Her husband talked to this man, and was told there another man up around the barn. Then, the other- man, identified as James Rhea, came running toward her husband, with a .22 rifle in his hands and pointed it at Morgan's chest, Morgan backed from the scene to the car, with Rhea keeping the gun levelled at him. The trouble grew out of trespassing and hunting groundhogs on Morgan's land. Commonwealth rests. James Rhea, the defendant, was the first witness called by the de, fense.

He testified he is 19 years i old and resides with his parents in Blackleg Valley. On the afternoon of July 30 he and a friend named Kilmore were in a field on the Morgan premises. They were hunting groundhogs. He knew the Morgan premises were posted against trespassing. Rhea heard a car coming and soon thereafter came down along the road to talk to Kilmore.

Rhea asked Morgan what the trouble was all about, and then he picked up his gun and started along the road toward his home. The witness denied he made any threats or pointed the gun at Morgan. Leo. Rhea, father of the defendant, testified he was standing alongside the road on July 30 when Morgan drove his car up along where Kilmore was standing in the field. Rhea testified Morgan declared to Kilmore he would kill anybody who came on his land to hunt groundhogs.

The son then came up to the road, carrying the gun in his hand and not pointed at any person. The witness testified he did not see Morgan in the field at any time. The time of the occurrence was fixed by the witness at about 3:30 to 4 o'clock. John Kilmore of Lewistown testified he was in Shirley Township on July 30, visiting at the Rhea home. About 4 to 4:30 he took a walk along the 'highway and stopped along a small creek.

Morgan came along the road-in his car and stopped. Morgan came down to where he was seated along the creek and Kilmore then walked up to the highway, Morgan then used profane language and threatened any pei-aon who hunted groundhogs on his prem- ises. The defendant then came up to the road carrying a gun, and tried to appease Morgan. The witness declared Rhea did not at any time point the gun at Morgan. Testimony closed.

Gets Sentence Kenneth Idomir of Mount Union was in court this forenoon for sentencing on a charge of operating a motor vehicle during the period his license was suspended. Idomir pleaded guilty to the charge at a session of court in July. Idomir's license in Pennsylvania was suspended some time after he was involved in a fatal accident at Orbisonia in May, 1-949. The young man went to Ohio and procured an Ohio operator's license. It was while using the Ohio license that Idomir was arrested by State Police of Huntingdon.

The young man has a fine war service record and is a student at Penn State. The court -then imposed sentence of costs of prosecution, a fine of $100 and imprisonment in the county jail for three months. The accounts of Prothbnotary Emma S. Steele were presented to the court for confirmation. The court confirmed the accounts nisi and if no objections are filed within four days the accounts will be confirmed absolutely.

Twelve Amish fathers and one Amish mother were arrested last night in the first action against a statewide movement of sect members to keep their 14-year-old children away from school.

The 18 defendants were arraigned before Alderman William Hull on complaints by Albert Cunningham, truant "officer of nearby Leacock Township. All entered bail of $300 pending a hearing Friday night. An Amish spokesman said leaders of the sect decided during the Summer to keep their 14-year-old children away from classes at the start of the Fall term, protesting the state administration of the school law enacted in 1939. The spokesman said that since the State Department of Public Instruction will not grant permits for the 14-year-olds to remain away from school for farm work and domestic service in accordance with the law, they would not send children eligible for thp permits to school. The arrests last night were the first mass action against the absenteeism which affects every Amish community in the state.

A 38-year-old Amish father in Mifflin County was sentenced to five days in Lebanon County Prison recently for failure to send his 14-year-old daughter to school. Two Lancaster County men were fined two dollars and costs each early this year for failure to send their 14-year-old children to school in Salisbury Township. Their appeal turned down by the I Lancaster County Court in July i but a further appeal is pending in the State Superior Court. CAR PRICES HIKED (Continued from First Page) "We were able to hold the line, however, against passing on the full amount of increased labor and material costs," Edgar S. Kaiser, president said, The Willow Run firm reduced prices slightly when it brought out its 1951 line.

But company, officials said "the lower prices were based upon increased production schedules, and were calculated upon the cost of parts, materials and labor prevailing in the Spring of the year before the outbreak in Korea." Packard Motor Car Company. in announcing its 1951 models, gave the first hint of what the whirlwind round of wage hikes already won by more than 800,000 CIO United Auto Worker." would mean to the car-buying public. Packard raised prices slightly on lower-priced cars and said it could cut prices on its higher- priced luxury models. But the K-F boost of fi-c-ni one- half of one per cent to six per cent on some of its fast-selling' Kaiser models was the first major price hike since General Motors started auto prices downward with S10 to cuts in February of 1949.

However, he wants authority to impose, or re-impose controls "where it became neces: sary and at such time as is became necessary." There seemed little or no prospect that Congress would act on Woods' proposals in time to block the end of controls in scores of communities millions of residents on Dec. 31. Under a provision in. the present law controls end on tha. date in all areas except those that take I affirmative action before then to keep them.

In the areas formally requesting a continuation of controls, ceilings will continue through June 30. Woods' office emphasized that his proposals had not been embraced officially as administration policy. However, they were understood to have been laid before President Truman, who said in a recent broadcast that rent conj trols must be tightened. WEIS SELF SERVICE MARKETS Mr. and Mrs.

On the afternoon of July 30, Sunday, he and his family were returning home from a car ride when he saw Rhea and another man running through his field. He stopped to investigate and after travelling down a ravine found Rhea's companion "hunkered" down in the field.

The man told Morgan he had been hunting groundhog. Morgan replied that he did not permit groundhog hunting on his land. The man denied another person was with him, but said he saw someone near the harn. At that point Rhea came running over a bank and with a .22 rifle levelled on Morgan uttered an oath several times and ended by saying "That's enough out of you." He proceeded to make Morgan walk backwards to the road, always with the .22 pointed at his breast and with his hand near the trigger. At this point court adjourned until 9 o'clock this morning.
