BIZ United Press
MT. VERNON, n. Y, April
30.-A 21-year-old radio repair
man confessed today that he
murdered his 18-year-old wife,
carried her body to an isolated
spot near Greensburg and
nearly d week later, returned
to sprinkle it with kerosene
and burn it.
Earl F. PeacoX, slim, WeH-groomed
husband, whose marriage to Doro~
thy Heinzelman, attractive blonde of
BronXyille, N. Y, had gone on the
rocks within a few months. ad-
mitted after a night of questioning,
according to Frank H. Coyne, dis
trict attorney, that he killed his wife
in his apartment the morning after
their first wedding anniversary.
Today, he vowed he had loved the
girl, but had quarreled with her be-
cause she remarked on entering his
apartment:
We'll, this looks like the same
old dump"
Heinzelman said he climaxed the
argument by hitting her over the
head with a heavy weight.

head in towel $50 that the blood
would not get my car dirty" and
carried her out to the automobile,

near GreenSburg, and carried the
body into a clump of weeds several
yards off the highway.

bottle of kerosene and drove to the
Edwards estate.
First, he said in his confession. he
removed his Wife's shoes which ARE
now In her hope chest, and then
sprinkled the body with oil. He set
fire to it and left, he said.
PeacoX asserted that the quarrel
which ended in his wife's death had
arisen and tragically ended before he
had had time to take off his over
coat after they had entered the
apartment together,
Visits Mother-in-Law
When he found her lifeless, he
told the police, he removed his over
coat and turned on the radio, which
he said he kept going until 3 a. m.
then he took the body to the place
where he disposed of it.
Thereafter he wandered about, hs
