The abduction and murder of the girl was similar in some respects, to the assault-slaying Saturday of 9-year-oid Gloria Kowal-ewicz in Chicago, about 230 miles northwest of this Ohio Indiana border area. Chicago authorities contacted Paulding County Sheriff John Keeler to exchange infotmation, but they had no real evidence the two crimes were connected. Keeler said leaves in the area where the body of the Eagleson girl was found obscured any tire tracks. He said no attempt apparently had been made to hide the body, although it possibly would not have been found for some time.had not AvFrance and Nelson chanced along. Keeler's three-man force and the Paulding village police were augmented by Ohio highway patrolmen in the investigation.

It was the first murder of this type PAULDING, Ohio (UPI) Authorities, lacking clues and with only the sketchy description by a 4-year-old girl to go on, kept at their investigation today of Sunday night's rape-slaying of 14-year-old Nancy Eagleson. The victim was abducted as she and her sister, Sherrill, 4, walked home from a movie. "It was a man in a big car that got my sister." sobbed Sherrill. She said the man asked them if they wanted a ride first and, when they refused, grabbed Nancy. Sherrill ran to the nearby home of John Larson, a neighbor who often served as babysitter for the girls w'hile their parents were at work.

Larson called police and a search got underway. About five and a half hours later, at 2:30 a m. Monday, two raccoon hunters discovered the girl's body in a wooded area 100 feet off Paulding County Road 176. Joseph AvFrance. 38, and Kenneth W.

Nelson, 43, both of Paulding, thought at first it was a discarded halloween costume.

But Holt reminded the board that he wanted them to think the proposal over, adding "it's not dead, it's alive as you want it to be." Even less was said about the post-high school study President Charlton Myers of Marion said that "it is not an attemp to get power" as he put the matter aside tor members to bring up as they choose. The survey said that a study of other states showed expanded pub- i lie education should remain under) the state school board to best maintain local control and avoid the confusion of separate commission. It was recommended that the board help in setting up community colleges providing college credit courses, preparatory technical education and vocational programs and vocational and adult classes. The board, under the proposal would have authority to plan a statewide system of community colleges designed to fill the gap between high school and college. The board would also set minimum standards for such schools.

But the board, before it can proceed with any of these proposals, will need the necessary authorizing legislation from the General Assembly The last session of the legislature passed a bill for two-year technical schools but it was vetoed by Gov. Michael V. DiSalle due to lack of funds. The board approved 12 one-teacher schools for foundation aid in 1961, one less than last year. Holt said that some of them are "overflow units in churches and other places." Also approved were 33 two-teacher units as compared to 50 last year.

But the board turned down a switch of 11 pupils and 30 acres of land from Washington Township to the Toledo school system. Pupils Urge Use Of Popular Vote To Pick President If the seventh grade history students at West Lafayette school had their way, the electoral college would be discarded and future presidents of the United States would be elected by popular vote. Ninety history students at that school said they had studied and discussed the United States Constitution prior to the presidential election and came up with these recommendations: "As future voters, we sincerely petition our federal and state officials to cooperate by amending our constitution to provide for the election of the president of the United States by popular vote of the American people. "With great respect for the constitution, we feel that the 12th amendment should be renealed. Please make it possible for our- first vote in a presidential election to be a more democratic one." A copy of the recommendations have been sent to congressmen and other state and federal officials, according to Janet Pollock, class president.

Hs as Aircraft Accidents Kill Nine, Including Navy Commander MANILA (UPI) Separate crashes by a U.S. Navy plane and a Marine Corps helicopter that went to the rescue today killed nine persons, including the popular commander of the U.S. naval forces in the Philippines and his wife. The two craft plunged into the jungled slopes of the Mariveles Mountains near Manila several hours apart in perfect weather.

Naval officials were at a loss to expkin either of the crashes. Rear Adm. Arthur F. Spring; his wife; an accompanying officer and three crewmen died when their two-engine Albatross plunged into the mountain before dawn while returning to Cubi Point Naval Air Station from a dance at Nichols Air Base. After daybreak a Marine helicopter from the aircraft carrier Hornet, hovering over the Albatross crash site, suddenly plunged into the mountain itself carrying three of the five men aboard to their deaths.

Two men who had parachuted to the Albatross wreckage saw the Marine helicopter drop out of the sky. They radioed the casualty reports. A ground party was sent to the site to bring back the bodies. The jungle was too thick for helicopters to land. Spring had gained a reputation as one of the most popular American military commanders ever to come to the Philippines.
