Police Seek Accomplice In Kidnaping PROM PAGE 1 locked in with th'e dejected prisoner to guard against any suicide attempt. LaMarca was charged with kid- naping the 32-day-old infant from the patio of Mr. and Mrs. Morris Weinberger's ranch home in Westbury, N.Y. LaMarca was quoted by police as saying he abandoned the child the next day after he panicked in a vain attempt to collect $2,000 in rarfsom to meet a pile of debjs.

Searchers found the decomposed remains of the infant Friday in underbrush near a heavily travel, ed Long Island parkway a half mile north of the LaMarca home in PlainvieWi 'Even if the child was alive when it was placed bn the ground, it may well constitute murder," said Dist: Atty. Frank Gulotta. Under New York law a person who causes a death while committing a felony is liable to first degree murder charges, punishable by death in the electric chair. Kidnaping also carries a maximum penalty of death in the electric chair. The parents, Morris Weinberger, 48, a prosperous drug salesman, and wife, Betty, 32, had never given up hope through all the desperate weeks since the kidnap- ing that their baby was still alive.

Friends said their reactibn to the news was very severe! They have an older son. LaMarca was arrested early Thursday at his home. He was tracked down after a painstaking FBI search through more than two million handwriting samples. The ransom note bore certain handwriting quirks'. FBI men finally found matching peculiarities in LaMarca's signature in federal district court records in New York City.

LaMarca received a suspended sentence year bn a bootlegging charge. 100,000 See Fair Opening FROM PAGE 1 i tiie dedication of the new million- dollar Youth. Center. At the Youth Day ceremony were Gov. Lausche, singing cowboy Roy Rogers, and about 3,000 spectators.
