A Killer?
Ralph B. Baumann, 21, was in a coma for six weeks before May 3. he told Los Angeles police, and now he thinks he may be the "phantom killer" responsible for the slaying of five Texarkana residents. The Texarkana area has been fearing the return of the killer, and now Baumann wants to go back there and see whether he had any connection with the slayings. (NEA Telephoto)

Lido, On Shores Of Sea Of Galilee Offends Sensibilities Of Christians
By JAMES GRIEVES (United Press Staff Correspondent)
Tiberias Palestine. (UP)—Along with weightier issues the Anglo-American inquiry commission on Palestine found itself concerned with the Club Lido, complete with swing band, on the south shore of the Sea of Galilee.
The commission's hitherto unnoticed Recommendation No. 7 said the Lido, "with its dancing and swing music on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, offends the sensibilities of many Christian people."
The controversial report on the commission's findings has prompted investigation along various lines. One likewise seemed in order to determine what caused its slightly alarmed observation on the club Lido.
Here today is this correspondent's own report on that that investigation conducted unofficially and single-handedly:
I took the road from Capernaum, where Jesus taught after leaving Nazareth, and entered Tiberias through a shady eucalyptus grove surrounding the old round towers of medieval forts.
To my left a signboard invited all to the worldly premises of the "Galilee Lido."
It was a small cafe, somewhat fashionable in a shabby way, with
a broad terrace overlooking the lake and the Syrian mountains on the eastern shore. Alongside was a row of bathhouse cabins leading to the breakwater harbor for pleasure boats.
The cafe was jammed with holiday celebrants from Tel Aviv and Haifa. They were dressed mostly in poor copies of Hollywood play suits and bare-midriff bathing suits. The wives of successful merchants were in sport dresses and platform shoes.
There were tourists in shorts, and reclining convalescents who had spent the morning in the hot springs nearby. There was a sprinkling of red-tarbushed Effendis. The crews of police and customs boats, in their immaculate whites, seemed to be permanent patrons.
The manager said the owner was a German subject who had been in an internment camp for the last five years.
He was a descendant of the German Templars who migrated to Palestine about 80 years ago to found a community along the strict lines of the early Christians. Some years before the first world war he had found it consistent with the community creed to open the first dancing club on the shores of Galilee since the days of the wicked Herod Antipas, who founded Tiberias.
After the late war began, the custodian of enemy property took over. The present manager abides by instructions from that office, which invited him to renew his lease a few days before the inquiry commission's report was issued.

"I am a good Christian myself," he defended himself, "and I vouch for the fact that not the slightest indeceency has taken place on the premises.
"It is up to the Palestine government, however, to give the order that my swing music should be replaced by a chamber quartet playing Beethoven and Debussy."
All right, Palestine government,
what say?
