Maybe For 1941 They’l1 Prefer Type of Blond

Bv ROBBIN COONS Associated Press Staff Writer

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 2B -AP1 - Maybe it's early to predict, but 1941 seems to have the making of a blond year.

Now 19,40. as you know, was de- finitely brunette. It was a 12-month shadowed. in the movies. by the raven tresscs of One Hcdy Iamarr; a. year that saw Jcan Bennett, long o, dazzling blond, emerge with hair as dark as Hcdy's- -even darker; and a year that let Ginger Rogers desert the ranks of reddish blonds fora fling as a dark brownette. Even Ido Lupino, famed for dizzy- lng ‘blondness, suddenly went

k.

All this, obviously. was o reaction from the previous hair fad set by the late Jenn Harlow. The pendu- lum swung away from platinum blond to rich brunette.

New lt is swinging back to blond- ness, Anita 103s, author of "Gentle men Pcfer Blonds" just about makes it official. She reportsz.

“Along with those gentlemen who still prefer blonds I want to rejoice at the news- -bloiids are coming buck in Hollywood. The swing a few months ago was toward the mven-tressed ladies. Setlous times and e. period of serious thoughts were probably as much the cause as anything else. Times are till ser- ious- -even moine so. But now the blonds with their light-hearted ga-iety are undoubtedly more 1n de- mand."

SOME EXAMPLES

Martha. Scott, considered by many to be the new year's most promtsirg star, is a. reddish-golden blon . Betty Grablo, up-and-coming again. is a golden gi.l. Virginia Dale, shapely song-and-dfmcc comedienne from Charlotte, N. C.. has hair as yellow as a canary.

Rita. Hayworth naturailyibrunetw. turned "strawbery blond" for the movie of that time. and is think- ing about iema-lnlng blond. Joan Leslie. interesting starlet of "Ii-Sh Sierra." is o. reddish-golden blond. ‘Ilheres also Lana ‘Purncr who is considered sure to take c, 8P0‘- llght for "Ziegfeld Girl "and Lama's as blond a5 they come. Marie Wilson, back in films with "Virﬂln- la," strikes a blond note along with Madeleine Carroll, star of the ple-

ure.

Add these to Hollywood's already famous blonds- -Anne Neagle Una Merkel Marlene Dietrich. Bette Davis. Perry Singleton, Garbo, Alice Faye, Virginia Bruce, Arm Sothem "and you'll see that the fair of hair will c up o bottle. It least for 194 honors over the brunettes.

ladies Auxiliary

0f Canadian Legion llave successful year

The Ladies Auxiliary to the Cen- adian Legion, Summerside Branch, held their 6th annual meeting on

ay and the reports show that the year had been a successful one especially with regard to the work accomplished for the soldiers. Mrs. B. W. Robinson the retiring presi- dent occupied the chair and gave n. comprehensive report of the year's work. Reviewing the Auxlliorys activities for the yieor, Mrs. Rubi-n- son said that the Auxiliary had as- sisted very materially the Summer- sicie Branch in the War Service drive in February. In March they had formed a knitting Club, which met at the homes of the member». This club had made well over 200, pairs of socks, which had been dis- tributed equally between the P. E. I. Highlanders and the Red Cross. Besides this the Auxiliary had sent the Red Crass sweaters. carves, hel- mets. eto. The members had also sent. knitted articles to individual soldiers. In August the Auxiliary assisted with the National Regis- tration survey. In September they held a very vuccessful pantry sale and in October an afternoon tea. was held at the home of the Presi- dent to aid the Red Cross. The poppy sale in November was most successful and surpassed any pre- Ylm-B year. There were not so many call. on the auxiliary for assistance to needy families as iii the past, but. some contributions were made in the way. The auxiliary old not assist the Dental Clinic, which they had contributed to at its inception, as the need was not so great this year and the Government had car- ried on alone. The auxiliary \\‘ ' grateful for this, as their fund - taken up with war" work. In 2i .- ing the president wished her suc- cessor every success in the coming year. M Neil R.

be instructed to brin in an ac- quittal on the groun the Crown had not made l. "prlma facic" case.

The defence put no witnesses on the stand.

Mr. Johnston, addressing the jury on behalf of the Crown, ex- plained the duties of counsel for the Crown and the jury. He urged t-he jurlors to bring in a "conscientious verciic ."

He explained the nature of the charge and the three verdicts pos- slble-murcler, manslaughter and acquittal.

Continuing, Mr. Johnston mentioned the procedure in a care of an insanity plea.

I-Ie sold the Crown must prove the "corpus deilcti." In this case the death has been proved. It was also proved that Isidore Doucetto diezi by violence The evidence of the doctors brought this out

Mr Johnston then reviewed the evidence given by the various wit- nesses. It was disclosed that the wounds found on the body of Mrs. Jeremiah Doucette corresponded with those found on the body nf the deceased.

Continuing he described the ha/p- benlngs at Jeremiah Doucettes house that, night of July l3.

If the wound had been self in- flicted or caused accidently the. instrument would surciv have been found there. he pointed out.

A tremendous amount of coincid- ences took place all pointing o. finger at the prisoner. he added. This was such an unusual and un- necessary crime it would be diffi- cult to find a motive for it.

Ir R. R. Bell

Mr. Bell, addressing, the jurv for defence, pointed out the serious- ness of the ca e.

He referred to his application for acquittal made earlier. The Crown had not proved that the prisoner caused Isidore Doucettes death.

Continuing, Mr. Bell said there was no evidence to show that the accused was there when Isidore Doucette came to his death. The Crown was at c "loss to find a mo- live for the c nic.

Coun el for tho defence went on to describe tire conduct of the ac- uscd and deceased on the night of the tragedy.

Reviewing the evidence. he said that only one of the \vitiics=es had told of seeing a knife at the home of the grandmother. "If there was a threat made against a man there, wlrv wasnt lie produced as a wit- ness by the Crown." he inquired.

Mr Bell said there was neither the evidence of an eye-ivitne s nor circumstantial evidence to prove that the accused was guilty of the

mind that a chain is no atro er than its weakest link. I also wsh to remind you if all the Links in the crcumstantlal chain are flaw- less. hen I may tell you entle- men t has often been said t at, in o oeroin sense, you can never get better evidence hon circumstan- tial evidence, because facts do not lie as human beings sometimes do. he continued.

"Gentlemen, you and I have ob-

case there has been no undue

resslng of an point by those en- grusted with the duty of watching over the interests of the country's justice; or no neglect of counsel who has been engaged in defend- ing the interests of the prisoner. In this most important case you may rest assured I will endeavour to hold an even balance. My fort will be to not press unduly any point beyond what I consider its legitimate bounds. In my suin- motion of the evidence submitted in this case I feel constrained to soy at the very outset that. there are some very striking and impor- tant pieces of evidence that are hard for me to understand. These facts and circumstances, these nieces of evidence, I will endeavour bring to your attention as best I possibly can. in order to assist you in arriving at a satisfactory conclusion," the Court said.

Duty of Council

Continuing he stated that, “it is true the duty of the Crown coun- sel ls not to unduly press any mat- ter. The duty oi any public pro- secutor or tho Attorney General is to resent all things fairly. This I fee sure has been done in this case. If I were to pass judgment! might be inclined to say if they erred at all it was on the side of caution. The duty of counsel for the accused is to do the very best he can for his client. 1t may and possiblv Wlll be said the two speech- es addresscd to you by counsel are more or less controversial. Even the trial judge, no matter how fairly he may be endeavouring to present the fact-s when the weight or balance ofcvicicnce is in a par- ticular direction, and when the trial judge emphasizes such evi- dence, even he may be considered as biasscd. Especially is this true. as in a case like the present. ivhen the evidence submitted is from one side only.

"I want to assure you gentlemen I have a judicial duty tu perform. It 1s far from a pleasant one. I will not shrink from doing mv full out)‘ as I see it. I hope that it may be clone in a most fair and irri- parttal manner. I may tell you further it is the practice of a judge to silggcst to the jury thing: -which occur to his own mind up- on the evidence, and I shall do so in the course of my observations; but I do it with this remark to you, that what I have to say as a inat- ter of observation is said not dlolﬂtc t0 you. but solely for the purpose of assisting you in arriv- ing at your verdict. You of course may give some weight to what is said. coming from a person, the business cf whose life it has been to study such cases, to see how they ought to be treated. and to notice the points of them. and to see which points tell for or against

apparently smaller according to the evidence, he added.

The facts that were disclosed were con istent with the innocence of the accused, counsel for the de- fence stated. .

The man could not be convicted mi suspicion, Mr. Bell told the jurors.

Ho said he was not making a plea for sympathy on behalf of the accused but was confident the jury would find from the evidence that was no evidence to show a motive he was diserving of acquittal. There for o. crime, he concluded.

Mr. Jllstice Saundcrc

"It now becomes my duty to ad- dress you on this most exce tion- ally important case," Mr. ustice saunders said in his charge to the jury. "We are now coming to the close of this very unfortunate casc which is as you know one ure- ly of circumstantial evl erice. There is no direct evidence of the crime. Everything depends upon inference to be drawn. In a Coco llke.this where the evidence is purely circumstantial, if every link m the chain of circumstances is a sound link. and is well welded into the next, there can be no stronﬂel‘ case than that. Circumstantial evidence always requires the mo careful and thorough consider- ation in order to be sure that in passing along the chain oil'- cumstantlal links which make up

st, cessary

the pTlSOIIEI‘. But always remember you are the final arbiters of the facts. what I say to you may or may not be accepted by you or it may be accepted in a modified form. Gentlemen you are the sole judges of the facts. You may if you wish completely disregard every- thing I say respecting the facts of the case. The law in regard to the case you will accept from me." the Court said and read the indict- ment against the prisoner.

Meaning of Murder

Continuing he said, "as the Crown Counsel has very well said, we all know fairly well what mur- der means. Junior Counsel, in opening the case read from the Code, and I will read it again:

1. Homicide may be either cul- pable or not culpable.

2. Homicide is culpable when it consists in the killing of any per- son, either by an unlawful act. or by an omission, without lawful ex- cuse to perform or observe any legal dut . or by both combined, or by causing a person, by threats or fear of violence, or by decep- tion. to do an act which caused that person's death. or by wilfully frightening a child or sick per-

son.

3. Culpable homicide is either murder or manslaughter."

"Now entlemen, it will be ne- or me to glance at some events preceding the unfortunate trosedy. It ls up to the Crown to establish its case; otherwise your verdict. should be one of not guilty.

It will not do for the crown to point into the dark and} 53y ‘unless you the prisoner throw light into t_at darkness you must be held to nave been engaged in crime.’ The business of the Crown in this case is to throw the light which will enable you and me t0_ see.

Judge's Duty

Continuing hc said. "it is my duty to put before ou as minute- ly, and certainly wllth 8 11186118 w make it as accurate as I can—the evidence. What then is the evi- dence in this case? In short, what are the facts of this case? I will describe in detail facts about which there can be no doubt; facts the tendency and im ortl of’ which ls for you to determ ne.

'I'he Court then reviewed in de- tail all the evidence presented by the different witnesses during the course of the trial pointing out the series of events which led up to the tragedy. l-Ie started with the| evidence given bv Alan McKinnon who said he ha gone with the accused to Mrs. Catherine Dou- =cette's house that night. Cn way they met Isidore who accom-

to the drinking which witness said took place there and which was‘ later corroborated by Mrs. Willard , Dunn.

The times mentioned by Mc- Kinnon were later verified by Mrs. ‘ Edith Garnhum whose evidence. disclosed that Jeremiah and Isi-. _dore were still together at 1:4» am. l on the morning of July l4. l"? continued. _ ‘

The evidence given hv Miss Mary Malone was particularly lMDFGSFlYCI to the Court She told of lll"<ll‘ll‘lfZ‘ Jeremiah Daucetres voice mumb-‘ llflq’ in the hall at his house and also a deeper YOICP. Sire had also stated she heard Jeremiah and his ivife having words in the kitchen. This witness had heard a man rim‘ past. her window then lighter" steps.‘ Evidence ‘tract disclosed that. the: (lcceaserl was lying at the corner of the house. > ‘

Continuing he said that he had not been deeply impressed with the evidence given bv HenryGauthienl He did not think this witness was; telling the truth when he said her land not recognized the mnn who ran across the street when he

The rlsoner was there and still up athough it was about. five o'clock in the morning.

He said that the demeanor 0f Mrs. Catherine Doucette on the stand was “the most pathetic ex- hibition he ever saw in this or any other Court." She was the mother of the unfortunate man who was killed and the grandmother of the accused yet she was laughing. gig ll and having a great deal

of evl y.

Contlnuin the Court said he was going o rush through her evidence as “he did not attach much credence or weight to what she said." Briefly reviewing her statements he told of her ing to Jeremiahs house and hav ng said she “talked around it. He hinted out that there was a boar fence at the place which would prevent n. person from walking around the house. "To me she relates some of the most incredible things," he

added. A Motive
