Before he admitted his guilt, De Ponte engaged in a brief verbal sparring match with the judge, who wanted proof that De Ponte had no money.

The point was whether or not De Ponte could pay for his own attorney. Instead of having one appointed at county expense. William N. Bissell, who was named De Pontes counsel in Municipal Court, pointed out his client could not fill out a paupers affidavit because he can't read. Rowson ended the impasse by his right hand, Heavey said.

Criminologist Morris Godsky said it appeared that a bullet had made a hole through the screen door, and then entered the wall of a house in front of the apartment Another bullet was recovered from Olliffe's body.

Both Hazen and Avery were on probation from Washington State, and the committee raised the question whether they were adequately supervised. Anthony Lovoi, representing the probation department, told the committee that each probation officer in the county has a case load of 90.

Although this is one of the lowest figures in the state it represents an impossible task of adequate supervision Lovoi said. Supervisor William Werder told the committee that if the grand jury survey shows a need for additional probation officers, the county supervisors will be receptive Diet Atty. Keith CL Sorenson assured Chairman S. D. Herkner that he would assist the committee in presenting the request to the grand jury.

De Ponte has been under intensive questioning and investigation by three police departments since his arrest two weeks ago. He has admitted many crimes, but has refused to say what became of the proceeds, or to name the fences" he dealt with.

Bissell surprised Judge Rose by not asking for probation for his client, a routine motion even in a murder case. Bissell indicated De Ponte was not interested in any futile legal maneuvering. As a two-time loser, he is not eligible for probation. When De Ponte heard that his sentencing a mere formality will be delayed for two weeks while a pre-sentencs report is prepared, he shrugged in disgust and stalked angrily back to the dock. Trial date for a Menlo Park man accused of murder also was set yesterday.
