TORONTO (CP) -- The Tele- gram says in a dispatch from Santo Domingo that George Ed- ward Lynch, a 32 - year - old Vancouver telephone engineer, dashed through a hail of bullets to rescue a dying U.S. marine. The story, by Gordon Donald- son, said that Mr. Lynch, in the Klux Klansman whose murder trial ended in a deadlocked jury Friday will be tried again. And, he added, "when people realize that this is not going to be swept under the rug as just another civil rights incident, that this is a murder trial, we may get a_ conviction next time." to trial again in the fall term of court in September. Two other Klan members also charged with slaying Mrs. Viola Liuzzo of Detroit, Mich., still are awaiting trial, and the charges against them also have been carried over to the Sep- tember term.
