High School Teacher
- Stabs Wife, Kills Children
And Cuts Own Throat
SAN JOSE, Calif., (JP) — The
sheriff’s office said a young high
school teacher climaxed an argu
ment with his estranged wife, by
stabbing her, battering their three
children to death and cutting his
own throat late Wednesday.
The teacher, Archie Connett,
31, described by his principal as
“competent, calm and one of our
best teachers,” lay near death at
Santa Clara County hospital.
His wife, Wynono, 28, who was
stabbed twice, was recovering'
but still under sedatives.
She had not been told that
i Connett, after sending her
screaming from the house, ap
parently had picked up the chil
dren by their heels and bashed
them to death against the floor,
furniture and walls.
They were Carl, 3 months;
Teresa 2Vi, and Michael 4.
In Korean War . . .
SEOUL, (JP) — Allied fighter
bombers spewed death and des
truction over North Korea Fri

clashed with Communist jet fight

six artillery positions, 10 troop
bunkers and 27 buildings. Sec

On the ground light patrol ac- j

Manchurian sanctuary without
firing a shot in the deepest Com
munist jet penetration of the war.

New Jliook At Holy Cross
(Holy Cross News)
Holy Cross has a new look. The
timber cut from the hills cupping
the mission, a large, new laundry
and a sturdy, new carpenter shop
built by Brother Laird and his
crew, a new quonset tractor and
tool shed built by Brother Feltes
and his shop boys, and two new
porches to the Sisters’ house are
all part of it.
Mr. Joseph Obersinner, S. J.,
and his little boys used over 70
gallons of white paint on the out
side of the buildings. Mr. Ober
sinner is the new “boss” of the
little boys. With them, he painted
the buildings, cleaned up the
yards, kept the gardens in weed
! less condition, cut over 75 cords !
of wood, took them hunting,
swimming, picnicking and skat- j
ing.
No telling where you will find
Mr. Nigro: helping the boys to
write letters, teaching them to |
serve Mass, teaching religion in
the various classes, supervising
the baking of bread. Never a lost
moment for our devoted schol
astics.
& A &
The Big Dream
A new and greater Holy Cross
is planned with buildings modeled
on the new St. Mary’s at Andre
afski. Plans are official but ma
terial and funds keep it still “a |
big dream.”
