UP) Mrs. Helen Aileen Randle, thirty-one -year -old wife of a wealthy Washington and Annapolis sportsman, was under conviction today for the fatal shooting of Allen Willey, seventeen, in a case which her attorney said was "redolent with passion." Mrs. Randle was found guilty last night by an all-male jury which deliberated for two hours and a quarter after hearing the attractive third wife of Ulmo S.

Randle, thirty-four, tearfully deny she had intentionally fired the shot which resulted in he death of the high school student. Chief Judge Ridgely P. Melvin of Anne Arundel county circuit court said he would pronounce sentence at 9:30 a. m. next Tuesday.

Under Maryland criminal code the penalty for manslaughter is a prison term of from two to ten years, or a fine not to exceed $500, or both. Mrs. Randle, who showed virtually no emotion during her two-day trial except for the period she spent on the witness stand, received the verdict calmly. She had broken down several times on the stand. State's Attorney Marvin I.

Anderson had asked for a murder verdict without specifically mentioning the death penalty. The jury, however, convicted on the lesser charge of manslaughter. During closing arguments, the defendant broke down while William Curran, of the defense staff, referred to epithets which the defense charged the Willey youth had applied to her before the shooting last January 30 in the Randle home at fashionable Bay Ridge. When she had been asked on the stand to tell specifically the names she contended Willey had called her, she sobbed, "I can't! I can't!" Curran told the jury that the case "is redolent with passion," and he charged that the story presented by the state's witnesses "doesn't hang together." The other defense attorney, George B. Woeflel, called the shooting accidental, and declared that Mrs.

Randle had "a right to protect her home, and not let a boy drive her out. Justification means you are justified in doing what you did, and that could mean self defense." Anderson, in asking a murder verdict, called the shooting "willful, deliberate, premeditated." Mrs. Randle testified young Willey had been insolent to her and "called me the vilest names." She said the shooting, which also sent her husband to a hospital with a leg wound, occurred when Randle attempted to take from her a small caliber rifle which she declared she obtained in an effort to frighten Willey from her home. their talents known. She and ethers are eager to organize a little theater unit on the base to provide entertainment for the soldiers.

Musical Comedy To be Presented A musical comedy, employing both military and civilian personnel, with original music and a Reno setting, is being planned by the public relations office. Production some time in July is probable. Visits Daughter' At Idaho Post Upon hearing from Idaho that her daughter, Eileen Cameron, had received minor injuries in an accident, Mrs. Edna Rivard of the central files office, visited her in Burley, Idaho.

New Commander Living in Reno Miss Josephine Monaghan, former employee of the United States district attorney's office in Reno, has been named secretary to Capt. Wendell E. Lenz, plans and training and operations officer of the base. Miss Monoghan's brother, Gerald, is well-known in Reno as the agent for the General Petroleum corporation. Although she makes her home in Reno now.

Catholic Mission Will be Held A Catholic mission will be conducted at the base chapel each night at 7:30 o'clock from May 23 to 30. The mission is under the direction of the Rev. Robert J.

Harrigan and the devotions and sermons will be given by different leaders each night. All Catholic men are invited. Rail, Equipment SAN FRANCISCO, May 21 UP) When peace comes, Henry J. Kaiser wants to begin building railroad equipment in his shipyards. 'Kaiser's engineers have been at work for months designing new streamlined passenger coaches, lightweight freight cars and diesel-powered locomotives.

The shipbuilder wants to have everything in readiness even to the signed contracts when the war ends. "I want to see construction started on that very day," Kaiser said yesterday in an interview in disclosing his plans. We haven't got time to waste." Kaiser said shipyards could quickly be converted to build railroad equipment. "They can turn out welded cars on a mass production basis with speed and economy," he declared. The shipbuilder expressed the opinion that most of the railroad cars now in service would be ready for the junk pile at the end of the war.

"The rest," he said, "should be turned over to lend-lease for use in the Orient and South America where they can help these countries build up their transportation system at low cost." Railroads now are the most antiquated part of the nation's transportation equipment and must be rebuilt and modernized as soon as possible, Kaiser declared. "But I'm more interested in this job because it will give immediate employment to hundreds of thousands perhaps millions of workers on the first day of peace. Our planning and investigating and studying must be completed long before and our contracts should be signed at once." Nobody knows yet what the new trains should look like, Kaiser said, but they should be built largely of aluminum and magnesium to insure lightness. Kaiser admitted the proposed light, fast trains would compete for cargo with the giant freight planes he plans to build. "That's just what I'd like to see," he said.

"That kind of competition would result in lower rates, better service, and consequently a need for more trains and more planes. The people couldn't help but benefit. That's been my belief all along the more production the more prosperity. Post-war retrenchment can only bring disaster." Kaiser believes his program "would hurt nobody and would give a great boost to all the railroad industries." He said negotiations already are under way with some of the nation's greatest railroads, including three of "the largest transcontinental lines that serve the west coast." "They are all extremely interested and their response has been very encouraging," he declared. Davies Delivers Message to Stalin Secret Note from President Roosevelt Taken to Kremlin by American Envoy some time only chaplain on the base.

Chaplain Gooding, who was born in Glasgow, Scotland, was commissioned a first lieutenant in the United States army on March 5 and attended chaplain's school at Harvard university, from which he graduated this month. Chaplain Gooding expects to make his home in Reno as soon as his wife can join him. She and their nine-months-old son, Robert, are still in the east awaiting priority for plane transportation. Chaplain Gooding's first sermon, to be preached Sunday, will be "Smashing the Impossible." He is assigned to the 381st base headquarters squadron. Automotive Advisor Arrives at Base, Ben R.

Wiggins, civilian automotive advisor, formerly employed by the war department at the Sacramento, air depot, recently arrived at the Reno army air base to take up similar duties here. As automotive advisor, it is his function to instruct both commissioned and enlisted personnel of the base in the care and maintenance of all automotive equipment. He has been employed by the war department since September, 1942. Prior to that, he was employed by the Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing company, makers of automobiles, tanks and tractors. He was a sales and service manager for that company.

Mr. Wiggins will take up residence in Reno and expects to be joined by his wife soon. Miss Sullivan Returns to Office Lucille Sullivan, who is employed as an assistant clerk and typist in the civilian personnel office, has returned to her duties after being confined to her home for a week with influenza.

"The people who defended this city were able to check the Germans," Davies said in his Stalingrad address.

"The peoples of the Soviet Union, the United States of America and Great Britain, under the guidance of their leaders will be able to defeat Hitler. Glory to the Soviet soldiers!" Davies, who reached Moscow yesterday for his first visit since he left five years ago after completing his period as ambassador, was given considerable space in the Soviet press. A statement that the special envoy gave to newspapers praising Russia's "wonderful resistance to the Huns" was prominently displayed. "My country entered this world war late," the statement said. "But I can assure you that in respect to preparation of human reserves and mechanized might, we at present are reaching high standards of our possibilities." Germany's defeat, Davies added, "is as evident as the fact that after night comes day." PURE ye MOSCOW, May 21 (Special Envoy Joseph E.

Davies conferred with Premier Stalin at the Kremlin last night and delivered President Roosevelt's secret message a letter that some quarters thought might contain an invitation to a personal meeting with other Allied leaders. Davies was presented to the Russian political and military chief by Admiral William H. Standley, the U. S. ambassador, and was accompanied to the meeting by Vyache-slav Molotov, Soviet commissar for foreign affairs, with whom he previously had conferred at length.

Tass, official Soviet news agency, told of the meeting in a brief statement early today, but gave no details of what had occurred. There was no immediate indication of Stalin's reaction to the president's message. (Some observers in London and Washington, however, were inclined to couple the mysterious missive with Prime Minister Churchill's statement in Washington Wednesday that he and President Roosevelt "earnestly hope that at no distant date we may be able to achieve what we have long sought namely, a meeting with Marshal Stalin and if possible with Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek." (President Roosevelt, on announcing Davies' mission in Washington May 7, said only he and his typist knew the nature of the letter, but that Davies presumably would become acquainted with its contents 'lit WW Use Schilling pure Vanilla for delicate, enticing flavor never harsh or strong.
