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

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

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

young men after having
sexual relations with them.

United Press International
Pennsylvania state police
said two . shooting incidents
app:ll'entlY related to tbe,
strike by independent steel
haulers were reported in
Somerset . County Tuesday
night and early this morning.
A state police spokesman
said both incidents occurred
on

Turnpike, with· neither
resulting in any injury. One
shot was fired into the side of
·a truck from a passing car,
while two shots were fired
into the front of another truck
from an overpass. Damage
was minimal.
Meanwhile, the Fraternal
Association of Steel Haulers
and the nation's leading steel
companies awaited a ruling
on whether the striking steel
haulers are in contempt of a
1971 injunction.
Court sources said u.s .
District
Judge
Louis
Rosenberg was drafting his
decision on a suit filed by the
seven major ste el firms
asking that F ASH be found in
contempt.
The sources said a decision
was imminent, but that they

would be rendered.

contending it was not

government."

Long before 'their investigation was completed, Solomon
and his aides were offering irresponsible public predic·
tions about how many wrongdoers would face criminal
indictments.
"We have been reprimanded a great deal, trying to
speculate on indictments," the chastened GSA head later
admitted to a House subconunittee chaired by Rep. John
L. Burton, D-Callf.
But during that same trip to Capitol Hill, Solomon again
transgressed the bounds of propriety with an overstated
claim of " fraud, corruption and outright thievery ..~ (that
have ~ become a way of life at GSA ."
That hyperbole was too much for Burton, who suggested
that "what you described was not corruption as a way of
life but a system that would allow corruption maybe to go
undetected."
The GSA administrator promptly acquiesced to the more
responsible and restrained description of the situation at
his agency.
Solomon's seemingly insatiable appetite for publicity·
generating exaggeration has become an object of derision
among his peers in government.
"Too much of hls investigation is a 'hype,' " says one
knowledgeable federal official. _:•His remedies are based
on what plays in the papers, not what's needed for a
massive government operation.''
Government Executive, a magazine for federal officials,
recently examined the antics at GSA, and concluded :
"Industry observers are wondering whether the agency
can survive much longer without a full·time , professional
administrator.''

rewrite it, Simon Instead found hlmaelf chronicling an earlier
stage In the life of the same character, young and struggling In

Academy Award for Rlcbanl Dreylal. It demanded a sequel,

Dear Lynn:

I promised to send you a copy of the previous Library

~Iter addressed to you, but guess which of my letters is not in

the file. Right!
A number of people say they readrny letters. Maybe one of
them can remember when that letter appeared. If so maybe .
the library still has a copy ofthatday'spaper.
'
These letters have been a source of dissatisfaction for me
I write the letters in the hope of establishing a dialogue with
the people of Meigs County - I want them to talk back. But
very few ever do.
One of the few people wbo have replied to somethiqg in the
letters IS Fay Walker, the very helpful postmistress in Langsville. Mrs. Walker read I was hunting for books on Dower
arranging, so she gave me some book sale catalogs to help with
my quest.
But what has happened to the rest of Meigs County? I
wrote to you before In the hope of encouraging other teachers
to ask for classroom collections, but none has. 1 Included
Eunice Lovejoy's letter on library service to the handicapped
m the hope that someone besides Donald Whaley and Ruth
Powers would join a committee to determine how we can best
serve Pf&lt;?Ple who are handicapped - by age, physical or
mental unpainnents, distance, reading disabilities, or
whatever ; but so far, none has.
Our libraries and bookmobile exist to serve the people of
Meigs County. It is up to the people to tell us how they want to
be served. As I tell my children, "You have to tell me what you
want. I flunked Basic Mindreading, so don't expect me to

Ah well, there's a new year coro,ing. May it be a good one

entertained thoughts of seeking elective office, possibly
governor of Tennessee, in the future.
Shortly after being .sworn in as head of GSA in the spring
· of 1977, Solomon (like too many other appointed federal
officials with political aspirations~ embarked on a cam·
pa ign to use his government position as a vehicle for
getting his name in the news in home state and. els~where .
After he installed hls personal publicity agent as the
agency's director of pubhc affairs, routine press releases
that previously contained only a passing mention of the
GSA administrator were transformed into announcements
studded with Solomon's name.
In one of the shabbier publicity stunts in his early months
in office, employees of the National Archives (a component
of GSA I were ordered to haul out of storage various items
confiscated from former President Richard M. Nixon
when he was forced to resign .
After Solomon's staff swnmoned reporters to a self·
serving but otherwise meaningless pr,ess conference, he
proudly posed before television cameras with Nixon

Earlier this year, Solomon seized upon news stories
about graft and corruption within GSA, parlaying those
accounts into a major crusade for " honesty, openness,
economy and efficiency in government."
In purple prose drafted for an appearance before a
Senate subcommittee, Solomon referred to " 'the ugly and
disgusting saga ( (haO will further unfold in the days
ahead ."
Testifying before a House subconunittee, he described
GSA as "an agency in the throes of soul-searching change"
needed to "insure that this disgraceful chapter in
American history is not repeated."
The man Solomon appointed to head the corruption
probe prematurely proclaimed the graft at GSA to be " the
biggest money scandal in the history of the federal

JACKSONVILLE , F la.

Jordan is a jack-of-all-trades
- he played first string

The versatile Jordan will

Fuller and actually had
better sta t is tics than his
better-known teammate.
Jordan outpassed Fuller
728 yard to 354, out rushed
him 223 yards to 148 and
kicked 14 extra points and
five field goals to boot.
But when that first year
was over, Jordan was moved
to flanker and Fuller was
given
the
starting
quarterback job.
"I was just too short (l&gt;foot-10) to be a real good
quarterback," Jordan said.
"I wanted to do what was best
for the team. I thought Steve
could do a better job. "
When injuries cropped in
the secondary in 1976, Jordan
was moved to cornerback,
again to help the team. And
when Clemson ' s coaches
looked around fer someone to
return punts , there was
Jordan .
Jordan, who had virtually
rKr experience fielding p\lilts,
remembers the first time he
caught a punt' against
Georgia last year.
"I got hit so hard I ahnost
bit my tongue off," he said.
"But it didn't make me shy.
Now it's the best thing I have
going for me. It's my thing.''
This year Jordan was the
ACC's top plint returner, with
277 yards on 20 returns. In the
kickoff department, Jordan
has returned '1:1 during his
career for 572 yards and a 21yard average.
Jordan has no regrets
about switching over from
offense to defense, e~en
though he realizes that the
offensive stars are the ones
who attract most of the
publicity.
"There Wj!S a time when I
was more effective as an
offensive player," he said.
"To tell the truth, that might
still be true .
"But I'm haJllly on defense.
I really like it now. I try not io
think about the publicity I'd
be getting if I was still a
l quarterback.''
Referring to his kicking,
something he rarely gets to
do now days, Jordsn said,
"kicking is something I just
can · do . If l had the
opportunity to work on it,- I
could be a good kicker."
Jordan is modest about his
multi-faceted football talent.
" I just feel very fortunate
God gave me the ability to do
all the things I can do, and
that I've done the best with
the things He gave me."

Seeking to comfort Michel, Brezina bent over him and tried
to convey the way he felt inside, attempting to explain he knew
exactly bow Michel felt and to soften his extreme distress
somewhat.
.
I caught up with Greg Brezina just befere he went out to
practice Tuesday and asked him whether he had any objection
to tellin:g me what he said to Michel Ia~ Sunday. He said he
didn 't have any objection at all.
" I said to him, 'Look, I don't know if you
understand
what I'm about to say, but it doesn't really matter if you made
the kick or missed it. What matters far more is if you have
peace in yotir heart, which comes through Jesus Christ.'"
Michel nodded without saying anything. All he did was keep
staring at the ground.
"I tried to explain to him what I was trying to say but I
wasn 't sure whether he heard me or not," said Brezina.
Michel heard 6very word Brezina said and told me so over
the !Xione from Philadelphia.
" What bothers me," Michel said, "is that I feelllefl without
really letting him know how I felt about what he did for me. I
never met Greg before. When I see him again, though, I'd like
to thank him for his wordS ... they probably were the most
comforting thing that anyone could say to me. To have done
what he did ... was a real example of a true brother, someone
who took the trouble togo far beyond the meaning of the game .
I believe in Jesus also ."
Michel, who didn't join the Eagles until mid-October, said
without a single exception, all of his teammates were absolutely "magnificent" in their understanding of his fallure .
" I really found out tile true meaning of the word "teammates," he said .
.
As fer Greg Brezina, he also believes in miracles . He feels
the Falcons will upset the Cowboys in Dallas Saturday.
"That will be miracle No. 6," he said.
No matter what, though, Brezina says the most Important
thing that has happened to him since he started his pro loothall
career was his becoming a Chrl.atian seven years ago.
"Doing-that made me believe In biblical prlnclplea," he
explained: "I used to go out and get drunk a cou[ile of times a
week. Now I doo't drink anymore, I don't use profanity
anymore and I have no more racial prejudice . I think I'm a
·
much better man this way."
Mike Michel wouldn't argue that·at all .

NEW- YORK (UPI) - For thooe of you out tbere who are a
little worried about him, this is to assure you Mike Michel Is
Clllling out of it nicely although it goes without saying he won't
be kicking any mote footballs this year.
You remember what bappened the last time he did three
days ago. Poor fellow flubbed it .
What made it worse was that millions all over the country
were watching him on TV and 49,447 others were focused on
him alone at Atlanta Stadium,
· With all those people staring at him 110d only 13 seconds left
In the game, Mike Michel 1\"ied to kick a 33-yard field goal for
the Philadelphia Eagles agains; the Atlanta Falcons and
missed by inches.
Had the kick been good, the Eagles would've won the ball
game, 16-14, and gone on to meet the Rams in Los Angeles this
Sunday. As It turned out, the Falcons were 14-13 winners. So,
they face the Cowboys in Dallas this Salurday and the Eagles
are all finished for the season.
.
Acting purely on instinct, Michel clutched both his ankles
with his hands as If he somehow could Invest some divine
direction into them after the fact. Then he simply kneeled and
kept staring at the ground.
While he was doing that, completely oblivious to all the
pandemonium around him, linebacker Greg Brezina, walked
over to his side. Brezina wanted to console the cornplet~ly
devastated Eagles' punter, who had never tried a field goal for
them befere and had done it now because Nick Mike-Mayer,.

in central Ohio's so-called
'' 22-caliber murders.''

killings, will be tried in
Franklin County Common

George B. Marshall.
The two, who ar~ being held
in the Franklin County jail
under $600,000 bond apiece,
are scheduled to be tried
jointly, but defense attorneys
may ask for separate trials.
Defense attorneys also may
request a

which probably would mean a

The two have been linked to
10 murders that occurred

four in neighboring counties.

DEAR HELEN :
I'm so terribly lonely. I'm '!1, with a 4-year-{)ld daughter and
I've been living with a guy for the past 10 years. He 's 34, afraid
of marriage and final conimitments. I can't talk to him (I just
listen good ). Every lime I tell him something he uses it later
against me. If I try to discuss my fears or goals he puts me
down. It's like I'm slilll7.
Can I change him or am I fighting a losing battle? -L.A.H.
DEARL.:
If you haven't changed this man in 10 years, I'd say you've
already lost the battle. II won't be easy breaking loose, but I
can almost guarantee you'll be muc~ happier once you do. -H.

DEAR HELEN:
Your item on "house·sitting" inspires a question : We've
been live-in caretakers while people are on vacation, but it occurs to us that we could run into something we couldn't handle:
like a lawsuit because of an appliance breakdown or loss due to
burglary.
Is there an organization lhal has guidelines for housesitters,
with perhaps a contract we might copy? -LEE
DEAR LEE :
I don't know of a "Housesitters' Organization," but if you do
this work on a regular basis, it might pay you to hire a lawyer
who would Jraw up a general contract.

Iran's oil production dips to 27 -year low
By SAJID RJZVI
TEHRAN , Iran (UPI l Oil production throughout
Iran plunged to a 27-year low
today and exports were
halted completely f~r the
se.c ond consecutive day,
sources in the disrupted
petroleum industry said .
Just be!~re dawn, imperial
troops stonned a sit4n by
Tehran
University
professors, arrested 100 and
reportedly
beat
two
instructors who said they
received a letter of support
from several prominent
Americans, including former
Attorney General Ramsey
Clark.
Heavy
shooting
was
centered f&lt;r the fifth straighl
day around the U.S. Embassy
in Tehran.
Industry sources said
production of Iran's most
important resource - 'oil dropped below 500,000 barrels
tuday, far less than the
750,000 the nation itself

consumes daily .
The source said productioo
was · the -10west since 1951
when the government moved
to nationalize Iran's oil fields.
Continued violence and
anti-shah demonstrations by
oil workers have forced Iran,
ooce a leading exporter of oil,
to go to neighboring Kuwait
and Saudi Arabia looking for
oil.
The · halt in Iran's oil
production was not expected
to have "any illliilediate,
dramatic effect rn the United
States, which imports less
than 8 percent of its
petroleum from Iran~ But a
prolooged hiatus in Iran's
production could drive up
world oil prices.
As Iran's production
plunged ,
disgruntled
employees at the Tehran
refinery distributed oil and
kerosene free to residents
who lined up with plastic and
metal containers.
Troops
stormed
