Some Parties Can Be Expensive "Tomorrow your beautiful bride awaits you!" Cheers greeted this hilarious cry as handsome Gunar, a 29 - year - old Swede, reeled against none-too-steady party guest. The cheers grew increasingly boisterous, for the stag party, having begun in the afternoon, was still going strong at midnight and everyone present was well lit up. Finally, two family retainers, as previously briefed, took hold of the tipsy guests, stripped off their outer clothes, and plunged them one by one into the icy water of a lake adjoining the restaurant. What a hangover tormented Gunar on his wedding morning! Watched with dismay by his radiant bride, 22-year-old honey blonde Ulla, he staggered up the aisle, white-faced and desperately groggy. As the music pealed forth and sunshine flooded through richly stained glass windows, the church seemed to spin around him. Clutching his throbbing head, in a last vain effort to retain seH-control, he blurted out, "I must get out of here!" Amid murmurs of consternation, he left his shocked young bride on the verge of tears. He ran out of the church, staggered into a taxi, and fled to his hotel. There he collapsed into .bed. Ulla' was heartbroken. No word of explanation came to her until twenty-four hours later, when Gunar 'phoned, saying that he'd blacked out because of his stag party hangover. "Well, if that's your behaviour on what should have been the happiest day of our lives, you can stay away from me for good!" she spat out, and slammed down the receiver. How often does the unexpected materialize at a party ! What begins in gaiety ends with fearful shock or, maybe, with unexpected thrills and romance. In a Colorado nightclub recently, 25-year-old Canadian Lester Johnston sat swilling champagne, feeling like a million dollars, when a firm hand fell on his shoulder. This arrest by American detectives acting on a warrant from the Moun-tles, ended a sixteen-day revel. He was charged with having embezzled $300,000 from an Ottawa bank. They found $210,000 in bills in his hotel room; and besides financing his drinking spree, he'd bought himself an expensive car. "Well, that's it, boys, I guess," grinned Johnston, ruefully. "I always wondered what it woutd be like to have monev. Now T know !" Much sharper tension intruded at a party held in Melbourne a few weeks ago, when an exasperated 27-year-old butcher named Mike suddenly stopped everyone's fun by whipping out a revolver. "Get up against the wall there, all al you -- and quick!" he rasped. As he brandished his gun, the party obeyed with some speed. "Now give me back my bottle of beer; one of you has stolen it!" he snapped. Mike was solely concerned with satisfying his suspicions that someone had pinched his bottle of beer; this was his way of finding out. But one fellow-guest greatly disliked such tough guy tactics. While Mike was marshalling his suspects, the guest slipped away and 'phoned the police. They soon arrived and, after a scuffle, disarmed the gunman and put him in a cell. Appearing In court, he was fined $75, and had his revolver confiscated. LEFT OUT - Left behind when the parade passed by were this little girl and the balloon vender during a children's celebra- Saved Killer From Gallows No mystery is really a mystery. There must always be someone who knows the truth. If a crime remains unsolved it is because there are those in the secret who will not speak. Such conspiracies of silence are to be expected in the criminal underworld, but they have occurred, even in cases of murder, among people who are apparently good citizens. The mystery here is why these people acted as they did. It is said that the secret of the Appin murder of 1752, a classic of this kind, has been handed down in Argyllshire from generation to generation to the present time. Clannishness is not peculiar to the Scottish Highlands; it may be paralleled to-day in some quiet English countryside. The same secrecy which clamped down on the shooting of Campbell of Glenure 200 years ago enshrouds the murder of Edward Welham in 1931. We need not believe that Welham's Dorset neighbours would have gone so far as the Highlanders whose ideas of clan loyalty sent an innocent man to the gallows; but the determined silence of these rural folk was to baffle Scotland Yard. First manager and trainer of the Cloverdale Kenned, at Tarrant Keynston, in L jrset, was William Steer. When, within a few months Steer was found shot near a badger hole, his gun by his side, the fatality was accepted as accidental. His successor was Edward George Welham, a young unmarried man. Welham lodged in the village with the family of his kennel-maid, Mary Hathaway. She worked only in the afternoons; as full-time assistant Welham employed a young man, Frederick Deamen. The kennels consists ! of a long army hut, divided in the middle by partitions which formed a small office. Here Welham kept his guns, a 16:bore and a 12-bore, in a cupboard by his desk. On the morning of October 1st, 1931, he ' was as usual at the kennels before breakfast. He returned to the Hathaway's house for this meal at eight o'clock. When he went back to the hut - DOWN BUT NOT OUT - Probably recalling the no-bit garnet * of 1952 and 1956 when they were battery-mates, Roy Campanella sits in his wheelchair and watches pitcher Carl Erskine warm up at the Dodgers spring training camp. Campanella is now a special coach with the team. he missed a blind spaniel, to which he was much attached, and Deamen was sent to look for the dog. This was just before ten o'clock Deamen, by his own account, was only some 120 yards from the hut when he heard a shot, but thought nothing of it. It took him some time to find the spaniel When he returned to the hut, Welham was lying in a pool of blood on the floor of the office, his own 16-bore gun beneath him. Deamen ran to- the village-. Thomas Hathaway, the kennel-maid's father, went back with him to the hut. The girl herself followed with her brother, and after them came the police constable stationed at Tarrant Keyn- Welham was still alive; he was taken to the hospital at Blandford where he died the next morning. He had been shot in the back, apparently while standing at his desk. The 16-bore had been fired. The policeman's first impression was that it was a case of suicide. He looked about for means by which Welham could have reached the trigger of the gun while holding the muzzle to the back of his neck. He expected, he said, to find a stick or a string. There was no string, but a long stick of hazel was leaning against some sacks near the office door. It was Mary Hathaway who pointed out that Welham's jacket was unbuttoned and that his wallet was sticking half out of the. inside pocket. There was a pound note in it. Welham, should have been carrying about £10. The medical report, with that of the policeman, convinced the Chief Constable of Dorset that he had a case of murder on his hands. Scotland Yard were called in and Superintendent Hambrook of the C.I.D. arrived at Tarrant Keynston. Experiments with the 16-bore proved that Welham had been shot from a distance of about twelve feet. The door of the office was thirteen feet from his desk. He was shot, in Hambrook's words, "by some person who stood in the doorway and thrust the muzzle of the gun through the opening." The gun, in the superintendent's opinion, was taken from its cupboard while Welham was away at breakfast. The murderer then waited near the hut -- there was plenty of cover handy -- until Deamen left to find the spaniel. If the motive of the crime was gain, the murderer in his haste missed £9 in the desk. But was gain the motive? Hambrook began to have other ideas, which were strengthened, by the behaviour of Welham's neighbours. The young man appeared to have been well liked, but the folk of Tarrant Keynston had heard nothing, seen nothing, and knew aothing. They ignored the evidence of murder; it was obviously suicide, they said. At Supt. Hambrook's request the rector of Tarrant Keynston took the unusual step of asking his parishioners from the pulpit to help the police -- in other words, not to obstruct them. The appeal appeared to have no effect. With the case in this unsatisfactory state, Hambrook returned to London to report. He had barely got there when Thomas Hathaway made a confession. He had tampered with evidence. His first thought ( on reaching the hut with Deamen, was that Welham had shot himself by accident. Then he saw a cord trailing from the hazel stick towards the gun. To spare Welham's mother the pain of knowing that her son had committed suicide, he slipped the cord from the stick. He had kept it, and the stick was still in the office. The superintendent hastened back to Tarrant Keynston; but further experiments showed that no arrangement of cord and stick could have fired the gun as it must have been fired. Here, then, appeared to be proof of premeditation. But why, having staged a suicide, did the murderer defeat his aim by tampering so carelessly with the wallet? Did he panic? Or was there no theft? Was Welham, perhaps, taking out the wallet when he was shot? • These and other features of the case remain riddles because the main question is still unanswered. Who fired the shot? "I think I know," Hambrook said, but evidence to justify a charge was denied him by the locals' silence. The case, therefore, is still open. It may be that Dorset folk are less secretive than Highlanders and that fifty years hence, when all concerned, including the murderer, are dead, someone will tell the story, handed down, of who killed Edward Welharn, and why; and Scotland Yard can then close the file.
