J. J. Robinette, counsel for Norman Kindy, 16, of Stamford Township, told the court that evidence on which his client was convicted in Welland was circumstantial and "based on pure guess work." Col. H.

A. Rose of Welland appeared for 20-year-old Edwin Earrington, of Glendale, R.I., convicted with Kindy last February, Crown Counsel William Common admitted circumstantial nature of the evidence but said "there is no other interpretation than that the accused were responsible for the death." The two youths were arrested early in October in Tulsa, and were charged jointly with the shooting of Bell an an an an alleged bootlegger, the who head was the found threshold shot on of his home Sept. 24.

He contended that all the evidence submitted at the trial was circumstantial and that the charge to the jury made no disinction between the cases of the youths.

He will be granted one year's leave of absence from the staff to write, according to his parents. His collection of poems, "The Wounded Prince," published early this year in England, was, in the opinion of his parents, the principal reason for the award. (Mr. and Mrs.

International Plowing Match winner, whose prize was a trip to the British Isles with a team of plowing ions last winter. He was introduced 'by Rotarian Clifford Bowman, and at the conclusion of his address, was thanked by Rotarion Otto Johann. Mr.

Brunton recounted how he and the other plowmen from Canada were called "Spivs" as they left a football game at Edinburgh in government cars. The crowds of football fans who were leaving on foot at the close of game apparently resented seeing the group of men drive by in big cars. The Queen Mary, on the rough trip overseas, had a 21-degree roll, he told the club, remarking, "I'd hate to be when she reached a 39 degree which they aboard, say is the most she's ever done yet." Leaving Toronto on Jan. 15, the group of plowmen visited New York before sailing for England. In London they saw the Tower of London, St.

Paul's Cathedral and Windsor Castle, attended a Sunday service in Westminster Abbey and listened to soap orators in Hyde Park, who "discussed any subject under the sun." Mr. Brunton recounted how English photographers asked John Capton, the Indian plowman, to remove his cap, "apparently thinking he grew feathers on his head." Mr. Brunton said drolohn was the drawing card of our and he was a fine fellow too." "I thought from what I'd heard that London must have been nearly flattened by the bombs, but we could drive almost for hours without seeing any damage, although certain sections, like the one around St. Pauls', were flattened." Rationing Severe "We don't know what is in this country." Mr. Brunton asserted, telling of their meals in England.

Rationing is very severe over there, and any, parcels sent from here are certainly needed." At Windsor Castle there are. 450 clocks, some of them as old as 400 years, and it keeps one man 0C- cupied full-time in maintaining them, the speaker said. He gave many such interesting little bits of information which he picked up during the trip. The plowmen saw the King's farm near London, Cambridge University. where there are 20 colleges, and a privately-owned which is situated a cannery, farm.ere 3,000 persons are employed.

Telling of taking part in an plowing match, Mr. Brunton joked that "We didn't want to change from our good clothes into dirty old clothes to plow after all we had been doing. We almost thought we were too good for that." However, he said, John Cauton took second prize in one class, although the English method of plowing is different from that used over here, and their competitors all used whelled plows. "The highlight of the whole trip, for me at least, was seeing some sheep dogs in action in the north of England," Mr. Brunton said.

He told how the dogs answered to whistled commands, each command for each dog being a different whistle. The plowmen liked Edinburgh better than Glasgow because it seemed so much cleaner and more beautiful than the industrial city, ne said. At Edinburgh they visited Holyrood Castle, the Firth of Forth bridge and Loch Lomond.

"Everybody got soaking wet, as it rained all day," recalled the speaker. The match was followed by a banquet.

In Belfast they attended a dance, and later went aboard the recentlylaunched Canadian aircraft carrier, "Magnificent," which was being built there. Mr. Brunton visited some friends in England, and the group then left for Canada again on Feb. 19 aboard the Queen Elizabeth.

COUNTY COUNCIL TO OPEN SESSION HERE WEDNESDAY The April session of the Grey County Council, presided over by Warden Sam McMillan, Reeve of Sarawak, opens in the County Court House on Wednesday afternoon, April 14. One of main items of business to usually considered by County Council at the April session is the suggested construction and maintenance program of the Roads Committee, this year under the chairmanship of Councillor John A. Davis, of Artemesia. It will be recalled that routine was impossible in April 1947, however owing to exorbitant expenditures having been necessary during the winter in order to keep the roads open.

This year, however, conditions are normal and more money will be available for maintenance and construction than was the case in 1947. Property Committee also probably table its estimated expenditures for the year so that everything is in readiness for the county tax rate to be fixed. and levied, when Council meets in June. It is also considered quite likely that during the April session the Consultative Committee, which has been working on the suggestion of establishing larger high school areas within the confines of the county, wtil submit an interim report. The April session is usually only of brief duration, commencing on the afternoon of Wednesday and adjourning at about noon on the following Saturday, one of the reasons for this being the fact that a majority of the County Councillors are anxious to be at work on their farms.
