He allegedly ad mitted hitting Rogers with the deadly weapon, but assured officers that Rogers had pulled a knife on him. This was re futed by Sam Spencer. Wilson went inside the house and produced the axe for the officers. One officer on duty at the po lice desk told a CAROLINIAN newsman last Friday that one of the blows produced by the axe exposed a small portion of Mr, Rogers' brain. The officers' report stated that both men "had been drink ing heavily." Both men had known each o ther at least fifteen years and the axe incident shocked many persons acquainted with them. A check at Wake Memorial Hospital last Saturday afternoon and Tuesday of this week showed Rogers to be in "fair" con dition. Wilson is being held under a SSOO bond in the Wake County Jail on a. charge of assault with a deadly weapon with in tent to kill.

The complainant said she thought it might have been the other lady at first, but when she discovered it was a man, she told him to "turn me loose, but he didn’t." The woman said she attempted to get away, but couldn't, but was able to maneu ver herself over to the light switch and cut the lights back on.

RAY’S SUDDEN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) he didn’t puli the trigger? There are people who seek to indict themselves inthe murder of celebrities in order to gain publicity or to "punish” them selves for something they feel pathologically guilty about. Ray could be like that. Or something else might have dis suaded him from trying to delay or prevent his return to the United States by appealing his extradition all the way up to the British House of Lords. Ray’s defense had been that he could not be extradited since Dr. King, whom he was accus ed of killing, was purportedly a "political figure." The first court that heard that story didn't buy that, but appeals had been planned in London. Arthur Haines, a Birming ham (Ala.) attorney, had gone to London to defend the suspect, and things seemed to be going Ray’s way when he decided to return home. Working in the suspect's fa vor was the fact that he was ar rested in London while using the name of Sneyd. It remained for both British and U. S. officials to prove that Sneyd was Ray, and this was likely to make his extradition even more difficult. Now, Ray’s days in London are over, and his next challenge is defending him against local charges that he killed Dr. King, The suspect likely did not re turn to this country except for some good reason. He probably has some startling, revealing, even shocking things to say when Everything For..

He is charged with assault with a deadly weapon with in tent to kill, pending Taylor’s outcome. CLEVEL’D RIOT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) This marked the nation’s worst disaster since the de structive rioting in Washington in the wake of the assassina tion of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., in Memphis Tenn , on April 4, this year. Apartments, stores and cars were set afire and for two miles along both sides of Su perior Avenue, a major tho roughfare, firemen braved sniper fire to fight fires ignit ed by Molotov cocktails. Flames ranged from East 105th St., the area where the snipers were reportedly holed up, to the city limits, two miles away. The shooting lasted more than five hours Tuesday night and well into the morning hours of Wednesday. It subsided dur ing a driving rainstorm, then erupted again at an intersec tion in the heart of a five block area where the disturb ance first broke out. NEGRO MAYOR SEES PLOT Mayor Carl B, Stokes, the first Negro mayor in this city’s history, believes the violence may have been planned. "There is a definable group involved, the mayor stated. "We've been running it down since yester day (Tuesday) afternoon. We were trying to ascertain just what the fragments of inform ation were," According to police officials, the snipers were using at least one machine gun, automatic carbines, MI rifles and shot guns. Although Mayor Stokes first requested that Governor James A. Rhodes keep National Guard troops from the area of vio lence to give the Negroes a chance "to see if they can con trol their community, he relent ed moments later and the troops invaded the city. Mayor Stokes is the head of the nation’s eighth largest city. His election last year, following a major riot lnl966lntheHough section of Cleveland, had given rise to hopes that the city would be spared racial disturbances during his tenure. According to witnesses, a group of rive Negroes, about 8:80 p. m. Tuesday, armed with carbines and automatic rifles poured bullets into a police cruiser and a tow truck that pulled up to the intersection of Lake view and Arbondale Aves. to pick up an abandoned car. Witnesses also said one of the five gunmen screamed, "We’ll shoot anything that’s white. Mayor Stokes was under hea vy police guard when he ad dressed a news conference at the peak of the disturbance. Ke C.J. Beck with doesn't mind a liţle grease on his face...

This caused Of ficer Willie Farr lor to believed that Harris had gone away and left his dog locked in the house. When the officers did get into the house they found Harris’ body in a bad state of decay. In order to really determine the cause of death, the body was sent to Cape Fear Valley Hos pital, where an autopsy was to be held It was believed that he died from loss of blood from a severe wound that he re ceived on his shoulder. Finding that Harris’ car, a 1964 blue and white Buick, was not to be seen, a broadcast was sent out. It was not too long before Greensboro police had the suspect. The report of his arrest revealed that the youth was noticed going through a red light, in one of Greensboro's streets and was stopped for the traffic violation.
