The hearing began March 16 and resumed again today following two postponements requested by the defense. CONSPIRACY CHARGE Carter and Catsman are charged with conspiracy to cheat and defraud foe city of Flint by obtaining money under false pretenses. The charge grew out of Flint one-man grand Jury investigation this winter. Baker said this morning that in most conspiracies it isn’t necessary to show that any two people sat down and made aa agreement. The Judge pointed out that conspiracies are proven by circumstances and circumstantial evidence.

NEAREQUAUTY Romney's proposal features almost perfect equality in district populations by freely crossing county lines. Oakland Canty’s 19th, lew 18 per cent below foe 411,190 average, would be brought up close to that figure by gaining Livonia, NorfoviOe and Plymouth Township from Way ae County. Wayne has ton mmy people for six districts of 411,000 and not enough for seven. Actually, this would add 90,000 population to the 19th, which covers ail of Livingston County and Oakland County north of South Boulevard (including Pontiac) and west of Inkster Road. This would make the district too big.

Also In on Negotiations The Oakland County Department of Public Works is negotiating with Pontiac Township and Oakland University to provide them with Detroit water, it was learned today. Public Works Director R. J. Alexander estimated that it would cost $1.47 million for a water main to serve some 6,000 acres in foe southern portion of the township and the university. He said the project could be financed by charging users rates comparable with those in Pontiac. The project would entail the laying of a 16-inch water main along Squirrel Road from South Boulevard north to Walton Boulevard. This could be connected into from east and west between Opdyke (Pontiac city limits) and Adams Road. The main would "draw water from a 54-inch main which now carries Detroit water intQ Pontiac. Alexander said there is sufficient capacity in the main along South Boulevard to serve both the proposed area and Pontiac. REPLACE WELLS Detroit water would replace several wells in developed portions of the township and would eliminate the need for any future well drilling. Alexander described well water in the area as limited and of poor quality. Approximately half of the 6,000 acres Is undeveloped at this time. Alexander said Detroit water was proposed for the nrear when it wad learned that university officials were considering the expansion and revamping of its well system. / He Said foe money would be better spent for Detroit water if both the • university and the teiriiah^Kcah reach’ an agre^ wM.- WP*<: of Ortonville.

This pofet, had been the target for the most daring climbers, bat toward Everest’s summit, the air becomes so thin that it makes it difficult and dangerous to continue- Seven major expeditions had attacked Everest without success;. II men lost their lives in the effort. In 1953 a new expedition was organized by an expert mountaineer, Sir John Hunt. This group tackled the mountain on the south side, which former mountaineers had declared impossible to scale. Hunt set up a series of camps. Camp VIII, at 25,999 feet, was pitched oa May 24. From here, supplies were carried still higher. Then a two-man assault team tried for the summit and failed. Now it was the turn of the second team of Sir Edmund Hillary and the experienced native Sherper Tenzing. Up, up they went and finally Hillary saw a little mound of snow ahead from which everything sloped down. It was the summit, and soon they were standing where' none had stood before. It was May 29, 1953. ★ ★ ★ FOR YOU TO DO: The first victory was by a British ex-pedltion, but on May 1, 1983, the American flag was flown from the summit by an American and a native Sherpa.
