They were keeping com- pany under an arrangement with him that he was to divorce his wife and niarry her.\ He called the jury's attention to the fact that no weapon had been foitnd. < , The state troopers' searched with a fine-toothed comb-and they found no weapon. The reason they didn't was that Usiewskl didn't nave any knife. The , local and state police learned that this man (Ltsiewski) had a cut on his hand and they said 'Here's our man' and quit.\ In his opening, Main told the jurors to watch the defendant closely during the trial. \I want you t o - observer him closely. ' Watch his attitude and his conduct on the stand,\ he said. \He is a weak, frail man, broken in' health in the service of his country.\ Engineer WKo Aided On Tupper-OtUwm Rail Survey Dies Cornwall, Dec. 8 — John J.

That was the last time you ever saw him alive?\ Oenaway asked. \Yea. He did not recognise me, •though.\ Mr. Oenaway asked the witness is she hadn't seen Lerro lying be- side the road before he was taken to the hospital and Mr. Main in- terposed an objection, pointing out that the question, in his opinion, was leading. liisa Cluett was allowed to answer it. \Yes I saw him lying near the comer,\ she said. Buttons Are CJoe In his opening before the jury this morning, Prosecutor Genaway Monday morning, Prosecutor Genaway intimated that two but- tons found beside blood marks on tho road would figure prominently in the state's efforts to link Utlewakl with the slaying. \The white shirt the defendant wore win be introduced in evi- he taM the jary. were-two feuttoaa tevttd marks on the road. We will you that there were two but- tons off this shirt and that the buttons found are the same as the buttons still on the shirt.\ He told the jury that the state would also place Llaiewski at the scene at an hour the slaying oc- curred through testimony of a \couple passing the entrance of the veterans' hospital who met a man answering the defendant's description walking fast toward the hospital.\ Blood Trail • Genaway added that the state would show that a hospital at- tendant followed a trail of blood to Lisiewski's room and that he found the defendant in his wash- room trying to stop the flow of blood from a cut on his thumb and that Uslewskl then explained that be was returning from Rein's when someone hit him but that he didn't remember anything that happened. Maurice W. Plumb, Malone engineer, was the first witness called in the case as the state sought to fix in the minds of the jurors the location of the scene of the crime. Mr. Plumb explained the detail of a map which he had prepared of the scene and the defense, on cross examination, took oppor- tunity to Introduce several photo- graphs of the same locality which were marked for identification and passed among the jurors. Model Patient In his outline of the defense, Mr. Main pictured Lisiewski to the jury as a model patient at the Sunmount Veterans' Facility whose only infraction of regula- tions in the three years he \ was there was on the night Lerro was killed when he and a fellow patient left the.hospital to wit- the floor show at Rein'a Rendezvous. \We will be perfectly frank,\ he said to the Jury. \Mr. Lteiew-' ski had drunk some beer and when he went to Rein's, he was under the Influence of beer although not drunk.\ Main said that the defense would show that when Lisiewski left Rein's the floor show* may have been still in progress be- cause \he remembered seeing the master of ceremonies, a cigar in his mouth, in the center \of the dance floor when he left.\ \As he walked along the road someone hit him from behind and tho next thing he knew he was in the hospital,\ Main added. Says Skull Fractured He said that defense witnesses would show that Lisiewaki had, in addition to the cuts and bruises the prosecution had described in the opening, a fracture at the base of his skull.
