Otto Ker-ner, declining to talk with newsmen, left a federal prison Thursday seven months and nine days after he entered. "Gentelemen, I am going home because of a medical condition and I hope you will honor me in that degree and let me go to the hospital," Kerner said. Warden Lawrence Grossman said Kemer's condition had been diagnosed as a lesion in the right lung, "and in the opinion of our medical staff they won't know if it's malignant until he has surgery."

He was the first active federal judge in U. S.

Traffic toll in Kentucky is rising FRANKFORT (AP)-An-other 25 State Police crusers have been equipped with speed timing devites in a new attempt to reduce the slowly rising Kentucky traffic toll. Commissioner Truett Ricks said Thursday the total cruisers so equipped is 55 and all are patrolling high accident and violation areas. The latest tally shows 132 deaths on state highways this year compared with 119 in the corresponding period last year during the energy crisis when fatalities dropped to a 13 year low. Most of the cruisers are patrolling county roads, Ricks said, because that is where the largest percentage of fatalities is occurring. Last January three fourths of traffic deaths occurred in rural areas.

Ricks blamed the increase in the toll on larger supplies of gasoline and a tendency of motorists to ignore the 55-r-mile an hour speed limit. He said State Police traffic arrest and warning citations the first two months of this year are up almost 20 per cent over the last two months of The state Transportation Department said toll road traffic is almost back to normal before the energy crisis. 53 Stations In New Zealand Wellington New Zealand's Broadcasting Corp. operates 51 medium-wave stations and two short-wave transmitters. 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 mm i OPEN 5 A.M.
