(UP) Pretty Janett Christman, who was raped and strangled by a sex fiend, was buried Tuesday her 14th birthday in a shroud bought with money she earned as a baby sitter. It was as a baby sitter that the young high school freshman met her violent death late Saturday night.

Mr. and Mrs. Ed Romach, who had hired Janett to sit with their three-year-old son while they played bridge with another family, found her battered body on their return early Sunday morning. Their child was not harmed. Janet, a large girl for her age, apparently fought viciously with her assailant but was struck with a heavy instrument and garroted with an electric cord her killer ripped from the wall of a utility room.

Police Chief E. M. Pond said the Columbia City Council had called a special meeting Tuesday to add five more men and an additional patrol car to his force. A reward of more than $1,000 for capture of the sex fiend was collected Monday by members of the Columbia Chamber of Commerce and the amount was expected to reach $2,000 Tuesday.

There is no connection between subterranean water and the Cana- idian river. The subterranean level is 400 feet below the level of subterranean water deposited in past I geological ages. i .1.

That was in 1944 when he ran a good second to Senator Alexander Wiley in a bid for the Republican nomination for t'S Senator. Then in 1946. he turned in a victory that was a surprise to nearly everybody but McCarthy.

He called the shot in taking the Republican senatorial nomination in a race with the veteran Robert M. LaKollette Jr. And he kept right on to take the measure of Democrat Howard J. MacMurray in the general election. The voters apparently paid as little attention as McCarthy to a hullabaloo over his hanging on to the circuit judgeship while." trying for the Senate.

Right after the 1944 primary Fred Ieli Hettengell asked the State Supreme Court to disqualify McCarthy and declare LaFollette the candidate, on grounds the state Constitution bars circuit and Supreme Court judges from running for anything but judicial offices.
