6-Hour Cleveland Racial Riot Leaves One Dead Tfo Dirty Rtfottff, CLEVELAND, Ohio Gunfire punctuated rioting in a predominantly Negro neighbor' hood on Cleveland's East Side earty today, leaving a old woman dead and two men minor bullet wounds. made up mostly of teen-age boys hurled fire bombs smashed and looted stores. More than 300 policemen directed from a command post bus and aided by a helicopter BCI Planning One-Man Labs As Service Aid By STEPHEN II. MILLER LONDON, Ohio (AP)-Ohio'S top criminal investigation unit has decided it can't keep itself down on the farm any longer. The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation (BCI), which has operated from the state prison farm nearby for 45 years, plans to open a one-man laboratory at Kent State University this summer.

The new lab is the first of four the BCI hopes to set up in the four geographical quarters of Ohio in an effort to provide quicker service to local law enforcement agencies. "This new unit at KSU will cut down our response time," says Supt. Martin W. Mosely, a former FBI agent. "Now, operating only out of London, it sometimes takes us as much as two or three hours after we're called to arrive at the scene of a crime." If the Kent State lab is a liuccess, it will be enlarged and another field station will be opened at Bowling Green State University.

The BCI hopes eventually to set up another lab at Ohio University in Athens and fourth station somewhere in southwestern Ohio. The Kent State site was chosen because northeastern Ohio has a relatively high crime rate, Mosely said. Kent State, which offers several criminology courses, donated space for the laboratory. When it opens, the Kent State station will provide basic crjme laboratory services to local law enforcement agencies. The BCI says local officers will no longer have to go to London for analyses of plaster casts, bullets and other clues found in investigation of crimes.

The BCI was started in 1921 to keep a central fingerprint file for the state. The bureau's files have grown to include three million fingerprints and the BCI's functions have grown as well. In 1937, it added a criminal laboratory and a gun identification department. The BCI now has 52 staff members, and their services are available to local departments on request.

Classes are held in Eastport Avenue and Junior High Schools. were involved In the six-hour effort to bring the widely tered disturbance under control, three policemen were hit by bricks and rocks and treated at a nearby hospital for injuries that were not serious, Police and newsmen reported they were shot at by snipers in the Hough area. Police shot out stret lights in the vicinity of East 75th and Hough to keep from being tar' gets and ordered all occupants out of an apartment building there in a vain effort to find a sniper. At least eight fires broke out some started by fire and firemen trying to fight the flames were shot at and had to dodge bottles, fire bombs and rocks, police reported.

A gang of men cut a fire hose near 88th Street, where half a block of two-story brick and frame store buildings burned. Firemen were called off twice because of interference but returned to put out the flames. They were aided by a brief, early morning rain. The rain also helped police clear the streets. Killed by gunfire was Joyce Arnett, mother of three.

A witness said Mrs. Arnett had been ordered into a building as police sought to clear the 73rd Street lough intersection and was shot as she leaned out a second-floor window and screamed for her children. There had been sporadic gun- 'Ire in the area at the time, and 10 one was able to say where the bullet came from that killed Officials Deplore Chicago Problem CHICAGO (AP) National Guardsmen remained on duty today in Chicago's troubled West Side, where rioting ended last Friday with their arrival. And, as the area remained orderly in the wake of three days of violence last week, public figures spoke out. Vice President Hubert H.

Humphrey said he might revolt himself if he lived in a' ghetto. Evangelist Billy Graham said President Johnson knows who is responsible for Chicago disorders and should say who. And a congressman said there will be more destruction unless the "black power" philosophy is considered. A force of 1,400 troopers pa. trolled the 140-block Negro district Monday night and early today.

Monday 1,236 of the 4,200 troopers mobilized were sent home. They were mostly administrative and supply Mayor Richard J. Daley said a decision on when to release all guardsmen "is a matter of security for the police department and the the Guard to work out." The National Guard commandant said he was reviewing the situation every 12 hours. Mayor Daley told a news conference the city has launched a crash program to build permanent swimming pools in parks and playgrounds, and equip 500 fire hydrants with sprinklers. City crews had begun setting up semiportable pools, but Daley said these are "too Hazardous." Lack of such recreation facilities was a complaint of residents of the riot area.

Humphrey, addressing the National Association of Counties Conference in New Orleans Monday, said if he lived in a city ghetto with rats nibbling his children's toes he might "Wad a mighty good revolt." "It is time for government officials to recognize the National Guard is no answer to the problems of the slums," he said. "People will not live like animals. Nor should they live in some of the filthy rotten housing that make up urban ghettos."

The people, he said, should know. Graham said Chicago outbursts were organized by extremists teaching violence, some of whom are "no more interested in civil rights than the Ku Klux Klan. They are.

in terested in national disorder for sinister political objectives." In Washington, Rep. Adam Clayton Powell, said debate over the philosophy of "black power" had. not caused Negro outbreaks in Los Angeles and Chicago. But he told a news conference: The nation must meet demands of new Negro leaders favoring "black power" or it faces "an endless cycle of violence and destruction." Powell, a Negro, said black power is aimed at prompt admission of Negroes full participation in society and does not imply black nationalism or supremacy. He accused "merchants of destruction of trying to use the term to divide whites and blacks.

Strike Delays Road Work COLUMBUS, Ohio A carpenters strike has caused another delay in completion of Interstate 71 into downtown Cleveland, the weekly 1-71 conference was told Monday. Officials said the unauthorized strike halted construction on two bridges. Repairs on a double-deck bridge; damaged last month by shifting of piers, also have delayed completion. The superhighway still may be completed by the Oct. 31 target date, officials although it may only be two lanes near the problem bridge.

U.S. Divisions Building for Full Readiness By FRED S. HOFFMAN WASHINGTON (AP) All Army divisions in the United States have been relieved of a temporary training mission and are building back toward full combat 1 readiness, it was disclosed today, About four months ago, the Army divisions based in the United States normally considered the strategic reserve for emergency duty around the world were about half filled with recruits and other soldiers with less than four, months' training. According to latest figures, all the Army divisions in the continental United States are down to less than 30 per cent of trainees, with one special exception, and the last of this training will be completed in October. The Pentagon came under heavy criticism in late March after the Senate Preparedness subcommittee disclosed that the Army divisions in the United States had, in effect, been converted into, training divisions, thus lessening their ability to respond to possible emergencies.

At the time, Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara acknowledged the previously undisclosed change in mission for these divisions, but contended it was necessary. Asked about the status of the divisions now, the Army said: "All stateside divisions have been relieved of this (training) mission but some still have some trainees who are finishing their training." It said the last major import of trainees to any unit occurred in May and that "training will be completed in October." "Combat readiness of the divisions in the states is constantly improving," the Army said. The divisions were taken off training as of June 30. "The training centers now are carrying the load and the divisions are getting only men who have finished individual training," the Army said.

The expanding Army training center structure currently is producing about 45,800 soldiers a month, the Army said. the woman, police said; 'Wallate Kelly, 32, and Alton fiurks, both residents of the area, were shot, but aides at Mount Sinai Hospital said the wbunds Were not serious. Circumstances of the shootings were not known. A team of Associated Press and Cleveland Plain Dealer newsmen and photographers were fired on twice by a sniper affer they passed a police road bldck to get to the Hough-76th Intersection. Hough is an area of some 000 residents which has changed from a predominantly white neighborhood to predominantly Negro since the end of World War it White businessmen remaining in the area were the targets of the looting and vandalism.

The first violent Incident reported Monday night was at a tavern where patrons became irate because a sign was posted saying they would no longer be served free ice water. Ensuing disturbances brought additional policemen into the area, and Chief Richard Wagner came from home to take command at midnight. A Negro newsman said "I saw a gang of about 20 teen-age bdys looting everything from a drugstore at Lexington and 78th." No official estimates of damage were made, pending daylight inspection. More than 40 persons arrested. TRANSPLANTS APPEAR SUCCESS Young Canter Victim Cheered Mich.

(AP) Larry Rink of Centreville learned Monday; after, five times having cancerous tissue from other persons transplanted to him in experiments, that tests showed no evidence of cancer remaining in his 140-pound body. "We cannot say he is cured," said Dr. Ray Houghton, Rink's physician. "But if the disease had progressed normally, Rink would have been dead three months ago. "At this time there is no evidence of any cancer in Larry." A little more than a year ago, the 21-year-old patient's right leg was amputated because of bone cancer, Houghton read a letter to his slender, 6-foot-l patient, reporting that rays, laboratory tests and physical examinations at Roswell Park Memorial Institute in Buffalo, N.Y., showed no sjgns of cancer.

The institute declined comment. The tests were taken early this month on Rink's third trip in five months to Roswell Park, where doctors had exchanged tumors between Rink and other persons. Three persons involved in the transplant experiments died. Rink, jubilant, exclaimed: "I'm going to make it now, even If it'conies back I just know It. "Now I'll get my new leg and then I hope I can find a good job and take care of my wife and baby." Rink's wife, Jeannie, 20, wholglands expects their first child in September, is "real happy, she nearly bawled" when tests showed the disease was gone, Rink said.

Houghton cautioned that "you don't call a cancer patient cured until they go five to ten years without any evidence. It takes just a few cells to lie dormant and pop up again." He said present tests cannot find mi croscopic cancer." The theory behind the cancer transplants is based on the fact that the body fights foreign tissue. In attacking transplanted cancer cells, it was hoped, the body would simultaneously produce antibodies to attack its own cancer. Rink said his cancer, osteo- genie sarcoma, differed from that of the persons with whom he shared transplants because it was located in his lymph rather than other sec- lions of'the body. Houghton asked Rink to try the experimental transplants after reading about Robert Allen, 29, of Tucson who was seeking someone to swap cancers in hope of conquering his disease.

Alien died, as did Thomas E. Welker, 21, of Conrad, the first two persons with whom Rink exchanged cancer tissues, A third man involved in the ex. periments at Roswell Park; Harry T. Griffith, 63, of Flourtown, also died. Rink has undergone the treat; ment since then with two ufa Identified persons.

He said they are alive, but reports of thett conditions were not available, He said he felt that a curl was "always a possibility." "I just don't worry about it. my times comes, I'm just going to go."
