Performance

Sydney, Mar. 3.

Australia finished today's play in the fifth and final Test match here 91 runs behind the MCC's total of 280 for the loss of four wickets.

"Beardless Bluebeard" Admits Sex Murders

Tokyo, Mar. 3

Yoshio Kodaira, Oriental beardless Bluebeard, to

day denied he had committed ten sex murders "I only killed seven," he said. As the anaemic, lean little Japanese went on trial charged with ten rape-murders, Kodaira told the Court the police had miscounted his victims and then went on to describe the first of a series of sex crimes that baffled the police for more than a year.
