Slayer of Jimmie Keene Is Revealed (continued from page 1) Signal Corps corporal and stu dent at the Electronic Radio Television Institute at 915 Doug las street got into the cab driven by James Keene, about 10:30 p. m., May 6th. This was in front of the Sears-Roebuck Co., 3002 Farnam street. Elvin planned to go to the 40-Bowl 120 South 40th street. Fingering in his pocket, lie realized that he had only about $2. The idea of a hold-up occurred to him. He told the driver to go on, that he would tell him when to slop. They moved over to Dodge, west to Seventj'-seeorid Street. the it south on vef.ty-secon nd Street near the home of Roy F. Nelson, 7305 William Street. Ke did not know the Nelsons. Elvin got out on the driver's side. The cabbie got out, too, and informed him of the fare. "This is a stickup," said Elvin, holding his right hand in a pocket that held a Czech 6.35 mm. gun. The gun had been purchased in a San Francisco hock shop. James Keene moved toward Elvin. Elvin stepped backward and repeated his command. Again James stepped forward, asking for the fare. Elvin re peated, 'This is a stick-up," and moved behind the car. At live feet, Eivin Keene yanked the gun from his pocket, fired three times. James fell, shot in the left side, chest and between the eyes. James yelled, Elvin screamed. Panic-stricken Elvin got be hind the 'wheel. He couldn't make himself drive. A car ap proached from try north. Elvin fled in panic before the approaching lights, tore and cut himself and his clothes crossing a barb-wire lence on the west side of Seventy-second Street. Out of breath and steaming', he discarded the leather jacket in a railway trestle south of Sixty eighth and Center Streets. He went on to Center, then headed back into town. He was back at school the next day. "I debated with myself several times about turning my seisin," he said. Why didn't he? To this Keene had no answer. . He lists church affiliation and was graduated from Abilene High School in 1946. In June he entered the Signal Corps. He served in Korea, To kyo, Okinawa, and Manila. He received an honorable discharge in December, 1947. Elvin stands 5 feet 11 inches, weighs 155 pounds. He has red hair and brown eyes. On Elvin's right palm, officials found a tree-inch scar.

Then as the huge crowd await- j ed the revelation of the new ' king, Fiancis Lebens, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Lebens, attired in a white satin suit, stepped through the gate bearing the crown of the king. Then the new King, Walter H. Smith was roeted with a thunderous burst cf applause. His majesty was resplendid in a blue brocaded coat, white satin knee breeches, and the tradition al buckled shoes. The new king received a rrig-hly greeting from the crowd as he made his way slowly to the throne. Ho kneeled before the retiring king, who placed on the head of the. new monarch the crown of authority. King Don, in leaving the throne, also turned over the royal scepter to the new King. And now into the realm of Korn Land entered . the. duch esses. These are the girls who are selected by popular vote to represent their respective classes. They carried out the color theme tA the Koronation by wearing f( rmals mode of three shades of i pink and carrying nosegays of pink flowers edged in fcjid paper. These girls were: Freshmen Joyce Fa uquet an el Mary Jo Ann Lohr.cs; Sophomores Marilyn Bourhe end Thelma Wilson; Jun iors Beverly Erown and Barba ra Kimball. A Iter , the Duchesses had taken the positions by the platform, the princesses began walking back to the entrance gate. Upon reaching the gate they faced the royal path and kneeled, forming an honor guard for the new queen. Then the trumpets heralded the entrance of the queen's per sonal escorts. First were three ladies- in- waiting whom the queen had chosen to aid in her reign, they were Donna Meising er,, Norma Spidtll and Janet Tiekottur. Donna was dressed in a pink dress and carried a deep rose ruffled parasol. Norma and Janet were dressed in darker pink dresses and earrie-d gold ruffled parasols sparkling with sequins. ! Then the flower girls in ferm ais of pink taffeta with gold flower baskets suspended or. gold ribbon around their necks, added to the picture of charru by dropping pink flower petals in the path of the new queen. The flower girls were: Nancy Gauer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Gauer of Louisville, Car olyn Ann Vinduska, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Vinduska; Walter II. Harold R.

The crown of the queen lay sparkling on a cushion borne by little Sandra Spangler, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Spang ler. Charming indeed was she in her formal of pink satin. As the crown bearer started her march, the coach of the queen arrived and from it emerg ed lovely Betty Meisinger. She were a beautiful gown of gold velvet mide with a hoop skirt and bustles. The royal cape of white satin trimmed with ermine added to her beauty. The train of the cape was borne by Julia Ann -Chovanec, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. V. J. Chovanec; Joyce Marie Bueehlcr, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Buechler and Billy Knofiieek, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Knofiieek. Julia Ann and Joyce Marie wore pink forma Js and the boys were dress ed in white. The handling of the broadcast ing of the KorctnaticTn was in the hands of Harold Lebens, substi tuting for King Walter, and he did a real job of the word por trait painting of the g-ala event for the benefit of the 8,000 audi ence that lined the streets and filled the buildings along Main street. Following the koronation cere monies the King Korn royalty marched ,to the Hotel Platts mouth where a reception was held in the lobby of the hotel, their majesties in regal robes re ceived the greetings of the many friends and members of the court. Here the queen was pre sented with a huge bouquet of American Beauty roses sent by the Falstaff company for the Plattsmouth queen. , The closing ceremonies of the evening was the ball held at the Eagles hail where for several hours the members of the party enjoyed dancing to the music of. Gene Lingford and his orches tra. The grand march was led by the king and queen followed by members of the court. It was a most brilliant scene with the large array of old time costumes and brilliant colors of the gown of the ladies and the more somber suits of the men of, the party. Thus in the late hours the koronation of 1948 slipped away into the pages of history of korn land to 'rest until the coming of a new king and queen in 1949. Patronize Journal Advertisers."
