TOMSHARANE | GBTS RETRIAL Supreme Court Reverses Deci- sion of Grand Forks Coun- ty District Court Timothy Shahane will have a new trial on a charge of killing his father at their home in Pembina county fhe supreme court has ruled here. A jury had convicte® the youth of sec- ond degree murder. _ Reversing the Grand Forks county district court, the supreme court held that the trial court erred at th: first trial when it permitted th’ state to show the general reputatior of the deceased as a law-abidin: man. Such testimony is incompe- tent and prejudicial, the supremc court held, when it is offered to dis- prove specific acts of cruelty anc violence which were alleged to havc occurred in the Shahane home prio: to Timothy J. Shsahane’s death. Evidence as shown on the record of the case was that the younger Shahane killed his father by stab. bing him with a knife. The youth who had been ill, claimed that th act was one performed in his owr defense and in defense of his mothe: whom his father was attacking. Young Shahane is said to still suffering from tuberculosis . and when argument was made to the su-, preme court in the present case his counsel expressed the opinion that he had not long to live. The case was tried in Grand Forks county on a change of venue from Pembina county.

Costello is approximately 135 miles from Baldonnel Airdrome, the plane’s starting point. | _ Belfast, April 12—(AP)—So far as known, the last glimpse of the German plane Bremen caught off the coast of Ireland -on her flight to New York was at 7:30 a. m. when civic guards west of Carna in Galway saw the plane passing over Slyne Head, the most westerly point of Connaught.
