three Americans and seven Vietnamese apd a score of persons in-
jured.
REV. RALPH ABERNATHY and an estimated 160 other dem-
onstrators were arrested yesterday as they attempted to march
to the Choctaw County Courthouse in Butler, Ala.
The march was in defiance of an anti-demonstration injunction.
Witnesses said the marchers gathered at a church about one mile
from the courthouse square where a black demonstrator, Margaret
Knott, 19, was struck and killed by a car Saturday during a sit-in at
an intersection there.
The arrests were in addition to 41 others who were taken into
custody during the morning after disturbances at three boycotted
Butler area schools.

draft bill status
today in key vote
WASHINGTON UP) - A key vote is expected today in the
Senate on a bill combining two-year draft extension with
the most costly military pay raise, ever proposed.
Opposing sides seemed uncertain yesterday of the out-
come of the vote on a motion to table and thus kill the bill
worked out over a period of five weeks by a Senate-House
conference committee.
The House already has approved the bill, and J o h n
Stennis, (D-Miss.), chairman of the Senate Armed Services
Committee, said that if the Senate rejects it, the result may
be no draft bill and no

But the report added the AEC
could not rule out the possibility
of a quake.
It also said there was not much
chance the test would create
large tidal waves, harm wildlife
or release radioactive material
into the atmosphere.
However, Sen. Mike Gravel, .D-

organization this week that five
of the seven federal agencies ad-

matters have opposed the test.
Opposition to the test also has
been expressed by a U.S. nuclear

Witness
to testify
forl edina
FT. McPHERSON, Ga. UP) -
The military judge in Capt. Er-
nest Medina's murder trial, re-
versing a previous decision, ruled
yesterday that the jury may hear
a key defense witness recount a
conversation in which Lt. William
Calley Jr. spoke of My Lai.
Capt. Robert Hicks of Ft. Ben-
ning, Ga., had tesitfied in the ab-
sence of the jury, saying Calley
told him that Medina knew noth-
ing of Calley's actions at My
Lai.
The prosecution objected to
this testimony as hearsay and Col.
Kenneth Howard, the military
judge, initially sustained the ob-
j ection.
But after a two-hour meeting
with the defense, Howard said he
had been persuaded to allow Hicks
to appear before the jury.
In another ruling, Howard held
that the jury could not hear the
testimony of Capt. Eugene Ko-
touc, an intelligence officer ac-
quitted earlier this year of maim-
ing a Viet Cong suspect after the
My Lai attack.
Kotouc had indicated he would
testify that he had advised Me-
dina on methods of interrogating
prisoners.
The prosecution objected.
The 35-year-old Medina, of
Montrose, Colo., is accused of as-
saulting a Viet Cong suspect by
firing a rifle over his head, shoot-
ing a wounded woman as she lay
in a rice paddy outside My Lai,
ordering the shooting of a boy,
and of murder in the deaths of
102 civilians.
The infantryman was in com-
mand of Charlie Company when
the unit, whose platoon leaders
included Calley,attacked My Lai
on March 16, 1968.
