A4 YOUTHS GUARDED INWOMAN KILLING Murder of Benefactress Causes High Feeling Against Pair in West. By the /ssoclated Press. PIERRE, S. Dak, May 22.—Two Chicago youths accused of slaying & woman school teacher who befriended them were placed under heavy guard here today as a precaution against possible mob violence. Sheriff Jack Reedy of Sully County hurriedly removed the youths from the Jail at Onida last night because “feel- ing is running high” there. No demon- strations or threats were made but the sheriff said the slaying had caused much excitement, Assistant State Attorney General ‘Ellsworth Evans said the pair, Norman ‘Westberg, 17, and Howard Christenson, 16, confessed fatally shooting and robbing Miss Ada Carey, 26, of Blunt, §. Dak. Sheriff Reedy said they will be charged with murder. Assailants Identified. Miss Carey was driving to her home after completing her year's work at Frankfort, S. Dak, when the boys asked for a ride. She identified her assailants shortly before her death a few hours after the attack. The youths were captured by & hastily formed posse consisting of scores of men armed with rifles and shotguns. Franklyn Hyde, Pierre sportsman who uses an airplane to hunt coyotes, joined in the search from the air. The boys had $6.20 when captured. Miss Carey's purse, containing $10, was found nearby. Evans said the youths confessed they ‘were motiviated by a desire to get the teacher’s money and car so they might continue a trip to California. He said Christenson, sitting in the rear seat of the car, struck Miss Carey three times on the head with a hammer and that Westberg, in the front seat, shot the teacher in the hand and chest. Boys Seen Fleeing. The prosecutor said the boys then put Miss Carey in the rear seat and ‘Westberg drove the car until it over- turned in a ditch. A salesman driving behind the speeding automobile saw the accident and the boys flee on foot. He notified authorities. Both youths at first denied know- ledge of the crime but after they had been identified by Miss Carey, ad- mitted the shooting, Sheriff Reedy said. They declared the shooting was accidental.
