Admits Murder. Ten Years Ago

LONDON (Reuters) - Adam

' Ogilvie. 82-year-old laborer, made

legal history here Wednesday by pleading guilty to an unsolved murder committed to years ago

Ogilvie changed his plea from use of not guilty after being formally charged incourt with murdering Mrs. olive Michele Nixon, 57-year-old widow of a Malayan rubber planter, near Iondon's Regents Park.

Mrs. Nixon, church ,worker. was struck down within 100 yards of her home on a foggy November night in 1946 as she returned from a church meeting.

The crime was apparently mo- tiveless and the inquest verdict on Mrs. Nixon was "murder by some person or persons unknown."

Police told Wednesday's court that Ogilvie had made a written statement which would be pro-

duced later.
