The checks were in the amount of $493.34 to Keel and $986.68 to Dick.
The floor sheet of the Feb. 16 sale listed the owners of the crop as Keel and Keel. The sale involved 2,272 pounds and a check of $873.73 to Keel. The first endorsem*nt of the check was given as Keel and Keel. A second endorsem*nt of the check was made by Kemp.
Under cross examination by Scent, Tripp admitted that it is not unusual for tobacco to be sold under names other than the actual owner. Tripp said tobacco sometimes is sold in the names of the owner's children or the producer if different from the owner. Tripp said i it was possible that tobacco could be sold by someone other than the owner or producer if the marketing card is obtained by the seller in some manner. Tripp added that it was not the warehouse's responsibility to screen the names on the cards, but that the warehouse Joe D. Davis, Fulton, Dies; Services Today FULTON, Dec.

With all 27 markets report- Hike Seen (Continued From Page One) pools for millions of commuters thrughout the nation.
The Census Bureau analyzed 1970 census information for 125 metropolitan areas of at least 250,000 persons and found that 31 million of 47.2 million workers drive to work alone. Under the program, tion on where commuters live and work could be compiled to ease the forming of commuting groups. Also in Washington, truck, drivers threatened to leave the roads Tuesday night as a protest against high fuel prices and lower speed limits. An independent driver, John Sassi of Newark, told a Senate Public Works subcommittee that drivers were being urged to park their rigs, but Frank Fitzsimmons, president of the Teamsters union, told the subcommittee he had heard nothing about the threatened work stoppage. In other energy-related lopments Tuesday: -Norbert T.
Tiemann, chief of the Federal Highway Administration, said the energy crisis could curtail funds for highway expansion and maintenance. He said the cuts would be caused by a drop in the amount of taxes collected from highway users and on gasoline. -Commerce Secretary Frederick B. Dent said in New York the government is revising its estimate of the fuel shortage. He refused to speculate in which direction the revision would go, but said no increase is likely in the current estimate that fuel supplies will be off by 17 per cent.
-Connecticut Gov. Thomas J. Meskill asked President Nixon to allocate crude oil used in manufacturing and to remove price controls on these products. -Charles Elkins, assistant administrator for hazardous materials in the Environmental Protection Agency, said the White House settled a dispute between the EPA and the Atomic Energy Commission, awarding the AEC the authority to set standards on radioactive emissions from atomic plants. -The Air Transport Association, an airline industry organlization, estimated that the fuel allocation program will force the nation's airlines to cancel 2,600 daily departures and lay off more than 25.000 employes.
-Eli Reich, director of the Office of Petroleum Allocation, was reported ready to resign, to be replaced by an official from the Office of Management and Budget. -The president of the American Petroleum Institute, Frank N. Ikard, said that the solution to the energy crisis is in finding more supplies, not simply sharing those that are available. "With one or two exceptions, there is nothing in any action taken by the government to date that will provide one addi-, tional drop of oil, one cubic foot of natural gas, or one kilowatt of electric power this winter, he said. -King Hussein of Jordan said in Amman that the Arab oil embargo on shipments to nations supporting Israel could be a "two-edged sword" because Europeans seriously affected by the oil shortage could turn against the Arabs.

1, testified that she and her husband marketed several loads of tobacco 1969 from farms they own in County, Tenn. and one farm in Calloway County. She testified that her husband was ill during this time she supervised all the tobacco crops. Mrs. Underwood said that she and her husband made only two sales-one on Jan, 19 at Dorna's Loose Leaf in Murray and the second on Feb.
16 on the Mayfield Loose Leaf Floor. Two other sales made on the marketing card issue to Underwood were denied by Mrs. Underwood. Those sales, according to the card, were Feb. 20 and Feb.
27, both in Mayfield. "We didn't raise any tobacco for these sales, we didn't make these sales, and we didn't get any money from these sales," said Mrs. Underwood. Two checks from the last two sales were shown to Mrs. Underwood who said she had never seen them before.
One check, dated Feb. 20, and in the amount of $880.50 was made out to M. W. Underwood. The second check, dated Feb.
27 in the amount of $1,317.56, was endorsed by J. W. Underwood. Mrs. Underwood testified that she knew of no persons by those names, and had no knowledge of the sales.
Mrs. Underwood also testified that she and her husband helped neighbor, Hubert Underwood, cut and hang his tobacco because he was unable to manage the crop himself. She testified she did not sell or raise this tobacco. She stated that she, her husband, Herbert, and Robert Kemp carried the tobacco to the Mayfield floor: Mrs. Underwood stated they carried the tobacco to Mayfield because Kemp had guaranteed the tobacco would bring a certain amount on the Mayfield floor.
Mrs. Underwood was shown other checks bearing the endorsem*nts of Larry and Smith and Larry Underwood. She testified she did not know of any persons by those names. Testimony revealed that the two checks carried second endorsem*nts by Kemp. In her statement, Mrs.
Underwood said aproximately a year later, Kemp called her and said "I am into it. They have got me for selling tobacco on your card." Mrs. Underwood added that Kemp came to her home and tried to persuade her to say she had asked him to sell the tobacco that way. Kemp offered to return the money received from the tobacco and pay income taxif she would comply, Mrs. Underwood said, adding that she refused.
She added that Kemp returned later with Lancie Morris of Calloway County and offered to pay her $4,000 if she would back him. Again she said she refused. Mrs. Underwood testified that when Kemp brought her checks from the first two sales she asked him for the market card to which Kemp replied he had forgotten it. The card was returned several days later and was turned over to the county extension agent in Henry County.
Further testimony from Tripp revealed three sales on Jan. 26, 1970 on the Mayfield floor from the farm of R. B. Windsor of Calloway County. The first sale, for 5,776 pounds of tobaco, was listed to Windsor.
The second sale listed Windsor as landlord and a Johnny Winstead as the tenant and receiving all the money. The sale involved 2,002 pounds and a check in the amount of $887.94 was made out to J. W. Underwood. The check was endorsed initially by J.
W. Underwood and carried a fond endorsem*nt by Kemp. The third sale listed Windsor the landlord with J. W. Underwood as tenant.
That sale involved 2,450 pounds -of tobacco which brought $1,064.38. The check carried endorsem*nts by W. Underwood and Kemp. The prosecution expects to conclude its case today with the testimony of Windsor. Meeting Delayed, At General Tire MAYFIELD, Ky.

GUIDRY Jr. Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) The Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that police may make a complete search of anyone under lawful arrest. The court's three liberals dissented sharply.
The import of the 6-3 decision rests, in in such the use searches, of and evidence the operation of the controversial "exclusionary illegally rule" gathered which bans evidence at trial. "It is the fact of the lawful arrest which establishes the au- School (Continued From Page One) eliminating some activities and scheduling several activities on the same evening. Still other recommendations were to require all students to school buses, rather than private cars, when available and to cancel out-of-town educational trips, such as to the Capitol here or to industries. The suggested thermostat settings were 68 degrees in classrooms, 60 degrees i in siums, 55 degrees in lavatories and corridors and 40 degrees in basket and drying rooms. After 3 or 3:30 p.m., thermostats would be set back to 60-62 in most rooms, and 50 in the gym, lavatories and corridors.
Formal actions taken by the board Tuesday included: -Urging all local school superintendents to take active roles in county alcohol and drug education committees. The action was requested by the Governor's Commission on and Drug Abuse. The board indicated agreement with another by that commission to have schools switch to smaller, seminar-type sessions on alcohol and drug abuse programs rather than large lectures. But Ginger and others said first there would have to be a change in state law that allows only such large lectures, a change the department has sought unsuccessfully from the last six legislatures. -Approving the locating of an area vocational school on the campus of Northern Kentucky State College.
The locaItion of the school has been enmeshed in controversy for several months, with Newport School Supt. Tom Gabbard wanting the school adjacent to his high school but only if his board would have control over it; the state board has refused to budge from its policy of having such schools controlled by the state. -Approving the turning over of Paducah Tilghman Vocational School to the state. -Approving the purchase of the Owensboro Training Center for $365,000 so the state can build a vocational school there. The board was told it would cost more than $1 million to renovate the present 40-year old building there and a new structure could be built for that.

The KWW board went on record as unanimously opposed to House Bill No. 10448 which would place a 4 per cent tax on all recreation vehicles, including travel and camping trailers. The board also voiced unanimous disapproval of the sale of ice in camping areas in the Land Between the Lakes.

Hogge said the transportation department will tell interested workers how to contact potential riders when it distributes the compatible car pool information. The bureau of Highways also will provide followup assistance, but Hogge said final arrangements will have to be made by the car pool members.
As an incentive, a priority parking program will be develloped involving registered car pools. Hogge said it will include a "continuing service phase" der which new employes can be added and those leave replaced. The car pool project is to take effect when the necessary data has been obtained from state employes. The priority parking program is expected to be implemented immediately after the Christmas and New Year's holidays. Bible College Tells Plans For Graduation MAYFIELD, Dec.

Truckers to search, and we hold that in the case of a lawful todial arrest a full search of the person is not only an exception to warrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment, but is also a 'reasonable' search under that ment," Justice William wrote, H.
Rehnquist 1 for the majority. In dissent, Justice Thurgood Marshall said the court now was turning its back on the long-held principle that the legality of searches accom-Ition panying arrests should be assessed on a case-by-case basis. The ruling came in cases that stem from traffic arrests. In one, a District of Columbia man was arrested on an outstanding traffic warrant.

Ford (Continued From Page One) doing a good job in difficult times," that he maintains a good working relationship with the legislature, and keeps in close touch with the people. Harry Lee Waterfield, who lieutenant governor from and again from 1963-67, says Ford's greatest asset "is his ability to act with decisiveness, he doesn't fool around." Wilson Wyatt, lieutenant governor from 1959-63, describes Ford as a man who "gets things done, you can tie to him, he keeps his promises." During the interviews, the five made these other observations: Nunn: "Among Ford's problems are factionalism in his party, a normal occurrence for Democratic think he's extremely ambitious politically. He will make a decision about running for the U.S. Senate or some other office when it's expedient for him to do Clements said that with heavy Democratic majorities in the House and Senate, the governor "will emerge from the 1974 legislature in good shape." Breathitt said Ford has shown exceptional leadership on the national scene and helped elect Democrat Walter Huddleston to the U.S. Senate.
Waterfield predicted Ford's greatest problem will be facing the organization, of the teaching profession at the 1974 Legislature. "Although these have been the best of financial times, I think the teacher demand for more money is as great as when a governor didn't have half the money Ford has." Wyatt declined to speculate on Ford's political future. However, he said "while a person holds the scepter," like being in the U.S. Senate, it is easier to move toward the vice presidenIcy from the Senate. Ford continues to brush away suggestions that he run for the Senate in 1974.
He reiterates his plan to remain in the governor's office until 9, when his term expires. Ford presents the "you-can't-to be-serious" reaction when vice president in 1976 is mentioned to him. But there are politicos who say Robert Strauss, the Democratic National Committee chairman, and others will be helping Ford to build up his national image during the next few years.

The high court majority reversed that decision. In the second case, police in Florida were permitted use as evidence marijuana discovered in a search that followed a routine warrantless traffic stop. "A police officer's determinaas to how and where to search the person of a suspect whom he has arrested is necessarily a quick judgment which the Fourth Amendment does not require to be broken down in each instance into an analysis of each step, in the search," said Rehnquist. Marshall, joined by Justices William 0. Douglas and William J.
Brennan, declared that "the mere fact of an arrest should be no justification in and of itself for the priva-, cy of the individual's personal effects. "There is always the possibility that a police officer, lackling probable cause to obtain a search warrant, will use a traffic arrest as a pretext to conduct a search." Last term, the same lineup of justices held that police need not inform a suspect that he may refuse a request from poto conduct a warrantless search.

Sassi indicated later he wasn't satisfied with assurances that the federal goverment was moving to ease the drivers' problems. Drivers who blocked roads in the East and Midwest last week and in California Monday are seeking a ceiling on diesel fuel prices, guarantees against price gouging, and higher speed limits.
