Howland To Get
Sanity Hearing
The trial of Roger B. How
land on first degree murder
charges for the shooting of an
18-y.ear old Marine gt KNS
last October has been delayed
pending psychiatric examina
tion of the man.
The examination was er
dered by Judge J. Earl Cooper
following his arraignment in
Third district court Friday. At
that time William Sanders and
George Grigsby were ap
pointed to defend him.
Howland allegedly shot Ray
mond Cruz Jr. in the civilian
cafeteria at RNS. Wittnesses
said the construction worker
accosted the youth, demand
ing he pay a $5 debt. The wit
nesses said Cruz indicated he
did not know Howland or any
thing about a $5 debt.
Howland was held in the
Kodiak Jail until he was taken
| to Anchorage two weeks ago.

was given that the classes

first aid course two years ago,)

the base. Around 30 KNS'
personnel have expressed a(
willingness to attend the!
classes.
