Judith Ann Neelley, 20, a mother of three, is one of two women on Alabama's death row. She faces the electric chair for the 1981 murder of a girl. At her trial, Neelley testified she shot the girl in the back on orders from her husband after several injections of drain cleaner failed to kill the victim. Neelley also pleaded guilty in the kidnapping of another woman who was ct tional attention parly because the execution of women in the United States, as in other countries, is relatively rare. She was the first woman put to death since the Supreme Court ended its ban on executions in 1976. Since then, 28 men have been executed, 17 of them this year. Eleven states now have women awaiting execution or successful court appeals. No execution dates have been set, according to data maintained by the Legal Defense Fund in new York. The women range in age from a 19- - ear-ol- d senin Mississippi tenced at age 17 whose case is under review, to a woman in Nevada. The majority are in their 20s, and all were convicted of murder. Some killed for money, some for love or the thrill of it, and some for reasons no one has been able to explain. One condemned woman was a school teacher. Another was a topless dancer. also murdered. Authorities claimed Neelley and her husband, Alvin, prowled the streets of Rome, Ga., in 1982 looking for young girls to rape and murder. Maryland has two women on death row.

Boyd Call, Chairman m Hammer I Will Visit Moscow, Chernenko kin 4-YE- AR County Commission We also endorse Ken - LOS ANGELES (UPI) Dr. Armand Hammer, chairman of the board of Occidental Petroleum Corp., said Friday he will go to Moscow in December to confer with Soviet leader Chernenko and lobby for annual summit meetings. Hammer, one of the few American industrialists to enjoy friendly relations with Soviet leaders, disclosed on the CBS Morning News that he had received permission from Moscow to meet with Chernenko. "We need deeds more than words," Hammer said, "and I think the first step was sending Gromyko to see President Reagan and I hope the next step will be a summit meeting. "And when I see President Chernenko, the thing I am going to impress upon him is the need for the future president of the United States and president of the Soviet Union to get together, have these summit meetings and have them a regular thing, perhaps every year, one year in Moscow and another year in Washington." A statement released by Hammer's office in Los Angeles said he has long believed that greater communication between the superpowers is necessary. "I view my meeting with President Chernenko as one more step in that direction." he said. He noted that he had met with Soviet leaders Nikita Khrushchev on behalf of President Kennedy and Leonid Brezhnev for President Nixon, and also had acted as a special emissary for President Carter. "My message to President Chernenko," he said in the statement, "... will be for an increased dialogue between Moscow and Washington stressing trade, cultural and scientific exchanges as a bridge leading to renewed disarmament talks."
