cial centre.The youths mingled and began clowning and eventually two rival gangs started a mock wet rag battle in a deserted ward, | tossing water-soaked cloths at each other.After the youths were dismissed by hospital officials several of the gang leaders apologized for the bad behaviour of their members and a few volunteered to come back later to \u201cdo a real I cleanup job.\u201d Engineer Accepts Blame, Says He Blacked Out Los Angeles \u2014 (A3) \u2014 The an-juished engineer of a train vhich plunged off a slow-order urve at about 70 miles an hour, tilling 29 passengers and injur-ng about 150 othete, has told he district attorney: \"The responsibility is solely nine .1 blacked out .I lidn t know we were going that ast.\u201d The Santa Fe\u2019s two-ear diesel, he San Diegan, tipped off the ails onto its left side Sunday light, 15 minutes after it had eft union station for San Diego, 25 miles south.The 212.000-lound cars spilled some victims hrough windows and crushed (hem ** it slid, roaring and screeching, more than 200 feet.\u201cI vaguely recall seeing an orange grove,\u201d District Attorney S.Ernest Roll said he was also told by the injured engineer, Frank B.Parrish, 61.The reference suggested a mirage, because there are no orange groves in the area, although there are near Parrish's home in nearby San Bernardino.Fireman Homer Smith's version on the tragedy suggested mechanical failure, but engineer Pérrish told the district attorney: \"No.that is not true.It was'my fault completely.\u201d An inquest, with more than 100 witnesses expected to testify, has been set for Feb.3.Ottawa.' \u2014- O\u2019) \u2014 The Supreme Court of Canada in a 5-to-2 decision today said it would dismiss an appeal by Wilbert Coffin, Gas-pe, Que., prospector convicted of murdering a 17-year-old American hunter in June, 1953.The majority opinion, delivered at the request of the federal cabinet is not binding.The court was asked what decision it would have rendered if it had heard Coffin\u2019s appeal in the normal manner.Chief Justice Patrick Kerwin and Mr.Justice Robert Tasche reau, I.C.Rand, R.L.Kellock and Gerald Fauteux would have dismissed the appeal.Mr.Justice C.H.Locke and J.R.Cartwright would have quashed the conviction and ordered a new trial.Reasons for the court\u2019s rejection of a Quebec motion questioning the jurisdiction of the court to hear the federal reference will be given later.The court\u2019s opinion, presumably, will be used by the cabinet in deciding whether to interfere with the death sentence passed on the 44-yearold bushman at Perce, Que., in July, 1954.The court's opinion\u2014which is Seek Delay In Season For Moose Quebec.\u2014-(Pi\u2014 Gerard Lajoie, president of the Quebec Federation of Fish and Game Associa fions, said Monday the federation will continue to ask for a later moose hunting season for the province but fears it unlikely the date set for this year will be changed.Game and Fisheries Minister Pouliot has fixed the 1956 season for Oct.1-10 but the federation says this earlier date will coincide with the last days of the mating season.Federation representatives want the date to remain the same as last year\u2014Oct.15-31\u2014and met with officials of the game and fisheries department last Friday in an attempt to have the date changed.Mr.Lajoie said the government officials were \u201cvery friendly.very understanding.\" Mr.Pouliot is the only one who can set back the season.He is ill in Gaspe at the moment and both parties awaited his ret rn here.When the minister returns, federation officials will seek further discussions on the matter, Mr.Lajoie said.\"We shall continue to ask for a later season and we hope the date will be changed for next year.\u201d I not binding\u2014was requested by the federal cabinet to help it decide whether to interfere with the death sentence.The cabinet may let the sentence be carried out as scheduled Feb.10 al Montreal's Bordeaux jail, commute it to life imprisonment, or order a new trial.Coffin\u2019s conviction was upheld unanimously by the Quebec Court of Appeals.His application for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court was rejected last September by Mr.Justice Douflas Abbott.The cabinet, in an unprecedented action, later referred the case to the Supreme Court for an opinion after Justice Minister Garson was told some members of the court would have granted an appeal if they had heard the application.Mr.Justice Abbott did not sit on hearings on the federal reference.Following the routine procc-idure for government references to the court, the opinion was ; brought down in open court and not given directly to the cabinet.Hunter Richard Lindsey\u2019s bear-gnawed remains were found in July, 1953, in the Gaspe peninsula bush along with those of his father, Eugene Lindsey, 47, and Albert Claar, 20.Quebec provincial police described their deaths as \"Quebec\u2019s most gruesome murder case.\u201d They claimed Coffin ambushed the three hunters and shot them to steal more than S600 the cider Lindsey was known to have with him.His empty wallet was WILBERT COFFIN A 5 1o 2 vote found in a river bed near his body.A gasoline pump for the hunters' truck, a hunting knife, a valise containing clothing and a pair of binoculars-all belonging to the hunting party which enter-;ed the Gaspe bush June 9, 1953 -were traced to Coffin's posses-jsion by police.Coffin said last October in a statement issued through his lawyers that he received $40 from the hunters for driving young Lindsey to Gaspe village, 65 miles from the murder scene, to i buy a new gas pump for the truck.He maintained he is innocent of the murder, though he readily admitted stealing some of the hunters\u2019 effects.Chicoutimi Accident Kills 4, Injures 3 CHICOUTIMI, Que.\u2014 (CP) \u2014 A coroner's court: inquiry was to be opened today into the death of four persons in a two-car collision near this northeastern Quebec centre Monday.Three persons are in hospital with injuries.A car driven by a travelling salesman met in a head-on collision on a snow-covered highway with another ear bearing six people \u2014 a mother and two children from Hamilton, Ont., their grandparents and a great-uncle.The salesman, Marcel Trem-~\t.blay, 32.of Laterriere, Quo., and, sC('n*\u2019- Iremblay, l-ortin and lilt e three of the others were killed !

Experimental Farm in Ottawa told the convention some success has been obtained in breeding new varieties of apples.He said 21 new-type seedlings developed at the farm have been selected as possible commercial varieties Plan Crackdown On Ont.Plates Ottawa-\u2014Quebec provincial police yesterday announced launching of a systematic check for cars bearing Ontario licence plates but owned by Quebec residents.Streets of nearby Hull and other district towns will be checked and Quebec residents caught with Ontario plates will be prosecuted, police said.Police said some Quebec residents bought Ontario plates to avoid paying Quebec car insurance rates\u2014nearly double those in Ontario\u2014Quebec\u2019s two-per-cent sales tax on automobiles and Quebec licence, fees which arc higher than Ontario's.They gave false Ontario addresses when they applied at Ontario licence offices.Today's Chuckle \u201cDid you know that the Red So* are going to change their name?\u201d \"What are they going to change it to?\" \u201cTo Nylons \u2014 so they can I get more runs.\u201d » smaller i«x cuis than otherwise IQ5b -
