Vietnamese capture Americans,
two Red Cross relief workers
BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) —
Two U.S. photographers and
two International Red Cross
officials, including one recently
decorated by Queen Elizabeth
II, were captured by Viet-
namese troops along the em-
battled Thai-Cambodian bor-
der, where fighting continued
for the fifth day today.
The Vietnamese approached
the four as they were inspecting
the abandoned refugee camp at
Nong Chan and led them away
Thursday. Why they were
seized was not immediately
known, but their capture came
one day after Vietnamese
Foreign Minister Nguyen Co
Thach warned Vietnamese
troops would halt a Thai-U.N.
program to repatriate Cam-
bodian refugees on grounds the
returnees really are armed
guerrillas battling to bring
down the Hanoi-backed regime
in Phom Penh.
The Red Cross said it has
approached all parties — the
Thais, Vietnamese and Cam-
bodians — to secure the release
of the captured who it identified
as Robert Ashe, holder of the
Order of the British Empire,
Bond denied in
r
church rampage
DAINGERFIELD, Texas (AP) — Bond has been denied for
Alvin Lee King III, charged with killing five people and
wounding 10 during a worship service at the First Baptist
Church here.
King remained in fair condition in the criminal detention
unit of Galveston's John Sealy Hospital, where he is
recovering from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
State District Judge Bill Moye said King would be entitled
to a rehearing when he leaves the hospital.
At the hearing Thursday, District Attorney Charles Mac
Cobb argued bond could be denied because at the time of the
shootings, King already was free on bond stemming from a
felony indictment of incest.
King was scheduled to go to trial Monday on the incest
charge brought on behalf of his daughter.
Cobb said the case would be presented to a grand jury as
soon as possible.
King was in critical condition until Wednesday, when he
was moved from the intensive care unit. He underwent brain
surgery early Monday.
He shot himself in the head after he allegedly stormed the
church during a worship service Sunday.
A heavily armed gunman wearing a flak jacket and helmet
kicked in the door at the church and yelled: “This is war!”
before spraying the congregation with rifle fire.

The U.S. Embassy named the
Americans as George
Lienamann and Richard
Franken, photographers and
co-owners of the Bangkok-
based Lensman advertising
company who recently com-
pleted a book for the U.N. high
commissioner for refugees.
Secretary of State Edmund S.
Muskie had no immediate
comment on the seizure.'
Perrin, the captured French
citizen, is the medical coor-
dinator for the Red Cross at the
Thai-Cambodian border where
the Geneva-based organization
has an extensive medical and
relief operation. Ashe was in
From the
rap sheet
Jury hands down
death sentence
EI, RENO, Okla. (AP) -
Glen Burton Ake now faces two
death sentences and 1,000 years
in prison in connection with the
deaths of the Rev. and Mrs.
Richard Douglass and the
wounding of their children.
The same jury that took two
hours to find Ake, 24, guilty of
the charges Thursday
recommended the sentences.
A judge will formally assess
the sentences July 25.
"He didn’t show any reac-
tion,” said defense lawyer J.
Malone Brewer. “He made the
statement he was glad he didn’t
get the death penalty.”
Appeals are automatic on the
two death sentences.
Brewer had maintained Ake
is insane and should be afforded
mental treatment. He com-
plained his client had to be
controlled by doses of a major
tranquilizer three times a day
even during the trial.
The defense attorney said he
knew the crime and the at-
tention it attracted in the news
media obligated the jury to
avenge the deaths in the har-
shest possible manner.
Assistant District Attorney
Bill James described Ake as a
“ruthless, wanton, calculated
killer” in his closing argument.

charge of the distribution of rice
and other supplies to Cam-
bodians who daily flocked to
Nong Chan from the interior of
the food-short country.
Ashe, 28, was awarded the
Order of the British Empire
earlier this month by Queen
Elizabeth II for his “out-
standing humanitarian work
among Cambodia’s suffering
victims.” He was uniformly
regarded by all who knew him
as one of the most effective
relief officials at the border.
