SEES MOSCOW AFFECTED BY COMMUNIST FERMENT SOON Moscow may be the ..ext .Com- munist capital to be affected by the satellite ferment, says Can- adian reporter William Stevenson, cabling an uncensored report from Hong Kong. Stevenson, the world -travelled Star Weekly feature -writer who is an expert on Soviet policy, has just completed a tour which took him across the length and breadth of the Soviet Union. Everywhere he noticed a spirit of change and reawakening. Dislike of the new leaders, Bul- ganin and Khrushchev is apparent, he says. There are also signs of great stirring among the youth of the country. 'News of world opin- ion is reaching Russia and in turn is moulding a new domestic opin- ion. William Stevenson's full report appears in this week's issue of The Star Weekly. B. R.

The eon i lainaut, Donald Glou- sher, who 'ves halfway between Auburn and B1$h, told, Magistrate D. E. Holmes that he was assaulted here on: the night .,of January 30. After hearing several witnesses, the magistrate registered convict= tiens against Lyle Thurlow, 17, Fred MohrTinng, 18, and Joe Allison, $r., 19, all of Goderich. They Were remanded to Jail, with instructions that they be +brought 'back to court today for sentencing. The magistrate found that this was one of those puzzling assaults which seem to have no provocation. He was inclined to attribute the offenders' actions to "an egotistical feeling .that they rule the earth." He further commented that while there have been fights and scuffles in this district before there has been "nothing to equal what has been taking place here for the last few months." Cites Other Cases As proof, he pointed to such incidents as the car -bumping case which was aired in court a few months ago. If "gang tactics" persist, he warned, they will be met with stiffer sentepces. Mohring pleaded guilty to the charge orf assault occasioning bod- ily harm, but the other two youths claimed they had not taken part in the actual assault. Dr. J. R. Leitch testified that he examined Glousher and found him to have suffered a bruised lip and a cut above his left eye -brow. When Glousher took the stand himself, he exhibited a tarn suit coat and •a shirt on which there were blood stains. Tolle assault ';* PERSON 000�0000000 Sey CSLARKP, JAMB:OR'EE`'` okoiocKLiwo-'. ,.

It appeared that one, later identi- fied as Thurlow, had been the roarer owner of Glouslne.r's car. This youth announced that he was going to take the sideview mirror off the vehicle. Glousher testified that he was pulled out of his seat and "clob- bered," as he Phrased it. "'I1wo of them held me, and the big fellow poked," he explained. "They got the side mirror and tore my suit and shirt." :Further details of the assault were given the court by David Gower, 16, James Vint, 15, and Frank Sallolws, 14. They, along with two girls, had been passeng- ers in Glousher's car. The Sallows 'boy stated that, after the assault, "Fred Maiming said, 'Don't say too much or we'll be back again'." Testifying in his own defence, Allison admitted there had been some drinking before the incident. Asked if the whole idea was to get the mirror off the Glousher car, Thurlow denied this. He said that he and his companions "just wanted to see the women in the car.'; The weekly police court was at- tended by 120 'persons, including court officials, police, accused per- sons, witnesses and spectators. 0 Cr O Huron County Farm Report By A. S. Bolton, Asst. Ag. Rep. Lads Regard Jail As Joke; One Gets Reformatory Term A one-night spree of breaking and entering led to a reformatory term for Karl Whitfield, 22, of R.R. 1, Blyth. In Goderich court last Thursday, he was sentenced to six ninths, plus six months in- definite, en each of three charges. The sentences' were concurrent. The magistrate placed Lorne 4loggart, 16, of Blyth, and John Fangrad, 19, of R.R. 1, Londesboro, cin suspended sentence for two years on condition they make resti- tution and pay court costs. Earlier, they hid pleaded guilty to the same charges as did Whitfield. The trio admitted three offences on the night of February 5. ,They broke into Allen's feed mill. at Londesboro, the Travis feed mill at Walton and attempted to break into Brown's store at Kinburn. The proprietor of the Londesboro mill estimated his loss at $6-$8, but the youths netted only 40 ,or 50 cop- pers at the Walton mill. Before passing sentence, the magistrate told the youths, "The report from the jail is you have been taking this thing as a joke, rather than seriously." In announcing the reformatory term for Whitfield, Magistrate Holmes explained that, after con- sidering a thorough report on the youth, he did not feel that pro- bation would have any effect. "Mean Theft" Two 19 -year-old Wingham dis- trict youths, who admitted stealing 21 pigs from two farmers, were re- manded another week for sentence. Magistrate Holmes said, how- ever, he would release Charles E. Bosman and Lawrence E; Cameron in the care of the probation officer providing the farmers who lost the pigs would attend the next court to give their open consent to pro- bation. At the same time the magistrate felt the youths had committed "a inean theft," stealing the unguard- ed pigs and then carting them of to sale barns at Clinton and Lis- towel. was not so many years ago in our owar - We ,t---tlat_ -if._ -a----Incase stole. cattle, it was 'String him up'!" 0 0 0 One hundred and fifty-four farm- ers have been in attendance at four of the six.
