Court Orders New Fields Case Probe Continued from 1 Fields, Siegel said, was stepping out of his car, after fleeing for several blocks from a hitand-run collision, when the patrolman fired. Mr. Siegel said eyewitnesses related that Fields "had taken but a few steps from his car when Applebaum, without any effort apprehend Fields, shot him." In an appearaice before the grand jury, the patrolman, according to Mr. Siegel, "con1 ceded that he did not shoot in self defense that the only word he said to Fields was 'stop' without any warning that he would shoot." Field was unarmed, he said.

The prosecutor said he had told the jury that Fields could have been guilty, at most, of running away from an accident-a misdemeanor. Refers to Cop's Testimony Mr. Siegel said the patrolman had told the first grand jury that he "didn't mean to do it," that the shooting was an "accident or an involuntary action." The prosecutor cited several facts which, he said, "negated this explanation." Fields was shot in the back, and at the time of the shooting was in such a position in relation to the patrolman and the two cars involved that he was at no great distance away. Mr. Siegel said the patrolman's explanation was also refuted by his experience as a policeman and as a soldier overseas, accustomed to dealing with firearms.

He adduced as further evidence of Applebaum's familiarity with guns the citation he had received for "disarming a man with a rifle. He drew his gun but did not fire at that time." The prosecutor accused the original jury of "wrongfully exercising its independence to close its eyes to the evidence and the law."

Rather than sacrifice. the building, the trustees this week agreed to go along with Borough President Cashmore's plan, which involves conveyance of the Academy of Music to the city. In turn, the city would agree to: 1.

Lease the building to the Institute at a nominal rent for 99 years. 2. Make the repairs and improvements necessary for continued operation of the building. 3. Keep the building in repair and underwrite its maintenance.

4. Make the necessary repairs to the Brooklyn Museum which have already been agreed upon in talks between city officials and Institute trustees. This will take four years. Has Support of Moses The plan has the support of Park Commissioner Robert Moses and other city officials. If it goes through, it will be the second time the Academy has been saved for the people of Brooklyn.

In 1936, the continued operation of the building was assured by transfer to the Brooklyn Institute after intervention of some public-spirited citizens. Plans have been completed for a new Children's Museum which would cost $1,800,000 and preliminary plans have audito- also been drawn for a new rium. Both facilities would be located near the Brooklyn Museum and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, making an portant cultural center for the borough. During the present emergency, however, such construction cannot be undertaken. Accordlingly, the trustees have agreed to to take steps necessary obtain the immediate essential repairs on the Academy and the Brooklyn Museum in order to maintain the services of the Institute intact.

Over two and a half million people a year make use of its facilities. See Completion in 1952 It is expected that work on the Academy building will be completed during the Summer of 1952. Mr. Blum hailed the Borough President's suggestion as being of great benefit to the Brooklyn public. Rehabilitation of the Academy of Music and the Brooklyn Museum remains only the first step in the long-term plan to have a cultural center at Washington Ave.

and Eastern Parkway, taking in the central museum, Children's Museum, Botanic Garden and the proposed new auditorium. Blum declared that the trustees are convinced such a center "would be an outstanding feature of the borough and of the city and would serve a great public purpose." "However, they realize the demands on the city for construction of all kinds at this time," he added, "and are therefore willing to accept the program outlined and to postpone the plan which would accomplish the centralization of the Institute's activities."
