Stviitton K. Hicks, a state highway commission engineer, explained thai county highway departments thus have an important place in the civil defense plan for Wisconsin and must continue preparations for possible participation in such work.

Reestablishment of surface transportation is necessary to permit medical, fire fighting and other services to function. Tlcnty of Equipment. As an example of the power which a mobile battalion could be expected to produce, Hicks said that in the first battalion area, comprised of seven counties with Madison as the headquarters, it has been determined that the following equipment could be provided: Eleven shovels and cranes, some truck mounted: 50 trucks, 10 bull- seven front-end loaders. 20 motor graders. 14 lighting plants 'portable' and other miscellaneous equipment such as compressors, plows? welders, service trucks and trailers.

In the first battalion area each county has completed its roster of men and assembly points have been designated. So far, all efforts have been concentrated on plans for assistance in the Milwaukee area. Highway routings and control centers have been designated. In the Milwaukee and Fox river valley areas volunteer committees have been formed and work been started on organization of reserve mobile battalions. Work probably will be started next in the Wisconsin Rapids and Eau Claire or La Crosse areas.

Personnel from state highway department division offices will contact the counties in the various areas to help in forming o.iuipmenl units, Hicks added. The response and cooperation received from county commissioners and committees has been 100 per cent, he concluded. Machinery Rentals.

Mich. Julius Dalcanale, 49, of Rhinelander, admitted that on the afternoon of March 3, 1951, on a Caspian street, he fatally wounded Louis Zozo, 59, of Caspian, with a bullet from a' .22 calibre revolver, must spend from 15 to 30 years in the branch prison at Marquette for the crime. Dalcanale was fouhd guilty of second degree murder by Judge Glenn W. Jackson in circuit cotirt.

Judge Jackson pronounced sentence shortly after hearing brief testimony, based chiefly on Dalcanale's mental condition. His attorney, Ernest Bi'Own, of Iron Mountain, interrogated witnesses on the premise that Dalcanale was not entirely mentally competent, and th court, in reducing the charge to second- degree, agreed with him. After Judge Jackson announced his decision of second-degree murder, the cotirt asked Dalcanale if he had any statement to make before sentence was pronounced. Dalcanale replied that 2ozo was the "destruction of all souls." Dalcanale has a "one-track mind," his sister, Mrs. Tillie Per- U7.zf, also of Caspian, testified at his hearing.

Mrs. Peruzzi explained, that her brother, who was sickly when he was a small boy, did not have much education and that his mentality was not one of normal person. She testified that he had a speech impediment since he was a child and that he developed a which followed him into manhood. He made very few preferring to be alone and did not do any reading, she said. Dalcanale went to school only to the fourth or fifth grade, she testified.

Moved to Rhinelander. Mrs. Peruzzi told the court how her brother came to Caspian visit her and other members of the family a few days before the shooting. She said that Dalcanale inquired about Zozo, against whom he held a grudge for about five years because of a bocce bnll game at the Blazina courts. She testified that he would never mention Zozo by name, but referred to him as "that guy." Mrs.

Peruzzi said further on the stand that her brother was a hard worker. He lived with his parents until they died and then went-to live, with her and her family. She related how her. brother, -in 1945, quit his job at the mine to go to Rhinelander to work he "wouldn't see that guy," meaning Zozo. AJESTlC TONIGHT I SATURDAY THEATER SCHOOL for CRIME!

Undersheriff Robert Gaber reported that he was called to the Country Club where he told the boys not to block the way of golfers wishing to use the course. The dispute is said to be based upon the manner in which the caddies report for duty. They have been asked to report at 8 a. then draw 'lots a.s to who goes out first with the golfers. The caddies, however, are said to want to go on the course in the order in which they report to the club.
