Jail witness to testify in deaths of three Mississippi workers
A jailed man who neared Philadelphia, Mississippi, and was among the last to see three civil rights workers alive is set to testify. The investigation into the Neshoba County slayings and related indictments continues as Biloxi panel hearings proceed and federal authorities pursue nine potential charges. Meanwhile, bomb attacks in southwest Mississippi spur appeals for more federal agents, and remarks surface from Dick Gregory, Governor Wallace, and MLK on reactions and legal prospects.

Klontz, serving two to five years for forgery, and Burmette, described as in poor health and serving 42 years for armed robbery, sparked a statewide search.
