THREE ARM r MEN GIVEN TE YEARS By HAZEL HARTZOG (United Press Staff Crrespndent) TOKYO, Oct. 3.—Three U. 3, Army sergeants today were sen tenced to 10 years at hard laboi and dishonorable discharge for the slaying of a Japanese civiliar and his son after a wild “sake party” in the home of the Jap anese. Convicted of manslaughter bj a general court martial were Sgt, Ray J. Oroark, 25, Los Angles and formerly of Kansas City; S-Sgt. Sherman E. Huffmann, 19; Pittsfield, 111., and Sgt. Johr Nimits, 24, Wilmo.e, Pa. The men, recently transferred t the famed First Cavalry Di vision, were charged with firsl degree murder—the first againsl a member of the American Oc cupation Force since the Japanese surrender—but the curt fund th-im guilty of manslaughter af ter two days of testimony. Japenese witnesses, civil autho rities and ccupatin fficials ap peared on the stand to testify con cerning the death of Katsuzi Ta naka and his 16-year-old son, Osamu, who apparently had in vited the three soldiers into their home in Yokohama for a drinking party after the trio went AWOL fhiair parrvn at. Kpin TTnivPr sity, near Yokohama. The findings of the court mar tial, headed by Trial Judge Capt. Anthony Constantino, Dunkirk, N. Y., are subject to review by the Division Judge Odvocate, Maj. Gen. William C. Chase, of Provi dence, R. I., the division com mander, and Gen. Douglas Mac Arthur. Chase said today the men had been given the fairest trial pos sible. He said he had been order ed to insure an orderly occupation and to see that “any infractions were stamped out ruthlessly.” ' Neighbors of the Tanakas said they saw the soldiers running to ward a railway station on the night of Sept. 16 about two hours after they entered the home. Tanaka’s body was found in the kitchen—he had been beaten and shot. His son, a bullet in his back, was found on the sidewalk out side, apparently shot while run ning for help. Witnesses said Oroark and Huff mann then commandeered a train at gunpoint from a Jap anese station master to carry them back to camp. Nimits hid in bushes near the Tanaka resi dence all night and surrendered the next day. None of the defendants took the stand. Defense Attorney Capt. Herbert B. Brill, former New York lawyer, based his case on the contention the prosecution’s evi dence was circumstantial and quoted the three sergeants as tell ing investigators the Japanese had attacked them from behind. Huffmann lost a finger from a gunshot wound. Lt. Philip Mat thews, Bridgehampton, N. Y., di vision judge advocate, said the younger Tanaka apparently had returned the soldiers’ shot while running for help.

When faculties and students of the universities protested the State or siege ana me wave ui arrests, President Farrell told them, in ef fect, to stay out of politics or have their schools closed. Students occupation of the Buenos Aires buiding and the nationwide strike followed. U. S. TAKES SLAP AT FARKELL REGIME WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.—(JP)~ The United States led the Western Hemisphere today in delivering a new diplomatic slap at the mili tary clique which is governing Argentina.
