to increase his lung capacity, is aided by his 2 Escape Brushy Prison In Boxes Marked 'Pork' By KEN LITCHFIELD TENNESSEAN Stat Correspondent EOPKINSVILLE Reapportionment of state legislative districts at a special session of the Kentucky General Assembly early next year Is unlikely to produce any changes in Christian County, local lawmakers said yesterday. The legislators said a slight decline in the county's population in the 1970 census does not appear to be enough to force redistricting here. A final census report listed the population at 56,224, a decline of 1.2 in the past decade, while Kentucky's population as a whole registered a growth of 5.9.

CHRISTIAN COUNTY'S population will be slightly under the average number to qualify for two House seats, but the county is part of a senatorial district that will have a population above average. To achieve equality in representation on the basis of the 1970 census, each of Kentucky's 100 House districts would have about 3 2 000 persons and each of the 38 Senate districts would contain approximately 8 4,00 0 residents. Rep. John O. Hardin III, Hopkinsville attorney who is serving his fourth term in the House, said Christian's population does not seem far enough out of line to result in any boundary changes.

The county has had two Representatives in the House since the 1963 reapportion- ment. Hardin represents the urban area, while James A. Bruce, farm leader, is the rural representative. THE NEW CENSUS puts the 3rd Senatorial District (Christian, Trigg and Calloway counties) population at 92,536. Each district would have 84,000 persons to be equal.

Sen. Pat McCuiston, Pembroke banker, has represented the district sine el968. All three local seats in the legislature will be up for election next year. The state must reshuffle many of the districts to provide equal representa-ion under the Supreme Court's one-man, one vote ruling. Hardin said he could see 'no substantial way" to achieve equal districts without splitting some counties to form new boundaries.

But the Democratic lawmaker said, "I don't know at this time whether 1 would vote to do it." HARDIN SAID he is expecting a great deal of opposition in the legislature to the county-splitting proposal. An estimated 30 to 40 counties may have to be split and joined to other counties to form acceptable districts, some state officials have said. The Hopkinsville representative said split-county districts would result in many legislators being unable to represent adequately their constituencies because of their diverse makeup. The local lawmakers said they are expecting numerous proposals for reapportionment to be offered in the special session which is expected to be called by Gov. Louie B.

AP Wirephote Clouds WINDS TODAY North, 5-10 mph. VISIBILITY-Good. Nation's Temperatures it Lonely Road Attack Scene By TOM GILLEM TENNESSEAN Staff Correspondent FRANKLIN, Tenn. A Chapel Hill woman was attacked on a lonely Williamson County road last night after stopping to clear away a roadblock of cedar bushes placed there by her assailant, police said. A bloodhound from the Tennessee State Prison in Nashville was combing a wooded area in the Dry Creek community, about one half mile from the Marshall County line, for the attacker's trail.

POLICE WERE questioning a suspect, but no charges had been placed early this morning. Archie Buttrey, chief deputy of the Williamson County Sheriff's Department, identi fied the woman as Mrs. Ehza-. beth Whittenburg, 46, of Rt. 1, Chapel Hill.

She was treated and released from Williamson County Hospital. Buttrey said the incident occurred about 5:45 p.m. while Mrs. Whittenburg was on her way to her rural home from hpr daughter's house in Chapel Hill. "SHE TOLD me she stopped her car and got out to move some brush 'somebody had pulled across the road," Buttrey said.

"When she got back to the car somebody grabbed her from behind and dragged her off the road to a field." The deputy quoted Mrs. Whittenburg as saying her as- sailant wore a burlap sack over his head, "leather work gloves," and rubber boots. "She said he kept telling her to 'hush and 'shut "Buttrey said. "Then when he crammed his fist in' her mouth, she clamped down on it with her teeth." AFTER GETTING bitten, Mrs. Wittenburg told the deputy, the man let her go and she fled to her car and escaped.

Offficers from Williamson and Marshall counties, the Tennessee Bureau of Criminal Identification and the Tennessee Highway Patrol responded to the call, in addition to two state prison guards who brought the dogs. TBI agent George Haynes said the assailant apparently was very familiar witih Mrs. Whittenburg's traveling habits. "SHE ALWAYS comes along this road (Edwards Groove Road) about that time every day," said Haynes. "She gnt off work early at the boot factory in Chapel Hill and stopped by her daughter's home before coming home.

"So she was on her normal schedule when she was attacked," he said. Frank Fleisman Services Today Graveside services for Frank Fleisman, 78. of 3828 West End will be at 11 a.m. this morning in the Temple Cemetery. Dr.

James Frederick Slagle, 34, of North Vernon, was sentenced in 1968 at Smith County for 1st degree murder, assault with intent to commit murder, armed robbery and kidnaping. Plutarcho Columbus Hill, 45, of Tulsa, was serving 10 years from Shelby County for robbery. WARDEN LEWIS Tollett said the pair escaped when fellow inmates acquired two heavy-duty cardboard boxes marked "125 pounds fresh pork" and placed the two men inside them while the group was working in the dining hall. The inmates then successfully passed through all prison security checkpoints and both boxes were loaded on a prison Girls Get It All Together In Memphis MEMPHIS (AP) They range in age from 19 to 22 and in height from 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-11 and are as varied as any 20 girls can be. But the 20 girls have two things in common all are pretty and all want to be the 1971 Maid of Cotton.

PRELIMINARIES of the three-day competition began last night with a get acqtiant-ed reception at the Sheraton-Peabody Hotel for the contestants. Today and tomorrow provide the busiest schedules for the girls. The winner will be inaugurated New Years Day at the Cotton Bowl football game by Gayle Thornton, the reigning Maid of Cotton. ACTIVITIES today include morning photo sessions, a Rotary Club luncheon, a television show and a dinner sponsored by the Memphis Press-Scimitar. Tomorrow the contestants will be interviewed individually by the judges during the day and then attend the contest finals during the evening.

Billed as one of the nation's more dignified beauty contests, the girls never appear in swimming suits. THE 20 GIRLS are all college students and hail from 16 cotton producing states. The winner will participate in a slow, globe-circling fashion and good-will mission starting in late February. She will appear in 25 cities in the United States and Canada and will also visit Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Rome and Paris. Prince To Visit Island SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) -Britain's Prince Philip will visit Chile's Easter Island in February while on a cruise aboard the royal yacht Britannia, the Foreign Ministry truck.

The truck was then dispatched to the prison honor farm near here. While the truck slowed for a curve in the road, Slagle and Hill leaped from the vehicle but were spotted by. the driver, the warden said. THEY WERE caught two hours later by prison officials using bloodhounds in woods about 12 miles west of Petros between State 27 and State 62. Both surrendered unarmed and without resistance, the warden said.

Slagle was sentenced Oct. 3, 1968 after he and a fellow defendant, Michael Phillips, 22, of Indianapolis, were found guilty in the bizarre shooting June 24, 1968, of John Harrison Bradley, 22, in the Big Lick community near Crossville. The kidnap victim was Mrs. Calvin Davis, also of the Big Lick community. Bradley was killed, according to court testimony, when he entered the Garland Blalock home, where he was working on the farm, to investigate a disturbance.

Four Blalock children testified both defendants shot Bradley nine times. Mrs. Davis, who was at the Blalock home, testified she was forced by the defendants to get into a car and to give instructions on directions while the defendants sought to escape. She also testified they threatened her with death and rape. ine pair was apprehended wnen tneir pistols failed to fire as police closed in on their fleeing car.
