Barefoot is a big, pink - cheeked farmer with red hair and a face that looks like he’d been eating crispy crunchies all his life. This morning, right after breakfast, he was on trial for shooting a man. The sister of Warren O. Tart accused Barefoot of shooting her brother In the hip with a pistol. Barefoot admitted the shooting and said he tried to avoid it. Judge H Paul' Strickland, presiding in Dunn Recorder’s Court, acquitted him. Tart, on the other hand, the Ju dge found guilty on several counts. Though Jail sentences against Tart were suspended, it became plain who would pay the considerable hospital ftiil (1800-91000) which Tart owes. When Barefoot took the stand, he claimed that he took "ten good steps backward” before he started firing at Tart. Warren O. or “O". as he oalled him (“My mother and his mother were first cousins") had I come at him with a knife, he said. I Meticulously recounting ah' the events of a fateful night. Barefoot icld how he had stopped by at the house of Mrs. Floyd McLamb to see how her "measled children” were doing. Mrs. McLamb, it turned out, was doing worse than they were. In previous testimony, the plump widow had claimed that Warren O. was making passes at her and she couldn't get him to leave. When Bafefoot drove up, she asked him to take a hand, and he, so both re counted, got Tart to go away with him in his pickup. But later Tart started back.

W — A 24-year-old tugtive from Massachusetts was shot to death by Georgia troopers today after he had killed a Louisville, Georgia, officer and kidnaped a terrified wo man and her young son. Patrolmen identified the des perado. as Jerald Peter Beaucalre, Dorchester. Mass., from papers taken from his wallet. The woman, Mrs. John Herring ton Jr., head nurse at the Millen, Ga . hospital, was driving Beau caire In her own car when officers shot the tires near here. Beaucalre shot Patrolman James H. Landrum at the little east-cen trai Georgia tobacco town of Louis ville when the officer apparently stopped him for routine question ing. Then he savagely pistol-whip ped the policeman as he lay on the ground, dying, and left him. SLUGS WOMAN Speeding out of Louisville. Beau ; caire wrecked his car near Millen, a small town about 50 miles south ; east of Louisville. Fate picked Mrs. Herrington for ! Beaucaire's next victim early to • day. He banged on her door, forced | his way in and demanded that she | drive him out of town. When she refused, he slugged ! her on the head with a wrench he was carrying. Dazed but still con scious, she staggered to her car ; with Beaucaire and her 12-year-old son, Johnny. Her husband was not at hpme and didn't know what had happened to his family until it was aJ lover. .FrowM Milieu.

Not far north of Millen, howev- j er. some ot the scores of officers | who had been called out on the | manhunt had thrown up a road— i block and Mrs. Herrington pulled! to a stop. Young Johnny, on orders of Beau caire, told officers there that the man with him was his brother and they were going for a doctor. But Mrs. Herrington managed to signal to the police with her left arm and one officer fired a shot at the car without effect. Beaucaire put the muzzle of his pistol to the boy's head and threat ened to shoot him If the mother didn't drive away, Johnny said in a calm statement about his experi ences. The chase was on. with troop ers, sheriffs deputies and even game wardens in pursuit. Seven and a half miles north of Waynesboro an officer shot out a tire of the car, Mrs. Herrington, still driving, fought the steering wheel to keep from overturning (Continued On Page Four) OK WITH WHITE BOSTON UP — Dr. Paul Dudley White, heart specialist who super vised President Eisenhower’s con valescence after his heart attack, said today the President's decision to run for a second term appears • all right to me.” REHEARSAL SCENE — Pictured in rehearsal for -ITie Barrett* of YVimpole Street" at Campbefl College are William TunstaU. a*' Robert Browirtng, and Jean Bohd of Wake Forest anil Buies Creels as Elizabeth Barrett.

'hr HALL SAYS HEALTH ISSUE CAN BOOMERANG HST Says Demos Can Lick Anybody Uiiwrr, Leonard W. Hall of the Republican National Committee predicted to day that Democratic use of the; health issue against President Eis enhower will “boomerang" and they will lose votes." Hall also stuck to his prediction that Richard M. Nixon will be re nominated for vice president. He made clear that he believes the President is only observing proprieties by withholding an en dorsement of Nixon for second place until the chief executive him self is renominated. Some of Nix on's friends, however, feared he is in trouble. The President himself, having made his decision to stand for re election. acted promptly to give the people of California and Wis consin a chance to vote for him in their primaries. He signed this morning legal documents, required by the laws of both states, consenting to the entry of slates of delegates pledged to him in the April 3 Wisconsin Republican primary and the June 5 California primary.

Now the “unity’ date will be jointly sponsored by the three erstwhile rivals — Gov. Goodwin J. Night. Vice President Nixon and I (Oontfnned on Pare Two* squared off today to exploit Presi dent Eiserihoer’s health as an issue in a ca.-jT'»ijra against a “part t.:ne" president, - Their reaction to Mr. Eisenhow er's second-term announcement ranged, from outright defeatism in •orae quarters to cheers in others. The cheers came from those who said they now would face the man who alone mast take responsibility next November for the Eisenhow er administration record. “We can lick anybody they put up, ’ said former President Tru man. The Democrats approached th? campaign with one eye on Mr. Eisenhower's cardiogram and the other on the farm vote. The Re publicans felt that neither issue would mean much against their “peace and prosperity” campaign with a candidate still riding a crest of popularity in public opinion polls. HEALTH IS ISSCE Nearly all Democrats emphasised that their 1956 campaign will be a rigorous one questioning whether Mr. Eisenhowers heart attack last fall would permit him to be a full time president. Whether softly or or bluntly, they were making as issue of the President1# health. Democrats said Mr. Eisenhow er's candidacy would not affect their plans because they had al** (Continued On Page Eight) New Companies Formed A six-year partershin has been dissolved by Ellis Barbour and Fred Byerly who Joined forces six years aso Ao form the Barbour-Byerly Mutual Insurance Agency.
