Hubbard’s LIFE IN PRISON FOR WAR VETERAN Indianan Who Murdered Two Sons Sentenced Valparaiso, Ind., May 29 (®P—Life imprisonment will be George Allen Chisholm’s punishment for the slay- ing of his two small son: Superior Court Judge Crumpack- er, who passed sentence on the 35- year-old Canadian World War vet- eran lute yesterday, spoke of the Lerime as the worst for which a man ! ever had stood on trial before him. He refused the state’'s plea for the death penalty, however, saying that “noe man could do as Chisholm did and be normal.” Chisholm, broken and feeble, | heard the verdict in silence. Arrest- ed March 3, the father confessed he had induced his sons, Edgar, 7, and George, 9, to drown themselves in a canal at East Chicago. He said he had planned a similar fate for Rob- ert, a twin to Edgar. He promised the boys they would see their grand- mother when he led them to the river, but Robert did not accom- | pany them, saying he did not care |about going to “grandma’s.” The Indiana law does not admit a plea if insanity.
