THE TIMID but agile quarry was finally nabbed Sunday morning by Joseph Welter, 317 Reese who enticed it from tree in front of his home and put it in a box. City Dog Warden Franklin Snyder took it into custody.

The bring-it-back alive safari formed at 813 Perry shortly after 2 p.m. Saturday when Marold Sloan, 802 Perry, called police to report the monkey swinging through the branches of a tree at that location. POLICE WERE unable to persuade the animal to give up its airy perch, and finally called William Rolf, 1117 Fifth owner of another monkey of the same species. MONKEYSMNES over Rolf brought his animal to the scene in hopes of enticing the stray into captivity, but the tiny quarry apparently frightened by the large crowd which had gathered to cheer the hunters and the hunted, paid no attention to it. HOLE SAID he thought he could nab the critter it only he had a ladder.

The fire department's aerial ladder was rushed to the spot to aid the monkey expert, but the moment it was run up to the tree the fuzzy mammal disappeared. Outwitted after a three-hour hunt, the police, firemen, dog warden Snyder and Rolf left the scene without seeing their quarry again. NO OTHER reports on the animal were received by police until after 9 a.m. Sunday, when Welter phoned to say he had it in captivity. The animal is being held by a local pet shop until its owner shows up.

Atlanta Mayor Flies To Jet Death Scene Mayor Ivan Allen had set out Atomic-Tip Missile Destroyed In Flight on his sad journey soon after an Air France jetliner crashed back to earth as it took off Sunday and burst into flame. A total of 130 persons were 121 passengers, 8 crewmen and Air France's Atlanta agent. Investigators studied reports indicating the plane developed some trouble as it roared down the Orly Field runway for its takeoff and the pilot tried unsuccessfully to brake to a halt. All the passengers were Americans and most were from Atlanta and of the Atlanta Art Association en route home with happy memories and mementoes of a three-week tour of European art galleries and cultural sites. Only two Air France DeGaulle Softens Toward British PARIS two-day meet- well as the privileges of the ing between President Charles de Gaulle and Prime Minister Harold reportedly has wiped away many French objections to Britain's entry into the flourishing European Common Market.

A joint communique issued aft- the community of interests linking the two nations must influence negotiations between Britain and the six continental states on British membership in the economic community. French officials indicated the talks, which placed new emphasis on British-French comradeship, had cleared away many of France's doubts about bringing Britain into the Common Market. British sources confirmed this as Macmillan returned to London. They expressed satisfaction at the reaffirmation of the long-standing community of interest between the two nations. France has put up most of the hurdles in negotiations for Britain's market membership.

De Gaulle has insisted Britain would Treaty of Rome which set up the Common Market. France and her partners in the economic community Belgium, West Germany, Italy, Luxem bourg and the lowering tariff barriers to each other's products while erecting a common tariff wall against outsiders.

They also discussed the general world situation, including West Berlin and U.S.

seated in the tail end of the big Boeing flung to safety in the flaming crash at Orly Field outside Paris. A steward was pulled alive from the flaming wreckage but died in a hospital. Mayor Allen hurried to inspect the scene of the accident immediately after his arrival in another Boeing 707. He said that along with identification of the bodies he would also arrange for their transport home. The mayor was accompanied by Edwin Stem, assistant city attorn- ney of Atlanta.

They were met by officials of Air France, Orly Air port, the Paris city council, the foreign ministry and the ministry of public works. Pretty Francoise Authie, one of the hostesses, said: "It was so fast. So sudden. I didn't have time to realize what was going on." Witnesses said Capt. Roland Hoche, one of Air France's most experienced pilots, apparently tried frantically to halt the airliner after engine trouble developed as it roared down the run way, but the plane was going too fast.

W. P. Kennedy, head of the 105,000 member union who called the meeting here, said Sunday the merger would create "economic mayhem for the eastern half of the nation. It's like stripping a main vein from a healthy person." The head of the biggest of five operating unions urged an Interstate Commerce Commission probe of what he called "this messy retrenchment plan." He charged the consolidation of the two giant eastern systems was an attempt by financial manipulators to "make money out of misery and decay." States involved are Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, New York, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and Missouri.

"FAITH DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE," Rev. Tom Wedsworth tells Sandusky High graduates at baccalaureate services Sunday. Cathedral window was part of high school auditorium stage setting. (Register Photo Wilfred Randall) By MARY It UN AN Register Staff Writer Simulated stained glass windows, palms, and purple lighting set the stage Sunday night for Sandusky High School's 1962 baccalaureate service in the high school auditorium. Kern's "Temple March" set the processional tempo for 274 of the 294 graduates clad in caps and gowns for a Christian religious service, which, according to school authorities is not compulsory.

AND THE REV. BRUCE HARRIS of the Salem EUB Church set the theme of the evening when lie read excerpts from the Apostle Paul's letter to (lie Colossians in which ho said: ''Set your affections on things above and not on earth." The same quotation was used repeatedly by the Rev. Tom Wedsworth of the First Presbyterian Church, in his sermon, "It Does Make a Difference," in which he tried to dramatize to the graduating students the necessity for faitli in a world of secularism "which gives rise to pressures in opposition to faith in God." AS AN EXAMPLE, he cited the remark of Russian astronaut Gherman'Titov that in orbit "I saw neither heaven nor God." "Everyone knows the profound religious faith of our own astronauts," Rev. Wedsworth said, "The obvious difference between these two is the basis for our consideration this evening. "It does make a difference whether or not we have faith in the Eternal God," Rev.

Wedsworth described the Colossians to whom St. Paul addressed his epistle as a small group of people in early Greece who had just experienced a profound reawakening of their religious faith. "AT THE SAME TIME, however, they lived amidst two great influences in opposition to their new faith. One was the mighty Roman Empire, the other was the Greek Hellenistic culture.

An Amherst man is in St. Joseph Hospital, Lorain, with a broken nose and multiple cuts and bruises about the face, as a result of the fight. He is Ronald Shagie, 20, listed in "fairly good" condition. A Huron man, Joseph C. Story, 27, was treated at Fisher-Titus Hospital, Norwalk, for deep cuts on his right wrist and fingers, Bernasek said the two companions who brought Story to hospital were covered with their friend's blood.

Thev had to overpower him before he would accompany them. Story was charged with intoxication and disorderly conduct by Huron County deputies after he fought with the hospital staff members attempting to treat him. The third man injured at the. Sorrento was Donald Clary, 23 Birmingham, lie suffered a brok en finger he claimed was caused while he was using his hands to protect his face from swinging beer bottles. Bernasek, who is investigating the donnybrook, said as far as he can determine, more than 20 persons were involved.

In all, three fights took place, he said, the last one the most serious. It occurred just before 1 a.m. closing time Sunday. Shagie, most seriously injured, had been dancing with a girl when he and his friend were jumped by a group of other young men. i The brawl flared up again aiuij died later.

Betancourt said more than 100 persons and possibly 200 had been killed in putting down a rebellious marine garrison in the port city Ii5 miles west of Caracas. Unofficial reports of casualties ran as high as 400 dead and 1,200 wounded, with losses heavy on both sides. The government announcement that the rebellion had ended came with the surrender of top rebel navy officers, but fighting still raged in the old city. Communists, other left-wing extremists and marine diehards held out with automatic weapons in 18th century buildings put up originally to withstand pirate attacks. The government damped Strata Blast Halted HONOLULU (AP) A malfunction In the tracking system of a Thor missile caused failure early today of a attempt to detonate a high-altitude nuclear vice above Johnston Island.

The missile was destroyed hi flight only 100 seconds before its nuclear warhead was to be exploded. The warhead fell harmlessly into the Pacific and sank. The Atomic Energy Commission and the Defense Department said there was no danger to personnel on Johnston Island or elsewhere in the mid-Pacific test zone. As the Thor Atom nearcd the firing to be 30 to 40 safety officer of Joint Task Force 8 ordered the rocket destroyed. The announcement said only that the tracking system malfunctioned.

Radios monitoring the countdown picked up the Thor launch at 4:45 a.m., EST. Then, with one minute and 40 seconds left, a voice was heard shouting "negative, negative, negative." There was no further word. There had been two hours of delays before launching of the planned sub-megaton blast. A megaton is equal to one million tons of TNT. The failure "followed two 24-hour postponements of the the first of three or four blasts in the current Pacific series.

The postponements were not officially explained but reports in Honolulu blamed cloudy weather and possible technical difficulties. Joint Task Force 8 had no word on when another shot will be attempted. "They want to analyze this one before they say anything further." a spokesman said. The United States went ahead with the shot despite a Soviet government charge from Moscow Sunday that the test would "carry the nuclear arms race into outer space." The Moscow complaint said the high-altitude blast could disrupt communications, endanger future astronaut flights and "change the weather." A spokesman for Joint Task Force 8 said, "let them complain. They know more about these tests than we do.
