THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Three Boyle denies he ordered murder .0 I MEDIA, Pa. () - Former United Mine Workers President Tony Boyle denied yesterday he was involved in the murder of Joseph "Jock" Yablonski, his rival for UMW supremacy. Boyle, 72, testifying in his own defense at his murder trial, also denied he had ever talked to William Turnblazer or Albert Pass about having Yablonski murdered. TURNBLAZER, the prosecu- tion's star witness, testified Mon- day that Boyle ordered the mur- der during a meeting involving him and Pass. "Did you have anything to do w i t h the murders?" asked Boyle's lawyer, Charles Moses. "Absolutely not," Boyle re- sponded in a loud voice. EARLIER, a former UMW of- ficial who has confessed to hir- ing the three men convicted of killing Yablonski, testified he had originally been approached about killing another man. Silhouse Huddleston, 65, for- mer president of UMW Local 3228 in LaFollette, Tenn., was the opening witness for the de- fense in Boyle's trial. Boyle, who was identified in court Monday as the man who personally ordered the slaying of his union rival, was scheduled to be the first witness. HOWEVER, CHARLES Moses, chief defense counsel, called Huddleston as his opening wit- ness after a 35-minute confer- ence in the chambers of Com- mon Pleas Court Judge Francis Defense witness' account casts new doubts on Mitchell's role Catania. Huddleston, who has pleaded guilty to murder and confessed part in the plot, said he met in the spring of 1969 with William Prater and Albert Pass to dis- cuss the killing of a man named Ted Wilson of Winfield, Tenn. Pass and Prater, former of- ficers of the union's District 19, last year were convicted of murder on charges that they ar- ranged with Huddleston to hire the men who killed Yablonski. THE DEFENSE claims that the plot to kill Yablonski was de- veloped by District 19 officials, not Boyle, in an effort to cover up misuse of nearly $1 million in district funds. Huddleston quoted Pass as say- ing, "Wilson was destroying the mine workers and had to be killed." Later, Huddleston said, he met with Prater and Pass and was told "that plans had been changed and that they now wanted to kill Jock Yablonski." Yablonski was killed three weeks after he lost his bid to un- seat Boyle. The election was I voided by a federal judge, and Boyle was subsequently defeat- ed in a new election by the in- cumbent UMW president, Arnold Miller.

NEW YORK (P) - Insurance tycoon Clement Stone cast doubt yesterday on government claims that former Atty. Gen. John Mitchell warned a Republican presidential campaign aide to "stay away" from financier Robert Vesco and his $200,000 campaign contribution. Vesco's secret cash contribu- tion, the government charges, was the reason for the charges of conspiracy, obstruction of jus- tice and perjury of which Mit- chell and former Commerce Sec- retary Maurice Stans are ac- cused. THE TESTIMONY about the warning had come earlier in the trial from Daniel Hofgren, a government witness at the crim- inal conspiracy trial of Mitchell and Stans. Hofgren testified he talked to Mitchell at .a reception that pre- ceded a March 8, 1972, fund-rais- ing dinner at the Washington Hilton hotel, and that Mitchell made the "stay away" remark on that occasion. Stone, however, testified for the defense that Mitchell was his guest at the $1,000-a-plate dinner; didn't make the reception, and arrived late for the dinner. THAT LEFT IT up to the jury to decide whether Mitchell had the opportunity to talk with Hofgren that night. In an attempt to counter the testimony, the government, on cross - examination, drew from Stone's testimony that there were a number of other receptions at the hotel that night at which Hofgren might have encountered Mitchell. Stone, 71, a Chicago multimil- lionaire, was the largest single contributor to President Nixon's 1972 campaign, donating more than $2 million. He picked up ,a $10,000 tab for a table for 10 at the dinner: STANS AND MITCHELL are accused of obstructing a massive Securities and Exchange Com- mission investigation of Vesco's financial empire, in return for Vesco's $200,000 contribution to the Nixon re-election campaign. Robert Finch, Nixon's secre- tary of Health, Education and Welfare and later counselor to the President also testified for the defense yesterday. Finch said the consensus of a campaign finance meeting he at- tended on March 13, 1972 was that names of Republican con- tributors prior to April 7, 1972 would not be revealed. A new law mandating public listing of campaign contributors took ef- fect April 7. The government has contended that Stans and Mitchell ignored the April 7 deadline and kept Vesco's contribution secret for fear it might harm Nixon's re- election prospects because of the financier's SEC problem. 1 1 Address City ...StateZ7ip ..

You may never want to become a professional. Yet, your photography is as important a means of self-expression to you as your speech. You demand the same excellence in your photo- graphic equipment as you do of your photographic skills. The Canon F-1 is the camera that can fulfill any photographic task to which you put it. It can stand up to your ability in any situation. IRISH & SCOTTISH DANCE MUSIC LEAVE BLANK Yes, I would like to subscribe to THE SUMMER MICHIGAN DAILY (pre-payment necessary for subs. outside of Ann Arbor, Mich.) LEAVE BLANK Naturally, a great camera like the F-1 won't ensure great results. That's up to you. Yet-it's nice to know that your camera can grow with you as a photographer. Part of the reason for this is the F-1 system. Since it was designed in totality, it offers total perform- ance. There is nothing "added on" in the F-1 system. Everything works as it was designed to, and inte- grates superbly with everything else. You'll spend less time worrying about operating the camera than in shooting. And that's what creative photography is really all about. Controls fall into place under each finger. It's no accident. Pro- fessionals who depend on a camera for their livelihood have a deep regard for the F-i's handling. It's amazing how much a comfortable Sharing these lenses and many of these accessories are the new Electronic Canon EF, with fully automatic exposure control, the FTb, now improved with all expo- sure information visible in the finder, and the TLb, great for a second camera body or for getting started in Canon photography.
