Three Girls, Held in Assault
On Youth, Disrupt Hearing
By th« Associated Press
PROVIDENCE, R. I., May 15.—
The case of three teen-age girls
accused of forcing a man to be
intimate with one of them was
closed today—but not before they
created a bedlam after juvenile
court proceedings.
Because the girls are minors,
the disposition of their case must
remain secret under State law.
The rumpus they caused, how
ever, was no secret to anyone
nearby, court attaches said.
fhe girls elbowed the attend
ants, shouted jibes at spectators
and loudly protested being re
strained when taken from their
cell to the courtroom yesterday.
Two of the three were in tears
while being returned to the cell,
but once together again they
pounded the walls, insulted deputy
sheriffs, sang love ballads and
yelled repeatedly “we’re going back
to Oaklawn.”
Oaklawn School is a State insti
tution where wayward girls may
be committed for their minority.
They were brought into court
after Everett P. Amaral, 21, told
police the three girls hitch-hiked
a ride with him, ordered him to
the rear seat and then, at knife
point, forced him to have inter
course with one of them. He was
not in court yesterday.

cancer after all.

giving Korean veterans all hos

servicemen.
Yesterday doctors reported Mr.
Arellano was suffering from gran

The prospect of death is, of course, not a
pleasant one. Yet, because death conies to
all of us, it is wise to be prepared. One
detail of this preparation is the pre-need
selection of a family burial estate in the
established cemetery of your choice. It
should consist of a plot of sufficient size
for family requirements.
Your selection is made under the best possible
conditions when you choose as a family ...
and before need. An intelligent decision,
as the result of calm deliberation, will prove
a life-long satisfaction to all.
Our five-year purchase plan simplifies the
financial problem.
