Richard P. Kluckhohn, son of Clyde K.M. Kluckhohn, professor of Anthropology, drew a one to two year sentence Monday for the slaying of a woman shopper behind a Raleigh, N.C., hotel.
Kluckhohn pleaded nolo contendere (no contest) to a charge of involuntary manslaughter. Last June he was sentenced to five to ten years for the same pistol shooting on May 13 of Miss Bernice Seawell of Arlington, Va. He appealed the conviction to the North Carolina Supreme Court, which granted him a new trial because the judge's charge to the jury was found faulty.
Kluckhohn admitted that his German Luger had discharged while he was in Raleigh as the representative of a publishing firm. At the time, however, he did not believe that the shot had caused any harm. When he learned of the death he called the incident a "horrible accident."
