"There's very little interracial slaying." 'This also shows the importance of giving somebody a stake in society," he said. "In violent crime, where an offender doesn't feel that he has anything to lose, it's very difficult to come up with deterrence." "I think peoplesee it in the'paper, see that it's not in their neighborhood, in the central city, and not worry about it," he said. "We cannot call ourselves civilized if we allow this.

"Tht uinfpr nf IQSfLI 1 Hnn't ihinlr anurvnA thrtnnht Man's body found on Lake Superior beach SUPERIOR, Wis. (AP) A person out for a walk on the beach found the body of a dentist missing since he and his fiancee disappeared while flying a light plane from Duluth, to Cable in northern Wisconsin in April. Douglas County Sheriff Marvin Arneson said the body of Joseph Kuth, 40, of Duluth was found Sunday on the Lake Superior shore east of U.S. 53. He was identified by the wallet found in his clothing.

The body of Kuth's fiancee, JoAnn Forman, 38, of Canosia (Minn.) Township, was found less than a week after the airplane apparently sank in Lake Superior April 17. The couple had told friends they planned to dine at Telemark Lodge at Cable, but the last contact with the aircraft was when it was cleared for takeoff from Duluth International Airport Kuth's red and white single-engine amphibian' Lake brand aircraft has not been recovered.

CAPTURED IN LATE 1950, the Army corporal from Neenah marched with hundreds of other American soldiers II' to a prison camp called Death Valley, arriving on Christmas Eve.

For the next 30 months, there were two constants in Siebert's life: hunger and the specter of death. It wasn't until 1952 that Siebert realized he might survive because "there were so damn many dead they had to keep the rest of us alive to show that everybody didn't die." Siebert was approaching his third year as a prisoner when negotiators in Panmunjom finally signed the ceasefire agreement in July 1953 that ended the war. Siebert, who told of his imprisonment in the detached manner of one who long ago came to terms with the experience, said he wasn't searching for some sort of catharsis at the convention.
