He said in reply to prison by phone just after the cy HOLLYWOOD George T. Davis, the attorney who went on television last week in an 11th-hour attempt to save child slayer Burton Abbott, will appear in another dramatic TV role this week. This time the San Francisco lawyer will play the role of himself on "Conflict," in a documentary of a case in which he successfully defended a man charged with murder. Last Friday, Davis succeeded temporarily in postponing Abbott's execution through a televised appeal to Gov.

Knight. The governor calledavis after watching the telecast and arranged a one-hour stay.

(UP) Mounting financial difficulties forced the closing last night of the multi-million-dollar New Frontier Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip, hotel officials reported.

(UP) A prominent jeweler and civic leader shot and killed his three daughters and his elderly mother before taking his own life yesterday, only hours before his wed ding. Herman Behn, 44, was found in his home, shot in the temple, ap parently with a revolver which lay nearby. His mother, Mrs. Minnie Behn, 70, and one of his daughters, Kay, 10, were found dead in a double bed. Behn's other daughters Linda, 14, and Shirley, 12 were dead in their single beds in another room.

i STRANGE PHONE CALL Behn's brother, William, also of West Frankfort, said he received a telephone call from his jeweler brother about 8:15 a.m. He told Sheriff Paul Collins and Asst. Po lice Chief Arthur Marks that his brother explained what he had done. "You know, Willie, I was to be married today, but now I won't," Behn quoted his brother. "I just killed mother and the three girls because I can't stand to leave them." The brother told authorities he thought he was being kidded and asked: "What do you plan to do?" "I intend to go with them," he quoted the jeweler as saying.

IN JOVIAL SPIRITS Authorities, members of the family and associates were at a loss to determine what Behn meant about leaving his mother and daughters. They said he had been in jovial spirits about his wedding. Although Behn who was divorced from his first wife was to have married Mrs. Meldetta Minton, 34, he was not planning to leave West Frankfort. Marks said Behn's brother called police as soon as he finished the phone conversation.

Behn, however, was dead when police arrived at his house, where all doors were locked and window blinds drawn. The Franklin County coroner's office said Behn apparently used a claw hammer to knock his mother and daughters unconscious before shooting them with the revolver. Their skulls were crushed by the blows.

Nadler, who already had won $88,000 in previous appearances on the CBS TV program "$64,000 Challenge," tied two contestants for $20,000 by answering questions on the Civil War and geography.

McQerian emphasized it was "union, officials and not the union" that evidence before his committee has "linked with" efforts to take over vice and gambling in Portland. "We are not trying to destroy the union, he told a news conference. THIRD WEEK REVIEWED Our only intention is exposing those misusing union funds and un ion official authority.

McClellan's statement followed a review in which he joined with committee counsel Robert Ken nedy in detailing what they con sidered the outstanding points of the third week of committee hearings, now in recess until Tuesday. They listed the week's top de velopments: "Mayor Terry Schrunk of Port-! land refused a lie detector test after having requested it, on the question of payoffs and bribes while sheriff" of Multnomah County. Schrunk declined to complete the test on grounds some of the questions asked were "loaded." RECORDS DESTROYED "The secretary treasurer of a joint council of eamsters, Reg Mikesell, admitted records for the period of time we are interested in have been destroyed, although those for 15 years before and the years since are intact "The ninth vice president of the Teamsters, James R. Hoffa, was arrested on charges of bribing a committee staff member." Hoffa, accused of promising to a lawyer for information about the committee's activities, said he will "fight this case until I am cleared."

"I'd prefer that it be called quiet sex," she said.

He continued in Hollywood with Ingrid Bergman, Joan Fontaine and Grace Kelly. "Hollywood is mistaken in thinking that sex is a matter of measurements. CAN 'GO EITHER WAY' Vera onetime "Miss Kansas," is equipped to go either way but prefers the Hitchcock way. In thej movie, she had to expose much because Betty Compton was a showgirl in prohibition era speakeasies. The black, white or grey clause in her loanout contracts, she explains thus: "It came about because designer' Edith Head discovered I looked best in those shades.

I don't look right in bright colors and I seem washed out in pastels, because my hair, skin and eyes are almost the same color." TODAY CONT.

Beck replied: "As a general rule I question whether it is good practice, but to all rules there are exceptions." He said that a justification for the loans was that "I gave hundreds and thousands of hours of extra time to" the Western Conference." Beck said all the transactions were covered by audits.

Come hither or arm's length? Center of this peculiar battle raging in Hollywood is comely Vera Miles, and the best approach to publicity for her. The dispute over the "hot" or "cold" sex buildup may well wind up in court.) By JAMES BACON HOLLYWOOD ID Vera Miles is the pawn in one of the most delectable controversies in recent Hollywood history. It's a controversy that already has passed the friendly stage and if the press agents have anything to say abijut it, it's bound to wind up in court. In brief, the battle over Miss Miles, shapely enough to have once been a finalist lor Miss America, is whether she shall have the hot or cold sex buildup, HITCHCOCK IX BATTLE Antagonists in this busty em- broglio are: Director Alfred Hitchcock, who has Miss Miles under personal contract. Hitch, who made stars out of such as Madeleine Carroll, Ingrid Bergman and Grace Kelly, favors the cool approach.

Producer Jack Rose and direc tor Mel Shavelson. They borrowed Vera to play the love interest opposite Bob Hope in "Beau James." Quite naturally, they are Interested in selling their picture in the most lucrative way. They believe that cheesecake sells more tickets than academy awards. Classic examples are the only two women to crack this year's top 10 boxoffice list Marilyn Monroe and Kim Novak. famous example is the experience with "Roman Holiday," much praised by criticS.

It was a prestige picture and Paramount sold it that way but the opening re turns at the boxoffice were disap pointing except in Berkeley, Calif. FAVORITE RETURN'S There an enterprising theater manager developed his own adver tising campaign. He took Aud rey Hepburn's face and superim posed it on a sexy cheesecake shot of Terry Moore's body. His box- office returns were fantastic. Hitchcock loaned Vera to Shavelson and Rose under the following conditions: She must only be photographed in white, black or grey.

She must not be posed for newspaper or magazine or cheesecake art. She must not be photographed with her husband and children. The makers of "Beau James" agreed to the provisions because they wanted Vera for the part more than any other actress and also they thought Hitch was only kidding. He claims he's not USE COLORED LIGHTS Shavelson and Rose are willing to forget about posing Vera with her husband, Gordon (Tarzan) Scott. They even got around, the white, black and grey restriction by throwing colored lights on the drab color scheme.

But the cheesecake ban is worth going to court for, they contend. "Here we have this wonderfully talented and beautifully endowed creature playing a sexy, exciting true-life role as Betty Compton, the showgirl who won Mayor Jimmy Walker of New York away from his wife and even made him resign as mayor," Shavelson declared. "And yet the conditions of Mr. Hitchcock's contract on the loan- out make it impossible for us to give, her-the 'hot' buildup she should have." ELEMENT OF MYSTERY Hitchcock says: "The idea that the more shown of a girl the sexier she is, is pure nonsense.
