Mrs. Murray, the last person to see the 36-year-old screen star alive, said that "when she went to her bedroom she really was depressed because she couldn't go to sleep." Mrs. Murray said the actress spent most of Saturday in bed resting. "She wasn't ill," she said.

"She was just resting." MISS MONROE called her psychiatrist a few hours before she was found dead, saying, "I can't sleep.

Polls will open at 7 a.m. and close at 8 p.m.

With only one statewide contest on the ballot, less than a third of the state's 3.8 million registered voters are expected to visit the 5,198 precinct stations. Republican voters will choose a running-mate for George Romney, the party's unopposed candidate for governor. THE THREE GOP lieutenant governor, hopefuls are State Senator John H. Stahlin, of Belding; Constitutional convention delegate Rockwell T. Gust, of Grosse Pointe Farms, and former Lieutenant Governor Clarence Reid, of Detroit.

While the three-way race has stirred interest among Republican Party workers, the general public largely has been Indifferent. Reid, a quiet campaigner, stands out as the man to beat solely on the basis of past performance. He was the last Republican lieutenant governor. serving in 1953-54, and he won the party nomination two years ago. Democratic voters will have no statewide contest on their ballots and local races in only a few districts, mainly, in the Detroit metropolitan area.

GOV. SWAIKSON and Lt. Gov. T. John Lesinski are unopposed in their bid for their second two-year terms.

Party managers will be watching the total vote turn out for an indication of the rel ative popularity of Swainson and Romney. Based on past history, the results are unlikely to reveal much. Republicans consistently outvoted Democrats in primary elections prior to 1958 while losing five straight guberna torial elections in the fall bal loting. Democrats drew the larger primary votes in 1958 and 1960 and their victory margins the following November were smaller than usual. third statewide office is to Turn to Page 2A, Column 4 Sweet Smell Of Success TAMPA, Fla.

People-to-People: Russians Hear America's Story This' is the ninth in a series of personal reports about Russia and her people, based on a month's tour of the Soriet Union just completed by Lee Hills and a group from the American Society of Newspaper Editors, of which he is president. BY LEE HILLS Fre Press Executive Editor MOSCOW The American Editors' tour of Russia turned into a running debate that must have been the liveliest since the United States and USSR started exchanging professional groups in 1955. Most of this was warm and friendly and some of it was packed with emotion. Every one of the daily luncheons and dinners was an occasion and every occasion called foe toasts and speeches and counter-speeches. The table talk often bristled with sharp exchanges.

The Reds are experts with the needle and, while we held our tempers, the Americans returned shaft for shaft. As head of the American Society of Newspaper Editors group, it was my job to make a half dozen -speecher a day, respond to countless toasts, and speak our greetings and farewells every time we left or boarded a plane or train. Others carried their full share of the talkfests. IX TASHKENT, we turned a big reception on the night of July 4 into an American Independence Day celebration. At "Volgograd, we drew an appreciative crowd by laying a wreath on the Fallen Fighters tomb, and startled some Cuban tourists by getting the hotel orchestra to play "Anchors Aweigh," "Jingle Bells," "Old Black Joe" and other American tunes from a song-book one of our group carried.

A four-engine Ameri-. can Airlines turboprop plane with 70 persons aboard including two Congressmen careened off a runway, cracked up and ripped off a wing as it landed at McGhee Tyson Airport late Mon day. No one was injured.

The engines in the torn-off wing caught fire. Alan Atkins. airport manager, said the fact the wing broke off probably saved those on board. "If the wing had not torn off, the plane would have burned with the passengers aboard," he said. AMONG THE 65 passengers aboard were Reps.

Alford, who only last week lost a bid for the Democratic nomination for governor, of Arkansas, was one of two passengers credited with assisting stewardesses in removing passengers after the plane settled. PASSENGERS said the other hero, a red-haired man in the tourist section, prevented any panic by standing up and shouting "we made a good landing." None of them knew his name. Nancy Root, 23, a tiny 100-pound stewardess, forced open the emergency door with her shoulder and stood back to make way for passengers. It was a six-foot jump from the emergency chute to the ground. Most of the passengers had to be handed down to rescue squadron members.

The changes could mean dismissal notices for 41,000 workers Instead of 13,000 and could touch off a nationwide rail strike. However, rail men said the move was primarily designed to forestall destruction of manage ment's economy program on tech nical legal grounds.

While we went to. Russia as hard-headed newsmen trying to learn, we often, like this, found ourselves in the roles of envoys representing the United States. I was proud of the forthright, sincere, reasoned manner in which every one of the Americans fielded the questions. A woman in the crowd that night had read in the paper' about the wreath-laying.

She asked one of our party more about it and, when he told her, she threw her arms around him and kissed his cheek. Her husband died in the battle there. She said we must be good if we honored their dead. She told the crowd that we "had hearts" and "please believe, what they say." These people-to-people encounters went on continuously. WE HAD BEEN WARNED that our hosts would try to drink us under the table with bottoms-up vodka toasts, and they did try.

But not once did a single member of our party get out of line, or fail to leave a function on his feet. We quickly learned to gobble thick slices of black bread smeared with butter, and to eat heartily when these marathons got under way. Outside Moscow, the people were less tense, the atmosphere more relaxed. One of our warmest greetings came at Volgograd (Stalingrad), where virtually nothing was left standing after the Nazi siege of 1942-43.
