Judge
Ponders
Testimony
BRUNSWICK,Ga. (UPI)-Su
perior Court Judge Jack Ballen
ger was expected to rule today
on whether to admit the testi
mony of arresting officers at
the murder trial of Charlotte,
N.C., baseball executive Charles
P. Howser.
Ballenger predicted his deci
sion would be a “landmark”
one because there was a ques
tion whether the officers were'
acting as private citizens or law
enforcement representatives at
the time of the arrest.
At a pretrial hearing earlier
this week, Ballenger criticized
the work of the investigating of
ficers who, according to the de
fense, searched Bowser’s room
at a resort hotel on nearby Je
kyll Island without a warrant.
Howser, general manager of
the Charlotte Hornets of the
Southern League, was charged
with the slaying of Mrs. Caro
lyn Fraley Hogan, 46, Char
lotte divorcee, at the motel last
August.
A state patrolman and a
Georgia Bureau of Investigation
agent searched Bowser’s third
floor motel room. State patrol
men are legally restricted to
enforcing the law on the high
ways.
GBI Agent Hugh Jenkins was
called to the scene of Mrs. Ho
gan’s death by Patrolman Cuy
ler Payne. Her body was found
beneath a balcony of the motel.
At the hearing, Jenkins and
Payne testified they questioned
Howser and searched his room,
taking several items from it,,
some of which they said were
bloodstained.
The indictment charged How
ser used his hands and an “in
strument” to cause the death of
Mrs. Hogan.

LONDON (UPI)-Yong Liei

in court Wednesday, pleading
guilty to shoplifting a skirt, a
jumper and a pair of slacks
from a West End store.
“Did you find it an agreeable
experience?” asked Magis
trate St. John Harmsworth.
“Oh, yes—and I have learned
a lot,” she replied.
“I’m inclined to accept what
you say,” he said—and fined
her sl2 with a warning: “No
more practical lessons like
this.”

. ASKS CENSORSHIP BAN
TEL AVIV (UPI) - The
Foreign Press Association
called on the Israeli govern
ment Wednesday to abolish
censorship on all outgoing news
material.
The association, with 100
accredited members, said the
president method of censorship
is “ineffective and inoperable”
and is commonly applied in
different ways on identical
stories.
“On occasion, details of
pertinent news stories are
withheld for what appear to be
reasons of image or prestige,”
the statement said.
