Jurors On Police Prejudice The first-degree murder trial of three youthful gunmen charged with the slaying of (Bummy) Davis in a Canarsie tavern holdup opened this morning before County Judge Samuel S. Leibowitz. Selection of a blue-ribbon jury from a panel of 200 was begun after Judge Leibowitz informed the pro spective Jurors that any one of them "who ever got a traffic ticket and wouldn't believe a cop on a stack of Bibles" must tell the court of his "prejudice." Testimony of policemen is expected to play a prominent part in the trial. 35 Talismen Excused Most of the morning was taken up with presentation by talesmen of legal excuses. In all, 35 were excused, and it was afternoon before the first man was questioned for actual service.

"Bloodshed has started," the Azerbaijan broadcast said. "Azerbai jan troops and armed civilians have been instructed to defend the country to the last." Prince Mozaffar Firouts. Tehran government spokesman, denied that serious fighting had begun in Azerbaijan.

He conceded that a local clash might have occurred. Both Pirouz and high army officers said Premier Ahmed Ghavam had ordered central government troops to refrain from starting a fight. They suggested that Azerbaijan troops might have provoked incidents. Radio Tabriz said central gov ernment troops opened up mortar barrages against two Azerbaijan frontier posts at Sourat and Ba-ghoh-Hehneshin in Zanjan Province. Bepert Kurds Attacked The broadcast said other govern ment troops attacked Kurdish positions in Kurdistan, a mountain ous province adjoining Azerbaijan, three days ago.

The central government troops were repulsed by the Kurdish tribesmen, suffering casualties and losing 37 prisoners, 1, said. (London press reports quoted the Tabriz radio as saying that 15,000 government.Vroops have crossed the Azerbaijan border.) Negotiations between Ghavam and. Azerbaijan representatives led by Jaafar. Pishevari broke down last week' and Ghavam told the TAiited Press he might find it nec essary to use force against the Azerbaijan regime. Martial law was proclaimed throughout Azerbaijan when the attack began, Tabriz said, and a 9 p.m.

curfew was imposed against movement on the Tabriz streets. Sadegh Padegan, leader of the Azerbaijan army, was appointed provincial military governor Mobilise 15,000 Troops United Press correspondent Sam Souki, in a dispatch from Tabriz written Saturday, said approximately 15,000 soldiers, practically the entire strength of the newly recruited Azerbaijan army, had been massed on the southern frontiers to repulse the anticipated attack. Fighting in the rugged frontier areas was expected to be largely of a guerrilla nature. Tehran government troops have been moving into towns near the Azerbaijan frontier for several weeks as Russian troops moved northward. Heavy mountain snows have handicapped troop movements.

American newspaper correspondents reached Tabriz at the end of last week. Souki reported no Russian troops in the provincial capital and said the consensus was that all the Red Army had left the country. Unsuccessful negotiations between Ghavam and the Azerbaijan delegation broke down over the Azerbaijan regime's demand that it appoint its own army commander and governor, while staying nominally within the Iranian national framework Ghavam offered a sevea point program for increasing Azerbaijan autonomy, but refused to grant this demand on grounds that it would sever all Tehran control over the province.

The pleasure involved a few nips from a couple of bottles of liquor found in the office near tiie safe.

Net result was that the pair dallied in the office until a nearby bridge-tender on the Gowanus Canal called police, who caught the two men after a wild, one-sided gun chase during which one of the men was wounded critically. Scene of the comedy-drama was a loft building at 513 Union near 3d Ave. Characters inicluded Joseph Di-Contro, 37, of 400 Henry now in the Kings County Prison ward with a bullet wound in the neck; Frank Bruno, 38, of 475 41st to be arraigned today on charges of possessing burglar tools, burglary and vio lation of the Sullivan Law. Those who took part on the side of Justice were Louis DeCow, tender of the Union St. bridge over the canal; Frank Krue, 34-year-old milk driver of 98-04 60th Ridge-wood, and a flock of coos.

As police reconstructed the setup. the pair entered the building early yesterday morning. First they took 360 from the office of the Brone Toy Manufacturing Company on the first floor.

Quill, New York head of the T. W. sat unconcernedly chewing gum, Mr. Sacher presented petitions bearing 20,000 signatures, he said, calling for an election among the city tran sit employes at the possible date to determine a sole collective bargaining agency. No legal bar stands in the way of negotiation by the Board of Transportation with such a bargaining agency, Mr.

Sacher argued. The Mayors five-member committee was headed by Arthur S. Meyer.
