Jury Sentences Jack Kirschke To Gas Chamber LOS ANGELES (AP) The jury that convicted former deputy Dist, Atty, Jack Kirschke of murdering his wite and a man in her Vedroom has sentenced him to the California gas chamber as he dared it to. The jurors deliberated ahout four hours before announcing their verdict Wednesday. The lall, lean Kirschke stood solemnly, unflinching, when lie heard it. The day before, arguing his own case, the 46-year-old formet prosecutor had said: "I prefer death to spending the rest of my life in prison." After the jurors affirmed their decision individually, Kirschke bowed to then slightly and sat down.

Then he said he will seek a new trial. In the courtroom was Albert C.S, Ramsey, the lawyer Kirschke dropped from his case when he won permission Monday to represent himself, In the penally phase of the trial. To newsmen Ramsey explained the reasoning that may have led Kirschke to ask for the death penalty. Kirschke knows that the State Supreme Court automatically and promptly revlews all death sentences and he has said he beloves the court looks more closely at death penally cases than at those involving Ille imprisonment. Al the end of a 13-week trial Kirschke had sald he was confident the jury would acquit him.

But on Dec. 19 it said that Kirschke shot his dress designer wife Elaine, 43, and Orville Drankhan, 41, last April in W. the Kirschke's Long Beach apariment.

STOCKHOLM (AP) The mother of imprisoned Yugoslav writer Mihajlo Mihajlov lias askedthe Nordic Writers' Union. to try to help her son. She said he carol stand the hard prison labor and she is worried about his health, Mihajlov started a three-year prison term last May for writings critical of Yugoslavia's Communist regime and staged a hunger strike in December to protest prison conditions. in the months it has been away from ABC, Or maybe somebody just picked the wrong episode of the suave, scphisticaled Britmade series for ils premiere show as a mllseason replacement. The opening program Wednesday night was strictly kid stuff, flocillight that reduced a ousine to the size of a toy model, and a buman being to the statureofa toothpick, Mr.

Steed was accidentally cul down to a miniman when the bad guys were stealing 1 prototype ol a revolutionary lank by shripking it and carrying it off in an overcoat pockel. But Mr. Steed's plight was Lucky, because lie was able to come to the rescue of his colleague, Mrs. Peel, when that allletic lady had been trussed like a capon by the villains. He managed it, iccidentally, with a letter opener, which seemed the size of a sleet girder in his tiny condition, and cut her bonds.

And as soon as the magic beam restored him to normal size, Mrs. Peel was shrunk, and receivedher lurn to rescue him. Finally, they shrunk the heavies and caught them in Mr. Steed's derby, This isthe sort of science ficlion nonsense we might let go by on shows like "Voyage to (lue Bottom of the Sea," or Dream of Jeannie," but not on a droll and dry show like "'The Avengers." Of course, the series used to be broadcast in late evening spots on the ABC schedule, 0 time when the vast majority of viewers are presumed to be adults. Now it comes an at an early evening hour, and all three networks concede that the perlod from 7:30 to 9 belongs to the youngest members of the audience, But if "The Avengers" is converted into a sort of child's tantasy series, no mailer how smoothly or tongue-in-cheek il is handled, it is bound to lose that hard-core audience that made it a success as a replacement on earlier occasions.

The time of President Lyndon Johnson's slate of the union address next Wednesday night could not be more unfortunale from the standpoint of ABC. The network has scheduled a special two-hour production of "Laura," starring Lee Bouvier Radziwill, Jacqueline Kennedy's sister, in her television debut. ABC has done 111 enormous amount of publicity on the show and interest in il was believed to have run high, Appointment With Yesterday We suspect that any man close to the soil can get hit pretty hard by walking through an old deserted farm. It used to be that five husky sons would settle down and work the family homestead. Not now.

That was another day way of life. Today it takes machinery and machine sheds production efficiency and reinvestment to keep a place going on a profitable basis. Farming is a highly technical business. It's often a good idea to take a look back. But when you've concluded that walk in yesterday, you may want to see us about a farm building loan, Consider it an appointment with TODAY.
