Flea markets popular
item after Ch-ristmas
By SANDRA L. LATIMER
United Press International
Now that Christmas is over
and you're dismantling the
Christmas tree and putting
away the gifts, it's a good
time to do some general
sorting out of items you no
longer want.
Many people gather these
items for a flea market - a
chance to turn their
unwanted items into .cash.
That's what happens at the
Aurora Auction and Farmers
Market from 8 am . to 5 p.m.
Wednesday, Saturday and
Sunday . It is located on U.S.
43 south of Route 82.
The auction and market
began in 1929 on a farm where
the fanner brought cattle to
sell. Soon other merchants
to
sell
showed
up
merchandise and produce to
the Iarmer.
Today as many as 450
people set up shop over six
acres, offering a variety of
goods, and as many as 10,000
to 12,000 buyers and

"browsers".

and sell their crafts.
Nero makes it simple for
people to set up shop.
"We tell everyone to loads
things in the car, come out
and set up," he explains.
"They just set up and start
selling.''

He collects $4 lor stand
rental for the day.
Another auction not too far
away from Aurora ia the
Hartville Flea Market.
This started as the
Hartville Egg Auction in 1939,
a livestock auction where
cattle and chickens were
sold.
The sale of livestock was
discontinued several years
ago, and the sale of eggs and
produce was discontinued a
couple of years ago, leaving
the facility with a flea
market, open year-round

others are taken on a firstcome, firStserve basis as long

A nominal fee is charged
for sellers, "a couple of dollar

Charles de Gaulle, Richard Nixon 1111d Jimmy Carter are
not the names of world leaders coming immediately to
mind as having much else of significance in commo11.
It could be argued, however, that tliere is one aapect of
the Carter anti-inflation crusade that does recall the de
Gaulle and Nixon situations at othettlmes on other issues.
It is the understatement of the year's end to say that the
president's new economic policy - new, that is, _ for
Democrats conditioned to expansion in the public sector
rather .than retrenchment - has not brought the party's
power brokers into the streets cheering.
Led by George Meany, if that is the word for his
perfo~ance, labor maintains a running fire on wage
guidelines. Organized minorities won't hear of sca~g
down programs tailored to their interests: Democratic
congressional leaders are reacting as If asked to subscribe
to a memorial to Herbert Hoover.
The president did score some technical points at the
party mid-term convention in Memphis. He and his
program received a vote of confidence. But It was
grudging and prompted In large part by the fact, as
Democrats are cont-inually being reminded, that he is
currently the only president they've got. It was clear
where the real sentiment of the delegates lay - with those
who spoke out with varying degrees of passion for
continuation of the party's commitment to social programs. And in particular with Sen. Edward Kennedy, _.
whose ringing call to action on a national health plan ~
brought the cht:ering house down.
,
It may be that the senator spoke completely from the
heart. But in their impact his words veered close to
demogoguery, appealing to Demilcratic emotion rather
than reason. What is largely overlooked by defenders of
the party faith is that a policy of expanding social
programs requires a sound and expanding ·economy to
sustain it. That is not the description for near double-digit
inflation, a yo-yoing dollar and massive trade imbalances.
For a graphic example of the consequences of legislating
a vast social-welfare system without the means to pay for
it, one need only look to the Britain of the past several

If the Democrats want to blame a president for their and
the economy's present plight, they might better look to
l:yndon Johnson . rather !han Jimmy Carter. Today's
inflation has its roots in the Johnson administration which
sought to construct a costly Great Society while fighting a
foreign war without paying for it.
'l'Wo successive Republican presidents chose to ignore
the consequent economic dislocation, or to deal with it
primarily through rhetoric. Had they sought retrenchment
to the extent now being pursued, stalemate with Democratic Congresses would have been the likeliest result. At
worst, they would have risked identifying themselves in
the public view with the Hoover legacy from the Great
Depression.

his favor. His post-Camp David public standing is still
fairly high. He continues to be given high marks for
personal integrity and as a leader who, according to a
recent Harris poll, "feels deeply about less-privileged
people and is genuinely trying to help."
. It has been said of Charles de Gaulle, the war hero, that
he was the only man who could 'have solved France's
Algerian agony by the most decisive means- withdrawal,
which the French military would never have accepted
from a civilian head of government.

Knicks drop 71;2
games off pace
United Press International
Red Holzman had good
reason to be angry.
The New York Knicks lost ,
109-94, to the Philadelphia
76ers Monday, dropping the
Knicks 71'.1 games behind
first-place Washington in the
Atlantic Division.
"W~ gave the ball away 15
times in the first half alone,"
the New York coach said.
"You can't d? that and will ."
Holzman hinted a shakeup
in the starting lineup may be '
in store Wednesday when
New York faces the New
Jersey Nets.
"Our best team tonight was
Toby Knight, Jim Cleamons,
Spencer Haywood, Glen Gondrezick and Mike Glenn,"
Hol:rman added. "Not aU of
th.e m are starters. I'll think
ahoutitand decide (about the
lineup) before the Nets
game ."
Julius Erving led the 76ers

with 22 points as Philadelphia
moved within a game of the
Bullets by winning its sixlh
game in the last seven. Doug
Collins added 16 points and
Bobby Jones and Darryl
Dawkins had 14 each. The
high scorer for the ' Knicks
was Ray Williams with just
14. New York's Bob McAdoo
was held to 11 points by
Jones.
Philadelphia Coach Billy
Cunningham said he liked the
overall flow of the team.
"Give the credit to Henry
Bibby, Darryl Dawkins and
Bobby Jones," he said. " We
played great defense for
three quarters and that
creates offense."

Valuable paintings pinched
SAN FRANCISCO (UP!) Burglars eased through a
skylight not attached to the
alarm system and dropped
into an unguarded gaUery in
order to steal a $1 million
Rembrandt at a Golden Gate
Park museum, police say.
Three other 17th-century
Dutch paintings worth a combined $60,000 also were stolen
in the Christmas Eve heist
that wasn't discovered until
Monday.
The theft of Rembrandt's
" Portrait of a Rabbi" was the
biggest loss in the history of
San Francisco's Fine Arts
Museums. Also missing were
"modest" works by Delorme,
Van de Vale and Van der ·
Neer.
The thieves unscrewed the
pane of wire-reinforced glass
skylight and dropped into a 6foot-crawl space that led to
the gaUery ceiling. There,
they removed a grate and
either lowered themselves by
rope or leaped the 12 feet to
the gallery floor , said M.H.
DeYoung Museum director
Ian White .
White said the burglars
escaped by the same route
after taking the paintings
from the waD of GaUery 12.
He said they used a 61J0i&gt;ound
18thcentury walnut chest as a
stepladder.

A second Rembrandt,
" Portrait of Joris de
CauUery," also valued at
about $1 miWon was removed
from the gaUery waD but left

Long ago, she had lost count
of days.
No welcome knock upon her
front door,
Not even a stranger had
stopped along the way.
No footsteps but her own, hit
upon her floor.
Just Mary Rose.
And so the days and nights
had passed.
Acustomed she became,
To the stillness, darkness,
saddness:
For years no voice had called
her name.
Alone, Just Mary Rose.
But tonight, as she had left
her solitary plate,
untouched-upon the table,
There came the sound of
thumping, thumping,
Against the bolt and cable.
,"Alone - Just Mary Rose ..

Shivering, nearly frozen,
from the cold,
A once red Fox Jay there,
His half starved frame and
glassy eyes. Cried for some one to care.
Just Mary Rose.

There came a time when both

Body search continues
CHICAGO (UP!) - Police
investigating John Wayne
Gacy, suspected of the sex
.s]ay(Jigs of as many as 32
teensge boys, have received
hundreds of telephone calls
from parents who believe
their missing children may
be among the victims.
Authorities have set up a
central command to receive
queries from parents, some
as far away as England and
Australia. Police asked the
anxious parents to provide
dental charts of the children .
Investigators today
returned to their task of
dragging rivers and digging
·itl the/ crawl space beneath
Gacy'~ house in search of
more victims.
Police have recovered five
decomposed bodies from the
· muddy crawl space and
marked at least 20 more
depressions before breaking
for the holidays Saturday .

Gacy, 36, has been charged
with the murder of Robert
Pies!, 15. Police said Gacy
admilted during .questioning
he buried 26 victims beneath
hi s
home
in
an
unincorporated area near

suburban Norridge and
dwnped at least six others
into the Des Plaines River
southwest of Chicago.
The skulls and teeth uncovered were in good condition
and identification should be
relatively easy, investigators
said.
.
Gacy, a stocky , self·
employed contractor, is
suspected of molesting and
strangling the youths.
Fiest of suburban Des
Plaines disappeared from the
Nisson Pharmacy Monday,
Dec. II, after telling his
mother he planned to talk to
Gacy about a part-time
construction job.
?test's corpse was lying !n

the attic of the house as
investigators quizzed Gacy
about
the
youth's
disappearance, Police said
Sunday.
.
Des Plaines Police Lt .
Joseph Kozenczak told the
Chicago Sun-Times· officers
decided to give the Pies! case
more than a usual .missingpersons investigation
because the youth appeared
to be a "straight kid." Gacy's
nsme first came up when
officers went back to the
pharmacy to talk to the

Knowledge of the sodomy
conviction brought them back
to
Gacy's home on
Wednesday, this time with a
search warrant. The link to
?test came when officers
discovered a roll of film
Piest's
belonging
to
girlfriend.
Gacy told Kozenczak that
Piest's body was lying In the
attic over his living room the
first time investigators came
to his house. He said after
officers left, he hastUy took
the body out and dumped it
into the Des Plaines River.

Police unearth six more bodies
By ROBERT MACKAY
CHICAGO
(UP! )
Authorities said today"-the
skeletal remains of a "lOth·
hody have been uncovered at
the home of John Wayne
Gacy , charged with one
slaying and suspected of
sexually assaulting and
ldlllng as many as 32teen-age
boys and young men.
Dr. Robert Stein, Cook
County medical examiner,
said the upper arm bone of a
lOth victim was found
Tuesday in the muddy crawl
space under the ranch-style

home.

Stein aaid he expected the
remains to be removed todsy
as excavation work beneath
the house resumed.
He said tbe remains were
"definitely" a lOth victim
because they were spotted a
few feet from the makeshift
graves of five other bodies
removed from the hou se
Tuesday.
Since excavation be gan
Friday, skeletal remains of
nine bodies have been foWJd
in the 3().inch crawl space
beneath Gacy's brick-and·
wood home in northwest
suburban Norwo od Park
Township and another has
been found beneath the
cement floor of the garage buUt by Gacy three years
ago ,
Yet another body, found
last month in the Des Plaines

River some 50 miles
southeast of the Gacy home ,
also may be linked to Gacy,
·
authorities said.
Stein also said "there are
indications " there are more
bodies buried beneath the
home.
"! feel there will be more
bodies, " Chi ef Edmund
Dobbs of the Cook County
sheriff's police said after tbe
search was halted at sWJsel
Tuesday. "! don't want to
speculate (on how many)."
Gacy, a pudgy 31&gt;-year-old
building contractor who
. sometimes entertained
children with his clown act ,
was considered personable
' and friend ly by his neighbors.
. But at least one neighbor
woridered ahoul the stream of
teen-age boys Gacy had
working at the contracting
firm he operated out of his
house .
He told curious neighbors
he hired the boys, then fired
them because they could not
do the job. But police fear
that, instead, he sexually
molested and killed the
youths .
Gacy, charged Friday with
the murder of one missing
youth, reportedly told
authorities he has killed as
many as 32 teen-age boys and
young men after having
sexual relations with them.
He allegedly told police 26 or
