This paper concerns the class of contractible open 3-manifolds which are "locally finite strong end sums" of eventually end-irreducible Whitehead manifolds. It is shown that whenever a 3-manifold in this class is a covering space of another 3-manifold the group of covering translations must be a fre

## McMillan has shown that every irreducible, contractible, open 3-manifold is the monotone union of handlebodies (only 0-and l-handles) and that there are uncountably many such manifolds. Work by Myers and Wright shows that no irreducible, contractible, open 3-manifold different from I@ can nontr
