Another man standing nearby also wanted Ted's signature, but the parade started too soon. He turned to the possessor of the autograph and paid him $5 for the sheet.

The parade took on a solemn note when memorial services were held in honor of Edward Callahan, brother of the parade's chairman, Councilor William Callahan. Callahan, a policeman, was killed in 1963 trying to prevent a holdup. Two Vietnam war heroes were also honored, 1st Lt. Anthony J. Sestito and Pfc.

In third place was the defending Music Festival champion, St.

He added that MAPNAC has met with the attorney general and his staff to discuss the possibility of filing suit against the Massachusetts Port Authority. "We are trying to get the attorney general to file a suit against the Port Authority, similar to the one they filed last week on behalf of Boston schools, but this time on behalf of residents. "His office has stated it will conduct a complete investigation and talk with people who allege they have suffered ear damage and have been deprived of normal use of their homes by the noise pollution caused by planes," Falbo said.

Falbo said that his group will meet with members of the attorney general's staff next week. The 10,000 signatures gathered on the MAPNAC petition were from residents of Winthrop, East Boston, Chelsea, Revere, Cambridge, South Boston, Dorchester, Roxbury, Sau-gus, Hopkinton, Wollaston, Lynm and Peabody.

They brought Alan's instruments to the service on white birch logs and pine boughs, they laid his two harmonicas and his guitar, mello gold in the summer afternoon sun.

I Rev. Wilbur D. Canaday Jr. of the Park Avenue Congregational Church read from the Psalms of Thoreau's "Walden" and from "Henry Beston," then Alan's friends and fellow musician's spoke. They included David Maxwell, David Potter and Sue Allen, and they talked about the brilliant young musician, dead at 27, but living in the world of music.

Alan's brother-in-law, William Oswald of New York, told the group that he and others had pledged themselves to carry on the work that next to music was closest to Alan's heart, the preservation of the giant Red Woods Forest of California. Canned Heat had promised $2 million toward the purchase of some acres of those woods and they have already launched their drive for funds, calling it Music Mountain. "Someday," Oswald said, "we hope to dedicate- a memorial to Alan's deeds in that Red Wood Forest." The instruments lay silent on the grass yesterday at Alan Wilson's memorial service, but the words that were spoken echoed through trees like music. "Praise God, with fan fairs on the trumpet upon flute and harp. Praise him with tambourines and dancing with flute and strings praise him triumph cymbals." What better words at a requiem for a rock musician? Nearly 100 friends gathered yesterday afternoon in Menotomy Rocks Park, Arlington, to pay tribute to the young musician who died Sept.

3 in California. Alan was the son of Mr. and Mrs. John C. Wilson of 61 Wollaston Arlington.

He was one of the founders of the famous rock-blues musical group "Canned Heat." And he had written and sung many compositions for that group, among them were two million-sellers "Going Up the Country" and "On the Road Again." Yesterday's memorial service for Alan was held outdoors, beside the pond in the park because, as his father said, "We are using the sky as a roof, the trees as. a well, and the ground as a floor, because he himself no matter what country he was in used nature's great won Five persons were killed and four others were injured in highway accidents reported in New England during the weekend. And a Brookline, woman died in Illinois when her car hit a guardrail. In Fall River the body of Jay B. Martins, 15, was found yesterday on the median strip of Route 24.

Police said the boy was the victim of a hit-and-run driver. Thomas F. McCarthy, 20, of Watertown, was killed in Plymouth Saturday night when the car he was driving overturned. His companion, James Yurkis, 21, of Arlington, is reportedly in serious condition at Jordan Hospital in Plymouth. In Salem, N.H., a two-car crash killed a Massachusetts woman and injured two other persons.
