Erie man faces murder hearing over fatal Route 5 crash
Roosevelt Williams Jr. of Erie, 23, faces a murder hearing for the death of Robert Smock Jr., 23, after a Saturday Route 5 stoplight quarrel ended with Williams stabbing Smock and slashing his passenger. The county reports state blind pensions and aid to 18 in general assistance, plus a large 1965 fund balance and distributions to towns. A Hydetown Route 8 accident injured two, while heavy rain swelled area creeks and caused damage. Final rites for Mrs. Audine V. Payne are planned in North East, as Pennsylvania reports record 1965 personal income and multiple weekend fatalities.

Dying Puppy Dog Noises Haunt Man After Fall
Dorian Figueroa, 38, suffered a 20 foot fall from a ladder on May 28, 1964, injuring his skull and ear. After three operations to quiet the sounds in his head, he describes them as varying like a dying puppy, a siren, or wind through a crack, with nights the loudest. His wife Margie recounted hearing the noises herself during a reconciliation.

California Driver Appeals DUI Conviction to Supreme Court
Armando Schmercher from Los Angeles appeals his 1964 drunken driving conviction to the Supreme Court. He argues police cannot force a blood test to determine intoxication, while authorities say the sample was taken without force and did not violate rights. The high court had previously ruled in 1967 on related issues.

Court may overrule itself after Schmercher ruling
The three dissenters were Chief Justice Earl Warren and the court's senior justices Hugo L Black and William O. Douglas. A Schmercher ruling could force the court to reconsider prior positions. The June 1964 decision that the Fifth Amendment protects against self incrimination for states undercut that obstacle.
