START SELECTING HICKMAN JURORS (Continged from First Page) of the indictment with no change of | expression on his pale face. A statement from Keyes that Hickman had automatically admitted the crime by entering a plea of not guilty on the grounds of insanity brought an objection from Walsh. The objection was overruled with- out hesitation. Judge Trabucco then gave brief instructions on procedure, and the fight over seelction of the 13 jurors who will determine Hickman's san- ity was on. The defense challenged a tales- man for cause. After considerable debate between the opposing attorneys, the chal- ten:e was allowed and another man ntered the box. Almost without exception the first * prospective jurors called indicated they had formed dpinions on the case through reading the newspapers and discussing the case with friends. ~Hickman sat unmoved. . Only when the words “death pen- alty” were repeated in the argument @id he show {interest. ‘Then he appeared to slouch deep- . €r in his chair. Four of the 12 first called to the jury box were women. It wus indicated early in the pro- ceedings that the selection of a )ury“ probably would be a long task. The defense fought cvery step of the way to gain advantages for the youthful criminal, A. J. Bell, who sald he seldom read newspaper editorials, was ques- tioned at great length by Walsh. i Walsh read a long list of questions | covering the grounds of prejudice | and Bell's interest in the case, Bell said he had followed the case only casually in the newspapers. He had formed no opinion as to Hick- man's guilt or innocence, he said. At no time had he even discussed the case with any one but his wife, Bell sald. i At the conclusion of the question- | ing, the juror was challenged for cause and Judge Trabucco overruled | the challenge. The court then suggested the members of the jury panel be ques- tioned collectively in view of the fact that Walsh was reading the same list | of questions to all. | Defense Attorney Cantillon said | that unless the suggestion was a flat | court order, the defense would con- tinue to put the questions to cach talesman individually. i Judge Trabucco told the defense | to go ahead with the questioning in- dividually but to proceed as rapidly | as possible. A few moments later Judge Trabueco ordered that certain ques- | tions pertaining to discussion of the | case and the formation of opinions should be put collectively. | The confessed kidnaper and| slayer of little Marion Parker ap- peared to be only slightly cheere however, by the victory his attor- ney had won in removing Judge | Carlos Hardy from the bench on the | grounds of prejudice, | Is | | | | | “I know they are going to hang me,” Hickman said. “Come on let's | have it over with.” 8o far as Hick- man himself was concerned he was certain he wouid be sent to the gal- lows as quickly by J. J. Trabucco, the new judge, as by Judge Hardy. When Jerome Walsh, Hickman's| youthful attorney, took exception to | Judge Hardy on the grounds that he was unqualified to give the; killer a fair trial because he had | presided at the preliminary hearing, | he told the court he had no desirc to delay the proceedings. { 20 Hours Respite | Callfornia justice took Walsh at| his \word today, a scant 20 hours after Justice Hardy had consented to remove himself from the case, Hickman was due back in court facing the same almost overwhelm- ing odds against escaping exccution for his erime. Judge Trabucco was appointed by presiding Judge Vic- tor McLucas. ‘When Hickman pleaded not guilty om the grounds of insanity he vir- tually threw away all chance of * tresdom. About the best he could hepe for was commitment to an in- vane asylum. The worst was hang- ing. Hardy Very Fair Although their was some surprise smong attorneys that Walsh should l'ave won his point of exception to Judge Hardy so easily, it was point- +d out that Hardy desired to leave 1o doubt in the public mind as to the falrness of the trial. Also the 1act that he stepped aside removed one ground on which an appeal | 1night be demanded in event of con- vietion. Courthouse Crowded | ‘The usual guard surrounded the courthouse early today to handle the crowds which were certain to! zather as soon as they learned that the trial was to begin in earnest. I"'ewer women turned out to see the . rotorious killer, however, than on the first day when they were disap- vointed by jail guards who escorted Hickman into the court room by a | rear entrance. 5 Mother Tells of Son.
