LEOPOLDVILLE (UPI)— Thir-
teen Italian soldiers flying for the

murdered by drunken Congolese
troops last Saturday a UN

The spokesman said the Ital-

I They apparently had been mis-
aken for Belgian paratroopers
-Pan Smith UN official here
called a special news conference
to announce the deaths
"It is with very deep regret
that we must presume 13 col-
leagues of the Italian air force
have been brutally murdered by
soldiers of the national Congolese
army at Kindu" he said
Smith said the Italians were
having lunch at a Malayan UN
officers' mess when a drunken
mob of Congolese troops attacked
He said the Italians were beat-
en severely and dragged off to a
hilltop near Kindu prison where
they were shot in front of a cheer-
ing crowds Some of the Ital-
ians were unconscious from the
beatings when the shooting oc-
curred Smith said some of the bodies
then were hacked to pieces and
thrown into the Luluaba River
nearby
"On behalf of Dr (UN Congo
chief Store) Linner and all the
UN staff we express our revul-
sion at this crime and the nature
of it and we sent heartfelt sym-
pathy to the families of our col
leagues" Smith said
The names of the victims were
being withheld pending the notifi-
cation of next of kin

F D Durham
Trial How
In Progress
1
The second degree forgery trial
of F D Durham former superin-
tendent of the Clearview schools
was underway today before Dis-
trict Judge Jess I Miracle
County Attorney Franklin Rah-
hal in his Opening statement to
the jury charged that Durham
had mishandled 82309530 over a
period of 15 years Truman Simp-
son of Shawnee is the attorney for
the defense '
Attorney Rahhal presented as
evidence several warrants notes:
and assignments of claims alleged-I
ly signed by teachers of the school
because Durham had told them no
funds for payment of wages were
available Rahhal said that he had
"hundreds" of such warrants and
notes
Ardell Withers teacher in the
Clearview school during 1958 to
1960 testified as the first witness
for the prosecution She stated that
she would not have endorsed her
warrants and signed promissory
notes had she known that funds
were available to pay the teach-i
era their monthly salaries She stat-
ed that she was approached by
Durham with her claim and a note'
to sign every month since she
started teaching in Oearview in
1955
The county attorney called as
his second witness Thomas Spen-
cer deputy examiner for the de-
partment of public education Spen-
cer an accountant and auditor
said that he had audited the books
of the county treasurer and that
funds were available at all times
to pay the warrants issued to the
teachers
A jury of four women and eight
men are hearing the case
LETTER
To The Editor
I want to congratulate you on
your editorial advocating more re-
creational facilities in Okemah for
children youth and adults Such
facilities are not an elective but a
necessity in modern community
life Local individuals and groups
should proceed at once to plan and
to work to this end It will take
both hard work and money and
both will be forthcoming if the
Interest and concern is there The
physical activity and mental sti-
mulation of athletic competition on
a tennis court baseball diamond
or other play area is a proven det-
errent to delinquency in all age
groups Excellent progress has
been made under the leadership
of the QUARTERBACK Club in
our baseball program
We need to promote tennis courts
which may be used by both boys
and girls as well as adults Hard
surface courts may be used the
year around In Oklahoma They
may be lighted for night play
A a you pointed out we get more
value per dollar with tennis courts
than any other recreation facility
Properly engineered and con-
structed they will last many years
Courts at Bartlesville Oklahoma
where I played 35 years ago are
still in use
It has been my good fortune to
play tennis in towns and cities from
New York to California and from
Chicago to Houston I have taught
the fundamentals of the game to
dozens of youngsters through sum-
mer youth programs and private
lessons It will be a pleasure to
give some of my time to such a
project in Okemah to teach our
youth a game that they can play
all their lives and almost any-
where in the world for it is a un-
iversal game played in nearly
every country
As a newcomer to Okemah I
fallen in love with this fine com-
munity of friendly people I con-
fess my personal dissappointment
at finding no tennis courts and I
stand ready to work with all
others interested In changing this
situation
