Jurors chosen for the drunk-driving manslaughter trial of Olympic diver Bruce Kimball included a man whose daughter is a president of Students Against Drunk Drivers.

Four men and two women plus an alternate were picked after 2 days of intense questioning, thus precluding having to move proceedings because of excessive publicity. Opening statements were set to begin today at Tampa, Fla.

The last of the six jurors chosen, William Sherman, a postal worker and former Air Force sergeant, told attorneys that his daughter was chapter president of SADD at her high school in Brandon, a Tampa suburb where the fatal accident occurred last Aug. 1.
