Is Dead In

HOLLYWOOD (AP) — Jerry Giesler, the lawyer film stars called for when in trouble, died in his sleep Monday. He was 75. | Giesler had been in. hospital \several times for heart ail-

Beverly Hills home.

Despite illness, Giésler still managed te mastermind impor- . tant cases. An associate did the courtroom work, but he called signals in the defence of his last .|major case: the defence of

Carole Tregoff im the three Finch murder trials.

For nearly, five dec ades he was a leading light in California criminal law, becoming almdst ‘as famous as those he repre-; ; sented.

His specialty was .crimes of passion, and the movie colony kept him busy. His clients in- cluded Charlie Chaplin, Errol |Flynn, Robert Mitchum; Dara | Tyrner, Mickey Cohen | DIVORCES TOO + -He handled divorces for 7Z;a ,Zsa Gabor, Barbara Hutton, Marilyn Monroe, Bette Davis and Shelley .Winters. He repre- sented Marie MacDonald when her story of. being kidnapped prompted a police inquiry.

Though he spent nis life 'among -the glamorous, no glit- ter rubbed off on him. He wa

Some highlights of his career:

The Alexander Pantages case, his first big one. The: theatre Magnate was accused of raping

‘a 17-year-old . girl. ‘Giesler’s at-

tempts to show she had a. du-

‘bious past were blocked, and

Pantages got 50 years. But Gies- ler used his blocked questions as the basis of an appeal. ard won: SETS PRECEDENT

The case set a preceten: That in rape cases, the vattera of the girl's conduct was rele- vant. Thirteen years later Gies- ler made: use of it-is defending

Perhaps his most sensational case was the dann Act trial cf Chaplin, then movieland's Master comic.

One day it may be a military spy, veiled in secrecy.

Another day, its a dowdy lite drudge of science.

You'll see it in many roles during the next 10 vears, either as a Satellite or part of a rocket to the moon.

Close to 400 of these vehicles are expected to be launched into space during that period by various U.S. agencies. They cos! $3,000,000 apiece *

Agena is the manufacturer's name for a mass - produced space rocket. deliberately de signed to be adaptable for many uses. AS such, it has miany

When it carries a bomb-sized capsule to be dropped in a test fange, it is called Discoverer

Agena is the only US. satei- lite so far to draw the wrath of the Soviet, Union

Eleven days after the July i2, 1961, launching of Midas ITI, first of its type to go into orbit over Russia, the Soviet Army newspaper Red Star compared such satellites to the ill-fated U-2 spy plane and warned:

“It doesn't matter at what altitude the spies are flying. they remain spies and the flight of a sputnik over foreign terri- tory is an act of aggression.”

The United States has been firing Agenas into trans-Russian. orbits for almost three years— the first was Feb 28, 1959, as the upper stage of Discoverer |
