HILLSBOROUGH (AP) The
state scored a ey victory in
the Frank Rinaldi murder trial
Friday when Judge George M.
Fountain ruled that the jury be
allowed to consider statements
police said the defendant made
the night of his arrest.
Rinaldi, 36, a one-time grad
uate student and former Univ
ersity of North Carolina in
structor, is being tried a second
time on a a charge of first
degree murder in the death of
his wife on Christmas Eve,
1963.
He was convicted last Nov
ember, but the State Supreme
Court granted him a new trial
because of errors in the first
trial.
The jury of eight men and
four women was sent from the
courtroom Friday while Judge
Fountain heard testimony con
cerning statements allegedly
made by Rinaldi on the night
of his arrest. The same day
his wife was killed.
Following his ruling, Foun
tain returned the jury to the
courtroom. The jury was out
more than three hours.
Mrs. Rinaldi, 34, was found
slain in her husband's Chapel
Hill apartment with a scarf
knotted about her head. She
had been beaten severely
about the face and head. The
state contends a $20,000 double
indemnity insurance policy
motivated her death.
Police's Statement
Chapel Hill Police Sgt.
James Farrell testified Rinal
di asked him at the police
department, "How can you
sit with anyone who has done
what I have done?"
Detective Sgt. Howard Pen
dergrath said Rinaldi told him,
"I assume you are looking for
a motive. I guess money and
women would be the biggest."
Solicitor Thomas D. Cooper
Jr. said no effort was made at
Rinaldi's first trial to get these
statements before the jury.
A state Bureau of Investiga
tion agent, F. G. Satterfield
Jr., testified Thursday while
the jury was absent that Ri
naldi told him the night of his
arrest the police might think
he killed his wife for three
reasons:
1. Financial difficulties; 2.
Money; and 3. Another wom
an. In ruling the testimony ad
missible, Judge Fountain said
the statements were made
"voluntarily without any
threat." He added that Ri
naldi's constitutional rights
had not been violated.
Defense attorney Barry Win
ston testified that he had been
assured by Pendergrath and
another SBI agent, Haywood
Starling, that Rinaldi would
be sent to a hospital for a
sedative and would be allow
ed to go to bed without being
questioned further the night of
the slaying.
No Recall
Starling told the judge, "I
do not recall any such conver
sation." Then Starling added
to Winston, "What you are
saying has no truth whatso
ever." Starling told the court he
had advised Rinaldi at the po
lice station that anything he
might say could be held
against him. Police testified
that Rinaldi was taken to a
hospital where he was given
two envelopes containing pills
for his emotional condition.
Trial.
The officers said they did not
know whether he took the pills.
Pendergrath, Starling, Far
rell and another officer, Lt.
Charlie Edmonds, testified in
their opinion Rinaldi was not
under the influence of any
drug when he went to bed the
night of his arrest.
Rinaldi and his wife, a bride
of only five months when she
died, grew up in Waterbury,
Conn., where they were child
hood sweethearts. She was
about 17 weeks pregnant when
she was killed.
The courtroom was less than
half filled for Friday's sessions.
Prospective Jurors Admit
Belief In Negro Inferiority
HAYNEV1LLE, All. (AP)
Prospective white jurors chos
en for the civil rights murder
trial of a Ku Klux Klansman
admitted in most instances
yesterday that they believe
Negroes are inferior.
They said, too, in answer to
lengthy questioning by a
state's attorney that they have
a low opinion of white civil
rights workers who live and
work with Negroes.
But despite their belief in
white supremacy, they said
they felt they could consci
entiously impose the death
penalty on a white defendant
charged with killing a white
civil rights worker.
The members of the jury
panel were questioned indi
vidually at the outset of Klans
man Collie Leroy Wilkins,
Jr.'s second trial for the slay
ing of a Detroit housewife and
civil rights worker, Mrs. Viola
Liuzzo.
Atty. Gen. Richmond Flow
ers, who removed the regular
prosecutor and took charge of
the case himself with an an
gry denunciation of the Klan,
chose the seldom-used proce
dure of questioning the pros
pective jurors individually as
a means of geti'ng as much
information as he could about
their background and beliefs.
A member of Flowers' staff,
Assistant Atty. Gen. Joe
Breck Gantt, did most of the
questioning.
One juror, J. F. Callison, a
farmer from nearby Calhern,
shot back "Where are you
from?" when the Assistant At
torney General asked him if
he believed white persons are
superior to Negroes.
"I'm from Alabama, from
south Alabama," replied
Gantt, the former prosecuting
attorney at Andalusia.
"How would you answer
that question?" Callison want
ed to know. "I can't answer
it any more than you can."
However, he agreed later
that he believes the white race
is superior.
Morehead Show Features
'Earth In The Universe9
Morehead Planetarium is
currently showing a one-hour
program to demonstrate the
workings of the Zeiss Plane
tarium Projector. The demon
stration of the two and one
half ton projector . will run
through Nov. 22.
"Because we have so many
questions about our star ma
chine we have devised 'The
Earth in the Universe' to
show to the public just what
the projector can do," said
Donald S. Hall, assistant di
rector at the Planetarium.
During the show, the pro
jector will be moved on its
three axes of motion to simu
late motion in the sky due to
rotation, revolution, wobble,
and movement of the observer
on earth.
Morehead audiences will be
able to watch the moon whiz
through part of its cycle of
phases, travel to the North
Pole, see the sky over North
Carolina as it would appear
in the year 13,000 A.D., and
observe many other celestial
sights.
The program is shown each
night at 8:30, Saturdays at 11
a.m., 1, 3, 4, and 8:30 p.m.
(11, 5, and 8:30 on home foot
ball Saturdays), and Sundays
at 2, 3, 4, and 8:30.
"The Zeiss Projector here is
one of only six in the entire
country and the only one in
the southeast. We hope every
one will come to witness this
presentation," Hall said.

i
Soup, soap and shooting
were the topics of Y-Court
soap-boxers as SPU members
and campus conservatives
verbally refought the Asian
war yesterday.
A supersonic "Tiger" jet
brought in with a Navy in
formation team had sparked
the activity.
Advocates of President
Johnson's Viet Nam policy
dominated the scene, putting
the peace group on the de
fensive. More than 500 persons
watched conservatives wave
signs like:
"End the War in Viet
Nam Kill the V.C."
"Get Out of the South
(in Viet Nam) Go North."
But the peace demonstrators
had their own posters, includ
ing: "Missiles Classify Power
First, People Second. Why
Are the People Being Forgot
ten in Viet Nam?"
That was the sign of Henry
Coe, a graduate student in
city and regional planning,
who, although not an SPU
member, is opposed to the
Asian fighting because of his
religious beliefs.
"Power Breeds Power," the
sign's other side read.
The sailors who came to
show off the "Tiger" jet mere
ly grinned and suggested the
peace picketers be drafted.
The servicemen's command
er said the demonstrators
drew above-average crowds to
his exhibit of U. S. military
equipment, but he explained
he was not authorized to re
cruit students on campus.
'The Navy should send
those 'peaceniks' over there,"
a burly sailor suggested.
Chip Sharpe, last year's
SPU president, asked a heck
ler, "Do you want to kill your
enemy?"
"Well," the heckler shot
back, "that's one way of do
ing things."
Later, somebody sneaked up
behind Sharpe and secretly
pasted a "Go Navy" sticker
onto the seat of his pants.
SPU member Katherine
Stuart, New Orleans senior,
said a Navy slogan had been
attached to her note book.
Generally, however, there
was little trouble, though Miss
Stuart commented: "(The
stay-in-Viet Nam people) were
not hostile, except when they
heckled us."
Bryden Manning, SPU treas
urer, said she had been giv
en a bar of soap but it was
only the second she'd been
handed since the "soupfast."
"We auctioned that bar off,"
she said, "for $3.85 at last
Sunday's (SPU) meeting."

"MY OWN PHILOSOPHY" Thai was the
reason Henry Coe, a graduate student in the
department of City and Regional Planning,
gave for demonstrating in Y-Court yesterday.
Coe, who is a Quaker, emphasized that he is
not connected with any campus organization.
His sign read. "Missiles classify power first,
people second. Why are people being forgotten
in Viet Nsun?" The Navy plane in the back
ground is a recruiting exhibit for the NROTC
program.
