Pcace Corps Murder Trial At Key Point MWANZA, Tanzania (UPI) Two key prosecution witnesses were to be called today in the murder trial of a U.S. Peace Corpsman accuscd of fatally beating his wife because he thought she planned to be unfaithful. The two witness, as yet unmanned, were expected to be villagers from Maswa, where the defendant, 24-year-old William Kinsey of Washington, N.C., and his wife Peverlv, 23, taught school. Kinsey is accused of beating Peverl.v, of Riverside.

to death with an iron bar and a rock on a hillside near Maswa last March 27. Kinsey claims she fell to her death from a high rock. If found guilty, he could be hanged. The contention that Kinsey killed his wife because he believed she planned to be unfaithful was steadily assailed Tuesday by defense counsel Byron Georgiadis. Georgiadis repeatedly demanded the withdrawal of the and charge that his wife of 18 months intended to be unfaith-1 ful.

He said the prosecution had no evidence backing up the allegation. The prosecution maintains i Kinsey noted his belief that his wife planned infidelity in his diary the day before she died. But Georgiadis got an important prosecution witness, arresting Police Inspector Martin Kifunta, to admit the allegedly incriminating diary notation coincided almost word for word with a passage in the novel in a Lone by Wright Morris. Georgiadis claimed Kinsey, an english literature teacher, was in the habit of writing literary quotes in his diary. He said Kifunta's investigation of the incident failed to uncover any evidence of extramarital affairs involving Peverlv.

In Kinsey's statement to police, read in court Tuesday, the Peace Corps volunteer told how he and his wife had gone on a picnic and she had fallen while climbing a high boulder. He said he tried to hold her down to prevent her from further injury while he summoned villagers who would not help. The statement said he left his wife in a shady spot, alive but while he i went for help. The statement did not explain how a piece of metal found at the scene, part of an improvised camera tripod, had become bloodied. The prosecution contends Kinsey carried the bar in the picnic basket and used it to bludgeon his wife.
