S. Air Force pilot in the Korean war. But there was a chance of a presidential pardon.

Convicted of fighting on the side of anti-government forces in the rebellion of 1958, the 31-year-old flier from Miami, was given a week to appeal to a higher court. But if Pope accepts the verdict, Lt. Col. Sardjono of the Indonesian Air Force, who acted as Judge, may ask President Sukarno for a pardon. "Sardjono found the 51-year-old pilot guilty of killing 17 members of Indonesia's armed forces In bombing and strafing missions, and of carrying arms for the rebels.

The victim, Debbie Scrlbner, perished In a blazing metal shed while two chUdren playing with her escaped. Police Chief Hobart Adams said no explanation had been found as to why Debbie was trapped and ler companions were able to get out safely. Several theories, however, were considered. Chief Adams said she may have been covered with straw which was kept in the shed so that she could not have seen the fire in time to get out before being overcome with smoke. An investigation also was being made to determine whether the other children could have slammed the shed door too tight in their panic.

Chief Adams said it was believed that some of the children had matches. Boone Mystery Cat Spotted A 19-year-old Erlanger, Ky, youth said yesterday he saw a huge feline creature Wednesday in Boone County and dug up two footprints in soft mud to prove it Authorities speculate that lt was a bobcat or a wildcat, but local oldsters felt it meant the "return of the wampus cat to Woolper Creek." Dave South, 439 Commonwealth said he saw the creature on the bank of the Ohio River, two miles south of Petersburg. He said he had been fishing and heard a noise behind him. "I looked a and there, as big as life, was a mountain lion. I'm sure it had been stalking me, but when I turned it bounded Into the brush." Roy Holbrook, Burlington fire -recalled that the "wampus cats" a colloquialism applied to a large species of bobcat or bay lynx years ago were frequently seen in the area of Woolper Creek.
