DIAL AL 2-2767 I Police Of Chicago Admit 2 Of 976 Slayings Solved WASHINGTON (AP) Chicago police officials acknowledged Friday that professional killers have slaughtered 976 persons in their area since 1919, and only two of the murders have been solved to the point of convicting the killers in court. They conceded this was a sorry record, but blamed past corruption, police inefficiency, the courts, public indifference and other factors for these and other failures in the war on organized crime.

Police O. W. Wilson set the keynote. He pictured Chicago gangland as part of a nationwide crime syndicate. Both state and federal, laws, giving he police said, the fall weapons far needed to smash the outfit.

Testifying in the Senate Investigations subcommittee's new crime probe, Chicagoans presented charts listing the big shots of the Chicago mobs. They described them as living plush lives in ritzy homes, their operations masked by false fronts of respectability that police can't pierce without the help of tough new laws, including authority to tap telephone lines. Wilson, as the leadoff man the Chicago contingent, told the senators: "Since 1919 there have been 976 gangland-type killings in the Chicago area--an average of 23 per year. Only two have been cleared by the arrest and conviction of the "In short," said, "gangland executioners enjoy odds of 500 against being caught convicted." "That shocking," exclaimed Sen. John L.

McClellan, chairman of the subcommittee. He said he hoped it would arouse a public awareness that "this sort of thing is endangering society." Wilson and Capt. James. J. Duffy, director, of the Chicago police Intelligence Division, placed in evidence a chart captioned "'Chicago-Italian Organization, Over-all Chicago Area" which listed 19 men as "bosses and lieutenants of the mob." The men listed are well known to the police, the officer said, and their names are familiar to newspaper across the country.

They included such Sam (Mooney) Giancana, the purported real boss of the outfit, and Tony Accardo who was pictured as having yielded the top spot to Giancana. Ratings In Sweepstakes To Succeed Macmillan BLACKPOOL, England (AP)These are the popular ratings at the Conservative party's annual meeting here in the sweepstakes to succeed Prime Minister Harold Macmillan: Richard A.

Writing in the British medical journal, the Lancet, Drs. Margaret Kerr and Gavin C. Arnell said: "What we are saying is common sense. Actually, it would not hurt a baby if it never had a bath. "A wash of the necessary parts is quite sufficient, without removing any clothes." Dr.

C. (AP)-Police arrested two pupils Friday in connection with the written bomb hoax that caused classes to be dismissed at Cheraw's six public schools. The names of the teenagers were withheld by police. Chief P. C.

McLaurin said he believed the boys wrote the threatening letter to Superintendent of Schools W. A. Pearson as a prank with no thought of the consequences of the act. The youths are free under $1,000 bond each and will be arraigned Nov. 11.

The exact contents of the letter were not released, but police said the letter mentioned the bombing of the Negro church which killed four girls in Birmingham and promised a similar occurrence at a Cheraw school. 'The letter was signed, "'The Revengers." Police questioned several youths about the letter.

Chief McLaurin said the two youths were arrested after they had been questioned a second time. He said they both came from "good families."

Bohanan, 50, whose last address was a local veterans hospital, sat with one leg over the ledge. Acting Fire Capt. Hans Wolf, 35, edged as close as he dared and turned on all his powers of persuasion. A reporter heard the exchange. Bohanan: "I see those fire engines down there.

(AP) Two white teen-agers were indicted for first degree murder Friday the pistol death of a Negro youth during racial disorders after the bombing of a Negro church. Michael Lee Farley and Larry Joe Sims, both 16, have been free on $10,000 bonds. Bond was continued in the same amount by the Jefferson County grand jury that indicted them. The youths were charged in the shooting of Virgil Ware, 13, during disorders that followed the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church Sept. 15.

Four Negro girls died in the blast. The grand jury declined to indict Birmingham policeman Jack Parker in the fatal shooting of a Negro, 16, during the disorders. The Negro, John Robinson, allegedly was throwing rocks at a police cruiser. Police said they fired into the air when Robinson would not stop. Coroner J.

Also some testimony shows Parker fired while performing his duties as a patrolman for the City of Birmingham."
