All New Detergent That
Uncovers Hidden Dirt
By DICK WES I
WASHINGTON (U P Ij -
President Nixon believes, and
recent polls tend to confirm,
that the public is tired of the
Watergate hearings and ready
to see the matter consigned to
the courts
That also was a recurring
theme in TV talk shows, over
the weekend, so there must be
something to it
I’m convinced, however, that
for every person who is weary
of Watergate there’s another
who is thoroughly hooked on
the investigation and yearns for
the hearings to resume
You can see these poor devils
during the current recess
milling aimlessly around the
locked and silent Caucus Room
where the Watergate committee
meets
For them, life is empty,
shorn of meaning by the
committee’s decampment
Some Are Sen Sam Freaks
Some are Senator Sam freaks
who groove on the chairman's
homilies, anecdotes and folk
recitations Deprived of their
daily Dx of Ervinisms, they
sink into lassitude, hollow-eyed
wretches scarcely more than
living dead
Others are vicarious thrill
seekers whose nerve ends are
set atingle by the dramatic,
incisive way that Sen MOntoya
eschews obfuscation and im-
pales a witness with penetrat
ing questions
Denied that stimulus, they
seek substitute emotional enkin-
• dlement of auto demolition
derbies
I know a housewife, Millie
Piercelobe, who goes to the
television set a half dozen times
a day, confused and bewil-
dered, her mind refusing to
accept the fact that the
hearings aren't on
But I doubt that anyone
misses the hearings more than
Fess Parker, the actor noted
for his portYayal of Davy
Crockett
Former Mine Union Chief
Arrested On Murder Count
a television series based on the
Watergate case
Frankly, I don't see Parker ft
in that part It’s the type of
role that would better suit the
talents of Richard Burton Or
maybe Woody Allen
But Parker has his hear.t set
on it "Hopefully," he wrote, ’I t
will mature enough in a few
years to develop eyebrows such
as Sen. Ervin’s ”
Casting eyebrows aside,
Parker obviously has hit upon a
splendid way to fill the void
that will be left in so many
lives when the hearings finally
end
The psychological letdown
would be eased considerably if
at 10 a m., when the telecasts
used to begin, viewers could J
turn on their sets and tune in
on another episode in the
continuing struggles of a simple
country lawyer seen each week
day in "Sam Faces Life ” .
He Gets a Letter
I recently got a letter from
Parker in which he confided he
is beset by a consuming desire
to play the role of Sam Ervin in

HOUSTON (UPi)-Two more
murder indictments . have been
returned against a teen-ager ac-
cused in the sex anti torture
slayings of 27 young men
The Harris County grand jury
Thursday indicted Elmer Wayne
Henley, 17, in the deaths of
Homer Garcia, 17, and Frank
Aguirre, 19, both of Houston.
Henley now faces murder in-
dictments in six of the slayings.
He is accused of assisting Dean
‘Corll, a bachelor electrician, in
the killings over a three-year
period
Garcia 's body was one of four
unearthed last month near Lake
Sam Rayburn in East Texas He
vanished last July 17 while
hitchhiking in Houston.
Aguir re disappeared Feb. 24,
1972, while on his way to work.
His body was uncovered on a
remote stretch of beach near
High Island, Tex., along with
the bodies of five other young
men.
The bizarre tale of murder
unraveled when Henley told po-
lice Aug 8 he shot and killed
Corll at a drug and sex party
after Corll threatened him and
two companions.
Henley and another youth,
David Owen Brooks, then ad-
mitted their roles in the grisly
killings and led officers to a
rented boat shed where 17
bodies were unearthed, and to
the beach and lake gravesites.
Brooks, 18, faces four murder
indictments in the killings. Both
teen-agers are held on $100,000
bond each.

ALBANY, NY. (UPI) —
Regina M Robbins Thursday
officially broke the previously
all-male "long gray line" of
New York state troopers
stretching back to 1917
Miss Robbins, an attractive
brunette from New Woodstock,
and 125 males were sworn into
the Division of State Police by
Supt. William E Kirwan at
brief ceremonies at the unit’s
academy.
Positive
Identification
NEW YORK (UPI) — An FBI
agent was in a midtown bank
Thursday investigating a recent
robbery and he asked a teller if
she could describe the robber.
The teller answered that the
robber looked "a lot like the
man standing in that line over
there. You know, I believe that
is the same man.”
The agent then went over and
stood behind the man. Sure
enough, when the man reached
the window he passed a
robbery note, the FBI said.
The unidentified agent then
tapped him on the shoulder and
informed him of his constitu-
tional rights. John' Curry
Hyman, 35, of .New York, was
charged with bank robbery.
