Rupprecht, 86;
Bavaria Prince
STARNBERG, Germany, Aug.
2 (A*).—Crown Prince*Rupprecht.
86, pretender to the Bavarian
throne, died today at Leustetten
Castle, the family seat.
A priest administered the last
rites of the Roman Catholic
church last night. The prince
had suffered a heart attack dur
ing the week end.
Millions of Bavarians were
grieved by Rupprecht’s critical
illness. A field marshal in World
War n and an enemy of Hitler
In the Third Reich, he had be
come a revered symbol of “the
good old days.” His throne was
toppled by a Socialist revolution
in 1918.
When the July 20 bomb plot
against Hitler failed in 1944,
I Rupprecht’s wife, the late Crown
Princess Antoinie of Luxembourg,
jwas imprisoned in the Buchen
jwald concentration camp. His
eldest feon, Archduke Albrecht,
also was arrested. But Rup
precht himself evaded the Ges
tapo. hid for nearly two months,
and then gave himself up to
allied troops in Italy.
In recent years, Rupprecht of
ten remarked that “only a re
turn to democratic monarchy
can lead our people upward.”
He said a re-established Bava
' rian kingdom “could have its!
j place within a true German
'federated state.”
j The Crown Prince shunned
; direct contact with all political
j parties. He refused to sanction
jthe “league of king and home
land,” founded by a small mon
archist faction in 1949.

Sunset Carson
Draws Sentence
PADUCAH, Ky„ Aug. 2 UP
Sunset Carson, former Holly
wood western star, was fined SSOO
and given six months in jal!
yesterday for contributing to
delinquency of minors.
Fined $250 on the same charge
was Mrs. Helen May Besserud,
mother of four children with
whom Carson allegedly had been
living.
Neither defendant appeared in
McCracken County Court and a
SSOO bond for Carson was for
feited.
The woman’s husband, Ches
ter Raymond Besserud, obtained
a warrant last Thursday for the
arrest of Carson and Mrs. Besse
rud. Officers arrested the two at
nearby Lone Oak, apparently as
they prepared to leave town.
Carson, who returned to
prominence with the showing of
his films on TV, has been mak
ing night club appearances in
West Kentucky and Southern
Illinois.
State and local police were
looking for Carson, but they
theorized he was out of the State
by now. He cannot be extra
dited on the charge, thus the
conviction can be carried out on
ly if he is arrested in Kentucky.
Argument Stalls
Trial of Ex-POW
NEW YORK, Aug. 2 UP— An
argument over the Army’s right
to try a former Brooklyn pris
oner of war in Korea stalled his
court martial yesterday for 46
hours.
Sergt. James C. Gallagher. 24,
is accused of slaying three fellow
American prisoners, the first ex
prisoner tried for an actual
prison camp death.
The defense said Sergt. Gal
lagher’s honorable discharge on
October 27, 1933, wiped out the
Army’s interest in any acts he
committed before that date, even
though he re-enlisted the next
day.
"Once the Army gave him the
certificate it lost jurisdiction
over offenses committed in the
first term of enlistment.” said
[Lt. Col. William B. Walsh, the
defense lawyer.
The prosecution contended
Sergt. Gallagher never was com
pletely released from the Army
and was subject at all times to
military authority.
Court recessed until tomorrow
to consider the question of juris
jdiction.
