State Opposes New Trial Plea in Christian Case
Prosecutor A. C. L. Barthelmeh filed a four page brief in common pleas opposing a motion for a new trial in Louis J. Christian’s case. The defendant was acquitted of manslaughter in the second degree but found guilty of leaving the scene of an accident after the October hit skip that killed Richard S. Baxter, 17. The brief argues against misconduct claims, new evidence, and claims the verdict was unsustained by evidence, noting the defendant admitted elements of the offense and criticizing the court's charge as too favorable to the defense.

Covered bridges of Columbiana County endure amid war cuts
In Columbiana County nine early covered bridges, dating back 65 years, endure amid wartime material shortages. Engineer Charles Snyder notes each bridge averages a mile of highway, with several spans measuring 81, 66 and 60 feet. Recent repairs reuse timbers from defense demand, while Teegarden and Lisbon water-well bridges undergo reconditioning to complete the program.
