Jury Holds Caril's Fate Defense Says Girl Friend Became 'Like Putty' During Killings LINCOLN, Nov. 20 Wl The murder case of Cam Ann Fugate, 15-year-old ex-sweetheart of killer Charles Starkweather, went to a jury at 10 a. m.

(C.S.T.) today. The jury's task: To decide whether Caril shares the guilt wmcn already has brought Starkweather-a death penalty. The girl is charged on two counts one with first degree murder in the death of Bennet, Neb. schoolboy Robert Jensen and second with murder in the perpetration of a robbery of Jensen. Judge Harry Spencer told jurors they may find Caril guilty of either first or second degree murder or innocent on count one.

On count two the verdict must be either guilty of first degree or innocent. Second degree murder carries a penalty of 10 years to life im prisonment. Caril is charged with aiding ana aDetting starkweather, 19 in one of his 11 admitted kill ings. County Atty. Elmer Scheele asked a first degree conviction but made no recommendation on a penalty.

Nebraska law prescribes either ate. imprisonment or death in the electric chair for first desree murder. The jury sets the pen alty. "Even a 15-year-old teen-ager must be made to realize that you can't go on an eight-day murder spree without getting caught and without paying the price," bcneeie told jurors. But Defense Lawyer John A.

McArthur contended the state seeks to convict "this little girl" on the unreliable testimony of a maniac. Starkweather was a principal witness against the girl he ro manced for a year and a half.

Improve; Government Secrecy Rapped SAN DIEGO, Nov. 0 Delegates attending the 49th national convention of Sigma Delta Chi, professional fraternity, opening today, predict an improvement in the nation's economy next year and better days for journalism 10 from now. Four delegates were questioned during an interview on subjects ranging from the recent November elections to secrecy in government.

They generally agreed that local conditions and good organization won for the Democrats on Nov. 4. They also generally predicted that the nation's economy would continue to improve. Making the predictions were: George W. Healy, editor of the New Orleans Times-Picayune; Robert W.

Richards, chief of the San Diego Union's Washington bureau; Neal VanSooy, editor and publisher of the Carson City, Appeal; and William Ewing, managing editor of the Honolulu Star-Bulletin. Another delegate, V. M. Newton, managing editor of the Tampa, Tribune, said federal bureaucrats keep secrets from congress as well as from the American people who foot the bills. "We've spent 80 billion dol Iars on foreign aid, for instance, and there never has been a report on where it went," New ton said.

"Public records don't show whether this money was spent wisely, wasted or stolen." Newton said government se crecy is a bipartisan matter. Both parties have been guilty of keeping public business secret by marking it he said. More than 400 delegates representing newspaper, radio and television journalists are attend ing the three-day convention Robert J. Cavagnaro of San Francisco, general executive of the Associated Press and Sigma Delta Chi national president, will preside at the sessions. 9 Concluded from Page One cakes wait for parties that never will be Joseph Krawczak, wheelsman on the Bradley, mailed his wife a gift from before the Bradley left on its last trip.

Two of Paul's brothers, John and William, have died of heart attacks. Executives of the Bradley Transportation company worked around the clock to help identify the victims as they were brought into Charlevoix. Identification was not complicated in most instances since "we knew most of the men personally," according to the office manager, Norman Hess. TRAGEDIES RECALLED Some of those who wait today remember other times when the anger of the big lakes turned against the men who work on the boats. They remember 1940 when 57 lost their lives when three ships, the Noyadock, Davock and Anna C.

Minch, went down. And some remember' 1913 when 254 died aboard 18 ships in a monstrous hurricane. This is the first time disaster has struck Rogers City. Nearly everybody around has knows someone who has worked on the boats. You hear it everywhere this is a seafaring community where life goes on in the home as the man of the house sails away most of seven months of every year on huge, gaunt limestone carriers.

And today while some may say "I hope my man will give up the boats" you know that as long as there are carriers on the Great Lakes there will be fathers, husbands and sons sailing on them.

Cotes has asked city rezon-ing to construct an elaborate hotel. The landscaping would serve as a green buffer, he said, between the hotel and the nearby residential area. (Story on Page One).

Hotel Concluded from Page wne property under consideration by the township board is also pro posed for annexation to East Lansing. Residents of the Touraine area had been informed before hand of the two issues and had divided forces to oppose each at both meetings. The Touraine subdivision is in East Lansing, but near the west city limits, between Saginaw rd. and Grand River ave. In outlining the advantages of the proposed hotel, Mr.

Cotes said it was a "logical use of the property" and showed illustrations of. extensive landscaping, which he said would provide a a green buffer to the neighbor hood. He asked rezoning of part of Lot 31 and all of Lots 32-38, which lie in the Touraine subdi vision, between the highways, and also between Coolidge rd. and Cowley ave. Mr.

Cotes said the hotel would be a credit to the neigh borhood and would provide a Hiew source of city revenue. He read a letter from President John A. Hannah of Michigan State university which cited ad vantages of a hotel in East Laan-sing and noted that it would of fer opportunities for M. S. U.

students in hotel administration for training and employment. OPERATES 29 HOTELS The Pick chain operates 29 hotels in Flint, Saginaw, and Detroit in Michigan, and including the Congress hotel in Chirago. J. Edgar Moss, Chicago, a Pick vice president, told how M. S.

U. hotel specialists had been consulted in the planning and design of the building. He reported a survey which cited the need for such a building in East Lansing and described it as a qual ity highway hotel. Opposition was stated in a let ter and from the floor, when a number of residents said the ho tel would endanger adjacent property and start a creeping paralysis and decadence. Two of the more than 50 residents, how ever, spoke favorably of the pro posed hotel.

Mr. Cotes pointed out that across Coolidge rd. from the proposed hotel was a billboard, a commercial dry cleaners and a service station, which he said would be screened by plantings. He had asked the planning Concluded from Page One wife marked their golden anni versary in 1954. Irt 1918, Dr.

Seconds later, a seven-car passenger train plowed into the plane. But no one was seriously injured in the fiery collision. The train sent the jet cartwheeling through the air. The plane came to rest against a lounge car containing 30 passengers. Spewing jet fuel exploded in flames.

The locomotive and four cars were derailed. Three sections of track were torn up. The plane's pilot, who suffered only bruises, was the most ser iously hurt. Hero of the near-disaster was Pat Schamber, brakeman on the Santa Fe's San Diegan, bound to San Diego from Los Angeles with 130 passengers and crew. He dragged the stunned pilot, Marine 2nd Lt.

Phillip M. Schmidt, 23, away from the wreckage. When they were about 50 feet away the F4D Skyray burst into flames. Schmidt, practicing a power-off landing, at the El Toro marine corps air station, overshot a steel cable across the runway on which the plane was to hook. The jet bounced over an 8-foot fence, streaked across a bean- field, sheared off- a power pole and slammed onto the railroad tracks.

The train was approaching at 75 miles an hour. "I saw nothing but a cloud of dust on the tracks about 250 feet ahead of me," said Engineer William Ryder, 63. "I put on the emergency brake. Two or three seconds later came the impact. It took another 125 yards to bring the train to a halt." KITCHENS UP TO OFF GRAND OPENING OPEN 9 to 9 Weekdays Noon to 6 Sundays KITCHEN SPECIALISTS.

He had been in jail for more than five months awaiting trial. Maximum sentence Kozlosky could receive under the manslaughter conviction is 15 years in prison. The extended trial was marked by frequent clashes between Pros. Jack W. Warren and defense counsel Francis Wery over many details of evidence and the type of questions asked of witnesses.

This was continued right through the final arguments Tuesday when Wery frequently objected to Warren's summation of the case to the jury. Another wrangle followed Wednesday morning over details of the final instructions which Judge Hughes was to present to the jury. Testimony in the trial showed generally that Kozlosky, Ingle and Murl Bursley had been together in a drinking session at Kozlosky's home on the afternoon of June 4. Both Kozlosky and Bursley indicated that a fight had taken place between the defendant and Ingle sometime during tha afternoon prior to the fatal stabbing. Kozlosky testified on the stand that he had no recollection of any fight in the back yard of Ingle's residence where the fatal stabbing took place.

Bursley, who also boarded at the residence at 1516 Illinois said on the witness stand that Kozlosky did come over into the back yard following the drinking session and that Kozlosky attacked Ingle with the knife.
