Ousted Prosecutor
Called as Witness
By Overell Defense
By'the Asjociaitd trni
SANTA ANA, Calif., Aug. 30.—Dis
trict Attorney James L. Davis of
Orange County, who was ousted as
prosecutor of the Overell yacht
deaths trial, was added today to the
j list of witnesses called by the de
fense next week In a new phase of
the long hearing.
Mr. Davis has been ordered to ap
pear with Attorney General Fred
Howser, the man who removed him.
Mr. Howser installed Eugene D.
Williams as special prosecutor. Mr.
Williams had just returned to this
country from Tokyo, where he as
sembled cases against accused Jap
anese war criminals. Mr. Davis has
charged that his removal was oc
casioned by political factors, al
though Police Chief R. R. Hodgkin
son of Newport Beach, where the
Overell yacht blew up, contended in
demanding his replacement that he
was not prosecuting the matter with
sufficient vigor.
Also subpoenaed by the defense is
the city editor of the Los Angeles
Examiner, James H. Richardson.
Letters exchanged in jail between
the two defendants, heiress Louise
Overell, 18, and her fiance, George
Gollum, 21, appeared In the Exam
iner shortly after Mr. Howser took
over. They subsequently were In
troduced in court In slightly abridged
fashion.
Trial of the two young collegians,
accused of murder in the deaths of
Miss Overell’s parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Walter E. Overell, enters its 15th
week Tuesday.
Montevideo, Uruguay, plans to
operate all city transportation lines
by 1954.

for a place to store and exhib
historic planes, Congress on Augui
14, 1946, created the National A
Museum as part of the Smithsor
ian. An advisory board, compose
of two military and two civilia
aeronautical experts, also was s<
up.
The board decided that a Nation
wide check on the historic plant
not now in the museum should b
made. Mr. Garber has been con
ducting the search for the plane
‘Cream of Crop' Saved.
"We have been able to preserv
the cream of the crop,” he sail
d “In the tin shed behind the Smith
t sonian are the first airplane to fly
it around the world, the first to cross
r the Atlantic, and the first to cross
- the continent.”
^ Also saved from destruction were
n representatvies of the "Golden
1 Age” of flying—the "Spirit of St.
Louis," and the "Winnie Mae.” A
- more recent plane is the first jet
s plane ever built in the United
e States, the Bell P-59 Air comet.
"Nobody will ever surpass the
’• Wright brothers and Wiley Post,”
Mr. Garber said. “Their planes, as
e well as other famous models, should
l.! be preserved.”
