Last June 22 Shields killed furniture dealer Sheik Dastagir, 40, outside his home at 13944 Valerio Van Nuys. The manslaughter verdict was returned against Shields last Nov. 10 by a jury of 10 women and two men in Judge Jeffersons court.

President McKinley held a half-hour Interview with him and granted him an appointment to West Point. It was in 1902, while he was still a plebe at the military that Roosevelt formally awarded him the medal. This was the first and only time a cadet or, in fact, any Army man ever has received the medal there. Titus retired to the Valley in 1930. He never saw battle action after the Boxer Re hellion.

HOLIDAY Continued from Page 1 for advice on how to avoid the holiday hangover. For myself, I stick to the following rules and never have a hangover, said the medical specialist who replied. I make sure there is something in my stomach to mop up the drinks before diner. I always at some bread or a spongecake before leaving home, I stick to sherry and avoid gin and cocktails like the plague. I always limit myself to two sherries.

I take care to drink good wine and I know how much I can stand. It is usually a bad thing to mix drinks but 1 know I can deal with a small brandy at the end. When I get home I drink half a pint of water, and Ive long ago forgotten what a hangover feels like. If you follow this advice and still have a hangover? Take two A.P.C. tablets, the initials standing for aspirin, phenacetin and caffein, the doctor replied.
