1 2-A THE MIAMI HERALD Mon July 17 1972 Reputed Mafia Chief Slain in NY Mental Strain Ulcers Linked In Experiment Gallo was said to have been behind the shooting of Colombo at an Italian-American Unity Day rally in Columbus Circle in June 1971 1 Federal authorities have identified Eboli as an underboss in the Genovese family while the late Genovese himself known as the of was in prison for bankrolling a narcotics smuggling operation State Investigation Commission sources said poor health prevented him from gaining the top spot in the mob after death in prison in 1969 Eboli was arrested in 1963 on a charge of assulting a referee in Madison Square Garden after a boxer he managed lost a fight He also was taken into custody In a police raid four years later after the so-called little Apalachian meeting of organized crime leaders HE WAS A subject of a 1969 New York State Crime Commission probe of incursions by organized crime into legitimate businesses He collapsed while preparing to appear before the commission and had to be hospitalized Since then he has contended that he was too ill to appear before hearings of the New Jersey State Investigation Commission probing activities of organized crime in legitimate businesses and before the Waterfront Commission in New York There were some reports that Eboli first-became involved in gambling extortion and strong-arm tactics on the waterfront He later went into the vending machine busi- ness in Greenwich Village and allegedly took over some reputed Genovese restaurant interests NEW YORK (AP) Shot five times in the face Thomas (Tommy Ryan) Eboli top Mafia figure and underboss for the late Vito Genovese was found dead early Sunday in what police indicated was a gangland slaying Police said Eboli 61 apparently had been taken a by other mobsters and was cut down in a burst of gunfire at about 1 am as he struggled to get out of the car His body clad in a blue jumpsuit was found sprawled on a sidewalk in the quiet Crown Heights section 'of Brooklyn surrounded by broken blood-stained glass from a car window Police said he had more than $2000 mostly in $100 bills onhim THEY THEORIZED that when Eboli realized what was about to happen he tried to force his way from the car They said at least two shots from a small caliber gun hit him while he was in the vehicle A witness told authorities that at about that time he saw flashes near a truck in the area and heard a man say get out of here" The truck apparently stolen was found abandoned with its engine running about a block from body The murder of Eboli was the latest in a series of shootings involving reputed underworld figures that began more than a year ago with the wounding of Joseph A Colombo Sr identified by authorities as head of the Profaci Cosa Nostra family in Brooklyn SIX ALLEGED underworld figures in- eluding Joseph (Crazy Joe) Gallo were slain within 12 days in New York this spring Press Wlrephot Weapon Found in Assassination of Thomas Eboli sub-machinegun was discovered in auto parked near slaying scene who was slain in a hotel barber shop in 1957 Eboli a native of Italy reportedly got his start in the underworld in 1932 when he attended the wedding of Joseph Valachi whose testimony before federal probers closed much of the structure of organized crime in the United States IN 1969 IT was estimated by some sources that Eboli was in charge of 450 racketeers and semilegitimate businessmen in the New York-New Jersey area Early in his career he was alleged to be the muscleman for various crime figures and the chauffeur for mobster Albert Anastasia Challenger Fischer Has Edge By RONALD KOTULAK Miami Htraltf-Clucsa Tribun Wira CHICAGO More than 10000 Americans die annually from perforated ulcers and one of every 10 persons will get at least one ulcer sometime in his life What causes the stomach r-mmir to eat at itself mtDICINt Ulcers have been called a disease of modern man because of the hectic pace he leads but the big question has been whether the brain or the body causes this selfcannibalism In an attempt to resolve this riddle Dr Jay Weiss a psychologist at Rockefeller University set up an experiment to find out whether physical or psychological stress causes more ulcers in animals It had two parts: Physical stress A rat' hears a tone that precedes an electric shock by 10 seconds and learns it can stop the shock by jumping to a platform Psychological stress A rat hears the same tone but can do nothing to stop the shock It is wired to rat A and gets the shock only if A jump fast enough Weiss found that rat which is helpless to control its situation will get three times the number of ulcers that rat A which can control the shock will get even though they both experience the same shock This may be of considerable interest to the more than 10 million Americans with ulcers because it provides some of the first concrete evidence that psychological stress is more important in producing ulcers than physical stress Scientists have long ar- gued about the influence of the mind in producing disease A whole field of psychosomatic diseases has grown up based primarily on the observations of physicians who have intuitively linked emotions to physical disorders POSITIVE PROOF has been lacking For years now researchers have been able to produce ulcers in animals by subjecting them to physical stress A typical method is forcing a rat to swim in a tank with no means of escape Invariably the animals develop lethal ulcers The question remains however whether it is their fear of drowning or the physical exertion of attempting to stay afloat that produces the ulcers In Dr classical experiment the question was answered Psychological stress appears to be far more deadly Press

opened with a typical Fischer defense the Nimzo-Indian merging into the Benoni counters 8 a strong play for domination of the center of the board where most kills are made and most games won The boy

leaned back swivelled in his chair leaned forward and moved rook to king two It was the 23rd move Spassky moving his 24th moved queen to queen three In other words he mounted his defense attack was effectively over From then on he defended moving slowly Fischer moved rapidly Hs had the key square of the board kjng five covered with a full four pieces Spassky had no chance of pushing forward his vital pawn to convert For three moves he shuffled one rook up and down reduced to passivity Then for one moment it looked as if he had the chance of mate But Fischer moved one piece and at once sgained the initiative That was the 35th move Six moveh later it was over for the day Maryland Troopers Quell Riot Rat A was able to control the shock and basically was only physically stressed on the other hand could not predict when the shock would start or stop and so was subjected to phsycholog-ical stress The feeling of helplessness is the key to developing ulcers he said Based on his experiments Dr Weiss developed a theory that the more a person tries to cope with a stressful situation and the lower is his control over that situation the greater will be his chance of getting ulcers The findings of the experiments clearly showed that it was the ability or inability to predict the outcome of a stressful situation that determined the extent of ulcers he said THE DEGREE OF psychological stress in any situation can be determined by so-called coping behavior he said The harder the animal tries to find a solution to the problem the greater is the stress His ulcer risk will depend on his success in finding a solution If a person tries hard to get out of a stress situation but fails his chances of developing an ulcer are the greatest Another person in the same situation who finds a solution funs a small ulcer risk The most important part of the theory is relevant feedback Dr Weiss said This feedback tells the person under stress that he is doing the right thing to solve the problem To prove this point Dr Weiss designed another experiment It was similar to the first one except that rat A instead of jumping to a platform to stop a shock had to spin awheel After the wheel was spun a different tone would sound indicating that the electric shock was postponed for 200 seconds Again rat A was wired to rat which had no control or relevant feedback would get the same shock as A if A slipped up The results were dramatic Rat A had practically no ulcers while rat continued to have the high rate as before The tone signal rat A heard after it spun the wheel was like a pat on the back telling the animal it had done the right thing Dr Weiss explained THIS IS AN important clue in preventing ulcers for it says that a person may be able to avoid ulcers if he gets positive feedback in a stressful situation that normally would produce damage to his stomach Human experiments conducted at the State University of New York at Stony-brook tend to support this conclusion Two groups of people were given the same shock Neither group had control over the shock but the persons in first group were told that by clenching their fists they could stop it The members of the second group were asked simply to clench their fists and that the shock was inescapable Using techniques employed in lie detectors the investigators found that the group that thought it had control had far less emotional arousal than the helpless group Further research indicates that the inability to cope with a stressful situation may be linked to depression Dr Weiss said Biochemical tests on the animals show that two important brain chemicals epinephrine and norepinephrine become depleted in the failure animals Other investigators have pointed out that low levels of these two neurotransmitters are associated with depression in both humans and animals THE MOST ULCER-prone job in the world appears to be that of the air traffic controller the men who guide the landings and takeoffs of planes at busy airports and their position in the A study by Dr Richard Grayson of St Charles 111 of 111 controllers in the Chicago area disclosed that one-third of the controllers had peptic ulcers and another third were on their way to developing them This rate far exceeds the ulcers found in other jobs Surveys show that the ulcers for physicians is 1 1 per cent alcoholics 11 per cent coronary patients 9 per cent rural workers 10 per cent and lawyers 1 1 per cent Controllers live under enormous pressure that they cannot often control Airplanes keep coming Controllers regard
