I i i X''1 3rd Victim Added To Grisly List JERSEYVILLE.Ill. (AP) Gaunt, soft-spoken James Palmer, who admitted two holdup slayings Saturday, beckoned an officer to his cell yesterday and orally admitted a third killing. Deputy Sheriff Mel Leach said Palmer said he shot a filling station attendant in Humboldt, Sept.

24 during a $100 holdup, but didn't know how badly he was hurt. Leach said Humboldt authorities confirmed 22 -year -old Billy Marshall was found shot to death in a filling station thrre early on A TRANS-CANADA Air Lines Viscount carrying 35 passengers skidded to a safe belly landing yesterday after hovering above Chicago for two tense hours with a faulty landing gear. Similar incidents c-curred at Miami, and Best recollection of Evans, the first balloon was a Santa. One figure saw service as a baseball player, and with changes in pajnt became a fireman and policeman in succeeding years. Average life of a figure is about five years, said Evans.

CONSTRUCTION of the parade balloons is similar to that of nonrigid airships. A single-ply fabric, of long-staple cotton, is coated with a neoprene gum. Engineers plot the patterns, and the pieces are joined with cement. "The key job is done by the painter," said Evans. Stirring buckets for the current job is Ray Hosfield, one of the country's few experts at mixing rubber-based paints.

Evans recalls some exciting times from the days he went to New York for the parade. It would take from midnight until 11 a.m. to fill the bags with helium. Gusts often have threatened to tear the figures from the hands of the 40 men who hold them down. About five years ago a downdraft caught Big Whale at Columbus Circle, and speared it on a lamp post.

The balloon collapsed, and Frank Evans took home the sorriest stringer of fish in the history of the world. Philadelphia. A four-engine National Airlines DC-7 with 45 persons aboard circled Miami Inter Parade in New York. The first parade, 33 years ago, had live animals from the New York Zoo.

A private plane carrying four 7 4 i persons, including a 19-month-old boy, made a safe belly landing in a field of foam at the North Phila delphia Airport yesterday after the craft's landing gear stuck. No one was injured in any of the landings. "He volunteered the statement about the Tennessee holdup," said Leach.

"I just happened to be passing by his cell when he called me over, saying he had something else to tell me." Palmer, 21-year-old sometime hotel bellhop and bridegroom of only a few weeks, signed statements Saturday admitting the slayings of a red-haired waitress in nearby Wood River, 111., and a bait shop owner in St. Louis County, in holdups that netted him a total of $145.

Edmund Gray, 20, cold, dirty, 'and soaking wet, surrendered meekly at an all-night cafe about 3:20 a.m., ending one of year's biggest manhunts in eastern Washington. The youth is accused of killing his estranged wife, Donna, 19, and her parents, Mr.

You are thus not born with your personality but acquire it after birth. But whether you are shy, and inclined to be a daydreamer versus a happy-go-lucky salesman type, depends very largely on your sequence in the family. If two children of the same sex are only a year or two apart in age, the older is more likely to be the introvert. HE IS DUTIFUL and shy, more independent, and less likely to ask a favor. The younger child is more sociable and the easy talker.
