Of Lebanon
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. u -
Lebanon haa asked an urgent
meeting of the U.N. Security
Council to take up her complaint
that President Nasser’s United
Arab Republic is interfering to
her two-week-old civil strife.
Council President Charles S. A.
Ritchie of Canada planned to con-
sult today with the other 10 mem-
bers on a meeting date.
In Cairo, the Arab League also
considered a meeting time and
place on a similar Lebanese com-
plaint. The U.A.R. has denied the
accusation.
A dispatch from Beirut said
U.S. Ambassador Robert McClin-
tock reportedly promised Ameri-
can support to the Security Coun-
cil. But some diplomats to the
Lebanese capital were said to
doubt that the republic could pre-
sent strong enough' evidence to
win backing from neutral nations.
Lebanon is informally allied to
the United States by acceptance
of the Eisenhower Doctrine. The

LINCOLN, Neb. QB — A Dis-
trict Court jury reassembles today
to ponder the fate of mass slayer
Charles Starkweather.
The eight women and four men
deliberated three hours last night.
Starkweather has admitted in-

tried for the shooting of Robert
Jensen, 17, high school junior.
Alternatives confronting jurors
are findings of innocent, innocent
by reason of insanity, guilty of
first-degree murder, second-de-
gree murder or manslaughter.
In first-degree convictions, the
jury sets the penalty at life im-

The prosecution seeks the death
penalty.
The defense pleaded Starkweath-
er innocent by reason of insanity.

A truck wheel took -abrief holi-
day from work to Denton early to-
day as it suddenly departed from
its truck and did its best to get
into a house on Fort Worth Drive
— through the wall.
The hookey playing wheel was
from a truck belonging to the E.
C. Flanagan Trucking Co.
of Corsicana. Loaded with bricks
the vehicle was headed north on
Fort Worth Drive when the acci-
dent occurred.
Mrs. G. T. Lillard. 3935 Fort
Worth Dr., said the playful right
rear wheel suddenly left the truck,
raced across the J. H. Barrow
lawn south of the Lillard home,
jumped a fence dividing the pro-
perties. narrowly missed herhus-
band (who was standing to his
yard), bounced across the Lillard
lawn, jumped a fence and hedge
north of the Lillard home and then
crashed into the side of the E. W.
Belcher house.
City Police Capt. J. E. (Tuck)
Bowling, who investigated, said
the Wheel smashed the wall of
the house, broke the baseboard on
the inside wall and rearranged
some of the furniture to the house.
Two panes of glass were also
knocked out of the windows.
Henry S. Meankins, driver of the
truck, was not ticketed.

CELINA (Staff) - The State
Highway Commission has been
asked to rebuild an old state high-
way through Celina, but apparent-
ly the body turned a cold shoulder
to the proposition.
Appearing before the commis-
sion in Austin Thursday, Dr.
Vance Stallcup and a Celina and
Prosper delegation were asked to
consult with county commissioners
for aid in the project. *
‘ Other members of the , group
were Dr. M. W. Graham, Volney
Phillips and Ken Massey of Ce-
lina, and Chester Hayes and Leon-
ard Harper of Prosper.
The Celina delegation asked
the state to rebuild State 289. Dr.
Vance Stallcup said rerouting
plans were made for the highway
in 1919 but that no action had
been taken on the 40-year-old
plans.
He told the commission the
highway had six 90-degree turns
within 14 miles, from State High-
way 24 north to the Collin-Grayson
County line.
The delegation told the com-
mission, according to the Associ-
ated Press, that since the road
does not run through McKinney,
the county seat, county commis-
sioners had never given their
complete suvrt to the project.
Highway cmission Chairman
Marshal Formby made the sug-
gestion that the group consult
with county commissioners to see
if countywide support could be
raised for the improvement pro-
ject estimated to cost $1,760,000.
The state last summer resur-
faced and widened the highway
south of SH 24 to a point east of
Frisco, but has repeatedly refus-
ed assistance for improvement of
the highway.
