Brookville Father Begins Prison Term For Murder
A years old father of seven children was sentenced to 31 years to fifteen years in Western Penitentiary after a second degree murder conviction in the slaying of Waldory Ditty in Corsica during a street fight last September. Corsica lies seven miles west of Brookville. Judge Long denied a new trial last week, and an appeal to the state supreme court was announced by Bunard’s attorneys. Louis Bidenz named Muriel Draper and the Rev William Howard Melish as Communist party members during the libel suit trial involving Mrs Draper’s son Paul the dancer and Larry Adier.
