U.N., Congo Police Seek Attache Killer
LEOPOLDVILLE, The Congo — (UPI)—Four thousand Congolese police and troops combed Leopoldville today for a rifle and a night watchman in hopes of a lead to the killer of U.S. Army Lt. Col. Hulen Dorris Stogner, the assistant U.S. military attache in Leopoldville.
After more than 36 hours of investigation, police said they still had not been able to determine a motive for the slaying of the 39-year-old officer. Stogner had been serving as assistant military attache at the U.S. Embassy.
THE WEAPON, BELIEVED TO be a 9 mm rifle, has not been found.
The night watchman who was supposed to have been on duty had disappeared.
Stogner was not known to have had any enemies.
U. S. Charge D'affaires G. Macmurtrey Godley said Stogner, whose wife and six children live in El Paso, Tex., was lying on a bed in his home when the fatal shot was fired through the window Wednesday night.
Godley said Stogner's secretary, Elizabeth Thring, 22, of Arlington, Va., was sitting in a chair in the bedroom when the officer was fatally wounded.
Miss Thring was questioned informally last night by Congolese Surete Chief Victor Nendaka. She spent the night at the home of U.S. Embassy Air Attache Col. and Mrs Ben Matlick after collapsing during questioning earlier.
The U.S. Embassy began distributing notices to be hung on the houses of its personnel. The signs said the premises cannot be searched because of diplomatic immunity. A large American flag and the message in three languages were inscribed on the signs which were each about a foot square.
A single bullet went through Stogner's neck. Miss Thring immediately called the Embassy, which notified Godley. An ambulance was dispatched to pick up the wounded officer who was bleeding heavily. He was rushed to a United Nations' hospital where he died about an hour later.
MISS THIRING TOLD POLICE she picked up Stogner's revolver after the shooting and notified the Embassy. She said she saw a man who looked like the chauffeur of the embassy's air attache, Col. Dan Matlick, near the house. The man ran away, Miss Thring said, when he saw the revolver in her hand.
The young secretary collapsed during the questioning and was placed under sedation.
Police arrested the chauffeur, but Nigerian Police Superintendent R. J. Carter, who is directing the investigation, said "We do not believe he has anything to do with the murder."

One-Room Museum
BIG FOOT, Tex. — (UPI)—One of the nation's smallest museums—a one-room log cabin—commemorates the life and times of William Alexander Anderson Wallace, known as "Big Foot Wallace."
Wallace came from Virginia to Texas in 1836 to avenge the death of his brother by Mexican soldiers during the Texas Revolution. He stayed to become a Texas Ranger captain and to fight Indians after squaring accounts with the Mexicans. Wallace died in 1889, but is remembered by personal belongings, photographs and artifacts of his time that are in the small museum.
